3、 may result in, a loss of marks. Mrok (Japan): I would like to say that it is also a trend of a group of people who become rich from being poor in a short time. So, most of them are eager to show their success in the economic aspect in order to earn respect from others, and luxury goods seem to be t

4、he best symbol of success. Another reason for this is the highly-valued competition in Chinese society, as well as in other East Asian neighbors. That is why those people buy Prada by day but sleep in a 2-star hotel by night (they dont want to be the loser in the competition). It also happened in Ja

5、pan 20 years ago. Gaoshuangera (China): As a student, I dont understand why we need a LV bag, especially if purchasing it with our parents money. Also, I dont like the idea that people look down on me if I dont have a LV bag. If you are really rich and you can afford a LV hag easily, why not? But if

6、 you want it just because of what others say, it is just xurongxin (vanity) as we say in Chinese. Himani (India): I think its true not only of China but also of many other Asian countries like India because these countries have very high import taxes. Also its a matter of status symbol when people b

7、rag about visiting abroad and going shopping in the US or in the UK. Felix (the US): China has imposed high import tariffs on luxuries, partly for the protectionism of their local productswhich is understandable. When living in Hong Kong and Singapore, I used to wonder why the mainland Chinese would

8、 be so ready to spend big money on luxury goods when traveling. I now understand that their purchasing behavior is partly due to practical considerations (cheaper, more varieties, better service, etc.) and partly due to pent-up demand. Xilaren (Greece): I had the chance to visit luxury shops in Athe

9、ns, which had at least 15 Chinese women and men buying Gucci handbags. What is surprising to me is that none of them bought luxury shoes or clothes. Wearing a Rolex and carrying a Gucci handbag require matching shoes and clothes. Otherwise the luxury products are a failure. This kind of buying shows

10、 me something saddening. Do these people care only about showing off by holding a Gucci handbag and do not care about clothes and shoes simply because nobody can recognize the brand of the shoes? If this is the case, then it is really saddening. JGVk (the UK): I have met many Chinese visitors in Lon

11、don. One of the main reasons why they buy many luxury items, instead of one or two, is simple. Many of them are first-time overseas tourists. In China and in most of Asia, there is a social obligation to buy presents of equal quality for friends and relatives. Over time, this obligation may disappea

12、rtherefore, their shopping habits will change over the next few years. 答案:高分范文 Why Do Chinas Rich Spend Big on Luxury Goods? It is said that people from Asia, mostly Chinese, account for almost half of the luxury consumption in the world, which is more than the Americans and Europeans combined. Peop

13、le home and abroad look at this phenomenon from different perspectives. Some conclude that this behavior is vanity-driven. The newly rich Chinese are taking luxury goods as the symbol of success, which is enhanced by the highly-valued competition. Actually, this kind of shopping spree has aroused so

14、me uncomfortable feelings of the under-rich people. Others attribute the trend to Chinas customs, which imposes very high import tariffs for regional protectionism, and some other practical benefits such as more varieties and better service. Another sensible analysis is that the crazily-shopping Chi

15、nese are just buying gifts for their friends and relatives. Anyway, westerners couldnt understand why Chinese people are buying so many luxurious bags, which dont match their clothes and shoes. They deem this kind of shopping habits as immature consumption. Putting this phenomenon into the historica

16、l context, I understand Chinese peoples shopping motivation and I think it will change over time. First, Chinese peoples shopping demand tor luxuries has long been restrained. It is very understandable for a newly rich country. Back to decades ago, Americans impressed the whole world with their vani

17、ty and wealth, so did Japanese years later. Second, the cultivation of rational consumption and good taste takes time. The newly rich Chinese have just gained their fortune, which they are still learning to handle. If the money is earned in legal ways and through their own efforts, what is it to bla

18、me for? At last, the trend will surely change with the regulations on import taxes. The turning point will surely come after the establishment of various free trade areas that China is initiating both in domestic big cities and with neighboring countries. Therefore, I do believe the impression that

19、Chinese tourists have left onto the world will one day be changed. Westerners should thank the Chinese for saving their economy out of depression and the under-rich Chinese should look at the others wealth in a more rational way. 問(wèn)題:2. 題目要求：A campaign calling for the death penalty for child traffick

20、ers has recently gone viral on Chinas online social networks. Do you agree or disagree that child trafficking should be a death penalty offense? Do you think death penalty deters child traffickers? The following are opinions from different sides. Read the excerpts carefully and write your response i

