Answer 1

Can star signs guide our lives?
After learning star signs, our class had a hot discussion about if star signs could guide our lives.
Some students think star sighs are the part of the western culture and it is interesting to learn about star
signs. It is a fashion, too. You can learn about yourself better by learning about star signs.
However, other students think we should believe science. What the star signs say is not true. Success in
life is from our hard work. It doesn’t depend on star signs.
I think that we should have our own opinions. We shouldn’t believe whatever the star signs say. To
succeed, we must try our best to do things well and achieve our dream by ourselves.

试题分析：这篇作文要求我们就星座是否会引导我们的生活这个问题展开讨论，将学生们的讨论结果用正确的英语表达出来。通过分析可知，这篇作文主要应有三个方面的内容，首先有些学生赞同这种观点，他们的原因是什么；其次是不赞同的学生们的原因；最后要发表自己的观点。这样来看，本篇文章的结构非常的简单，所以写作时要注意整个文章的结构，分清主次。另外，我们还需注意多用好的句型和短语，使文章的意思连贯，表达流畅。
【亮点说明】这篇范文书写认真仔细，内容完整，层次分明。文章的结构大体可分为三个部分。首先是点名了主题，这是文章的开头，题目中已给出。接下来分成三段表达，第一段是一些持赞同态度的学生们的观点，他们为什么赞同这件事；然后是持反对意见的学生们的观点以及他们的原因；最后作者发表了自己的观点，观点明确。另外这篇短文表达也比较流畅，注意了长短句的结合，时文章有节奏感。使用了较多比较好的句式，使文章意思连贯。如it is interesting to learn about star signs、You can learn about yourself better by learning about star signs、What the star signs say is not true、We shouldn’t believe whatever the star signs say等。
