Regretably, quite a lot of promises are sheer nonsense, just as the hen in the given cartoon mits herself to lay eggs which are round without any angles and corners and have shells, egg whites and yolks. Odds and funny as they sound, such false promises can be seen and heard everywhere in our country. Administration departments assure to perform their tasks effectively and fairly without taking any bribes。 manufacturing units guarantee to turn out products of good quality。 mercial enterprises swear to provide genuine modities and polite and enthusiastic services. Can you find anything new and substantial other than their obligations, duties and jobs in these so called promises? I guess your answer will be negative. As a matter of fact, their intention to make such mitments is nothing but to put on civilized outer clothing to please or deceive the public. I dare say that your society is suffering corruption and cheat which are causing damage to society both materially and morally. But the hen and her like should know that by dishonest words no one can survive the intense petition under market economy system. They should remember the old saying, “Honesty is the best policy”.14分作文樣例二： Here is an interesting cartoon: With her head held high, maybe singing, a hen stands proudly in the center of the picture with a notice in hand. It says: “Firstly, I promise that the eggs I lay are absolutely round without any square corners. Secondly, they all have shells and cores.” It’s so ridiculous that we can’t help laughing. But after that there must be something left. Recently, many promises have e up in many walks of life, especially the service departments. They promise you that they will provide you with warm smile service and good products. AT first you are moved nearly to thank them. But if you think twice, you may wonder if those should be their duties. It goes without saying that factories should produce goods of quality, department stores should serve customers politely, buses should arrive on time, and so forth, because all of these are their responsibilities. But why should they promise what are their due jobs? One reason may be that they want to correct their past mistakes under the planned economic system. Another is that they intend to improve their images and please the customers. In my opinion, trying to be better is worth weling, but making empty and false promises is unacceptable. If factories, panies, stores and administrations do their jobs wee rather than talk nonsense, our society will be more prosperous. （二）2002高分作文：20分作文樣例：(1)(1) This is a very interesting picture of a lovely American girl dressed in traditional Chinese costume with a sweet smile on her face. She wears a pearl necklace, colorful ribbon, ear rings, and other decorating things that are characteristic of the clothes of a Chinese minority nationality. It is obvious that as a result of our opendoor policy, more and more foreigners visit China and bee interested in our national culture, which is making it go international. There is no reason to make a fuss about this phenomenon. With the rapid development of technology and economy, the world is being smaller and smaller, and international cultural exchanges have bee more and more frequent, which is inevitably improving our mutual understanding and friendship with other countries. As Chinese citizens, we should respect our own national culture and learn useful things from the cultures of different nations, which will enable us to make great progress in many ways. I believe a happy and bright future is awaiting us if we make every effort to promote cultural development both nationally and internationally.18分作文樣例：(2)(2) Nowadays, “national culture or international culture” has bee a matter of great concern for the general public in our society, especially for those who are confronted with this problem. Now let’s take a look at the American girl in traditional Chinese costume. She looks very beautiful with a nice smile on her face. It seems that the girl is very fond of the Chinese costume. Obviously, the picture indicates that a culture of one nation may bee international, which is beneficial to all the human beings. Since China has opened its door widely to the outside world, many people from different countries want to visit China. They will accept and love the Chinese culture as a whole. In addition, Chinese culture should be well shared with foreign people who have shown their great interest in it. Meanwhile, the Chinese people are also exposed to foreign cultures when more foreign people e to China. In this way people from various nations in the world will be able to acquire better understanding of each other and live peacefully in this world. My opinion about this cultural phenomenon is that a national culture should bee international. This is because the culture of any nation is a kind of precious heritage, and belongs to the whole mankind.（三）2004高分作文：18分作文樣例：As is shown in the picture, on arriving at the finishing line of a race on the playground, the lovely young man has to continue his new journey in no time instead of stopping to take a rest.
