大胃王与王囡囡
寒暑表降到冰点下十八度的时候，我们也是在廊下睡觉。每夜最熟识的就是天上的星辰了。也不过是点点闪烁的光明，而相看惯了，偶然不见，也有些想望与无聊。
连夜雨雪，一点星光都看不见。荷和我拥衾对坐，在廊子的`两角，遥遥谈话。
荷指着说：“你看维纳斯(venus)升起来了！”我抬头望时，却是山路转折处的路灯。我怡然一笑，也指着对山的一星灯火说：“那边是丘比特(jupiter)呢！”
愈指愈多。松林中射来零乱的风灯，都成了满天星宿。真的，雪花隙里，看不出来天空和森林的界限，将繁灯当作繁星，简直是抵得过。
一念至诚的将假作真，灯光似乎都从地上飘起。这幻成的星光，都不移动，不必半夜梦醒时，再去追寻他们的位置。
于是雨雪寂寞之夜，也有了慰安了!
stars on a snowy night
the thermometer had dropped to 18 degrees below zero, but still chose to sleep in the porch as usual. in the evening, the most familiar sight to me would be stars in the sky. though they were a mere sprinkle of twinkling dots, yet i had become so accustomed to them that their occasional absence would bring me loneliness and ennui.
it had been snowing all night, not a single star in sight. my roommate and i, each wrapped in a quilt, were seated far apart in a different corner of the porch, facing each other and chatting away.
she exclaimed pointing to something afar, “look, venus in rising!” i looked up and saw nothing but a lamp round the bend in a mountain path. i beamed and said pointing to a tiny lamplight on the opposite mountain, “it’s jupiter over there!”
more and more lights came into sight as we kept pointing here and there. lights from hurricane lamps flickering about in the pine forest created the scene of a star-studded sky. with the distinction between sky and forest obscured by snowflakes, the numerous lamp-lights now easily passed for as many stars.
completely lost in a make-believe world, i seemed to see all the lamplights drifting from the ground. with the illusory stars hanging still overhead, i was spared the effort of tracing their positions when i woke up from my dreams in the dead of night.
thus i found consolation even on a lonely snowy night !
注释 ：
(雨雪时候的星辰)是冰心的早期抒情散文。文章赞美自然，想象精细，文笔清新，充满诗情画意。
① 题目(雨雪时候的星辰)翻译为stars on a snowy night。“雨雪”作“下雪”解，“雨”在此是动词，读音为yù。
② “无聊” 翻译为ennui,是英语常用文学语言，意即a feeling of boredom caused by a lack of excitement or activity。
③ “一点星光都看不见” 译为not a single star in sight,是句中独立主格， 和not a single star being in sight同。又译文用s押头韵，night和sight压韵脚，有音韵美。
④ “荷和我……” 译为my roommate and i...，其中用my roommate(同寝之友)代替专门名词he(荷)，以免外国读者把he读解为男性第三人称的代词。
⑤ “荷指着说……” 译为she said pointing her finger at...，因英语to point one's finger at有“指责”的含义。
⑥ “我抬头望时” 不宜逐字死译为i raised my head to take a look 。译为i liked up即可。
⑦ “山路转折处” 译为round the bend in a mountain path。注意bend后面跟介词in，属习惯用法。
“将繁灯当作繁星，简直是抵得过” 译为the numerouslamp-lights now easily passed for as many stars，其中短语to pass for 的意思是“被看作”，“被当作”等.

A Lesson from My Parents
Parents are your first teachers. Write a short essay to describe one of instructive lessons you once learned from your parents, including：
A distance of 500 miles separates my college from my hometown, an old city, where my parents have been living, but my heart has never been away for a single step, because the lesson from them will be a gift of lifetime.
When I was still 15, the laid-offs, or rather untimely retirements, of both my Mum and dad, arrived by far earlier than ever expected. Moreover, it could be hardly imagined how much their careers meant to them other than earning money.
