Question

2012年秋，新生入学伊始，北京、上海等地多所学校开出“苹果班”教程，学生上课时使用iPad回答问题，放学后家庭作业也需要用iPad来完成。对此不少家长产生疑虑，认为加重了经济负担；孩子也可能沉迷游戏、影响学习。但也有不少家长反映，用高科技教学，不仅能提高孩子的兴趣，更能减少“拉箱书包”给孩子造成的负担。请围绕这个话题写一篇英语短文，并谈谈你的看法。

注意：词数为100-120词左右。

Answer 1

Recently, iPads are being used for teaching in many schools in Beijing and Shanghai. People have different opinions on it.

Many people are for the new measure because they think that iPads are light to carry and convenient to use. The students today are familiar with electronic products, which can help to arouse their interest in learning. However, others argue that reading on the screen is harmful to students’ eyes in the long run. They may also lose their ability to write by pressing the keys instead of writing with pens.

In my view, students should always write with pens. Meanwhile, electronic products can be used in class to make learning more interesting.

【解析】

试题分析：该篇提纲类作文，题材贴近学生的生活，现实感强。因为文章要点要涉及到支持方、反对方及作者本人对“苹果班”的看法和态度，且有一定原因的说明，所以行文一定要注意其逻辑性，要将文章清晰且有条理地展现在读者面前。

亮点说明：该范文采用三段式，文章第一段简述了背景，第二段为文章重点段落主要叙述支持者和反对者的态度和观点，在第三段作者者简要地提出了自己对此的观点，主次分明地将所有写作要点一一展现在读者面前。文中“Recently,”“However,”“In my view, ”的使用使得文章层次分明、条理清晰、逻辑性强。而且一些句式和短语的准确、灵活地使用让读者感受到作者较强的驾驭语言的能力，例如“Pads are light to carry and convenient to use.”“are familiar with”“, which can help to arouse their interest in learning.”“is harmful to”“in the long run”“make learning more interesting”等等。总之，该篇范文确为考场上的上乘之作！
