以常考的教育类独立写作为例为大家呈现一篇完整满分范文及其写作思路
Do you agree or disagree with the following statement:
All university students should be required to take basic science courses even if it is not the field of their study.

开头段
University education has been long taken as elite education where students can take four-year-time to delve deeper into subjects they are majored or interested in and become experts in respective fields. However, it is also advocated that university education has developed gradually toward mass education. Therefore, when it comes to whether all undergraduates should be required to take basic science courses, people may take different standpoints. I myself prefer the idea that taking basic science courses should not be a requirement for all university students.
第一句以讲“大学教育的作用”来开头,用转折道出“大学教育似乎开始往大众教育方向发展”这一现象,往后自然而然的引出与此相关的一个有争议的问题(即本题题目),最后顺理成章的提出了“我”的观点——不赞同。

童老师说
1.开头段的万能写法之一是“由抽象到具象,话题由大到小。
这样能保证开头段和文章主题直接相关,后面推进就顺其自然了。
2.当题目中出现例如“all”等绝对性词汇,一般写反驳更容易。
接下来分3段开始论证。
首先,教育类话题往往可以确定两大论证方向:“学生”和“学校”,再仔细分析题目中给出的信息(已加粗标红),找准具体的切入点。

论证段1
For one thing, the whole reason of elective system in universities is to entitle students the rights and opportunities to choose courses that are relevant to their majors and those they are interested in. Basic science courses might be highly relevant and recommendable for students whose majors are science-related, whereas students majored in humanities, communication or fine arts may find taking science courses not that helpful in the fields they specialize in. So it is more advisable for undergraduates to choose courses in accordance with their own needs and preferences.
☞从“个人兴趣”入手:
大学的选课系统是为了让学生们选择与自己专业相关或自己感兴趣的课程。因此,basic science不一定是所有学生都喜爱的。

论证段2
For another, while selecting courses, factors like whether those courses would be informative and enlightening, or whether those courses would help them with their future career choices would all be taken into consideration. Obviously, science-related jobs are not always listed as first priorities for newly graduates. Taking myself as an example, I majored in English language and literature. When I start hunting jobs, I would prefer positions like English teachers, translators, editors and alike, all of which do not need science skills at all. So taking basic science courses would probably be of little use to me, and also to many students like me.
☞从“职业发展”入手:
选课时需考虑的一大因素是该课程是否对学生的未来职业有帮助。论述时只需用“我”的一个例子,就能由小及大,清楚阐明观点。

论证段3
Admittedly, it is beyond doubt that basic science courses are useful for many undergraduates. It is just not all majors and all jobs are overlapping in science aspects, so those courses would not be equally beneficial or helpful for all students. With limited time and energy, students should be advised to make reasonable arrangement of time and choose courses that they can benefit most.
☞从“大学教育”入手:
这段俗称“让步段”,当你想不出其他切入点时,可以采用让步写法。
但这里要【注意】:
让步段不能光说虽然A好但是B更好,中间需要适当加入一些细节(比如标红部分),以免看起来像是车轱辘话来回说。

结尾段
From what I have discussed above, we may easily come to the conclusion that asking all university students to take basic science courses is not a feasible or favorable scheme.
简单收尾即可,但是需注意同义替换,尽量不要用之前用过的词和句子。
