　　作文題目：

　　It is unwise to put all eggs in one basket.把全部雞蛋放到一個(gè)籃子里是不明智的。

　　范文：

　　It is a truth universally acknowledged that we need to have a plan B when we are doing important things. As a famous proverbs goes, it is unwise to put all your eggs in one basket. This saying obviously aims to deliver the message that in order to avoid possible failures and setbacks, we ought to make adequate and flexible preparations.

　　Nobody can be certain of what is going to happen in the future; therefore, we all need to have different plans and prepations in case of undesirable outcomes. Then, the losses and risks can be tremendously reduced. For instance, a decade ago, chinese stock market was extremely profitable and made numerous people millionnaires just overnight. One day, my uncle came to my home and he intended to borrow money from my parents. He promised that he would return the money plus the interest in two years. But my father was dicreet and he only loaned him a few. Then, he deposited some in the bank, invested some in the national bond, and spent the rest on a new apartment. Two years later, chinese stock market crashed and my uncle nearly lost all his fortune. Luckily, my father’s decision made more money for us.

　　To conclude, it is highly unfeasible to put all eggs in just one basket. Not only will this give rise to the unexpected and unaffordable result, but we will be inclined to be irrationale and unreasonable.

　　參考范文：Abilities and Good Looks

　　We are often told not to judge people by their appearance, because for a person, abilities are far more important than appearance. Throughout history, there are numerous examples of outstanding people with remarkable achievements who are just plain or not good-looking at all.

　　However, nowadays some people hold the belief that appearance outweighs abilities, partly because some beautiful people seem to have advantages in competitive situations like job interviews and have been given more opportunities than others.

　　Nevertheless, I still firmly believe that abilities are more important. For one thing, although good looks are easy on the eye, it is always one's abilities that create values that really matter. For another, while people's good looks were born to them, abilities have to be gained through deliberate self-cultivation and years of hardworking which speak more of people's true colors. Last but not least, abilities grow over time while good looks only fade. Eventually, it is the abilities that help people succeed, so it is safe to say that abilities will always bring more to life than good looks.

　　1.In next three years, Beijing plans to invest 760 billion yuan to deal with the pollution, starting with cutting down the emission of pm 2.5. This newly announced project aims at reducing four main pollutants, including exhaust from 5 million vehicles, coal burning in surrounding areas, sandstorms from the north, and local construction dust. In addition, another 85 billion yuan will be used to establish or upgrade the facilities used to process garbage and sewage of the city. Moreover, 30 billion yuan will be invested in the afforestation program in the next three years.

　　To improve the environment, the municipal government also plans to construct some plants of water recycling, and ban the illegal constructions. Besides, Beijing will propose tougher punishments for those who violate the emission reduction rules.

　　The Chinese heated words usually reflect social changes and culture, some of which are increasingly popular with foreign media. Tuhao and dama, for example, are both old words, but they get different meanings now.

　　2.Chinese Academy of Science recently published an annualreport about its latest scientific findings and the prospect of thenext year. The report consists of three parts:science development, more advanced technology development and thesustainable strategy of China. The first one includes the latestfindings of Chinese scientists, such as the research of newparticle and the breakthrough in the study of H7N9 virus.Furthermore, it highlights some problems we need to focus in nextfew years. The second one announces some heated fields in appliedscience. For example, the 3-dimension print and the study of human organs. The thirdone suggests people enhance the top design in order to get rid ofthe structural obstacles in industrial upgrading and to promote theenergy-saving and emission-reduction。

　　3.The word tuhao used to mean rural landlords who oppress their tenants and servants, while now it refers to people spending money without limits or those showing off all around. That is to say, tuhao owns money rather than taste. The word dama is used to describe middle-aged women. However, it is regarded as a special word to call those Chinese women who rushed to purchase gold when the gold price decreased sharply not long ago.

　　Tuhao and dama may be included in the new Oxford dictionary. Up to now, about 120 Chinese words have been added to it, becoming a part of English language.
