作文指导
开放式作文
【体裁导航】
开放式作文一般不提供具体的情景，也没有固定的模式限制，但其体裁和字数仍然要受制于所提供的内容。
做此类题型的作文时，审题非常关键。还要根据所判定的体裁，打开思路，发挥想象，不要过多地顾忌是否犯了语法错误，或者表述是否清楚，而要尽快找出能合理表述文章内容的词句，一气呵成，完成作文。
一般说来，开放类作文，要求的字数比较少，所以我们在文章的结构上必须注意“集中火力”，突出重点，直奔主题，而不要随便发挥。
这样，完成了表述以后，就进入了修改阶段。看语法结构，看语言表达，看单词拼写，看标点符号，甚至看字母的大小写。总之，好文章都是经过反复修改而成的。
【写作示例】
在竞争激烈的当今社会，人们十分强调个人能力，但是我们也不能忽视相互合作(cooperation)的重要性。请举例说明相互合作的重要性。
要求：词数120左右。
【写作要领】
本题为开放式作文，要求举例说明相互合作的重要性。首先应该阐明自己赞成合作的观点，然后，举例说明。举例后的重点应该在于说明合作的重要性上。最后一段要进行总结，以达到前后的呼应。
【金点模板】
①People’s view on________.②In my opinion，________.
③Just take________.④The success________.⑤So cooperation________.
⑥I doubt whether________.⑦No matter________.⑧At the same time，________.⑨So cooperation________.
⑩All in all，________.
【范文点评】
My View on Cooperation
①People’s view on cooperation varies from individual to individual.In my opinion，cooperation to society is what air is to man.
②Just take the 2008 Nobel Chemistry Prize as an example.The success relies on the efforts of all the three scientists.③So cooperation plays a very important role in the fields of scientific research.
④I doubt whether personal efforts are enough to deal with the ever increasing challenges. ⑤No matter how great a person is, he or she cannot accomplish everything within his or her own strength. At the same time, everyone has their shortcomings. So cooperation is needed as far as the fact is concerned.
⑥All in all, as the saying goes “All roads lead to Rome” I think all rightful attempts to succeed lead to the improvement of men’s living and working standard.
【点评】
①开门见山，点明主题，提出个人观点。
②举例说明合作的重要性，富有说服力。
③据上例得出结论。
④进一步说明合作的重要性，阐明个人的能力再强大也需要合作。
⑤no matter引导的让步状语从句增强了感染力。
⑥最后给与总结，呼应开头，前后得到了很好的照应。
【类题尝试】
(2011年陕西宝鸡质检)诚信是处世之本。但是在中学生当中，考试作弊、抄袭作业、欺骗家长和老师等现象屡见不鲜。请你对以上种种现象作简要描述，并以“How to guarantee honesty”为题，从三个方面谈谈如何保证学生做到诚信。
注意：1.词数不少于100；
2.开头和结尾已给出，不计入总词数。
How to guarantee honesty
As we all know，honesty is always an essential principle of living.Much to our regret，however，________________________________________________________________________
________________________________________________________________________
Honesty is the best policy，which is what we should keep in mind all the time.
One possible version：
How to guarantee honesty
As we all know，
honesty is always an essential principle of living.Much to our regret，however，it is nothing new that some middle school students cheat in exams，copy others’ homework and fool their teachers and parents.Therefore，how to guarantee honesty should come to our attention.
Personally，I think honesty education is necessary.For instance，courses on honesty can be offered to students；activities like storytelling and lectures are also worth trying.With the concept of “being honest” rooted in their minds，honesty can be reflected in their daily life and study.
Besides，related rules and regulations should be laid down.Detailed criteria should be applied to evaluate students in aspects such as homework，tests，relationship with teachers and parents.

开放式作文
【体裁导航】
开放式作文一般不提供具体的情景，也没有固定的模式限制，但其体裁和字数仍然要受制于所提供的内容。
做此类题型的作文时，审题非常关键。还要根据所判定的体裁，打开思路，发挥想象，不要过多地顾忌是否犯了语法错误，或者表述是否清楚，而要尽快找出能合理表述文章内容的词句，一气呵成，完成作文。
一般说来，开放类作文，要求的字数比较少，所以我们在文章的结构上必须注意“集中火力”，突出重点，直奔主题，而不要随便发挥。
这样，完成了表述以后，就进入了修改阶段。看语法结构，看语言表达，看单词拼写，看标点符号，甚至看字母的大小写。总之，好文章都是经过反复修改而成的。
【写作示例】
在竞争激烈的当今社会，人们十分强调个人能力，但是我们也不能忽视相互合作(cooperation)的重要性。请举例说明相互合作的重要性。
要求：词数120左右。
【写作要领】
本题为开放式作文，要求举例说明相互合作的重要性。首先应该阐明自己赞成合作的观点，然后，举例说明。举例后的重点应该在于说明合作的重要性上。最后一段要进行总结，以达到前后的呼应。

【范文点评】
My View on Cooperation
①People’s view on cooperation varies from individual to individual.In my opinion，cooperation to society is what air is to man.
②Just take the 2008 Nobel Chemistry Prize as an example.The success relies on the efforts of all the three scientists.③So cooperation plays a very important role in the fields of scientific research.
④I doubt whether personal efforts are enough to deal with the ever increasing challenges. ⑤No matter how great a person is, he or she cannot accomplish everything within his or her own strength. At the same time, everyone has their shortcomings. So cooperation is needed as far as the fact is concerned.
⑥All in all, as the saying goes “All roads lead to Rome” I think all rightful attempts to succeed lead to the improvement of men’s living and working standard.
【点评】
①开门见山，点明主题，提出个人观点。
②举例说明合作的重要性，富有说服力。
③据上例得出结论。
④进一步说明合作的重要性，阐明个人的能力再强大也需要合作。
⑤no matter引导的让步状语从句增强了感染力。
⑥最后给与总结，呼应开头，前后得到了很好的照应。

How to guarantee honesty
As we all know，
honesty is always an essential principle of living.Much to our regret，however，it is nothing new that some middle school students cheat in exams，copy others’ homework and fool their teachers and parents.Therefore，how to guarantee honesty should come to our attention.
Personally，I think honesty education is necessary.For instance，courses on honesty can be offered to students；activities like storytelling and lectures are also worth trying.With the concept of “being honest” rooted in their minds，honesty can be reflected in their daily life and study.
Besides，related rules and regulations should be laid down.Detailed criteria should be applied to evaluate students in aspects such as homework，tests，relationship with teachers and parents.
