Answer 1

Recently, our class held a discussion about whether Chinese people should celebrate foreign festivals or not. Opinions are divided on this issue.
60% of the students think that it is wrong to do so because people will waste a lot of money observing these festivals. Besides, people are likely to forget their own tradition and culture if they focus too much on foreign festivals.
However, 35% of the students argue that it’s a natural trend to celebrate foreign festivals. As we all know, with the development of science and technology, the earth has, in fact, become a global village. Those festivals that were once foreign to us are now familiar to us.
As far as I’m concerned, if we can strike a balance between our own festivals and foreign ones, it’s not a bad idea to have more festivals to celebrate.

試題分析：本文屬正反方觀點(diǎn)的議論文作文，主題是對“中國人該不該過洋節(jié)”的不同觀點(diǎn)，題目給出了大部分要點(diǎn)，也要考生給出自己的觀點(diǎn)。文章結(jié)構(gòu)清晰，先是一些同學(xué)反對的觀點(diǎn)，然后是贊同的觀點(diǎn)，最后是自己的觀點(diǎn)，要求考生用地道的英語表達(dá)自己的觀點(diǎn)，要求觀點(diǎn)明確，駕馭語言的能力強(qiáng)，選擇詞匯的時候要選擇相對高級的詞匯，也要運(yùn)用多種句型，讓文章更有變化。難度在于選擇合適的詞匯和句型表達(dá)文章需要的意思，可以變換使用一些容易駕馭的句子或者詞匯實現(xiàn)同樣的目的。在寫作的時候要運(yùn)用合適的連接詞把要點(diǎn)串聯(lián)起來，使文章成為一個整體。
【亮點(diǎn)說明】文章結(jié)構(gòu)清晰，觀點(diǎn)明確，有不少好句子和短語：focus too much on“太關(guān)注”，be familiar to“為…熟悉”，As far as I’m concerned“據(jù)我所知”, 60% of the students think that it is wrong to do so because people will waste a lot of money observing these festivals. 這句話用了it做形式主語， people are likely to forget their own tradition and culture if they focus too much on foreign festivals.這句話用了固定句型， As we all know, with the development of science and technology, the earth has, in fact, become a global village.這句話用了非限制性定語從句。還有范文使用了Besides,這樣的詞，使文章更加連貫。
