三、規定情景作文

　　情景作文一般沒有具體規定標題，僅僅提供一定的情景。考生要自己從情景信息中提煉文章的中心思想并以此為基礎確定自己文章的標題和段落結構，千萬不要脫離情景，而應嚴格依照題目所規定的情景構思短文。

　　規定情景作文的寫作要點：

　　1. 在題目規定的情景內展開構思，組織內容。

　　2.仔細審題。考生應明確題目所提供的情景，是論證還是說明，是敘事還是寫景。

　　3.確定段落與主題句。各段的主題句條理清晰，同時也使考生對自己所要表達的內容有更具體的把握。

　　4.平穩地展開段落。主題句一經確定，考生便可以圍繞主題句，展開段落，完成全文的寫作。段落的展開應該建立在段落情景基礎之上，每段的重點都應集中于描述情景規定內容。

　　5.考生的詞句使用應緊扣情景，突出重點，前后連貫，表達清楚。

　　6.明確題型種類。情景寫作可根據內容寫成不同文體，如記敘文、論說文等，故考生應該注意靈活運用相應文體的寫作方法與技巧。

　　7.認真檢查與修改。考生應重點檢查是否完全準確地包含了情景所要求的各方面內容，是否有與情景相悖或不相關的內容。

　　Directions:

　　Stress is a natural part of modern life. In this part, you are required to write within 40 minutes a composition of no less than 200 words about “Stress in Modern Life”. You are to state briefly the relationship between stress and modern life and the different attitudes towards stress. At the end of your composition you should draw your own conclusion.

　　Stress in Modern Life

　　It's known to all that stress is a natural part of daily life and there is no way to avoid it. As the pace of modern life continues to increase, we are always feeling on the go from morning till night. And it is hard to slow down. It seems to us that everyone around us is aggressive. Therefore, whatever one does, he feels under stress all the time. It is clear that stress has much to do with the life in a competitive society.

　　Different people, however, think of stress quite differently. Some believe that stress is not the bad thing it is often supposed to be. They are of the opinion that a certain amount of stress is vital to provide motivation and to give purpose to life. Others argue that stress contributes to one�餾 mental decline and hence endangers his health. According to them, relaxation, the opposite of stress, is essential for a healthy mind and body.

　　Personally, I�餸 in favor of the former view. I think it is impossible to avoid stress when one is entirely devoted to the career he pursues. In my opinion, it is only when the stress gets out of control that it can lead to poor performance and ill health.

　　Directions:

　　Migrant workers (外地民工) have made a great contribution to the prosperity of cities. In this part, you are required to write an essay of 200 words entitled “The Role of Migrant Workers”. You can agree and/or disagree, completely or partially, to above statement. But no matter which position you take, you should give sound supporting reasons.

　　【答案】

　　The Role of Migrant Workers

　　As is known to all, migrant workers have made a great contribution to the prosperity of cities. They are an indispensable part of our work force. Most of them work on construction sites. There is no doubt that without migrant workers many of the construction projects would have to be held up for lack of manpower. In addition, a large number of migrant workers are a beneficial factor, which enhances the consumption of food and daily items. This in turn helps to develop food industry and service trades in cities. All these are positive aspects of migrant workers in cities.

　　However, as a popular saying goes, “Everything has two sides”. The same is the case with migrant workers. Firstly, most of them are not well educated and professionally trained. Some of them have had very little schooling. As you know, illiterate people, who are usually ignorant of the law, tend to make trouble, thus endangering social order. Secondly, most of the migrant workers swarm into big cities just to make money. Being illiterate or unskilled, some of them would stop at nothing to get what they are ambitious for. Therefore, they are a potential threat to the peace and stability of society.

　　In my opinion, in the appraisal of migrant workers, it is one�瞫ided to affirm everything or to negate everything. We should appreciate the great contribution made by them, and at the same time pay enough attention to the problems caused by them.
