25、的商业运作，无论对经济还是观众都是有益的；应该减少明星真人秀，因其会使我们进入全民娱乐时代，不利于提升国民素质。可根据以下思路展开写作： 思路 1：不应该减少明星真人秀。 首先，很多节目会促使观众关注之前忽略或不够重视的东西，比如亲子教育、生活节俭、体育精神等。其次，明星的 “名人效应 ”会提高一些偏远地区的曝光率，推动当地旅游业以及经济的发展。 思路 2：应该减少明星真人秀。 太多的明星真人秀会造成全民娱乐的状态，不利于国民素质的提升。很多节目专注于 “秀 ”，通过曝光明星隐私、故意增加明星之间的冲突等来夺人眼球，节目毫无质量可言且容易对观众造成负面影响。另外，从成本上来说，明星真人秀成本太
26、大，而有时收效却甚微，不如将这些资源投入到更具教育性、更有意义的节目中。 范文选择思路 1。分别以 “爸爸去哪儿 ”和 “奔跑吧，兄弟 ”为例，分析明星真人秀给观众和经济增长带来的益处。最后指出，根据优胜劣汰的规律，不必刻意减少明星真人秀的数量，因为不好的节目自然会被淘汰。 【知识模块 】 作文 3 【正确答案】 Which One Is the Key to Environmental Protection, Technology or Awareness?

32、 a civilized and advanced mind. 【试题解析】 本题虽是一个对比选择型题目，但核心问题并不是观点的选择而是观点的论证，因为无论是技术还是意识，对环保而言都很重要，关键是要分析各自的优点并加以比较，从中选择一个更重要的。针对该题目，可根据以下思路展开写作： 思路 1：环保的关键在于环保意识。 首先，要强调人自身对环境的影响，此处可借种种不爱护环境的行为和态度举例论证。其次，从成本上来说，开发技术的成本远远高于提高人们的环保意识。 思路 2：环保的关键在于环保技术。 当今的环境问题极其复杂，是多方面因素造成的，比如雾霾，不是仅靠不开车、 不抽烟就能解决的，而是要通过开
33、发清洁能源，提高工厂的节能效率等才能取得突破性进展。其次，由于国民自身的多样性和差异性，提升环保意识并非易事。经济的发展也会从客观上对环境造成一定破坏，并非提升环保意识就能解决，这就凸显了环保技术的重要性。 范文选取思路 1进行写作。从自身经历、消费主义两方面着手，论证环保意识的重要性。再比较分析开发环保技术和提升环保意识的成本。最后得出结论：技术只有建立在意识的基础上才能发挥作用。 【知识模块】 作文 4 【正确答案】 On Food Safety Nowadays, the problem of food safety has aroused more and more concern a
