8、说服力; 此外，题干中提出两种对立观点： “ Some thought that the students business experie nce would help them adapt better to society after g raduation, while others held a negative view, sayin g that running shops might occupy too much of the students time and energy which should otherwise be devoted to their academi
9、c study. ” 议论文写作一般要求选其一加以论述，不能兼述， 而有的考生却在主体段落中“优劣并举”，导致态度不 明、观点不清。 2007年写作题目 Some people think that financial disparity affects friendship. What do you think? 关键词是financial disparity(差异)与friendship，很多学生还 未弄懂“disparity的含义，就匆忙动笔，将financial disparity 等同于经济困难，导致离题万里; 另一方面，有的考生在论述时将重点放在financial而不是 finan
10、cial disparity上，如: the poor better understand the importance of friendship， 偏离了题目，导致严重失分。 值得一提的是，即使不认得某些关键词，也不要临场乱猜， 而应该结合上下文、词根、词缀知识理性地做出推断。以 disparity为例，前缀dis一表示“分开，分离”，词根par一表示 “切分”，据此不难猜测disparity的大致含义“差距，距离”。 操作步骤二：谋篇 三个部分：开端、主体、结尾。 开端：一开头立刻提出自己的观点，并简单扼要地 列出支持观点的两到三个理由。 主体：在主体部分里，每一段落就是开头列举的每 个

12、对方观点; 先破后立。即:前一个段落用于反驳对方观点 ，后一、两个段落用于阐释本方分论点; 破立结合。即:在各段的论述中既阐释本方论 点又反驳对方观点。 谋篇练习1 It has been said, “Not everything that is learned is contained in books.“ Compare and contrast knowledge gained from experience with knowledge gained from books.
