(20 points)　　量体裁衣　　范文1：　　This cartoon is silly, and yet compelling: a large customer holds a hopelessly small piece of cloth as the tailor carefully measures. Such an image suggests that one needs to consider practical reality in the pursuance of goals. Merely acting on one's desires, while ignoring the facts at hand, cannot lead to success.　　The fact that currently there are more graduates than jobs reminds us of the importance of rational thinking. Every year approximately 3 million students graduate from universities and begin looking for work. Many of them fail to find suitable employment because there are simply not enough opportunities to accommodate such great numbers of graduates. In addition, however, one might also cite flawed individual assessment as a reason.　　In order to create a realistic target for one's future, one must make rational decisions and prepare accordingly. A student who aims to be a surgeon, for example, must take care to acquire opportunities to do clinical practice and gain sufficient knowledge. In other words, customers would do well to take accurate measurements before purchasing their fabric. A small piece of cloth cannot adequately clothe a large person.　　二、金字塔是由一块块石头积累成的　　Directions:　　Study the following picture carefully and write an essay in which you should　　1) describe the picture,　　2) interpret its meaning, and　　3) support your view with examples.??　　You should write about 160—200 words neatly on ANSWER SHEET 2. (20 points)　　金字塔是由一块块石头积累成的　　范文1：　　One glance at a pyramid can leave the viewer in awe of its beauty and splendor. Upon closer examination, however, one might be surprised to discover that such a grandiose structure is composed entirely of ordinary stones.　　Most people are familiar with the proverb: Rome was not built in a day. An object as grand as a pyramid is likewise not so quickly or easily constructed. Just as the greatness of the city of Rome is due to the combination of its smaller parts, a pyramid is only as strong as the stones it is comprised of. The image of a pyramid reminds us that great success is in fact an accumulation of small achievements.　　History proves that many famous artists and scientists are only successful because of their continued efforts, even after numerous failures. One might recall Leonardo DaVinci's drawing of an egg, Wang Xi Zhi practicing handwriting, or Thomas Edison inventing the light bulb, for example. The fable that tells us that even water can eventually pierce through stone also points to the importance of patience and diligence. We should take such stories and histories into account and remember the importance of fundamentals; remember that one can build a pyramid only if one is willing to work with small stones. People would be wise to abandon rash inclinations and instead try in earnest. Perseverance is sure to lead to success.　　三、贫穷和富裕　　Study the following drawing carefully and write an essay in which you should　　1) describe the drawing,　　2) interpret its meaning, and　　3) put forward your relevant suggestions.　　You should write about 160—200 words neatly ANSWER SHEET 2. (20 points)　　参考范文　　As is vividly betrayed in the drawing above, a person shakes off poverty by way of rational laws and regulations. The drawing gives us much food for thought and means a lot.　　The implied meaning of the drawing can be illustrated as follows. To begin with, poverty in our life can be totally changed. When we encounter poverty, we must establish our confidence to shake off poverty. In other words, we must look ahead and try our best like the person in the drawing. Having enough courage to face challenge is the subjective condition of shaking off poverty. What’s more, rational laws and regulations set up by our government is the precondition of shaking off poverty. Since we are living in a society ruled by laws, nothing can be guaranteed without the rational laws and regulations established by our government. In one word, one’s confidence and relevant rational laws and regulations are the right ways to affluence.　　My suggestions concerning poverty shaking-off can be illustrated as follows. In the first place, our government should set up more rational laws and regulations, especial preferential policies, for those still living in poverty. Besides, the people living in poverty should not lose hope and should instead take immediate action to take advantage of the rational laws and regulations in order to shake off poverty.

(20 points)　　人生处处面临选择　　范文1：　　This simple picture represents a situation that every person must face:　　when approaching a junction, which direction should one choose? Most viewers can empathize with the sense of hesitation and uncertainty embodied in such an image. Without exception, everyone has to make choices in life, whether they concern school, career, or love. While some choices are simple, one cannot avoid the task of making difficult decisions.　　Choices are often directly related to one's happiness. University students, for example, face a hard and crucial decision upon graduating. Many students have difficulty deciding whether to continue studying or begin developing a career. Every individual is different, and one must take the factors of one's personal life into consideration. In addition to an awareness of specific circumstances, however, making the right choice also depends on correct appraisal of oneself.　　In order to choose correctly, therefore, one must be both realistic and self aware. Furthermore, once having made a decision, one should seriously accept and pursue the path one has chosen, and strive towards the realization of one's goal with spirit.
