　　Advantages and Disadvantages of Electronic Dictionary

　　1. 电子辞典的优点

　　2. 电子辞典的缺点

　　3. 我的结论

　　【范文】

　　The discussion about electronic dictionaries has never stopped in the past few years. Let's have a look at its advantages and disadvantages before drawing the final conclusion.

　　The biggest advantage of an electronic dictionary is its convenience. Whenever you meet new words or expressions, you can know the meaning quickly. What's more, with the development of science and technology, electronic dictionaries are becoming more and more advanced: they can pronounce the words clearly, provide sample sentences to illustrate word usage and store difficult words for special memorization. Last but by no means the least, electronic dictionaries are becoming cheaper and cheaper, and more and more students can afford them.

　　However, the negative effects are also obvious. To begin with, some students rely too much on the electronic dictionary—they never put their heart into learning new words and expressions. In the second place, some explanations are neither complete nor accurate, which are quite misleading. Finally, new technical inventions do not necessarily lead to progress in learning. Diligence is always the decisive factor, because "there is no royal road to learning".

　　Up until now, we can see it clearly that an electronic dictionary is not beneficial or harmful in itself. The key lies in the user—so long as we can make proper use of it, it can be most helpful to us in many respects.

　　【点评】

　　范文首段指出，有关电子辞典的讨论从来没有停止过;第二段阐述优点，即电子辞典便于查询，而且随着技术的发展，电子辞典功能也越来越多，另外价钱也越来越低;第三段提出缺点，电子辞典让学生产生依赖心理，而且有些解释不准确，另外技术的进步不一定带来学习上的进步;最后一段总结，电子辞典本身无对错，关键在于正确使用以便为我们服务。

　　第二段第三句中的illustrate表示“用图或例子来说明”;第三点中的afford表示“买得起”。第三段第一点中的rely too much on表示“过分依赖”;put one's heart into doing sth.表示“专心致志于某事”;第二点中的accurate表示“精确的”，misleading表示“使人误解的”;第三点第二句中的decisive factor表示“决定因素”。

　　Teenagers' Studying Abroad

　　1. 现在有很多青少年出国留学

　　2. 有些人认为这种做法是有益的

　　3. 我认为这种观点是不对的

　　【范文】

　　Recently it seems that among the students who choose to study abroad, there are more and more-teenagers who study in high schools or even elementary schools. Many people, especially the parents, think it will certainly do good to their chidren because the independent life will make them learn confidence and perseverance. Moreover, the quality of overseas education is often higher, thus the child stands a better chance of entering a better university and getting a better job in the future.

　　After careful consideration, I have to say the above view is more than biased. On the one hand, early independent life is not necessarily good, if the child cannot receive proper guidance and tender care from both teachers and parents. On the other hand, the educational quality is also a question—too many foreign schools aim at earning money. When the children come back, who can guarantee that they can adapt to the fierce competition here?

　　We can see clearly that although teenagers' studying abroad may bring favorable results, there are still a lot to worry about. It seems necessary for young students to make a careful investigation before going abroad.

　　【点评】

　　第一段指出当前某种普遍的做法，之后分两点阐述人们支持这种做法的原因;第二段首句鲜明地指出自己反驳的意见，然后分两点来阐述理由;最后一段进行总结，并请当事人在做出决定前多加斟酌。

　　范文首句点题，指出青少年留学这一现象，并给出支持者的理由，即独立的生活会教会他们自信和坚持不懈，而且国外的教学水平会让学生进入更好的大学、找到更好的工作。第二段给出反对理由。首先，早期独立不一定是件好事。另外，太多的国外学校的目标是挣钱，所以它们的教学质量是令人质疑的。末段总结说青少年留学可能会带来好处，但令人担忧的问题也很多。

　　第一段第三句中的stand a better chance of表示“有更好的机会做某事”。第二段首句中的biased表示“偏激的，存有偏见的”;第三句中的aim at表示“目的在于”;第四句中的guarantee表示“保证”，adapt to表示“适应”，fierce表示“激烈的”，修饰competition(竞争)。
