Make a commitment to your readers.● A commitment introduces readers to a topic by promising to supply moreinformation.幻灯片13Writing●Example●…. I’d like to suggest a way that our firm can also contribute to this civic project.●The writer gives his audience the necessary background information about thecivic project, then commits himself to explaining his proposal.幻灯片14Writing● 2. Make a direct announcement of your intensions.●For a more formal paper, you may want to write a particularlystraightforward announcement in your opening paragraph, especially inapplied essays.幻灯片15Writing●Example●….. I’m writing to apply for the position advertised in Chinadaily.●….. Of all the developments of atomic physics, two possibilitiesaffect our future more than any other: electricity produced bythe fission(裂变) process and annihilation (灭绝)by nuclearstrike.幻灯片16Writing● 3. Ask a question● A third strategy is to pose a question that highlights a problemor piques readers’curiosity.●Not only can questions provide a tantalizing (着急) lead-in, butthey also make commitments.幻灯片17Writing●Example●What makes a good challenge? This question seems deceptively simple.However, for millions of students and parents who each year hope to choose“the right school”from a seemingly endless list of colleges and universities, theanswer rarely is simple.●The writer leads off with the central question she will answer in her article.幻灯片18Writing● 4. Focus on key facts●Another good anchor is the statement of an important fact that clues thereaders into what your topic is going to be and gives them the base ofinformation that they need to continue with their reading, especially in anargument paper.●You may talk about the other opinions and elicit your stand.幻灯片19Writing●An effective concluding paragraph for a paper should give your readers thesense that you have brought the paper to a satisfactory conclusion, that you have left no loose ends or unanswered questions.●Here are 3 patterns that make for satisfying endings.幻灯片20Writing● 1. Make a recommendation when one is appropriate.●Such a recommendation should grow out of the issue you have beendiscussing.幻灯片21Writing●Example●When you decide to change your eating habit, your motto should be “Eat better”,not “Eat Perfectly”.● A conclusion from a paper on nutrition幻灯片22Writing● 2. Summarize the main points you have made.●You can bring your paper to an effective close by reemphasizing you mainpoints (though not in precisely the same words you have used before) andclosing with a wind-up sentence.幻灯片23Writing●Example●…the bottom line is that tips are part of a waiter’s pay, and if you don’t tip, you’ve stolen part of his or her labor.● A conclusion from a paper in which the writer argues convincingly that restaurantcustomers should tip their waiters.幻灯片24Writing● 3. Link the end to the beginning●You may tie your conclusion back to your beginning in a way that makes akind of frame for the paper and unifies it.幻灯片25Writing●Example●Opening●An electrical engineer named Karl was trying to find out what was causingthe static….●Closing●If Karl had not stumbled onto the static in the Milky Way…..。
Doctor’s Dilemma: Treat or Let Die?Medical advances in wonder drugs, daring surgical procedures, radiation therapies, and intensive-care units have brought new life to thousands of people. Yet to many of them, modern medicine has become a double-edged sword.特效药、冒险的手术、放疗以及重症监护等方面医学进步使成千上万人获得了新生。
然而，对于多数人来说，现代医学成了一把双刃剑。
Doctor’s power to treat with an array of space-age techniques has outstripped the body’s capacity to heal. More medical problems can be treated, but for many patients, there is little hope of recovery. Even the fundamental distinction between life and death has been blurred.医生可以用各式各样的太空时代的医疗技术治疗疾病，而病人康复的能力与之相比却相形见绌。
可以治疗的疾病越来越多，而对于许多病人而言，康复的希望非常渺茫。
甚至生死之间的界限也变得模糊不清了。
Many Americans are caught in medical limbo, as was the South Korean boxer Duk Koo Kim, who was kept alive by artificial means after he had been knocked unconscious in a fight and his brain ceased to function. With the permission of his family, doctors in Las Vegas disconnected the life-support machines and death quickly followed.许多美国人像韩国拳击手金得九一样身陷医学困境。
