Answer 1

 
One possible version：
Happiness
Happiness means different things to different people. For example, some students believe that if they have much money or large possessions, they will be happy. They believe that they will be able to do anything they want to if they have much money. Some students think that they should be in good health, and do whatever they like. Many students wish to have much wealth from their parents. In this way, they don’t have to work hard, and they can own everything.
I don’t agree with the above points. I don’t think money means happiness. We can’t buy many of the things with money, such as health, happiness and knowledge. I value knowledge, which makes me happy, for I can do much for mankind with knowledge. Although different people value happiness differently, my “wealth” of happiness is in my study.

试题分析：本篇书面表达要求根据图表提示信息讲述人们不同的幸福观，以及表达自己的看法，所以从文章结构上可以采用两段式，一段写别人的看法，一段写自己的观点。其次，因为图表提示信息较少，所以要适当发挥，补充足够内容。而且在写作时还要注意连接词的使用，以使文章表述自然流畅，上下衔接自然。此外，在时态方面要注意使用一般现在时。
【亮点说明】作者在文章开头提出中心，然后用三个相似的句式some students believe that；Some students think that；Many students wish to介绍了三种不同的幸福观，语言流畅自然。在第二段作者讲述了自己对幸福的看法，反驳了以上错误的观点。这样的结构布局不仅把要点全面展示出来，而且使得文章结构清晰，条理分明。此外，宾语从句that if they have much money or large possessions, they will be happy；定语从句,which makes me happy, for I can do much for mankind with knowledge.让步状语从句Although different people value happiness differently, 等多种句式的运用也使文章亮点纷呈。
