第一篇
　　Directions： For this part， you are allowed 30 minutes to write a letter. Suppose you are Jill. Write a letter to your friend Li Fang. You should write at least 120 words according to the situation given below in Chinese：
　　假设你的好朋友李芳是大学四年级学生，正在考虑是考研究生继续深造还是大学毕业后就踏上工作岗位。请给她写封信表明你的态度。
　　Dear Fang，
　　I understand that you are in a dilemma. Although so many graduates are eager to set feet on their work-life road， there are still some who prefer to start their new life after gaining another degree to make better preparation for entering society. In my opinion， the latter are more admirable. You are good at all your course these years， so if you do like to spend another two or three years on campus， you should stick to it. In today's society， the achievement and status you can get and the devotion you can make are no doubt in proportion to your educational background and degrees， coupled with the efforts you put in them. If you want to stride to your destinations more smoothly and easily， why not head for the further study courageously？ Whichever you choose， I firmly believe your industry will ensure your success. After all， it is you who have the finally say on the final choice.
　　Best wishes，
　　Yours sincerely

　　Directions： For this part， you are allowed 30 minutes to write a composition on the topic： My View on the post-graduate Craze. You should write at least 120 words and base your
　　composition on the outline （given in Chinese） below：

　　My View on the Post-graduate Craze
　　Every year， million of college students will sit in for the post-graduate entrance examination. More and more students have regarded the pursuing of a master degree as an indispensable part of their education.
　　What is to account for their enthusiasm for a post-graduate diploma？ First， it is the demand of the time. In an age of knowledge updating and information explosion， what you have learned in college can hardly meet the demand of society. Talents of high quality who are equipped with the latest knowledge and skill will be needed more than ever. That is why many students will further their studies.
　　Second， we all recognize that the more education you have， the more likely you are to succeed. Compared with those without a master degree， masters will enjoy more preferential treatment， for example， better salaries， more opportunities for promotion and training. A post-graduate degree can guarantee a more promising career.
　　Last but not least， with the graduation of a large number of college students， competition for jobs becomes more and more fierce. One way to gain some advantage over others is to have a higher degree.
　　No wonder millions of students will consider pursuing a post-graduate degree.
