答案

Dear Li Fang,
I’m writing to you to share my opinions with you on studying abroad.
Attending schools abroad has many advantages. In the first place, we can widen our vision and broaden our minds. Second, while studying in a foreign country, we can travel widely, visiting famous scenic spots and making friends with the local people. Thirdly, we can use the foreign language in our daily life so that our proficiency in the language may be improved quickly.
However, as everything has two sides, there are also some disadvantages in attending a foreign university. The most serious problem is the language barrier. Most of the students who are ready to go abroad do not have adequate proficiency in the language spoken there. As a result, on arriving there, they will find it difficult to understand what the instructors are saying, Besides, due to lack of knowledge of the customs and ways of life of the local people, they may run into trouble in dealing with various situations. Therefore, misunderstandings often arise. Furthermore, the cost of living is much higher than that in your country.
Therefore, given an opportunity to attend a school abroad, one must consider both sides of the factors carefully before making up his mind. On the whole, it is a good thing to go and study abroad, particularly when the subject is very weak or not available in your country. I hope my suggestions will help you make a good decision.
Yours,
Jack       

解析

试题分析：考察正反观点类议论文写作。本文讨论的话题是出国留学的利弊；要点在文章中都给了出来。考生可以在个人意见部分做适当的发挥，建议对方仔细考虑利弊，从自身实际出发。最后可以建议对方出国学习，并与中国的国内文化相结合。要求考生在保证内容要点全部概括的基础上可以充分发挥自己的想象，进而用自己的语言来表达某种观点或看法，增添了写作的灵活性，同时能较好地考查考生的想象能力和英语语言表达能力。
点评：本文题型是考生非常熟悉的正反观点类的议论文，在平时的练习中也有相应的模板。审题时注意本文使用一般现在时，人称以第三人称为主，发表个人意见时使用第一人称。本文的要点均已给出，考生需要使用合适的连接词把孤立的要点联系成文。如for one thing, for another; besides, firstly, secondly, last but not least等。也要使用一些高级的词汇词组如 be supposed to do sth, benefit 等以提升文章的档次分。在文章红可以适当使用一至两句谚语如：Every coin has two sides等可以大大提高文章的文采，提高获得高分的可能性。
