答案

参考答案:

When summer is approaching, a difficult job at hand is to make a plan for an enjoyable and meaningful holiday. Some choose to stay home and enjoy a relaxed and comfortable life, playing computer games, watching TV, doing household chores and the like. However, according to my experience, one will feel bored after the first two weeks.

As a matter of fact, a trip to the north or even abroad can be a much better plan. A wise man says that the world is a book, and those who do not travel read only one page. Summer holiday offers a good opportunity for us to realize our dream of looking at the world. However, there remains the problem of expenses, and travel safety, too. Who knows what kind of trouble we may run into on the way

It seems that neither confining oneself to the dorm nor going far away from home is recommendable. In view of the golden mean principle, one may take a temporary job near home. This is safe and rewarding. What is more, it can help us make a change in life, develop personal abilities, and earn some pocket money as well.

解析:

[提示] 过暑假的方式很多,图中展示了其中的三种活动:在家玩电脑、外出旅行和打工。文章应简单描述这三种活动方式,陈明利弊,并据此做出选择。可以有两种思路:(1)第一段简单介绍三种活动,第二段综合陈述利弊,第三段做出选择;(2)每段集中讨论一种选择,把选定的度假方式放在第三段,并结合前两种的利弊确定第三种的优势。当然,也可以将这三种方式全部否定,另行提出一个方式,甚至以无法做出选择结尾。

本文的重点是比较与对照。应正确使用相关的连词与副词,并注意段落之间在内容方面的内在联系。
