Things got off to a slow start.
做学生就多考分,做成人就多挣钱,这样尊严才可以多一点。
——我离托福考试只剩10天。
周三早上好,对于任何人,我都想说早做打算早点开干。
我花了一个半月的全天备考,但还是觉得时间不够,说实话,越到后面越心慌,因为真正练进去了,才找得到自己的缺点和需要提供的地方,现在材料、方法、漏洞、技巧和练习都有,但是进步是很难的,所以时间就肯定不够,总有种错觉:给我再多一点时间,我肯定能练得更好一些。
想得美。
大家都知道时间是均匀的,但是做事完全是随意的。这几天拉着好朋友一起学习,终于看到他开始买考研资料准备复习了,然而我读英语口干舌燥整天感觉世界不够用时,他是不是来根烟玩局游戏吃个辣条........
人各有志,我崇尚自由,不会勉强任何人做讨厌的事情,只会去鼓励和帮助,提供我所有的资料和实践过的方法。
人无远虑必有近忧,人无远忧必要近虑。在年轻时把游泳和英语学好,做喜欢的事情和喜欢的人相处,在四六级专八来临之前把听说读写译全部练习下,临时抱佛脚很狼狈的。
闲话少叙,今天继续看作文,题目奉上。

Imagine that you are in a classroom or a meeting. The teacher or the meeting leader says something incorrect. In your opinion, which of the following is the best thing to do?
——Interrupt and correct the mistake right away
——Wait until the class or meeting is over and the people are gone, and then talk to the teacher or meeting leader.
——Say nothing.
Use specific reasons and examples to support your answer.
三选一的题目比较好答,思路上每个选项说下优缺点,然后字数就上来了,当然逻辑要严谨,各选项直接的转折要表达清楚。用词、句型、语法、篇章和下笔这些东西就多读多写多练习了。
习作/良辰美
Opinions vary when the lecturer says something incorrect as to interrupt and correct it or wait to talk later or even just keep silent. At the first glance, I tend to observe others for a while and decide whether to tell the talker the mistake. But upon further reflection, I realize the most appropriate action should be depended on different cases.
Start with a normal class. Let us say, I am one of the students, sitting to listen to my teacher explaining some theories. Chances are high that I am not the only learner noticing the error and other classmates are also considering if they need to inform the person standing before the blackboard. Probably some else would stand up and speak loudly of the right answer. Even not, I will choose to do that. And everyone knows teachers are very tired in many times. Thus it is understandable for them to miss something unconsciously. Besides, it has always been a common practice for both, namely teachers and students, to learn from each other. Therefore, we do not have to think too much about manners and just point it out in a respectful way.
Next comes the role of meetings. As we know, officials in high positions of the hierarchy or highly respected experts or famous stars, or someone alike, usually participate to hold the conference. In this regard, more attention should be placed onto the politeness and we should be aware of our identities, which means we may not be qualified to interrupt it or this kind of behavior is not allowed. Consequently, to wait until everyone leaves and then talk to the meeting leader could be the best way instead of questioning others in front of so many people, rudely and unconsideringly. Here, smiling to introduce yourself and discussing it modestly should be borne in mind.
Another occasion could be, if not often, private parties or personal shows or reading clubs, and so on. The members may be our relatives, friends or acquaintances and nothing is treated seriously under this circumstance. Fun and humor are the main stream. Rather arguing with anyone, simply saying nothing if we find someone is wrong means we accept others’ life styles, beliefs, thoughts, etc. And so that we could play together joyfully. After all, happiness derives from diversity.
All in all, various scenes require correspondent reacts and we are supposed to behave accordingly. Not anyone of the three choices, I suppose, is the best thing throughout our entire life. Instead, I believe only the thing the best suits works.

