FoodFoodsafetyhasbecomearisingconcernamongChinesecitizensafter

aseriesoffoodcontaminationaccidentsoccurredacrossthecountryinrecent

years.In2006,thecountry'sfoodsafetywatch解析：本次写作试题要求对

“食品安全”问题展开讨论。要求考生先描述食品安全的现状，然后分析

产生这些食品问题的原因，最后就我们应该怎么做进行阐述。写作可以

按照试卷上给出的汉语提纲展开。文章首段应指出食品安全问题已经越

来越多地受到中国居民关注。可以运用...hasbecomearisingconcern

among…的句式来表示“……已经成为(关注的焦点)”，类似的句式还有

moreandmorepeoplepayattentionto...越来越多的人在关注还可以

运用themostnotoriouscase...来举例说明。文章第二段应该对产生食品

安全的原因加以分析，很多生产者为了牟取暴利不惜违反法律将一些化

学物品添加到食品里。用becauseof…来表示原因，还可以用thereason

of…用inorderto表示为了达到……目的所采取的做法，相类似的用法

还有soasto...,inorderthat...提出对策和建议时可用

firstly...secondly...finally/atlast...或firstofall...then...thelastbutnotthe

least等表达方式，以体现文章条理清晰。

3.HowtoCultivateTeamSpirit?[1]Teamspiritisamustforthegrowthof

everyone.Withoutteamworknoindividualorgroup(acompanyaninstitute

Spirit?[1]Teamspiritisamustforthegrowthofeveryone.Withoutteamwork,

noindividualorgroup(acompany,aninstituteorevenacountry)canachieve

anything.[2]However,解析：本篇作文标题是“HOWtoCultivateTeam

Spirit?”，这也就是文章的主旨，写作时应该重点围绕“如何”加以阐述。

所以outline中的前面两点(团队精神的重要性以及许多人缺失团队精神)

虽然必不可少，但不能太费笔墨。

当然，本文的难点也正是就“团队精神的培养'’提出几条建议。这需要考

生充分发挥自己的主观能动性，各显神通：样文给出两条建议：首先，

我们要从思想上认识到个人力量是有限的；其次，要在行动上积极参与

社会活动、考生在处理类似问题时，也不妨从“思想”和“行动”的角度来

思考。

Analysis

[1]文章开头，往往只需用英语复述outline中的含义即可。主题句+支

持句”的结构很清楚。

[2]对于outline提到的“缺乏团队精神”的现象做简要描述，用too

individualistictobecooperative说明其原因及表现方式。

[3]可以说是文章的主题句，以问句的形式出现。

[4][5]只打算写两点时，注意用适当的信号词表示这两点。First…和

Furthermore可以表示两者之间的递进关系。

[6]引用名言说明应该团结（也就是要合作）的道理，具有较强的说服力。
