段落模式，所以必须紧扣标题，严格遵守提纲，达到规定字数。构思时

结构一定要清晰，建议使用四段式，第一段综述，第二、三段分述，第

四段做总结，二、三段是重点。可将提纲中的两点作为第二段和第三段

的主题句，但不要逐字翻译，然后再找2・3个与主题相关的素材展开说

明。另外还需注意：①写好第一句话。这样容易给阅卷者留下一个好印

象，最好能用上一个漂亮的复合句，里面再用上2—3个难的单词或词

组，但不能出错。②在写作时尽量多用长句，少用短句，适当加入几个

结构较复杂的句子。可多用连接性的词组或单词，如first,second.

moreover,foronething...foranother,ontheonehand...ontheotherhand

等等。可以把它们置于段首或文中比较显著的位置，这样会使文章更具

条理性。③注意结尾的时候要点题，把自己的观点明确说出来。文章不

要写得太长，这样容易引起阅卷者的反感，达到字数就可以了。④如有

可能，适当加上一两句名言或是谚语，以显示你的水平。最后要注意没

有语法错误，并保持卷面干净整洁。

本文可以这样写：首先第一段介绍在生活和工作节奏不断加快的今天,

人们会碰到各种各样的个人危机，如：工作事业上的.婚恋家庭上的，

人际关系上的等等，•第二段则按照提纲中的第十点重点分析造成个人危

机的起因，主要有自身处理事物能力不足，外部环境较为不利，以及运

气不佳等等；第三段则根据提纲中第二点提出应对个人危机的方法，要

根据第二段中的起因来提应对方法，可以写需要个人有坚强的意志毅力

和不懈的努力奋斗，积极改善外部环境，善于抓住机遇；第四段可以适

当

发挥，进——步阐明自己的观点，并提出希望。

当然，也可以按照提纲就写两段，只要说清问题即可。

[3]Thereareseveralreasons解析：作文标题是“论名著的改编“，根据

outline的要求，文章的重点应该放在分析这种“名著改编热”现象背后的

原因上。这是典型的“简要介绍社会现象一分析现象背后的原因一发表

自己对这种现象的看法”类作文。

为什么有这么多名著被改编?要说清背后的理由，不是一件容易的事、准

备动笔前，一定先列出几条理由来，然后对这些理由加以整合。范文从

3个方面分析理由：首先，随着时代（技术）进步，一些新媒体应运而生，

人们有一种通过这些新媒介了解传统经典的愿望，所以就会有名著的改

编；最后，人们改编经典可以满足不同背景的人们的需要。

AnalySiS

[1]介绍名著改编热这种社会现象。

[2]具体说明改编的方式，（十）“电影、电视、网络游戏”为代表，内容具

体，更有说服力。

[3]引导原因的常用句型。

[4][51first,second引出不同理由的常用信号问,层次分明。

[4]从新媒介的山现说明改编之必要。

[5]从不同读者需要的角度说明名著改编之必要。