这篇文章开头用上了两个句型,其他连接词用得很多。我想不起来当时的写作情形了,这里是分类讨论的,based on case-to-case,写时尽量不重复用同一个单词,换种说法很简单的,指代起来也很好玩。但是我不知道具体写得如何,没法子给自己评价嘛。
作文/ONE
It's common that people often have different opinions when it comes to some issue. When people believe others' idea is wrong, they may choose different attitude towards it. Some people might immediately correct what they think is wrong, while others could reserve their ideas rather than express it directly. If I face the situation referred in the question, I must choose to wait until the class or meeting is over and then express my idea to the teacher or leader because expressing what we think is right is necessary no matter in study or work but it's also important to consider the feeling of teacher or leader.
First, everyone has the right to express his/her opinion. In other words, expressing individual opinion is a brave behavior. If we don't correct the wrong idea, teacher and students might not be aware that there is something incorrect in the classroom. If we say nothing and just leave the question alone, this question can be never solved. If we raise our doubt to teacher, teacher will judge whether we are right or wrong. Once we are right, teacher will correct the problem in next class and all the classmates will be benefited. Even we are wrong, at least we get the chance to dispel our own doubts.
Second, it's not appropriate to interrupt the class in order to present our idea. As we can see, we need to respect other people. That is to say, as students, we also should respect our teachers. So when they are teaching in the class whereas we interrupt them to point out their wrongs without considering their feelings will lead them to feel embarrassed. It's easy for us to accept the idea that if we want to receive respect from other people, we should at first respect other people. Relationship between teacher and students isn't an exception of this principle. Thereby, if we wait until the class is over and talk to teacher, teacher will be happy to accept our suggestion because we do this in a relative private situation instead of a public situation. Then teacher might feel grateful for our consideration thus our relationship will be improved.
From all the above we have discussed, I still strongly believe in my choice that we should wait until the class is over and people are gone, and then talk the problem to the teacher. Because saying nothing is not responsible for ourselves as well as teachers and other students while correcting teacher right away considerate and also make teacher embarrassed.

这第一篇文章读起来很幼稚,虽然语法错误几乎没有,个别只是代词使用不当,但读起来就是感觉那么别扭,一方面是用词不合适,另一方面是废话太多一堆常识没有例子。首句完全就是万能句,模板最大的特色就是像白痴一样地罗列无关痛痒的废话。
作文/TWO
As the development of society, nowadays the role that leaders or teachers play in a meeting becomes more and more important. People may hold different views on what they should do, if their leaders make a mistake in the meeting. Comparing to correcting the mistake right away and saying nothing, I prefer to communicate with the leader after the meeting.
I have to admit, if you choose to interrupt the meeting and correct the mistake immediately, it will be good for the meeting. It is because if you do so, more people can realize that mistake and talk together how to solve that problem. At least Mistakes can be corrected immediately. But the problem is that, sometimes, it may embarrass the lecturer, especially in an academic or industrious meeting. Doing nothing is detrimental as well, since in spite of saving the lecture’s face in public, the mistakes or misunderstanding remain unrevealed. In sum, neither pointing it out right way nor concealing it is appropriate.
So, from my perspective, the best way to solve this kind of problem is to wait until the meeting is over, and then go to your leader and talk with him about the mistake. Firstly, that can show your respect to him. It is because you can have a balance between damaging his prestige and damaging the profit of your company. When you do so, maybe your leader will correct the mistake until the next meeting. So the most important thing is that it seems that he corrects the mistake by himself. Others will think like this, even if our leader made a mistake, he will realize it and correct it. Since that, his prestige will not be damaged too much. On the other hand, if you report the mistake to him after the meeting, maybe he don’t have the chance to correct it in the meeting so that everyone can realize the mistake, but I think there will be still something that he can to reduce the damage to your company. So it is obvious that the damage to his prestige and to the company will be lowered down.
Secondly, have you ever think of what if you are wrong? If that is not a mistake, and it is you who understand something wrong. And if you correct it during the meeting, you will make a mistake in front of everyone. So that you could be a little embarrassed, and maybe after someone point it out, you can realize where the mistake is. But I think it looks like a little bit stupid. So if you are not so convinced whether the mistake exists or not, it will be better for you to wait for some time and then talk to the leader. On the other hand, it is better to prove you get the right answer before pointing out other’s flaws.
To conclude, due to the fact that you can show respect to the leader and that you can avoid the condition that you are wrong, I think it will be thebest choice if you wait until the meeting is over and the people are gone, and then talk to the leader.

作文/THREE
Deciding how to react to other people’s mistakes especially in a class or a meeting is very important. Some people may opt for not to say anything when they hear something wrong, while others may prefer to stop the lecture or some one who speaks and say their idea. I personally prefer to state my idea about the wrong information immediately because I think I may forget to correct it and these wrong information may have negative effects on other people’s who hear them in the future.
To begin with, when we attend a meeting or a class, the person who speaks, gives different kind of information. Then meeting or class may last for some hours and if we do not correct mistakes we may forget it. For example I was invited to a work meeting in a hotel last night. When I arrived there I was very tired and I entered to the room. It was late and other people came before me. Therefore I decided to seat near the door. When the lecturer started to speak I realized that he said something wrong about the number of products of the company. I did not say any thing due to the fact that he was far from me and I decided to correct his mistake at the end of the session. Unfortunately when the meeting ended I forgot to talk to the lecturer due to the fact that I was fatigued last night. As you see, we may forget to correct these type of mistakes if we do not interrupt the meeting.
Furthermore, People who attend in a class or a meeting may learn some thing wrong and this wrong information may have terrible effects on their lives. For instance, I remember when I was eighteen years old and I were in high school, one day our chemistry teacher stated some thing wrong about the reaction of sodium and water. My friend who was beside me, told me that this he was wrong but he did not say any thing to the teacher. Unfortunately when we attended final exam, there was a question about the reaction of sodium and water. All of the students in the class anwered the question wrong except me and my friend. Some of my friends did not accepted in university just because of this wrong answer. As you see some times giving a wrong information may change other people’s lives.
To sum up, I personally believe that we should correct if we hear some thing wrong in a meeting or a class and I advise my friends to do this without shyness.

