Answer 1

Outer Space Exploration, YES or NO?
The other day at a class meeting we had an argument over whether it was necessary to carry out outer space exploration.
Some of us held it important to research outer space because, first of all, people can get a better understanding of outer space through their exploration. Second, new resources can be found there for human use. Third, this exploration can possibly bring about new living space for human life.
However, others thought very differently. They said this kind of exploration is much too costly. Besides, it is very dangerous for astronauts to do such work.
In my opinion, people should be pioneering(先驅的；開創(chuàng)的)and therefore such exploration of outer space is worth trying out.

試題分析：
本文屬于陳述正反方觀點的議論文作文，主題是是否有必要進行太空探險，題目給出了大部分要點，也要考生給出自己的觀點。文章結構清晰，先是介紹贊同的觀點，然后是反對的觀點，最后是自己的觀點，要求考生用地道的英語表達自己的觀點，要求觀點明確，駕馭語言的能力強，選擇詞匯的時候要選擇相對高級的詞匯，也要運用多種句型，讓文章更有變化。難度在于選擇合適的詞匯和句型表達文章需要的意思，可以變換使用一些容易駕馭的句子或者詞匯實現(xiàn)同樣的目的。在寫作的時候要運用合適的連接詞把要點串聯(lián)起來，使文章成為一個整體。
