Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a short essay on the topic Studying Abroad. You should write at least 120 words following the outline given below:
1) 目前很多中国学生出国留学，
2) 出国留学的好处，
3) 我的看法。
Nowadays, going abroad for studies is enjoying a striking popularity among adolescents. Importance should be attached to studying abroad.
There are a great many advantages of studying overseas. First and foremost, living and studying abroad offers students a different perspective of the world. On a university campus, international students are likely to encounter their counterparts from various countries and areas and are exposed to diverse ideas and values. What is more, overseas experience is the best opportunity for the real-life use of foreign languages. There is no better opportunity to improve second-language skills than living in the country in which it is spoken.
Generally peaking, it is my view that although going abroad is expensive and perhaps painful, the payoff is worthwhile. In the first place, in addition to knowledge, overseas students can gain precious experiences that those who stay at home will never have. Furthermore, overseas experience, frustrating and painful as it may be, is conducive to
the growth of adolescents.

Nowadays, there are an increasing number of college students who are doing sales
promotion. On the weekends, when you are sleeping or reading, you will be disturbed by their knocks on the door. The commodities they promote cover a variety of items, such as toothbrush, shampoo, pens, notebooks, etc.
Different people hold different views on this phenomenon. As for me, I am against it for two reasons. One reason is that their frequent unwelcome visits in my spare time make me annoyed and my quiet life disturbed. The other is that many of the commodities they sell to us are fake ones and in bad quality.
To sum up, I do not like this way of sales-promotion. If I were in their position, I would not have bothered other schoolfellows. It is better for them to find a part-time job in a store and broaden their experience through the contact with potential customers.
参考译文
论大学生做推销
现在，越来越多的大学生们去做推销活动。到了周末，当你正在睡觉或者读书的时候，就会被他们的敲门声打断。他们推销的商品五花八门、各式各样，有牙刷、洗发水、钢笔和笔记本等。
对这一现象，不同的人看法也不尽相同。就我而言，我有两点反对的理由。一个理由是，这些不速之客在我业余时间的频繁造访使我很生气，打乱了我宁静的生活。另一个理由是他们出售给我们的有很多都是假冒伪劣商品。
总之，我不喜欢这样的销售方式。如果我是他们的话，我不会打扰其他同学。他们最好是在一家商店找一份兼职工作，并通过与潜在的客户打交道积累经验。