我读这第三篇文章看到第二个例子时难以抑制地笑出了声....先不说几处致命的基础错误,(修正的都在文中斜体加粗下划线表示),字词句中的大词非常普遍,这里的大指含义模糊、语义粗糙、搭配不适和处处表露出天真...我真不是想用这个词,有太多类似的句子: the person who speaks, gives different kind of information
作文/FOUR
Throughout history, presentations have a great contribution to the society. Recently, there have been a lot of contributes to the idea that what is better audience's reaction during a lecture. Some people hold the view that we must ask interrupt presentation to stop developing the misinformation. I, nonetheless, contends that there will be many benefits to the audience if we correct the leader's misinformation later, the more people is likely to get more correct information in the future. In the following paragraphs, I will cogently present two conspicuous reasons to illustrate this perspective.
To commence, one of the reason coming to my mind at first to support the stance taken above is that all people have not a rich source for their data. Sometimes the leaders make a mistake, sometimes we do. If we have another data that it opposes leader ideas, we should not interrupt the presentation. Maybe during this lecture the leader provides some information that convince us that we are wrong. In the worst case, by talking about this wrong info- after finishing presentation, we can debate about it with leader. If we have mistaken it, we found it, but if the leader is in wrong, her/his view must be changed. Hence, wrong information will not develop to the others.
Alongside with the elaborated above reason, one equally noteworthy reason in corroborating this point is that talking after presentation doesn't take others time. Also, the lecturers finished their presentations. Because, may we are in wrong and our discussion during lecture take time. By interrupting debate during lecture, maybe the lecturer doesn’t be able to finish her/his work. Also, many audience are enthusiastic about the lecturer's view. So, we must respect to the others.
To sum up, based on aforementioned reasons, one can logically conclud that respecting to others is a rule during all aspect of our lives. Also everybody may have mistakes, so we must correct our miss information by considering others right.

这第四篇我实在读不下去了,可能是这次没找到高质量的作文,但这两次都是取必应搜索的前九页能复制的文章。彩色看不清的就别看了,反正漏洞百出,许多地方完全无法更改,有点出色的地方肯定是模板可惜还是错的,那肯定是模板没错然鹅给记错了。
作文/FIVE
Today, as there are more available sources of information for people, it is usual that teachers or meeting leaders make mistakes during their lecture or speech. Teachers and meeting leaders are likely to have certain qualifications which distinguish them from others, but it does not mean that students and meeting members could not have personal opinions. Therefore, I recommend interruption and correcting mistakes in the class or meeting.
People should posit their opinion morally and others should respect them. Today, society have become more and more democratic, and freedom is one of fundamental principles of human right. Correcting teachers, or a skilled well-known person, or even parents, etc., does not mean like an unethical behavior. For instance, a students can ask permission and say that the opposite side of issue could be true, and it would be not bad to speak about opposite side too.
Asking questions may be informative for other students or meeting members. If we postpone asking question while we are certain in the teacher or meeting leader mistake, we will let other students or members to learn something wrong. It's unfair that people learn something that will cause some problems either. In some cases, teachers and leader will appreciate people who are so brave to challenge them.
In an interactive atmosphere, teachers and meeting leaders will prepare themselves more and more, so the class or meeting will be deeper and more valuable. People are do the things that are compelled to do them. For example, teachers prepare themselves for class when they know there are some genius students which will ask them many question. As students ask more and more, teachers will present more materials, so the class will be more useful for students. This fact could be true for meetings too.
Correcting mistakes could be done by different approaches. Sometimes people interrupt classes or meetings just to make some fun with teachers and leaders. On the other hand some people correct their teacher or leader with feel of empathy to help them to be more successful in their presentation. The second approach is so valuable and essential.

