24. A Letter Declining a Job Offer
December 24, 2005 Dear Sir or Madam:
I am responding to your job offer on December 20, 2005. I was informed that I would be offered the position as an interpreter for your company. I cordially appreciate your trust and I am much obliged to you for providing me with this valuable opportunity.
However, I have to tell you that I cannot accept it. The major reason is that I don’t think I am the most appropriate candidate for this post. As a non-English major, though my written and spoken English are outstanding than most of my peers, I am not well trained in translation, not to mention interpretation, which, I believe is highly demanding. Maybe my performance in the oral examination has misled you. Actually, I am more interested and more competent in my own major, that is, program designing. Last but not least, I happened to have been offered such a position with another company.
Nonetheless, I, again, want to express my sincere gratefulness and I earnestly apologize for any inconvenience hereby caused. Finally, I hope you can find the ideal candidate as soon as possible.
Best regards.
Yours sincerely
Li Ming

26. A Letter to the Editor of a Newspaper
June 20th, 2004
Dear Mr. / Miss Editor,
I am a student from Tsinghua University and I am writing to you about my experience of buying a dictionary and my complaint about the service of a bookstore.
It was about a month ago. I went to a bookstore nearby the university to buy an English dictionary. It was only after I paid for the dictionary and returned to school that I found some pages were missing. But when I went back to the bookstore to tell them about the matter, they said that I should have checked the dictionary before I left the store. According to them, it was my fault and they hold no responsibility for the whole matter.
What I want to say is that sincerity and enthusiasm are vital to the survival of service industries in such a market economy featured by fierce competition. It was quite easy for them to change the dictionary for me but they refused to do so. They will lose all customers if they persist in doing so. I hope that this letter can draw the attention of the whole society and that the problem can be solved as soon as possible.
Best regards.
Yours sincerely
Li Ming
27. A Letter to the University President about the Canteen Service on Campus
January 12th, 2002 the canteen on campus.
To be frank, I am rather disappointed at the food quality, price and service in the canteen. First, the dishes are scarcely well cooked and most of them taste the same. Secondly, most of the dishes there are priced so high that some students cannot even afford them. Thirdly, the service in the canteen is far from satisfying and the inside of the canteen always seem untidy.
To solve the problem, I suggest that another canteen be built and a mechanism of competition be introduced between the old and the new. Besides, both the canteens should be subject to the students' supervision.
Dining is an everyday issue for students. It may affect their academic performance. Therefore, Li Ming

Dear Xiao Wang,
I’m thrilled to receive your letter on May 10th, in which you suggested our spending a week together here in Beijing. I do think it’s a fantastic idea and I believe we’ll have a good time
together.
As to the arrangement of the holiday, I suggest the following activities. For the first three days I will show you around our campus and some places of interest downtown Beijing, such as the Forbidden City, the Temple of Heaven and the Summer Palace. For the following two days, we will visit the Great Wall, the Ming Tombs and other historic sites around the city. In the last two days, we will be back in the city and tour some famous business streets, where you can do some shopping. What do you say?
It will be quite hot here in Beijing, so remember to get prepared for the weather. And, last but not least, don’t forget to bring your camera with you, for you will find so many scenes worth photographing here. I will be longing for your arrival.

