【四级写作参考范文】

With the rapid growth of big cities, more and more people choose to live in a big city. Nowadays, it is

commonly believed that living in a big city will provides them with many opportunities, but I wonder that people who live in a big city are facing more challenges.

There are numerous challenges of living in a big city, and I would explore only three challenges here. The first challenge is that the house prices are so high that only a small proportion of people can afford. In order to live in the big cities, it is necessary for others to rent the house with a high price. The second one is that the companies in big cities ask their employees to create value all the time, which results in high living pressure for staffs. The last one is that people who living there don’t have intimate friends to share their feelings.

Based on the points discussed above, we may reasonably draw the conclusion that people living in a big city are in

front of many challenges. Dealing with the challenges is not different from conquering a great mountain; both of us require determination, courage, and perseverance.

【四级写作参考译文】

随着大城市的快速发展，越来越多的人们选择在大城市生活。现如今，人们都认为在大城市会有更好的发展机会，但是我认为生活在大城市里会遇到更多的挑战。

生活在大城市会面临数不尽的挑战，在此我只想探讨其中的三个挑战。第一个挑战是大城市的房价过高以至于仅有一小部分人能够买的起。其他人为了在大城市生存下来，只能高价租房子住。第二个挑战是大城市的公司要求员工要一直为公司创造价值，这也就导致了员工们的生存压力过大。最后一个挑战是在大城市生活的人没有亲密的朋友，没有人可以分享他们的感受。

基于上述讨论的几点，我们有理由得出结论：生活在大城市里的人面临着很多的挑战。迎接挑战不亚于征服一座高山，都需要决心，勇气和坚持。
