what the future holds for the international tax system（对于国际税收体系的未来充满疑虑）”和选项 C 相一致。其中选项中的“uncertain”和原文中的“raise questions”同义复现，“prospects”和原文中的“future”同义复现。
40【B】France leads the charge on digital tax 主旨题。题干中的 title 为标题题的信息，所以此题考查的是文
章的主旨大意。B 选项里的 tax 是贯穿全文的主旨词；而文章以法国对数字服务征税为起点，全文描写了包括法国在内的其它国家对全球税收系统的担忧，因此选项 B 和文章的主旨相符合。剩余选项均选项未能体现文章关键词和全文主旨。

2020 年考研英语已经结束啦，相信同学们在考场上看到考题会信心满满。因为从内容上来讲，今年的 英语一大作文依然延续 2019 年的出题思路，考查了品质类话题的图画作文，而不同的地方在于 2019 年是一幅图，但今年却是两幅图相反。从难度上来说，今年和去年持平，对于“习惯”的英语表达，相信大家 都不陌生是“habit”。
- 9 -
写作时，按照一般顺序。第一段图画描述段，左图是位女孩正在非常努力地做着学校作业，心里想着是“尽早完成才放心”，右图是位男孩躺在沙发上也不看书，书桌上只有一本摊开的书和一支笔，心里却想着“不到最后不动手”，这两幅所反映的内容正好相反，它所反映的寓意依然是合理自洽即可，小编认为两者的不同在于习惯，女孩有很好的规划能力并有效利用时间完成任务，而男孩则恰恰相反，空耗时间只待最后“速成”，结果自然不会理想，因而我们需要养成合理规划时间的好习惯；第二段是寓意阐释段， 按照品质类的框架结构，即关键句和具体作用, 可以说 scheduling 有助于我们充分利用时间以达到学业乃至事业上的成功，还可以讲 acquire the habit of time management 有助于我们克服拖延，做时间的主人；第三段是个人评论段，框架结构是关键句+具体建议+结尾句，可以说我们需要加强人们对此种品质的意识， 希望人人都可以拥有这种美好的品质。
另外，注意大作文的评分侧重点。考研大纲指出：B 节作文的评分侧重点在于信息点的完整、内容组织的连贯、语言的准确性、语言的多样性。字迹工整，少涂抹痕迹也很关键哦。
下面附加范文以供小可爱们参考。范文：
From the first simple but compelling cartoon we can see that a young girl is making great efforts on her schoolwork with earnest expressions, which successfully captures our eyes. On the contrary, what is differently delineated in the second photo is that a lazy boy is not reading but lying on the sofa with an unfold book and a pen on the book desk. Apparently, by the contrast of these two pictures, the explicit implication emerges in front of us that the power of good habits should be attached great importance to.
Various functions, as a matter of fact, are behind this quality illustrated in this picture out as far as I know the following two matter enormously. To begin with, scheduling is the art of planning your activities so that you can achieve your goals and priorities in the time that you have available. When it's done effectively, it helps you understand what you can realistically achieve with your time and work steadily toward your personal and career goals; In addition, here is the other point that no one can ignore. It is universally admitted that it takes time to change a habit, and procrastination is a habit that requires a little bit of effort to overcome. Task aversion, distractibility and impulsiveness are common types of procrastination. Moreover, they are the easiest to overcome if we acquire the habit of time management.
Based on the afore-said discussion, it is advisable for us to take steps to carry forward the quality. All in all, it is high time to strengthen people’s awareness in this aspect. Only in this way can we make the best of time managment and embrace a bright future.