加粗斜体下划线显示的都是漏掉的,或者我为适应语法而更改为正确的单词。这篇文章,如果有人在看的话,这篇作文可以略过,不值得看了。可以跳到末尾看推荐阅读文章。
作文/SIX
In classroom conversation teachers and in meeting leader say something incorrect but every person right to correct it. Different people have various ways to correct the mistake. From my point of view, I wait until the class and meeting is over and the people are gone, after talk to the teacher or leader because of respect to the owner or teacher, correct mistake with clear doubt and not create the disturbance.
To begin with, talk to teacher or leader after the class or meeting is one type of the respectable suggestion. For example, One month ago, my boss took the conference meeting in which he invited the many business men of the other company. In conversation my boss says that capsule made 4-5 mm size and price is only 3 rupees. That I know that my boss said the wrong size but I did not say that time and after meeting break I told him that capsules 3-4 mm. My boss said thank you and after break he corrected his mistake. If I interrupt to conversation then, my boss and other people was wrong think about my boss judgment and cancel the project. Therefore, it is better to say after and maintain the reputation and respect of the boss and teachers.
Furthermore, all time we think is not true. In some of cases we are wrong teacher are right say but we have misconception. For instance, my biology classes my teacher talk about the fungi and that time I have not knowledge about that but I read this topic before. In class, when teacher said that fungi is not harm for human that time I have doubt that I read that fungi cause disease but I misunderstand fungi use in plant which is not harm for human. So this misunderstanding I solve by I asking to teacher not interrupted in class and in conversation I got the two benefits, first is clear mistake and second is get the deep understanding about the fungi.
Moreover, if teacher and leader mistake and I not correct than it is bad effect on me and teacher or leader also. One way, if I not told them that he said something incorrect then, other people also have misunderstanding when after if, student or other member know bed effect to the speaker knowledge. Another way, if correct mistake right away is not good because of all students or other member is disturb. That's why, it is better to talk after the lecture and meeting.
In brief, when teacher and boss make mistake, I talk them to after finish the class or meeting because of it is good manner, maintain the reputation of the owner or teachers, misunderstanding easily solve and get the knowledge.

..........已被错误乱箭穿身吐血而亡.......
下面直接进入正题。
▁▂▃▅▆ ▊▷/A〓
Each promises to back businesses and revive the economy by shrinking the state, cutting taxes (and abolishing the wealth tax) and increasing the retirement age.
这几个动词如大珠小珠落玉盘一样清爽,可能是由于前面看的作文里太多不堪入目的词儿了。
主语就一个each,我只想说,学英文还是要像经济学人看齐。
▁▂▃▅▆ ▊§/B〓
And although for now the attention is on migrants from outside Europe, popultists will readily exploit French fears of Polish plumbers, or German angst over Romanian welfare tourists, should it prove expedient.
plumber: someone whose job is to fit and repair pipes, water tanks, and other equipment used for supplying and storing water
expedient: used for describing an action that produces an immediate result or solution to a problem, even though it may not be fair or honest
advantageous, appropriate, opportunist, opportunistic, timeserving, politic
+ + should it
+ + be they
+ + had we
这样的省略连接词的虚拟语气句式比较珍贵,因为高级且少见,目前只积累了几个而已。
总体把握两点,情态/连系动词提前,后面动词是原形/不定式。
▁▂▃▅▆ ▊¶/C〓
First, he had to show willingness to help the economy were it to be blown off course by Brexit, all the while keeping the public finances on an even keel.
因为我是按照杂志从前往后找的句型,之前读过去时顺手把好的句式给标注出来了,所以这里又碰到一个。
那就再来两个一起欣赏一下吧。
- Shoulda mutation lead to the appearance of a newtype, it wouldn’t be stuck with the problem of finding a rare match for itself in the population; instead, it would be able to mate with everyone else, there by producing offspring more quickly and growing its numbers.
- Had the laws of physics been different, we would not have been around to debate the question.
先要多见,然后有进一步了解的意愿时,就找找语法书,很简单的。
这里不要抬杠哈,被动/过去分词的出现是有正当原因的,要么前面be动词,要么是had后面跟分词。
▁▂▃▅▆ ▊◆/D〓
Things got off to a slow start: in his speech to MPS, Mr Hammond did not once mention that ugly acronym.
get off: used for saying that something begins in a particular manner, especially a race or a competition

Philip Hammond pulled no rabbits from his fiscal hat when he delivered his Autumn Statement on November 23rd. But he did offer up a carrot, when he recycled an old Labour proposal to ban the fees that property-letting agents can charge tenants.
pulled rabbits out of the hat:
used to describe an action that is fortuitous, and may involve sleight of hand or deception
尤指出乎意外,变戏法似的找到解决办法
这样的俗语若是硬翻译只能尴尬了。
offer up: to provide something that is intended to impress, please, or satisfy someone
carrot: something that someone promises you as a way of encouraging you to do something