Marks will be awarded for content relevance, content sufficiency, organization and language quality. Failure to follow the above instructions may result in a loss of marks. Pnp Child trafficker

22、s must be sentenced to death because their greed brings pain and lasting misery to parents whose kids they traffic in! If you know a bit of the suffering of those parents who lost their kids to traffickers, their sleepless nights, their nightmares thinking of their beloved kids, their lives being tu

23、rned upside down, and being unable to lead a normal life, you probably wont suggest such a soft approach! The death penalty is a very powerful deterrent; traffickers would think twice before they embark on this heinous crime against humanity! To postulate that it will endanger the lives of the kids,

24、 and therefore the death penalty should not be applied, is to cave in to the traffickers! I feel sorry for the kids and their parents. Smuffy Death penalty will not deter the child traffickers, since child trafficking is such a lucrative trade. Instead, it will pose a serious threat to the child vic

25、tims. China should reform its adoption system, thus forcing some families to resort to legal measures to adopt a child. Seneca I am opposed to any killing of people, legal or otherwise. Death penalty solves no problem and only helps barbarity gain acceptance in the population. It is utterly devastat

26、ing to lose ones child to a kidnapper who resells him to someone else. But have you ever taken the causes of this crime into consideration? China has enacted and enforced the one child family policy. This policy is quite reasonable against a background of demographics and economics, but it is unnatu

27、ral and it also creates untold sufferings. What if a woman miscarries and loses her ability to conceive again? What if a couple have waited too long for their child to come? They have little option but to visit the grey and black market in search of a child. The question as to how to judicially trea

28、t child abductors and traffickers is a different one. Many crimes are committed out of sheer avarice; killing in retaliation does not make people more moral. Just think how lightly some corrupt officials get off the hook and you can understand that the death penalty is no solution. The countries in

29、West Europe that have no death penalty have the lowest crime rates while the countries with death penalty see their crime rates go from bad to worse. Becky5512 Every child is the treasure of his parents. If you are in a situation where you are trapped in losing your child and unfortunately getting t

30、he news about the slack crackdown on those traffickers, how painful and desperate will you be? Definitely, effective measures should be taken to block the channel of trafficking children. Seanboyce88 You may think that offenders would think twice but an American research has shown that, the death pe

31、nalty is an awful deterrent. It is simply an act of vengeance. I believe that the use of punishment is to teach someone right from wrong, and that most actions stem from societal issues. If poor people had better wages, maybe they wouldnt have to be child traffickers to pay the bills. Killing for ve

32、ngeance just creates a spiral of hate. Nothing is gained from it. 答案:高分范文 Should Child Traffickers Be Sentenced to Death? For the first time in the history of the mass media, one issue has been initiated to an unprecedented controversy on the justification of death penalty against child traffickers.

33、 Should the traffickers be sentenced to death? It needs a rational analysis of the root of the offence instead of a harsh punishment for the sake of blind love. All the evil may be ascribed to the traditional family values such as gender discrimination, blood relationship and providing for the aged.

34、 One argument in its favor is that death penalty can extinguish peoples indignation against the offenders and presumably ease the anguish suffered by the parents. While, some individuals contend that it cannot deter the criminals even with the cost of their lives, as trafficking is so lucrative that

35、 it is too difficult for them to resist the temptation. It some extreme eases, the traffickers even murder the victims out of fear or fury. Actually, any conviction for death sentence just surrenders human beings reason, following an old and bloody patternan eye for an eye, a tooth for a toothwhich

36、satisfies the suppressed lust for violence with violence itself. What is required is to dig up the causes of the offence. As a general rule for economics says, where there is a demand, there is a supply. The desire for purchasing a child in the black market has not been given adequate attention nor

37、reasonable account. Traditionally in China, some couples are dying for baby boys as men are supposed to have the final say in the patriarchal society. What is more, some women suffer from infertility, which means they cant fulfil their responsibility for continuing the family blood and therefore hav

38、e a miserable old life with no one to rely on. Therefore, it needs a technological breakthrough in the field of fertility to treat the biological failure of pregnancy and more importantly, the reform in the realm of social welfare is in an urgent need to construct a more reliable system which benefi

39、ts the old and poor. Calls for death penalty for child trafficking would only divert peoples attention to increasingly intensifying resentment, rather then a genuine investigation into the deep causes of the evil. 問(wèn)題:3. 題目要求：Recently, one local committee voted (5-2) to pass a measure requiring distr

40、ibutors of bottled or canned sugary, drinks to put a warning label on their beverage, ls putting warning labels on sugary drinks a good idea or a bad one?