Nevertheless, it would be not long before they managed to get over such a blow. They thus underwent all kinds of odd jobs they could run into, be they dirty or painstaking. That way with sufficient money for my tuition fee and living expenses I went through my three academic years.
Now one of them is getting weaker and both older, but the lesson that God only helps those who help themselves they taught me will endure in my mind despite the passage of time.
“我不喜欢弟弟或妹妹，因为那样爸爸妈妈就不会再爱我...”最近上网总能看到类似于二胎这样的话题。这个政策是去年新颁布的，瞬间引起了社会各界的更关注，这里的各界当然包括考研界，它已成为我们备考考研作文的话题之一。所以，今天，考研名师高老师想和大家来聊一聊有关二胎的话题词汇。
此政策在网络和微信上引发了热议(become a sensation on the Internet and WeChat)。不少网友认为"00后"(children born after 20xx)太自私，即使是同意父母生二胎的孩子，在有了弟弟妹妹后脾气也会变坏。但也有不少人认为，这仅仅是教育方式的问题而已(the problem lies in education)。如青岛一所小学的一群四年级学生日前成立了"反弟弟妹妹联盟"，说服父母不要生二胎。(A group of fourth-graders at an elementary school in Qingdao formed an "anti-siblings alliance" in an effort to persuade their parents not to have a second child.)该校一名老师最近发现，班里有八个孩子常聚在一起窃窃私语，讨论这件事(hold secret meetings to discuss the issue)。这些学生担心弟弟妹妹会分走自己独享的父母宠爱(steal their parents' exclusive love)。
有话题就会有相关词汇，这就要求大家在平常的学习中多多积累，这样到用的时候心中自然就有丘壑。如本篇总结词汇如下："00后"(children born after 20xx);反兄弟姐妹联盟"anti-siblings alliance";分走自己独享的父母宠爱(steal their parents' exclusive love)。同时也可以扩充相关词汇，如：生育登记服务制度?birth registration service system;流动人口 mobile population;独生子女家庭 only child family;生育时间表 birth time schedule;备孕 plan for pregnancy;母婴用品 baby, kids & maternity products;研究生妈妈 post-graduate mother。
二胎政策实施的过程中，也给社会带来了一定的影响。这一部分探讨也可以作为作文的写作素材。如全面二孩政策(universal two-child policy)出台后，中国内地主要城市三居室或四居室的大户型房子(large three or four-bedroom homes)销量攀升。北京和上海等城市的很多夫妇正在搜寻居住环境更佳的大房子(hunt for larger homes with a better environment)，为家里添丁加口早做准备。据估计，新的生育政策将使未来5年内多增加1700万新生儿(extra 17m babies being born within the next five years)。
如果今年6月份再出一个新的题型，我们也就只能依靠同学们自己在考场上的'发挥来获得高分了，接下来我们讲第二个专题，那就是进行话题的分类，不管它以何种形式考察那么它都会携带一个话题，这些话题包括了社会的各个现象各个层面，那么我们对这些现象和层面有一个了解之后，在考试的时候可能会更加胸有成竹或者说是更有准备，写起来也更加富有信心。
首先我们把这个话题分成了十个角度，分成了十个方向。
角度十：永恒话题
最后一个叫做永恒话题，永恒话题讲的就是人生哲理个人价值观这样的话题，那么如果是给你这么一幅您看一下，这两个我们就直接给出答案了。
这幅图讲的是行动的重要性，如果你只会去看这一个自己喜欢的东西，而在那幻想不去行动是永远都得不到梦想的，所以这个可能就是要你去论述，人一定要积极地采取行动去获得成功。这种话题关于行动的重要性、乐趣、毅力、坚持、创新等等，就是我们说得永恒话题。
再来探讨一个健康和财富的话题，到底哪个更重要，或者说幸福的定义到底是什么等等，这种话题都是我们说得永恒话题，在写的时候我们只要论述话题的意义和积极性和重要性就可以了。不用去解释它的原因，也不用去分析它的根源，你只要说它对我们达成成功，或者说幸福美满人生的好处就行了。
