But today wild animals are facing serious problems because of humans. People often cut down trees and forests, so wild animals have no place to live in or food to eat. What’s worse, people kill animals for their fur or or other parts of the body to make money. We protect wild animals not only because wild animals are our friends but also because wild animals help keep a balance between humans and nature. We human beings could not live without wild animals. Therefore, to protect animals is to protect ourselves. First, we shouldn’t buy fur coats any more. Second, we should call on everybody to know the importance of wildlife. Last but not least, the government should make laws to stop people from killing animals. 短文写作评分说明： 一档（13-15分）：1. 涵盖所有内容要点，达到预期写作目的。2. 结构完整，语句流畅、意 思清楚、连贯。使用较为丰富的语法结构和词汇，语法、词汇等方面错误较少，具备较强的 语言运用能力，且书写规范，格式正确。3. 能有效地使用常见连接词表示顺序和逻辑关系， 连接信息，做到符合逻辑、意义连贯。4. 紧扣主题，无跑题、偏题等现象。 二档（10-12分）：1. 较好地完成了规定的写作任务，虽漏掉 1、2处次重点写作信息，但基 本上包含所有内容要点。2. 结构较为完整，语句完整，意思清楚。语法结构和词汇错误较 少，格式基本正确，书写较规范。3. 能应用简单的语句间的连接成分，使全文结构紧凑。4. 虽有少量无关信息，但基本能围绕主题。 三档（7-9分）：1. 基本完成了规定的写作任务。重要的写作要点、内容信息有缺失。2. 结 构欠完整，少量语句不通顺，意思基本清楚语法结构和词汇错误较多，但基本不影响理解。 格式基本正确，书写基本规范。3. 能应用简单的语句间的连接成分，使全文内容基本连贯。 4. 整体而言，基本能围绕主题，能看出写作意图。 四档（4-6分）：1. 未恰当完成规定的写作任务，只包含少数内容要点。2. 结构不完整，多 数语句欠完整，意思不够清楚，语法结构和词汇错误较多，影响理解，格式不够正确，书写 欠规范。3. 较少使用语句间的连接成分，内容缺少连贯性。4. 主题不大明确，信息未能清 楚地传递给读者。 五档（0-3分）：1. 未能按要求完成规定的写作任务。未能理解写作要求，明显遗漏主要内 容，只写出个别要点，写了一些无关内容。2. 结构不完整，多数语句不完整或意思不明， 语法和词汇错误很多，影响对写作内容的理解，书写不规范。3. 缺乏语句间的连接成分， 内容不连贯。4. 主题完全不明，信息未能传达给读者。5. 无有效信息; 照搬照抄试卷中原 文; 雷同试卷；答题区域空白等情况不得分。
