99、申硕英语考试真题及参考答案第 15 页,共 16 页附 2:写作指导一、写作思路作文标题明确“Ways to Live a Simpler Life”与作文说明上下呼应“列举几个你认为可以从简生活、重塑人生的几种方式”,所以此篇作文的核心是要列举出“几个可以使生活简单的方式或方法”,言外之意是通过改进现有的一些生活方式使其变得简单。列举的方式可以是大概念的,比如从降低生活期待使生活更简单,而不是为了遥不可及的欲望而让自己的生活更忙碌和繁琐,甚至失去了生活方向;也可以从生活中的小事论述,如减少沉迷于智能手机上的各种新闻和公众号的推送,使自己处于更简单的生活节奏和方式。二、段落展开第一段:现象/现状说明段:现代生活过于繁复,各种琐事耗费经历和时间所造成的后果,因此我们需要保持简单的生活。第二段:具体方法列举段:阐述从简生活的几种方式,列举两到三点原因。第三段:归纳结论段:重申自己的观点:因为从简生活很重要,因此我们需要提倡这样的生活。注意:不要通篇写“简单生活的重要性”,因为题目提纲明确“列举简单生活的几种方式”。今年的作文题与 2012 年 My Favorite Way of Keeping Fit 的写作思路类似。也可以套用问题解决型作文模板的框架,解决了现有生活方式带来的问题而我们的生活更简单。2019年同等学力申硕英语考试真题及参考答案第 16 页,共 16 页
