In this fastpaced world, many values are undergoing major changes.While people traditionally prioritize (區(qū)分) caring, sharing and generosity in life and work, modern people seem to be more selfabsorbed and selfconcerned. Modern people act selfishly to survive the harsh petition of life.They say that it is a jungle out there.To survive, you have to fight with whatever means that e handy.Obviously greed and selfishness go perfectly well with such ideas.In a pany, employees do everything they can to get better pay and higher position, even at the cost of colleagues.We are in any way advocating (主張) any selfish conduct.It is just that people are pressured to act in a certain way due to outside influences. In spite of mon practice, it is hard to conclude that modern society is built on greed and selfishness, both of which are not newly invented vocabulary.In ancient times people also did greedy and selfish things though such behaviors were more condemned then.But we can not ignore the fact that people in the past lived a relatively more isolated life and faced less pressure pared with their modern counterparts. Are we happier to share with others and be generous to them? There is no fixed answer either.Some people take great pleasure helping and giving to others while others feel happy doing the opposite.But I personally think that people should not be too selfish.Caring for others can actually encourage the development of a mutually beneficial relationship. In conclusion, modern people appear to be more selfcentered than those in the past due to strong outside pressure.However, we should encourage people to know the importance of being caring and generous and to build a mutually beneficial relationship with others.Are Modern People Being More Selfish?Main parisonsContexts71 are changing.In the past people put caring, sharing and generosity in the first 72 .Nowadays, people seem to be more 73 about themselves.74 are changing too.People in the past appeared to be modest and selfeffacing (謙讓的).People may strive to achieve their own 75 at the cost of their coworkers.The author’s understanding76 for the changes in author’s eyesFierce 77 and great 78 on modern people may be responsible for the changes.The author’s 79 towards topicA relationship which can 80 two sides should be established.第五部分 書面表達(dá) (滿分25分)你校組織同學(xué)們進(jìn)行了一場有關(guān)英語聽力測試的討論。討論的主題是:英語測試中的聽力部分該不該取消?請你根據(jù)表中的提示用英語寫一篇短文,介紹討論的情況。一些同學(xué)認(rèn)為不應(yīng)該取消1.聽是學(xué)習(xí)語言的四項基本技能之一,不能忽視;2.聽是獲取信息的重要途徑之一;3.國際合作日益增多,聽、說能力應(yīng)加強(qiáng)。另一些同學(xué)認(rèn)為應(yīng)該取消1.考試中各地收聽效果好壞不一,不具備公平性;2.各校英語教師和語音設(shè)備差異過大;3.今后并非人人都要與外國人進(jìn)行交流。注意:1.文章的起始句已給出。2.詞數(shù):120左右 (不包括已給出的起始句)3.參考詞匯:取消cancel;國際合作international cooperationThe students of our school had a discussion about whether listening test in the National Matriculation English Test should be kept or canceled.Some students think that listening test should not be canceled.______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
