为了提高
If you were asked to send one thing representing your country to an international exhibition, what would you choose? Why? Use specific reasons and details to explain your choice.
If I were asked to send one thing representing my country to an international exhibition, I would send something unexpected: television shows. These programs would best represent my country to the outside world who may not be familiar with my society. They show how the citizens of my country live..
The dramas on television are very realistic. They show how people in different parts of the country go about their daily lives. They show jobs and work, crime, and people’s general attitude towards others and their interactions. The dramas also show how people in various economic groups dress, what kinds of houses they have, and what kinds of education is available to them.
The comedies indicate what kind of sense of humor my people have. Even though the situations are exaggerated, they reflect how my culture deals with common human situations. People everywhere understand the pressures of work, the joy of love and the compassion of friends and family.
The documentaries show what issues we’re concerned about and how we want to resolve them. Some documentaries tell stories from the past. Others look into the future. Still others examine our political system, its failures and its successes.
Television is a common cultural experience. It reflects my country’s reality as well as its dreams, aspirations and hopes. I think it would be the perfect way to show what my county is like.
满分要素剖析
一、 语言表达
本文行文流畅,逻辑清晰,摒弃了一贯被用来承上启下的句式和文章结构,显得文章简洁有力,读来面面俱到,一气呵成。文章中,作者还大量使用了排比句式,使得文章整齐而有气势,强调内容得以突出,又不会使人感到单调。
1. These programs would best represent my county to the outside world who may not be familiar with my society. 此句中,who引导的从句用来进一步说明outside world,显得完整且周全。
2. They show how people in different parts of the country go about their daily lives. They show jobs and work, crime, and people’s general attitude towards others and their interactions. The dramas also show how people in various economic groups dress, what kinds of houses they have, and what kinds of education is available to them. 作者使用了三个整齐的句首重复排比句,并且层层递进,增强了语言气势,加强了表达效果,使得论述详尽,条理清晰。尤其是最后一个长句子中套用三个并列的短从句,显得句式更加丰富多样。
3. People everywhere understand the pressures of work, the joy of love and the compassion of friends and family. 此句中工整的三个并列宾语使得语言优美富有变化性。
4. Others look into the future. Still others examine our political system, its failures and its successes. 此句中Others do sth., still others do sth. 表示有人做什么,还有人做什么。体现出了作者多样的语言表达能力。
5. It reflects my country’s reality as well as its dreams, aspirations and hopes. 此句中四个短小的并列词被巧妙的连接起来,高度总结并概括了全文的观点,即点出了dreams, aspirations and hopes。实属画龙点睛之笔。
二、 逻辑结构
文章采用正正正的大正论述结构,分别从戏剧、喜剧、纪录片的这三个角度来论述的,简单易懂,结构清晰。文章每一个段落内都是总分结构,非常中规中矩,而且举了一些生活中的例子,使得论证逻辑严谨,内容丰富。
