After-class Activities
Nowadays, after-class activities are becoming more and more popular in high schools.
Nowadays, after-class activities are becoming more and more popular in high schools. In our school, there are various kinds of activities, for example, arts and sports. We enjoy them very much. Playing football and reading stories are my favorites which do me lots of good. Besides building my body and enriching my knowledge, they also free me from the heavy work of study.
Here I have some suggestions.To students, you’d better choose the activities which interest you and suit you; to schools, they should organize more activities for students and leave students more time for activities by giving them less homework.
Dear friends, please actively take part in after-class activities, which will not only make your school life colorful, but also improve your learning.
【解析】
这是一篇观点给定型英文稿件写作。本题已经列好了提纲，按提纲来作文就是把文章的情景和内容要求分成块，以条目的形式列出以进行写作。以After-class Activities为主题，大致将文章分为三段式来架构。第一段介绍文章背景，将学校的大致活动简单概括出来。various kinds of activities各种各样的活动和do me lots of good对我好处颇多，这两句连词使用的十分恰当。for example和besides的使用也使得段落层次清晰明了。第二段阐述个人建议Here I have some suggestions，从To students和 to schools两方面说起，长短句组合避免了简单句的充斥。第三段发出倡议Dear friends，please…而使用which引导定语从句加上not only …but also…的组合套用使得最后一段亮色不少。总结：提纲作文写作要领：第一步审题，审题是否清楚是一篇书面表达成功与否的关键所在，在整个写作过程中起着决定性作用; 第二步抓中心，列要点，列出写作提纲; 第三步：选词组句，在体裁明确、中心突出、要点清晰的前提下，应该选择自己最熟悉、最有把握的词语、句型，将要点逐条表达出来; 第四步：连句成篇，在这一过程中要注意选择恰当的表示并列、递进、因果或转折意义的过渡词; 第五步：复查纠错; 第六步：书写规范，卷面整洁。

综合自测系列答案Frederick M. Hess is the director of education policy study at the American Enterprise Institute, which is a nonprofit organization that does research on many public topics. He says that a long summer vacation doesn’t make sense in today’s world.
Can American students afford to take a summer vacation? In a summer vacation, millions of children spend valuable time sending messages, watching TV, playing video games and doing shopping in the mall. They will also be putting their academic futures at risk.
Summer vacation once made sense in the past when you didn’t need an education to get a good job. But now things have changed. For today’s students, academic skills are important to students’ future success, but such skills are affected in the summer time. Many other countries don’t give children an American style summer vacation. They offer no more than seven consecutive (连续的) weeks of vacation. Most American school districts offer up to thirteen weeks. To compete in the global marketplace, Americans must be prepared to go up against international competitors.
Summer vacation also causes challenges for today’s families. In the 1960s, more than 60% of families had a stay?at?home Mum. Now, two thirds of American children live in households where every adult works. For these families, summer vacation can be more a burden than a break. Someone must watch the kids.
But the biggest problem may be how summer vacation hurts academic achievement. Researchers have found that disadvantaged students lose ground in the summer time.
Any good suggestion? Yes. A longer school year does not have to be an invitation to hard boring work. Rather, it should allow time-pressed teachers to conduct richer and more imaginative lessons. Students would have more time to devote to sports, music and the arts.
To conclude, a long summer vacation can be a great thing. But in the 21st century, it may also be outdated. （313 words）
