Topic: With her entry into WTO, China is being plunged into an international competition for talents, and in particular, for higher- level talents. To face this new challenge, China must do something, among other things, to reform her graduate(postgraduate) education system. State your opinion aobut this reform, and give the solid supporting details to your viewpoint. gF@51K
With China’s entry into WTO, she is facing a lot of chances and challenges in many aspects. As far as talents are concerned, China is being plunged into an international competition for talents, especially for higher-level talents. In order to adapt this new challenge, China must do something, among other things, to reform her graduate education system. w
a!g/\
In my opinion, we must make some reform and adjustment in graduate education system in many aspects as follows. First of all, from the view of the government, it must adjust its policy of using talents, especially higher-level talents. For example, it may provide many privileges for them. q^
{Xn-G
Secondly, for the viewpoint of the universities, they should adjust their constructure of curriculum. They should pay more attention to the cultivation of graduate’s capability. They should take effective measures to direct their educational goal from exam-oriented education to education for all-round development. Finally, as far as personnel is concerned, a student should pay more attention to the learning of all kinds of knowledge to meet the needs of society. z:hY{/-
In a word, it is high time that we reformed the graduate education system. If we do not make some changes in the graduate education system, we may be failure in the international competition. So we must reform our graduate education system. (219 words) +1Ha,Ok

三 历年考试中存在的典型问题分析 t{\FV@R
1. 不会审题,偏离主题。 #%4
-zNS
2. 汉语思维,逐字翻译。常见考生用汉语构思文章,同时将汉语句子硬译成英语。 _L mDF8Q(
3. 用词搭配不当。 %t&n%dhJ
4. 词汇量小,表达困难,拼写错误。 *]Nd
I
5. 句法逻辑关系混乱。例如:Our English class often told stories.正确的应是: Yyq:5V!
Stories are often told on our English class. .'md `@t
6.不会用关联词转承上下句和段落。关联词即过渡词,使用过渡词,可使上下句子和段落合理衔接,承上启下,使表达合乎逻辑,常见过渡词如as far as, however, well, though, in spite of 。 Bb^CukS:
7. 语法错误。 主要表现为: SomA`y+ERn
(1) 分不清及物与不及物动词,例如:rise, raise; hear, listen e"u=4nk
(2) 被动语态和主动语态的误用,例如: interesting和 interested xEN
""*Q
(3) 词类混淆,将动词或形容词误用作名词,将名词或动词误用作形容词,例如: gVM9*3LH6
benefit 和beneficial; difficult和 difficulty; pleasure 和pleased等。 1ID0'j$
(4) 混淆可数名词和不可数名词,例如: help,practice等。 %./vh=5)
(5) 冠词、情态动词、介词、代词等方面的错误,例如: 5;wA7@
a English book, should did, must done 等。 @^8tk3$Y

四.如何写出漂亮的文章 nUi
4!|r
文章要内容切题,表达清楚,意思连贯,语言比较规范。这就要求考生在写作时,把握如下方面: vtyk\e)
1. 统一性(Unity) VG*Tdaua~
内容切题,实际上就是要求文章统一性。所谓统一性,就是指短文必须围绕着主题扩展,不能多中心。统一性表现在句子、段落和篇章三个层次上。我们写汉语文章的要求是首先不能跑题,实际上就是对统一性的要求。 t|Cp<k]B
2. 连贯性 (Coherence) "'us.t.
指句子与句子之间、段落与段落之间的衔接要自然通畅,主要体现在文章的逻辑发展顺序和过渡词语的运用上。 |~b.rKQt[
1) 逻辑顺序 x8I=I"Sp
按照时间先后,或空间位置的相互关系,我们可以写出眉目清晰、符合逻辑的段落或文章。叙述文体多采用时间顺序,描写文体中空间顺序更常见。高潮形成系指按照其重要性或严重性安排各个发展点(指段落)或发展段(指文章)的顺序,这种语篇发展方法在描写、叙述、说明和议论文中均常出现。英语语篇的逻辑顺序安排一般是先谈最次要的内容,继而谈较为重要的内容,最后再谈最重要的内容,从而形成文章高潮。 6/^$SWd2
2) 过渡词语的运用—— 语篇的外在连贯手段 km1{Oh
有时,单靠逻辑上的连贯对英语语篇来说是很不够的,因而过渡词语的运用必不可少。汉语的连贯属于“意合”,英语的连贯属“形合”,而借助过渡词语取得语篇的连贯是形合法最突出的特点。所以,在英语文章内,诸如等过渡词语特别多。它们的运用挑明了句子与句子之间、段落与段落之间的关系,使文章更加显得连贯。 tbHU(#~
由于受汉语“意合”的影响,中国学生常忽略过渡词语的运用。所以中国学生在进行英语写作时必须对此给以足够的重视。 uK6`3lCD

3. 语言规范 J;|r00M
语言的规范涉及面广。小至遣词造句,大到语篇结构,无不体现语言使用的质量。根据近年博士生入学英语考试的作文试卷统计,许多考生未熟练掌握造句技能甚至不能保证单词拼写正确、句子无重大语法错误。因此要多读多看英语报刊和原著,从中学习语言用法,没有仔细阅读过、理解过的东西千万不要在作文中使用,切忌中国式英语。
