写作焦点：对比类写作
对比类写作是近几年高考写作中的一个重要的考查形式。我们先来关注一下近几年此类写作的考查内容。
1999年
根据所给图画介绍学校发生的变化
2001年
比较学校减负前后学生生活学习发生的变化
2002年
对“公园要不要收门票”的两种观点的对比
2014年春考（北京）
根据图画所提供的人民生活过去二十年和现在人们生活的对比。
不管是在人们生活中还是在学生学习中，对比已经是人们分析问题和解决问题的重要方法和手段，这就不难想象“对比类写作”在考试中占有重要地位的原因了。
对比类写作的基本特点：
1. 文章条理性很强，层次分明，语言简洁，用词准确。
2. 常用时态：一般过去时；一般现在时；现在完成时；
3. 语态常用被动语态，有时用虚拟语气。
4. 对比类写作一般有两种方式：
(1)集中比较或对比（集中说明一个对象的诸种特征）
(2)逐点比较或对比（一条一条地说明两者的异同）
5. 常用关联词: compared with…; ;be different from; unlike…; ;on the other hand;
on the contrary; just ;
对比类写作的类型：
1. 今昔对比（1999； 2001年；2014年的高考写作）: 全文时态一般都是现在时和过去时
在写这类作文的时候，开头第一句话很关键。
写作格式：提出的主题句---过去情况的描述--现在情况的描述---总结句
当然，也可以对今、昔进行逐条对比。
2. 正反观点对比（2002年高考写作）：时态一般是同一时态
这类写作是对同一件事情表达出不同的看法，也就是正反两种观点。
写作格式：提出问题---介绍两种不同观点---对两种不同观点的论据逐项进行对比（这里也可以采用先陈述一种观点再陈述另一种观点的方法）---结尾加上自己的观点并阐明理由。
3. 数据分析对比：时态一般是两种：一般现在时和一般过去时
这类对比写作主要是通过对数据的分析比较得出某种结论或说明某种现象。此类作文切忌把所给的数据简单罗列，而关键是要通过对所给数据进行分析比较得出某物增长了多少和减少了多少。最终导致了什么现象，得出什么样的结论。此类文章最好使用逐个比较。
写作格式：提出所要说明的现象--- 数据对比---对出结论。
特别提醒：写作中要注意对比时不要单调地使用同一句型,要稍有变化。并且要注意过渡句的恰当使用。当然，最后的总结句更要写得精彩，也就是根据这种现象做出自己对此类问题的理解和判断。
4. 经典句型：
过去与现在对比常用句型：
I used to read the newspaper, but now I prefer to watch TV.
He liked to collect stamps when he was young, although now he enjoys skiing.
Ten years ago, there was only one middle school here, yet now there are five.
In the past ten years, my hometown has taken on a new look.
In the past ten years, my hometown has greatly changed.
In the past ten years, great changes have taken place in my hometown.
正反观点对比：
We’ve had the discussion about whether….
Opinions are divided on the question. On one hand, ……. On the other hand……
Everything has two sides. In my opinion.
I prefer working indoors as I believe that bad weather will never bother me. While just the opposite, my neighbor enjoys working outdoors.
写作整体框架：
点明主题
详细论述
阐述观点
典例精析：
2002年全国高考题：最近，你校同学正在参加某英文报组织的一场讨论。讨论的主题是：公园要不要收门票？请你根据下表所提供的信息，给报社写一封信，客观地介绍讨论情况,并简述你的看法。
60%的同学认为：
40％的同学认为
1．不应收门票
2．公园是公众休闲的地方
3．如收票，需建大门、围墙，会影响城市形象
1．应收门票，但票价不宜高
2．支付园林工人工资
3．购新花木
注意：1.词数：100左右。2．参考词汇：门票－entrance fee
解题思路：
1、 仔细审题，确定文体：属于对比类写作中的正反观点对比、叙议结合
2、 根据对比类写作框架列出主要句型
点明主题：We had a discussion about whether an entrance fee should be charged for parks.
详细对比：Opinions are divided on the question:
60% of the students are against the idea of entrance fee.
A. People need a place where they can rest and enjoy themselves.
B. It will become do harm to the appearance of a city. （A方观点）
40% of the students are for the idea of entrance fee.
A. The fee can be used to pay gardeners and other workers.
B. The fee can be used to buy plants and trees. （B方观点）
阐述观点：I agree with the opinion that the fees should be charged, however with a reasonable price. （‘我’的观点）
3、 注意细节的描述，有时需要有理由的支撑。这样可以使文章更具有说服力。
例如A 方观点，
60% of the students are against the idea of entrance fee.
A. People need a place where they can rest and enjoy themselves because charging entrance fees will no doubt keep some people away.
B. It will do harm to the appearance of a city when the walls and gates are built for charging fees.
4、 注意句子的灵活运用：
例如B方观点：
40% of the students are for the idea of entrance fee.
A. The fee can be used to pay gardeners and other workers.
B. The fee can be used to buy plants and trees.
40% think that fees should be charged because you need money to pay gardeners and other workers， and to buy plants and young trees. They suggest，however，fees should be charged low.
对于主语一样的两个句子我们就可以用合并句子的方法使得句子变得很简洁明了，干净利落。
5、 注意连接词和过渡词的使用：
整体框架的过渡词的使用：
......主题句…….On one hand, …A方观点…
… On the other hand ….B方观点…
… In short, …‘我’的观点…
表示某一方常用的过渡词有：
And ; moreover; what’s more; besides; furthermore; Meanwhile etc.
双方之间衔接的过渡词有：
However; but; on the other hand; on the contrary; Just the opposite
6、 参考范文：
Dear Editor，

备考建议：
1. 在“今昔对比”的对比类写作中，一定要把握时态的运用，时态通常是现在时和过去时。
2. 在“正反对比”的对比类写作中，要注意观点鲜明，立场明确，在对立的两种观点中，只能同意其中一种观点，切不可模棱两可，左右摇摆。
3. 在高考写作中充分运用好简单句是很必要的，但要想一下子抓住阅卷老师的心，就要尝试使用复杂句型。因为复杂句型的运用会使得句子变得简洁明了、干净利落。同时也显示了一定的英文功底，但对于英语成绩中等或中等偏下的学生来说，为保险起见，建议多使用简单句，不要弄巧成拙。
4. 在行文中，要注意连接词和过渡词的运用，这样会使文章看起来紧凑，连贯，逻辑性强。因而同学们在平时学习的过程中，就要注意关联词的搜集。

How nice to hear from you again. You want to know what is going on in schools in China? In short, things have begun to improve since schools were called on to reduce learning load.

I can follow my own interests such as reading books，visiting museums，and taking computer lessons. In the evenings I can watch news on TV or read newspapers. What’s more, I can go to bed earlier. As far as I know, everyone is happy about this new arrangement of things.
Best wishes,
