　　大作文tips预测使用建议

　　本次预测共20题， 其中有10道是双边讨论类题目， 8道议论文题（当中媒体广告类第一题是开放型的议论文题）， 1道报告文题（消费类第一题）

　　建议烤鸭们最好能把每道题都列个提纲， 如果时间充裕最好能够都写一遍。 这里提供一下本期重点预测的双边讨论类作文的文章结构

　　双边讨论类（四段式）

　　首段：

　　指出双方争论的问题

　　主体段1：

　　同义转述观点A+(A观点合理的理由及论据)+(A观点不合理的理由及论据)

　　主体段2：

　　同义转述观点B+(B观点合理的理由及论据)+(B观点不合理的理由及论据)

　　尾段：提出自己对议题的看法（可中立）

　　注意：A观点不合理的理由往往就是B观点合理的理由， 反之亦然， 因此为了重复论述， 段落中只需要说明两个观点合理的理由和论据即可。

　　以教育类第二题为例， 题目是：

　　2. Some people say that children should go to school as young as possible, while others believe that children should go to school of at least 7 years old. Discuss both views and give your own opinion.

　　不难看出， 题目中两个观点所争执的核心便是“儿童应该何时入学”这个问题。 因此， 首段可以这样写： There is a heated debate about whether children should start their schooling before 7 years old. 首段便无需再赘言。

　　主体段1：

　　要重点论述观点A（即儿童应该尽早入学）的合理性或好处。

　　参考理由：

　　让儿童为将来的学习和工作做好准备（prepare children better for their future study and work）

　　参考论据：

　　儿童有更多的时间学习知识（knowledge）和技能（skills），如语言， 数学， 等。 越早培养儿童的语言能力（language ability）和数学能力， 他们以后学习就越轻松， 因为牢固的知识基础会令获取新知识变得更容易（a solid knowledge base makes it easier to gain new knowledge）。另外， 低龄段的儿童的可塑性（plasticity）非常高， 受到环境的影响很大(greatly influenced by the environment)。 因此早一点上学， 接触正能量的校园(positive campus)， 包括老师， 同学等， 能让孩子早点养成好的学习习惯如记笔记和保持专注（form outstanding study habits such as note-taking and keeping concentrated）.

　　主体段2：

　　要重点论述观点B（即儿童应该7岁后再上学）的合理性或好处。

　　参考理由1：

　　父母可以在孩子的童年阶段陪伴孩子更多（accompany with their children more in their childhood）， 有益于（benefit）他们的心理健康（mental health）和成长（growth）。 同时， 被父母陪伴更多的孩子（children who receive more companionship from their parents）拥有更稳定的心理结构（stable mind）， 这会帮助他们建立良好的人际关系在入学后（which will help them build up healthy interpersonal relationships when they start schooling）。

　　参考理由2:

　　另外，有研究表明过早开发儿童的智力（developing children’s intelligence）以及承受学习压力(bearing study pressure) 不利于(detrimental to) 儿童的创造力的发展(development of children’s creativity)。这类型的研究声称（claim）7岁以前的儿童应该用时间（spend time）体验大自然（experience the nature）和沉浸艺术（immerse in art），而不是承受记忆的枯燥（suffer from the boredom of memorizing）, 更不应该终日囿于教室里（be constrained in classrooms）。
