Dear fellow students, welcome to our club—the English Club. Our club organizes a wide variety of activities.

Also a weekly English Corner is available for every student to practice their spoken English.
The benefits of joining our club are manifold. To begin with, our members will gain more opportunities to improve the English proficiency, since we have to contact English teachers and foreign teachers frequently. What’s more, your organizational skills will be better with every member of our club having to participate in organizing the activities.
In order to join our club, you need to hand in an application form, which can be downloaded from http://www.englishclub.com.cn. We shall contact you with a week. If all the requirements are met, you will be able to be part of us.
10. What Electives to Choose
(2007. 12)
For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a short essay entitled What Electives to Choose. You should write at least 120 words following the outline given below in Chinese:
1、各大学开设了各种各样的选修课
2、学生因为各种原因选择了不同的选修课
3、以你自己为例……
Nowadays, a growing number of electives are offered in all sorts of universities. According to a recent survey in China Daily, students can choose their favorite courses from a total number of 20,000 electives in Chinese universities. The topics include everything, from literature to engineering, from sociology to chemistry.
When asked why they choose the electives, different students provide different answers. Some of them choose the electives which are easier to study; therefore, the students will be able to win the credit with little effort. Other students maintain that they choose the electives that interest them the most. Still others choose the “practical” courses because they believe these programs will help them hunt for a better job when they graduate.
