    Question
    Directions: Read the question below. You have 30 minutes to plan, write and revise your essay. Typically, an effective essay will be at least 300 words long.
    Question:
    Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? To protect young children from coming into contact with unsuitable online material, parents should not allow them to use the Internet.

选项

答案 I disagree with the statement. In my opinion, young children should be allowed to use the Internet. The Internet is one of the history’s greatest inventions. It has proven to be one of the most useful tools known to men. With just a couple of clicks, information from all over the world is available to all. The Internet is not only an instant source of news from around the world, but it is also an enormous source of knowledge and wisdom. It is, therefore, very important that children learn how to use the Internet from a young age. Teaching children how to use the Internet from an early age will greatly help with their education and all round development. However, it is very important that young children be protected from unsuitable websites and software. There are many websites on the Internet which are definitely not suitable for young children. Some of them contain adult contents and others are too violent or frightening to be viewed by a child. There is also the danger that, through the use of online chat rooms, a child could come into contact with a dangerous individual. It is, therefore, extremely important that a child be protected from unsuitable material on the Internet. There are different ways to achieve this. Firstly, a parent could insist on only letting the child use the Internet under adult supervision. This would ensure that the child would not arrive at any undesirable locations on the web. While the parent is supervising, he or she could also tutor the child on how to use the Internet. Another way parents could protect their children is through the use of Internet firewalls and software that block websites with adult or violent contents. This option would allow the child to use the Internet without supervision. Lastly, parents could ensure that their children learn about the Internet at school under the supervision of a teacher.

解析     这是独立写作题。根据写作的评分标准,要想在这道题上得满分的话,必须满足以下四个条件:第一,准确把握了主题;第二,举例明确、恰当、合理;第三,上下文一致且具有连贯性;第四,恰当地使用了丰富的词语、句子和习惯用语。在写作的时候要注意做到以上四点,这是写作的原则。我们来看一下参考答案。问题是应不应该允许儿童上网,回答是应该允许儿童上网。
    作者在第一段里阐明了自己的立场并说明了几条理由,指出使用因特网不但可以方便地查找信息,而且是全世界新闻的来源,是智慧和知识的源泉,最后主张应该从小进行因特网教育。第二段里指出了因特网给孩子带来的几点危害,这些也是持反对观点的人之所以反对的理由。在写作的时候,像这样把自己的主张和相反的观点进行分析,并找出反对理由的解决方案也是一种写作方法。最后两段里提出应该保护儿童不受这些危害,并提出了三种解决方案。这篇文章比较符合上面提出的四个条件。