41、summarize briefly the different opinions; 2. give your comment. Marks will be awarded for content relevance, content sufficiency, organization and language quality. Failure to follow the above instructions may result in a loss of marks. Loveboy56 With the labels, we can know, if we need to, the amou

42、nt that we drink. If we have the labels then doctors can know if the amount that we drink is dangerous; with this we can protect our bodies from sugar defects, brain defects, and blood clots. If you disagree, then think about all the people who die because of sugar. Im not saying that sodas and cand

43、ies are bad; I am saying that having sodas and candies every day can harm you. Krampus People should know what they are drinking when they are drinking sodas! I do not get it! When you purchase a soda, you should know that there is a lot of sugar in it. In the end, I just do not believe these warnin

44、gs are going to stop any one from drinking their favorite soda anyway. We have all been taught that sugar is bad, so to reiterate that is pointless and it is a waste of money for those soda brands. Even a moderately educated blind person should understand that when they purchase soda. And if you sti

45、ll need to check if there is sugar in Coca Cola, there is something called nutrition facts. Simply turn the can and you will find a white box. Yes, that is it. Congratulations! You did it! Or do we want to put a sugar warning in the front to save people the extra effort to turn a can? Pet 4050 Many

46、people dont know what they are putting in their body, so with the help of the warning labels there can be less people drinking sugary drinks and less deaths every year. It helps people to be more careful with what they eat and drink because you never know what might happen if people just keep drinki

47、ng or eating things with sugar or just junk in general. One day we are all going to die if we dont do something now. Queenk There are already warnings which are nutrition facts. Besides those, it needs nothing else to let consumers know what they are drinking. If we put warnings there, you might as

48、well put warnings on everything. Gahia 786 There should be warning labels on sugary drinks, so that people could know what they are drinking. Nutrition facts are different from warning labels because nutrition facts do not warn us. For example, warning labels warn us if we can get cancer while nutri

49、tion facts do not. 2016 hacker No one looks at labels on soda. It is a big waste of time and nobody cares about labels and we all drink what we want to drink. People can ask the company themselves if they want to know what they are drinking. So go have fun drinking something that you dont even know

50、whats inside. Labels or not, Im drinking my soda. 答案:高分范文 Should There Be Warning Labels on Sugary Drinks? Warning labels on cigarettes are universally accepted, however, a piece of pioneering legislation on the warning labels on sugary beverages has stirred up the public debate on the justification

51、 and validity of the act itself. As a matter of fact, warning labels are rather helpful to the consumers who are vulnerable due to unfavorable asymmetric information in market economy. The labels respect consumers right to know, encourage them to consume rationally and enable them to keep a balanced

52、 dietary habit. Some individuals assume that there is a common awareness of the dreadful consequences of taking in too much sugar among moderately educated people and subsequently the warning labels will not warn the consumers. However, others do contend that alerting signs will allow the consumers

53、to raise awareness of the amount of sugar in sugary drinks and the possible consequences, which is definitely different from the educational purpose of nutrition signs. As is said by Jean Rostand, a French biologist and philosopher, the obligation to endure gives us the right to know. Although the r

54、ight to know is considered to be a basic human right, tremendous bottles of sugary beverages have been poured into the mouth of the younger generation, even toddlers, without their knowledge nor permission, which would cause devastating effects on their growth, either in an accelerated or a postpone

55、d way. Meanwhile, commercials overwhelmingly misrepresent sugary beverages by employing deceptive devices, like trick photography of pop stars and false testimonials from celebrities, to implant the groundless correlation between sugary beverages and the fashion. Only warning labels can unveil the m

56、ask of the false link and cultivate a rational consumption habit. What is more, traditionally, sugar is perceived as the symbol of happiness in the era of scarcity, however, a recent study has shown that over-consumption of sugary foods will endanger the victims health, resulting in tooth decay, obe

57、sity and cardiovascular disease. Therefore, warning labels on sugary drinks help people to raise awareness of sugar intake, which eventually help people to have a balanced diet. Undeniably, sugar can be as soothing as smoking to pressure and tense. Likewise, the fearful consequence of a high intake

58、of sugar shall be paid as much attention as to nicotine. Hence, warning labels should be posted on sugary beverages. 問(wèn)題:4. 題目要求：Animal research, including medical research, toxicology testing, and psychological research involving animal subjects, has been used for several centuries as part of our efforts to better understand the world around us.