29.The Digital Age(20xx年12月六级真题)
There is no denying the fact that we have entered a digital age, with digital products used increasingly widely in people’s life, work and study. Taking a look around, we can find examples too numerous to list. The most striking ones might be digital cameras, digital videos and digital television.
It goes without saying that these products have benefited us substantially. With digital cameras, we can take almost as many photos as we like, as long as we have access to a computer to store them. Besides, we can delete those pictures we dislike without worrying about waste of film. Again, with digital television, we can enjoy more channels and scenes of higher quality than provided by conventional ones.
However, just as every coin has two sides, these digital products may also exert a negative influence on us. For instance, many students indulge themselves in online games and performed badly in their study; others plagiarize by copying articles on the Internet.
Therefore, digital products should be viewed as two-edged swords, which present us with both conveniences and troubles. But we should not give up eating for fear of choking. The best policy, as I see it, is to further develop these products and make a more sensible use of them.
30.The Celebration of Western Festivals(20xx年12月老题型真题)
No one can have failed to notice the fact that an increasing number of Chinese are fond of celebrating some Western festivals today. For instance, on Valentine’s Day, many people give flowers or chocolate to the one they love. Another case in point is Christmas. It seems that people around the country now love to celebrate the festival.
A number of factors account for the phenomenon mentioned above, but the following might be the critical ones. In the first place, due to the policy of reform and opening-up, Chinese people tend to know more about Western culture and be influenced by it. Secondly, some businessmen wish to make money by encouraging people to celebrate those Western festivals. Last but not least, as traditional Chinese festival lose their attraction, many people tend to find joy in Western festivals.
Though we need not criticize people celebrating Western festivals, nor can we stop them, we have to beware of the danger behind it. While enjoying the atmosphere brought by those Western customs, we might well lose our own tradition and identity.
31.The Importance of Reading Classics(20xx年12月新题型真题)
Reading classics plays a vital role in a person's growth. By reading classic works, either Chinese or foreign, one can learn a great deal about history, geography, politics, wars and customs. Besides, as these classics are the outstanding representatives of human language, reading them can enormously improve our ability to read and write and to inherit cultural traditions.
However, a diminishing number of people would like to read classics now. A variety of factors may have contributed to this phenomenon, but the following are the critical one. In the first place, as the pace of life and work quickens, people can find little time to indulge themselves in thick and serious works. They would rather read light and easy magazines or surf the Internet and do online reading. In the second place, most classics depict things far away from our real life, which makes reading them seem irrelevant.
As college students, we should shoulder the burden of inheriting and developing cultural heritage. Therefore, it is essential that we should make plans to read classics regularly. Besides, we should try to influence people around us into reading them.
32. How to Succeed in a Job Interview? (20xx年12月真题)
It is undeniable that an interview plays a critical role in job-hunting. Through the interview, an employer can meet their future employees in person and know them more thoroughly. Sometimes the written form of examination cannot reveal candidates' real talents or problems. Besides, it is also beneficial for candidates to take an interview. They will have a chance to make their employers understand them better.
A number of factors contribute to the success in a job interview. Personally, I think job-hunters should pay attention to the following points. First, they should be well prepared professionally. That means they should be ready to answer all the important questions concerning their future job. Secondly, they should express themselves confidently and honestly. Last but not least, they should pay enough attention to their appearances, that is, they should be properly dressed.
As far as I am concerned, I will get academically ready first, and then be relaxed to answer all the questions. I will also dress up and behave properly. I do believe that so long as I make good preparations, I will perform well in the interview.
33. Don't Hesitate to Say No (19xx年1月真题)
As a general rule, people like to help others, but there are occasions when you should say no to requests for favors. For instance, it is better to refuse when a child pesters you for sweet food and drinks or for too many toys. Another example is when a relative asks you to use your influence to get him or her a bank loan or a work promotion.
However, we cannot ignore the fact that many people are reluctant to say no. They feel that if they turn down a request from a relative or friend, they will cause ill-feeling within the family or
become unpopular with their acquaintances. A notable case in point is when the boss asks them to do something which they feel is unreasonable.
It is important to keep in mind that not saying no when you should say no can sometimes have harmful consequences. If children are given everything they ask for, not only may their health be damaged, but they may grow up selfish and spoilt. Again, in the long run it is kinder to refuse to lend money to a person who has a gambling or alcoholism problem.
34. The Career I Pursue (19xx年6月真题)
Unlike many other college students, I thought long and hard about my future before embarking on my studies. I then sought advice from my teachers and my parents about the best life path for me to choose. Finally, I settled on journalism as the career which would best suit my temperament.
Although the financial rewards has two particular attractions for me. First, by supplying people with the information they need every day, it fulfills a socially useful function. Second, it is a job full of novelty, unlike most occupations, which involve simply routine work.
In order to prepare myself for my future career in the world of the media—whether it be working for a newspaper or a magazine, or in the sphere of radio and television—I have carefully selected my college course. My basic fields of study are Mass Communications and Economics. At the same time, having an eye to reporting events worldwide, I am taking extra classes to improve my English and reading widely to increase my general knowledge.
35. Motorcycles and City Traffic (19xx年1月真题)
In recent years, the number of motorcycles on city roads in china has been increasing. This is because they are a cheap of transportation for people in a country where motor cars are expensive for most families. In addition, motorcycles are convenient for driving and parking on crowded city streets.
However, motorcycles have disadvantages too. They pollute the atmosphere with smoke and noise. They are also a more dangerous from of transportation than motor cars, because the motorcycle is less stable and there is little protection for the driver in the case of an accident.
It seems to me that city governments should restrict the number of motorcycles allowed on the roads. This would limit the pollution they cause, but at the same time help to relieve traffic congestion. There should be a balance between the advantages and disadvantages of the motorcycle as a form of city transport.
36. Looking Forward to the 21st Century (19xx年6月真题)
I am eagerly waiting the arrival of the 21st century, because it promises exciting new developments in science and technology. First of all, it is likely that telecommunications will expand by leaps and bounds. Secondly, more progress will be made in medicine, and thirdly the coming century will see mankind really come to grips with environmental pollution.
As far as communications is concerned, e-mail and the Internet will probably become available all over the globe, enhancing mutual understanding and making wars less frequent. Advances in medicine will enable us to live longer and healthier lives, and science and technology
will provide more tools for tackling the pollution problem.
However, there will be new challenges to face in the new century. Population will continue to grow, putting pressure on the food supply. Moreover, there is a danger that people will become too dependent on machines to look after them, leading to a weakening of their spiritual lives.
I intend to prepare myself for the 21st century by keeping abreast of the latest developments in science and technology. But at the same time, I will not neglect cultural pursuits.
37. Man Is to Survive (19xx年1月真题)
The human race is facing problems which are getting more acute as time goes on. The most serious are shortages of resources, environmental pollution, and the pressure of population growth. In turn, these problems cause poverty, disease and wars.
Pessimists say that the human race is facing extinction. This is because it is now too late to solve these problems, according to them. They predict that resources will become exhausted sooner or later, that pollution will eventually poison the planet, and that unchecked population growth will cause mass starvation.
But I do not agree that mankind is doomed. In the past, the human race has always shown that it has the wisdom to overcome any threat to its survival. In the future, too, mankind will survive by using its wisdom to find a way out of its problems.
