1. Model1对应题目分析

The increase in tourist numbers is causing damage to famous and historic places, such as the Sistine Chapel and the Great Wall of China. Describe some of the causes of these problems and suggest some solutions for them.

2. Model1范文分析

Model 1

International tourism is becoming increasingly popular, and people from all over the world flock to visit famous places such as the Great Wall of China and the Sistine Chapel in the Vatican. However, this influx of visitors has caused many problems for the preservation and protection of these places. This essay will discuss the causes of this damage, and suggest some ways it can be reduced.

Damage to famous places can be due to many different causes. For example, the paintings in the Sistine Chapel are being damaged by people breathing onto them when they visit. Their breath contains moisture, which raises the humidity of the atmosphere and consequently damages the paintings. Damage in other places such. as the Great Wall is because of tourists climbing on delicate areas, and other factors such as road building so that visitors can access the site. These activities can cause erosion and damage to the area.

There are various solutions to these problems. The first one is to limit tourist numbers, because fewer visitors will result in less damage. Another solution is to enforce strict rules about which areas people can visit and what they can do when they get there. For example, special paths can be built and people can be forbidden to walk off the paths. Visitors to inside places can be asked to wear masks to reduce humidity.

In conclusion, it is necessary to control or limit tourism at famous places, because if we do not do this, these places will disappear and future generations will lose the opportunity to see these great wonders.

3. Model2题目分析

The increase in tourism may be causing environmental damage to our planet. What are some of the causes of this damage and how can we work to solve the problems tourism creates?

4. Model2范文分析

Model 2

International tourism has become increasingly common in the past twenty years, and nowadays many people travel by air to visit other cities or countries on their holidays. However, this increase in tourism has caused many problems for the environment, both globally and locally. This essay will discuss how tourism damages the environment, and suggest some ways to limit this damage.

Tourism can cause damage both globally and locally. Firstly, the increase in air traffic leads to increased global warming, as aeroplanes destroy our ozone layer through greenhouse gas emissions. Secondly, although local places often make a profit from tourism, too many tourists can lead to a lot of environmental damage from road building or hotel construction. As a result, the tourism industry can damage or lose the beautiful places that attracted visitors in the first place. For example, if too many huge hotels are built at beautiful beaches in Hawaii, the beaches will disappear and only the hotels will be left for the visitors. There are no simple solutions to these problems. However, there are some things that can be done to reduce the impact of tourism on the environment. For example, tourist numbers can be limited in delicate or precious places, and aeroplanes can be built with greater fuel efficiency. People can also be encouraged to visit the beautiful places that are close to home, rather than travelling for long distances on holiday.

In conclusion, tourism causes many problems for the environment, both locally and globally, and we must find ways to limit or control this so that we can protectour planet.

---- Writing Conclusions (2): Practice in writing conclusions

Remember, in a conclusion you need to:

Summarise your ideas

Give your opinion

Look at Model 1 from Unit 9 below. Then, fill in the gaps in the exercise below to write a brief conclusion for this model.

One way to increase food production is for people to eat grain such as barley, oats or maize instead of feeding it to animals. More food is produced when farmers grow crops instead of animals on their land. While animals constantly need a lot of grass or grain, water, and space in which to move, crops need only water and fertilizer. Also, it costs money to turn the grain into meat, by feeding it to animals and then killing the animals. Therefore, the food yield per unit of land is far greater with crops than with animals.

Another way to increase food production is by improving the technology that farmers use. Firstly, better methods for irrigating land need to be developed. In countries which have little or no rain, such as parts of Africa, improved irrigation could lead to a big increase in food production. Secondly, if better seeds are developed, this could lead to stronger and healthier plants, which would provide more food yield per unit of land.

In _____________________,the two main ways to ____________________are by _________________ and by__________________________. In my opinion, it is very important to increase food production because ________________________________.

Look at Model l from Unit 11 below. Then, fill in the gaps in the exercise below to write a brief conclusion for this model.

In the past twenty years, the amount of traffic on the roads has greatly increased, and this has led to many problems with traffic jams and pollution in inner city areas. Some countries have limited the use of cars in the inner city by charging fees or restricting the days on which people can drive into the city. This approach has some disadvantages but, on the whole, it is a good solution to the problem of inner city traffic.

Restricting car traffic in the city can make it very difficult for some people to do their daily work. For example, moving quickly to meetings is very important for businessmen, and if they have no car this could create problems for them. In addition, it is important for disabled people or for families with young children to access city services and they should be able to drive their cars to the places where they need to go. Limiting the use of cars could create real inconvenience for some citizens.

However, there are many advantages to this idea. Firstly, it greatly reduces inner city pollution, both by reducing the number of cars and by encouraging the use of public transport. This reduction in pollution benefits everyone who lives and works in the city. Secondly, it decreases traffic congestion and actually makes it easier to move around the city. Thus, businessmen may find it quicker to get to their meetings and to visit other locations by taxi, by bus or by rail transport.

In _____________, while there are some _________________ to restricting car traffic in the inner city, there are many more _________________.because of the reduction in and traffic __________________. Therefore I support ___________________________.
