適用于你有不止一個主意的時候,多用于優(yōu)缺點問題以及解決問題類
主體段參考案例:
There are several reasons why I would argue against having?compulsory community service?for secondary school students.?Firstly, the?school curriculum?is already full with important?academic subjects, such as maths, science and languages.?For example, I remember having an?extremely busy timetable?when I was at high school, and it would not have been possible to add to it.?Secondly,?students’ performance?in other subjects would be affected if?valuable study time?were taken by?charity work or neighbourhood improvement schemes.?Finally, I believe that teenage students would be?reluctant?to take part in any programme of?obligatory work, and this could lead to?poor motivation?and even bad behaviour.
Idea, Explain, Example類
適用于你只有一個具體想法的時候
On the other hand, the?opportunity?to do?voluntary community?service?could be extremely positive for high school students. By making?these?programmes?optional, schools would?ensure that only motivated students took part.?These young people?would?gain valuable experience?in an?adult working environment, which could help to?build?their?self confidence?and?enhance their skills. Having?such experience and skills?on their CVs could greatly improve?school leavers’ career prospects.?For example, a period of voluntary work experience might?impress a university admissions officer or a future employer.

案例分析
The money spent by governments on space programmes would be better spent on?vital public services such as schools and hospitals.
To what extent do you agree or disagree?
范文
Governments in some countries spend large amounts of money on?space exploration programmes. I completely agree with the idea that these are a waste of money, and that the?funds should be allocated?to public services.
There are several reasons why space programmes should be abandoned. Firstly, it is extremely expensive to train scientists and other staff involved with space?missions, and?facilities and equipment also come at a huge cost?to the government. Secondly, these programmes do not benefit normal people in our daily lives; they are simply?vanity?projects?for politicians. Finally, many missions to space fail completely, and the smallest technological error?can cost astronauts their lives. The Challenger?space shuttle disaster?showed us that space?travel?is extremely dangerous, and in my opinion it is not worth the risk.
I believe that the money from space programmes should go to vital public services instead. It is much cheaper to train doctors, teachers, police and other?public service?workers than it is to train astronauts or the scientists and engineers who work on space exploration projects. Furthermore,?public servants?do jobs that have?a positive impact on every member of society. For example, we all use schools, hospitals and roads, and we all need the security that the police provide.?If governments reallocated?the money spent on space travel and?research, many thousands of people?could be lifted out of poverty?or?given a better quality of?life.
In conclusion, my view is that governments should spend money on services that benefit all members of society, and it is wrong to waste resources on projects that do not improve our everyday lives.

(07)討論類作文
案例分析
Some people think that a sense of competition in children should be encouraged. Others believe that children who are taught to co-operate rather than compete become more useful adults.
Discuss both these views and give your own opinion.
范文
People have different views about whether children should be taught to be competitive or co-operative. While?a spirit of competition?can sometimes be useful in life, I believe that the ability to co-operate is more important.
On the one hand, competition can be?a great source of motivation?for children. When teachers use games or prizes to?introduce an element of competitiveness?into lessons, it can encourage children to work harder to?outdo the other pupils?in the class. This kind of?healthy rivalry?may help to?build children’s self confidence, while pushing them to work independently and progress more quickly. When these children leave school, their confidence and?determination?will help them in competitive situations such as job interviews. It can therefore be argued that competition should be encouraged in order to prepare children for adult life.
On the other hand, it is perhaps even more important to prepare children for the many?aspects of adult life?that require co-operation. In the workplace, adults are expected to work in teams, follow instructions given by their?superiors, or supervise and support the more?junior members of staff.?Team collaboration?skills?are much more useful than a competitive determination to win. This is the?attitude that I believe schools should foster?in young people. Instead of?promoting the idea?that people are either winners or losers, teachers could show children that they gain more from working together.
In conclusion, I can understand why people might want to encourage competitiveness in children, but it seems to me that?a co-operative attitude is much more desirable?in adult life.

(08)解決問題類作文
案例分析
In many countries schools have severe problems with student behaviour. What do you think are the causes of this?
What solutions can you suggest?
范文
It is true that the behaviour of school pupils in some parts of the world has been getting worse in recent years. There are a variety of possible reasons for this, but?steps can definitely be taken to tackle the problem.
In my opinion,?three main factors are to blame?for the way young people behave at school nowadays. Firstly, modern?parents tend to be too lenient or permissive. Many?children become accustomed to?getting whatever they want, and they find it difficult to accept the demands of teachers or the?limits imposed on them?by school rules. Secondly, if teachers cannot control their students, there must be an issue with the?quality of classroom management?training or support within schools. Finally, children are influenced by the behaviour of?celebrities, many of whom?set the example?that success can be achieved without finishing school.
Student behaviour can certainly be improved. I believe that the change must start with parents, who need to be persuaded that it is important to?set firm rules?for their children. When children misbehave or break the rules, parents should use?reasonable punishments?to demonstrate that actions have consequences. Also, schools could?play an important role?in?training both teachers and parents to use?effective disciplinary techniques, and in improving the communication between both groups. At the same time, famous people, such as musicians and football players, need to understand the?responsibility that they have to act as role models?to children.
In conclusion, schools will continue to?face discipline problems?unless parents, teachers and public figures set clear rules and demonstrate the right behaviour themselves.

(09)兩部分類問題
案例分析
News editors decide what to broadcast on television and what to print in newspapers. What factors do you think influence these decisions? Do we become used to bad news, and would it be better if more good news was reported?
范文
It is true that editors have to make difficult decisions about which news stories they broadcast or publish, and their choices are no doubt influenced by a variety of factors. In my opinion, we are?exposed to too much bad news, and I would?welcome a greater emphasis on good news.
Editors face a range of considerations?when deciding what news stories to focus on. Firstly, I imagine that they have to consider whether viewers or readers will be interested enough to choose their television channel or their newspaper over competing providers. Secondly, news editors have a responsibility to inform the public about important events and issues, and they should therefore?prioritise stories that are in the public interest.
Finally,?editors are probably?under some pressure from the owners?who employ them.?For?example, a newspaper owner might have?particular political views?that he or she wants to promote.
It seems to me that people do become accustomed to negative news. We are exposed on a daily basis to stories about war, crime,?natural disasters and tragic human suffering?around the world. I believe that such repeated?exposure gradually desensitises people, and we become more?cynical?about the world and?more sceptical?that we can do anything to change it. I would prefer to see more positive news stories, such as reports of the work of medical staff after a natural disaster, or the kindness of volunteers who help in their communities. This kind of news might?inspire us all to lead better lives.
In conclusion, it must be extremely difficult for editors to choose which news stories to present, but I would like to see?a more positive approach?to this?vital public service.
