英語作文 篇1
Its name in Arabic is Wadi Hitan but it is known as the Valley of the Whales.
For years palaeontologists have been unearthing a remarkable collection of whale fossils, all the more surprising because the area is now inland desert in upper Egypt.
It is believed that about 40 million years ago the area was submerged in water, part of the Tethys Sea. As the sea retreated north to the Mediterranean it left a series of unique rock formations and also a cornucopia of fossils.
One of the most exceptional finds was a 37 million-year-old whale from the species Basilosaurus isis, unearthed by a team led by Prof Philip Gingerich of the University of Michigan in the United States.
But now it has become the subject of a bizarre customs wrangle at Cairo airport.
Prof Gingerich explained that this was the only complete specimen from this species of whale.
It provides evidence of how whales evolved from being land-based creatures to go back into the sea - a reverse of the usual evolutionary process.
Basilosaurus isis retained tiny feet, a useless reminder of its evolution from land animal to sea-dweller.
The limbs are human sized, even though the creature is 15m-16m long.
For the past two years Prof Gingerich and his team have been painstakingly reassembling the skeleton back in Michigan. It is now being returned to Egypt for a new museum, planned for the Valley of the Whales.
But according to the Egyptian media the whale skeleton is stuck at Cairo airport.
Customs agents are demanding a $40,000 fee.
It is not clear how they came to that figure as prehistoric fossils have no agreed market value.
In any case the Egyptian authorities who are importing the fossil are refusing to pay.
A senior official from the ministry of tourism has warned that the issue needs to be resolved speedily, otherwise it could cause a "big scandal" for Egypt, he said.
Prof Gingerich joked that it had taken two-and-a-half years to be allowed to export the fossil to the United States, and it could take another two-and-a-half years to get it back.

英語作文 篇3
In recent years,the film “Hachiko—A Dog’s Story” has been very popular.It mainly shows an impressive story between a loyal dog and a professor.As far I am concerned,there are many things we can learn from the film.
To begin with,I believe that most people who have watched this film were moved by the dog’s loyalty.The dog has waited for his owner for a lifetime and hid loyal behavior has taught us never forget anyone we loved—the meaning of loyalty.We can learn that we should try to get along with each other with true affection and never betray in an intimated relationship so that we can strengthen our relationship and understand each other better.And we should believe that there is still a true affection in the world.

3.我的看法.
The approach of the Chinese Lunar New Year poses a national issue concerning the necessity of holding the CCTV Spring Festival Gala. Its established status is being challenged by a growing number of people, especially by younger generations.
It is increasingly difficult to cater for all tastes。Some individuals deem that it should be canceled or replaced by other programs。 These young people focus their attention on other forms of celebration instead of immersing themselves in TV。 Despite that, the majority of mid-aged people and senior citizens uphold the importance of the traditional performance。 The most striking feature of this gala is its traditionally close link with ordinary people's lives。Most of people view this gala as an annual staple on the traditional Chinese Spring Festival Eve。 They all have a restless night and glue their eyes on the television。
I am not supportive of the view that the grand gala should be abandoned。 Undoubtedly, it plays a vital role in the celebration of Chinese New Year。 To increase its appeal and meet young adults' need, the upcoming performance should invite some big names including super stars from Hongkong and Taiwan。 We are all eagerly anticipating this unforgettable evening show。
點(diǎn)評:
本次四級考試作文總體上來說并不是很難。但表現(xiàn)出兩個(gè)出人意料:一是體裁,二是題材。
對于體裁來說,本次四級作文屬于正反對比論證類的文體。比較出人意料,又回到了老的考查模式。很多學(xué)生把考前死背的作文模板派上了用場。但是這只能得到最基本的分?jǐn)?shù)。雖然模板對于考查學(xué)生的語言表達(dá)并不益處,但還能測試出考生的語言基本功。從四級考試寫作的測試目的來看,還是注重考查學(xué)生對基本語法、基本詞匯運(yùn)用能力的掌握情況。所以除了模板之外,考生還要在基本表達(dá)上狠下功夫,只有在平時(shí)多操練,在考場上才游刃有余。除此之外,學(xué)生還要在作文中多采用閃光點(diǎn),這樣就會使作文在基本分?jǐn)?shù)上有所提升,有所突破。
對于題材,本次四級作文的話題是關(guān)于人們對于春節(jié)晚會的不同看法,屬于社會生活類話題,一反常態(tài),沒有再次考查校園類話題。但是對于當(dāng)代大學(xué)生來說,與大學(xué)生有關(guān)的.社會話題也是需要關(guān)注的,這也說明考試方向的變化:校園類話題與社會熱點(diǎn)話題同等重要,這一點(diǎn)對于未來考四級的學(xué)生的作文備考的方向有一定的指導(dǎo)意義。
