中心句由立場(chǎng)和理由2部分組成。I agree with Kelly's viewpoint that/I believe that ... since ...如果新的支持理由要是實(shí)在想不出來,可以參考一下“萬能觀點(diǎn)”:方便,效率,經(jīng)濟(jì),耐久,安全,環(huán)保,關(guān)系,經(jīng)驗(yàn),樂趣,成就,情感,健康……
2、解釋
不能省略,必須要寫,而且要求解釋的邏輯鏈完整,不能跳躍,不能出現(xiàn)邏輯鴻溝。
3、舉例
For example, ...不能省略,因?yàn)閺脑u(píng)分標(biāo)準(zhǔn)來看: 5 sufficient; 4 appropriate ; 3 有例子; 2 有例子; 1; 無例子。
下面做個(gè)示范。
“
Topic Sentence: It is beneficial for students to attend more classes and hence acquire more knowledge.
Example (×): Take history class as an example. By studying 11 months a year at school, students will have more time studying with the teacher who conveys knowledge and assigns homework. The more history classes students take, the more knowledge they get, such as historical events and figures.
Example (?): Take the study of Industrial Revolution in history class as an example. It has taken weeks for our teacher to introduce the historical background, the main process and huge influences on the whole worlds, especially how the invention of steam engine had promoted the development of iron industry by providing more fuels.

Explanation: Since university students, especially those ones who are not majored in science-related fields, have already been preoccupied with their assignments (from their major courses), adding more science courses to their schedule is likely to make them more frustrated.
Example: As a freshman majored in Jewelry Design in college. I had to deal with a great number of assignments, such as my class presentation, a graphic design, and a term paper. Therefore, if our school had still forced me to take science classes like physics and biology, I would have been overwhelmed by more assignments coming with those courses, which would probably have interfered with my daily study schedule for my Jewelry Design.?
”第二種實(shí)用的舉例子方式是采用對(duì)比類的例子,這種方式還可能涉及到時(shí)態(tài)的混合, 是一種對(duì)自己語言水平的炫耀,加分!下面Cornnie做一個(gè)示范?!?br />
Topic Sentence: Technology has made long-distance communication better.
Example (×): For instance, I live many hundreds of miles away from my parents, but I talk to them by video chat every month.
Example (?): Twenty years ago, before we had video chat technology, I wouldn’t have been able to see my parents’?faces so often. That change in technology has allowed me to communicate with people I love even though I’m very far away.?

有的學(xué)生還會(huì)引用數(shù)據(jù)According to the statistics provided by ... 或者是用名人名言,但是這需要一定的積累啦,能不能用出來只能隨緣。另一些學(xué)生會(huì)常用analytic example,這就比較抽象一點(diǎn),更考驗(yàn)大家的功力,不過也是ok的方式。下面Cornnie做一個(gè)示范?!?br />
Topic Sentence: Another important reason to protect endangered animals is that the delicate ecological balance of an area might be irreparably harmed by their extinction.
Exemplification: For example, if humans chop down forests and use the land to grow corn, they might simultaneously destroy the habitats of a kind of bird that eats locusts. The next yearbecause the locust population can grow unchecked, locusts might destroy the entire nearby corn crop. Not only do the birds lose their homes, but humans are also harmed. The ecological balance of many natural habitats is still not well understood and humans interfere in it at their peril.
除了以上聊到的“直給型”,在實(shí)在字?jǐn)?shù)要不夠的時(shí)候可以使用“讓步型’。也就是在自己的觀點(diǎn)寫完之后或者之前加上對(duì)于別的同學(xué)的觀點(diǎn)的反駁。Admittedly, Paul is right when... After all, ... Nevertheless, I think ....
