這篇大學(xué)英語四級作文是一篇說明文,要求考生闡述出國留學(xué)的各種挑戰(zhàn)。這種類型作文只需把問題說清楚即可,沒有多少議論。大學(xué)英語四、六級作文主要考察學(xué)生的英語表達(dá)能力,對觀點(diǎn)和材料是否新穎沒有要求,因此我們在闡述出國留學(xué)的挑戰(zhàn)時(shí),最好根據(jù)自己的知識儲(chǔ)備,選擇自己最熟悉的方面來寫,不要為了別出心裁而去寫自己沒有把握的東西,那等于自己給自己出難題。
這篇作文可以寫成三段。引言段先指出現(xiàn)在有越來越多的中國學(xué)生夢想出國留學(xué),然后指出到國外留學(xué)也有其挑戰(zhàn),最后指出如果你打算出國留學(xué),需要為之做好準(zhǔn)備。主體段詳細(xì)闡述出國留學(xué)的各種挑戰(zhàn)。中國學(xué)生在國外留學(xué)時(shí)可能會(huì)遇到各種各樣的挑戰(zhàn),比如語言障礙、飲食差異、文化差異、種族歧視、治安欠佳、教育模式迥異等。我們不妨挑選最常見的兩個(gè)方面來寫:思念家人,語言障礙。在闡述出國留學(xué)的挑戰(zhàn)的同時(shí),我們最好還順便給出應(yīng)對這個(gè)挑戰(zhàn)的建議。比如,說到思念家人時(shí),不妨建議嘗試一下徒步旅行、游泳或者登山等活動(dòng),以讓自己的生活充實(shí)起來不再想家;說到語言障礙時(shí),不妨指出只要把自己沉浸在這種語言當(dāng)中,語言障礙問題不久便會(huì)消失。本文可以用建議法結(jié)尾,先指出有挑戰(zhàn)才會(huì)成長,因?yàn)槟憧倳?huì)把挑戰(zhàn)轉(zhuǎn)化為學(xué)習(xí)的機(jī)會(huì),最后預(yù)測一旦戰(zhàn)勝挑戰(zhàn),留學(xué)生活就會(huì)一帆風(fēng)順。下面請看范文:
A growing number of Chinese students now dream of studying abroad. However, studying in a foreign country, though a rewarding experience, comes with its own share of challenges. If you plan to study overseas, here are two top challenges to be prepared for.
The first challenge is homesickness. You will find yourself missing your folks back home like crazy, especially in the first few months abroad. Don’t worry. You can try such activities as hiking, swimming or mountain-climbing to keep yourself busy. Another challenge is the language barrier. You may be fluent in the language of your host country, but you will still have a hard time being understood and understanding the locals. Take it easy. As long as you immerse yourself in the language, this problem will disappear very soon.
It is said that without obstacles you cannot grow, for you can always turn a challenge into a learning opportunity. Actually, once you triumph over the challenges, your overseas studying will be smooth sailing. (165 words)

2018年12月大學(xué)英語六級考試的三道作文試題屬于解決問題型,涉及如何平衡學(xué)習(xí)與課外活動(dòng)、工作與休閑、工作責(zé)任與個(gè)人興趣。這種類型的作文要求考生闡述某個(gè)問題的解決方法。比如,本題要求考生闡述如何平衡工作與休閑。我們在認(rèn)真審題后就會(huì)發(fā)現(xiàn),這道題目既不是要論述工作的重要性,也不是要論述休閑的重要性,而是要論述怎樣安排好工作和休閑,以利于自己的身心健康。
本文可以寫成三個(gè)段落。引言段引用本文討論的話題,我們可以先借用英國前首相丘吉爾的論述,列舉出三類不會(huì)平衡工作與休閑的人,然后指出如果你覺得難以平衡工作與休閑,下面的建議可能對你有用。主體段提出保持工作和休閑之間平衡的具體建議。由于現(xiàn)代人大多過度專注于工作,以至于工作與休閑失衡,影響到自己的生活質(zhì)量乃至身心健康。所以本文的寫作重點(diǎn)可放在如何安排休閑活動(dòng),以避免把自己累垮。具體可以從三個(gè)方面展開:第一,劃清職業(yè)生活和個(gè)人生活之間的界限。告訴同事自己下班后不會(huì)回復(fù)與工作有關(guān)的短信。第二,把工作留給工作。下班后不妨去健身房鍛煉,或者和親友一起出去玩。第三,給自己留一些個(gè)人時(shí)間做自己最喜歡的事,比如讀讀書、看看電視或者泡個(gè)熱水澡。結(jié)尾段可以先指出平衡工作與休閑并不容易,然后指出能夠把工作和個(gè)人生活結(jié)合起來對于一個(gè)人的身心健康至關(guān)重要。因?yàn)樗自捳f得好:只工作不玩耍,聰明的人也變傻。下面請看范文:
Sir Winston Churchill divided human beings into three classes: those who toiled to death, those who are worried to death, and those who are bored to death. If you are one of those who find it hard balancing work and leisure, here are some pointers for you.
First, draw a line between your professional and personal life. For example, tell your colleagues that you won’t answer work-related messages after work. Or else you will end up working 24/7 and burning yourself out. Second, forget your work after you clock off. You may as well spend your leisure time working out at a gym or hanging out with your family or friends. Third, set aside some me time. Always find time to do what you enjoy most – be it reading a book, watching your favorite television show or indulging in a nice hot bath.
Finding a healthy balance between work and leisure is not easy. But the ability to successfully combine work and personal life is essential for your physical and mental wellbeing, as all work and no play makes Jack a dull boy. (184 words)
