Directions:
For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a composition on the topic “Changes in the Way of Communication”. You should write at least 120 words but no more than 180 words.
本題要求考生論述communication方式的變化。communication有多種意思,但是在本題中它的意思是“通信”,即傳遞信息的方式,如書信、電報(bào)、電話等。此外,本題是一篇論說文,所以考生在寫這篇作文時(shí)不能僅列舉通信方式的種種變化,還要分析其原因,做到敘議結(jié)合,以議為主。
本題可以寫成三個(gè)段落。
第一段提出所要討論的話題??梢韵戎赋鋈缃裢ㄐ欧绞秸诮?jīng)歷著巨大的變化,然后列舉一些細(xì)節(jié)使這一論點(diǎn)具體化:我們幾乎每天都能看到有人通過手機(jī)與客戶談生意,或熱戀中的情侶通過視頻電話卿卿我我。
第二段分析通信方式變化的原因。為了使分析深入透徹,最好從兩三個(gè)方面展開。就本題而言,可以先指出科技發(fā)展是通信方式變化的推動(dòng)力量。接著通過今夕對(duì)比論證這一點(diǎn):過去人們的通信主要依靠寫信,信息傳遞緩慢,需要數(shù)月甚至數(shù)年才能得知對(duì)方音信;隨著互聯(lián)網(wǎng)問世,如今人們與地球另一邊的親友眨眼之間就能取得聯(lián)系。隨后指出另一個(gè)推動(dòng)因素是人們生活水平的提高。比如,智能手機(jī)在過去是奢侈品,但如今它在人們的生活中已經(jīng)變得很平常。
本題可以用預(yù)測法結(jié)尾。第三段先指出科技在飛速發(fā)展,人們對(duì)信息的追求是無限的,然后預(yù)測未來人們將會(huì)有更新和效率更高的通訊方式。

Nowadays communication is undergoing dramatic changes. Rarely does a day go by that we do not see a man negotiating a deal with his client over the phone or a lovey-dovey couple billing and cooing on a video call.
Advances in technology are the driving force behind the changes. In the past, people kept in touch with each other mainly through writing letters. It took months or even years for them to hear from each other. However, with the advent of the Internet, people can now get in touch with their relatives or friends on the other side of the globe in a flash. Another contributing factor is the improvement in living standard. For example, the smart phone, once a luxury, has now become commonplace in peoples daily life.
Science and technology are advancing at a blistering pace. And peoples thirst for information knows no limit. Perhaps only time will tell what newer and more efficient means of communication we shall have in the coming decades. (166 words)

Life is full of challenges—injury, illness, unemployment, divorce, or loss of loved ones, to name just a few. Oftentimes, a misfortune befalls us when we least expect it. Therefore, the ability to meet challenges is essential for the younger generation.
Tackling challenges head-on gives a student the opportunity to become the best version of himself. If he doesnt challenge himself, he will never realize what he can become. For instance, dealing with challenges molds a student into an expert communicator, as tackling challenges forces him, in a helpful way, to interact with others. Taking on challenges can also make a mature student. A Stony Brook University study polled over 100 leaders in various fields and concluded that people dont grow when things are easy; they grow only when they face challenges.
An old saying has it that a smooth sea never makes a skillful sailor. Tackling challenges brings out the best in a student and is therefore an essential life skill. It is advised that school authorities encourage students to develop the ability to overcome lifes obstacles. (178 words)
