英语四级常考作文的话题【一】
Dear Mary,
You said in your letter that many of your classmates wore fashionableclothes, but you couldn't afford them so you felt very depressed. There are dif-ferent views on people's clothes. The followings are my ideas:
Firstly, you shouldn't put too much emphasis on physical appearance.
Remember that the most important task for you today is to concentrate on yourstudies. No matter what you wear, you will really look your best when youcome out first in your examinations.
Secondly, you should understand that it is a fine virtue to live in fru-gality. Just as a famous saying goes, Frugality is the mother of virtue.
Since your family can't provide you with enough money to buy fashionableclothes, it is all the more necessary for you to try to lighten the financialburden of your family. And you will find the virtue of frugality benefit youa lot in your future life.
I hope you understand what I mean. Hope you will take a positive attitudetowards life and will be happy again when you read my letter.
Yours,
Anne
英语四级常考作文的话题【二】
天气日渐热了，空气漂浮令人窒息的热气，太阳疯狂了，到处布满了金色。我趁着空闲到家后面的山里游玩乘凉。
山上满是苍翠欲滴的绿，阳光被实实在在挡在外面；我庆幸着，终于摆脱了这恼人的炎热的阳光，悠闲地坐在绿荫环绕的一座小亭子小憩。这里，空气不再是热的，这里，不是太阳的地盘；我仿佛挣脱了夏季的束缚，打开心扉地享受这来自大自然的赐予。
不经意间注意到亭子旁边，茂密的树丛，上面除去绿，还能看见另一些颜色；近点看，是淡紫色，再近点，终于看清了，那是牵牛花，它们奄奄一息，花瓣儿已经蜷缩成一团，垂着头；它们快要了，在太阳的照射下，脆弱美丽的花可是经不起这些阳光，我不由得心生怜惜之情。
在这绿意盎然的夏，牵牛花却要亡，结束生命，这难道不令人悲哀。可是，几天之后，天却变了。晴朗、湛蓝的天变得黑暗了。下起雨了，雷在咆哮，雨也在呻吟；空气里弥漫着泥土的气息。日渐地雨停了，风静止了，一切都恢复了平静。天空返晴了，太阳变得温和，散着柔和的光。
我第三去了一趟小亭子，携带一本书，依然坐在那儿。令我意想不到的是，一些新奇的颜色进入我的眼睛，仔细看，那是紫色，那是重获新生的牵牛花。它们张大嘴巴似的张开了花瓣儿，挺挺的；再往后看，绿色的草丛上布满了零零星星的紫色，我看到它们张着笑脸，在欢乐的海洋里荡漾；牵牛花儿们复活了，宣告了它们对夏季的挑战，它们不会在它的打击下，同意失败。我懂了，那些紫色的意义；即便在严酷的威压下，生命的期望依然存在。

Dear all,
I am writing this letter to express my gratitude to my parents for teaching me to be positive and to be strong. “Educating the mind without educating the heart is no education at all.” is the opinion held by Aristotle. It is the experience of our forefathers, however, it is correct even today, including my parenting.
It is widely acknowledged that parenting, which can also be explained as family education, is of great significance in our character forming and manner acquiring. To be more detailed, setting good examples instead of just giving precepts is the greatest achievement of my parents. They not only taught me to think for the best and prepare for the worst; they taught me how. They not only told me the benefits of being strong in mind; they proved it. All those things require huge amount of time and work, but it’s worth it.
Without my parents’ contribution and education, I would never be who I am now. But most importantly, I would never be more gratitude to them than today.
Yours,
XXX
