2012MBA联考论说文写作万能模版第一段,(100字)首先,简略的引用原文,作为一篇完整的文章,应该让看的人明白你的论证从何处引申和展开的,否则,好像是无病之呻吟,所以,思路应该是:在文章开头用100字以内简洁的引述原文,抛出自己的观点。
第二段,(100字)破题,对材料有简单的分析和引申,强化观点。
第三段,(200字)通过正面论述,通过3个短暂的排比例子,(最好古代,近代,现代:比如论坚持和毅力,李白若没有“铁棒磨成针”的精神,何来“斗酒诗百篇”;杜蒲若没有“读书破万卷”,何来“下笔若有神”,马克思若没有四十年如一日的坚持,何来资本论之闻名与世。
再如:论修养方面,试想,孔子若不注重修身,何以成为圣人,受世代敬仰;战国四公子,若不注重修身,何以有门客四千,大家都愿意为其舍生取义。
)第四段,(200字)通过反面论证,如上面的论述展开,列举3个例子。
比如,周幽王、商纣王若不贪恋酒色,何以成为千古罪人而遭人唾齿;秦烩、高俅若不残害忠良,何以成为佞臣而遗臭万年;成克杰、胡长青若不贪欲堕落,何以成为国家的罪人而抱憾终身。
第五段,(100字)点击材料论点,展开号召和呼吁,说明这中情况既然如此重要,那么,作为我们现代化的建设者,国家的栋梁,没有理由漠然处之,我们责无旁贷,“天载其苍,地屐其荒,纵有千古,横有八荒,前途似锦,来日方长”、“自信人生二百年,会当击水三千里”、“以个人数十年必死之生命,扶中华千百年不倾之大厦”。
建议:正反面的字数和重点与否,根据自己的观点和题目要有所侧重,多用三句排比,语言尽量短小精悍,最好有时能形成对仗,多使用反问句,或者假设,比如:试想,若没有,何以。
论创新,“齐白石若没有五易画风,何以自成派系而成为画坛宗师;海尔集团若没有创新的思路,何以能冲出国门而成为世界名牌。
”2012MBA论说文例文羡鱼与结网《汉书・.礼乐志》中写道:"临渊羡鱼,不如退而结网。

例如:passage41的第253题答案A,标注为(41.253.A)Passage41Neotropical coastal mangrove forests are usually“zonal,”(41.256.A)with certain mangrove species found predominantly in the seaward portion of the habitat and other mangrove species on the more landward portions of the coast.The earliest research on mangrove forests produced descriptions of species distribution from shore to land,without exploring the causes of the (5)distributions.The idea that zonation is caused by plant succession was first expressed by J.H. Davis in a study of Florida mangrove forests.(41.254)According to Davis’scheme,the shoreline is being extended in a seaward direction because of the“land-building”role of mangroves,which, by trapping sediments over time,extend the shore.(41.255)As a habitat gradually becomes more inland as the shore extends,the“land-building”species are replaced.This continuous process of (10)accretion and succession would be interrupted only by hurricanes or storm flushings. (41.256.B)Recently the universal application of Davis’s succession paradigm has been challenged.It appears that in areas where weak currents and weak tidal energies allow the accumulation of sediments, mangroves will follow land formation and accelerate the rate of soil accretion;succession will proceed according to Davis’s scheme.(41.255)&(41.256.E)But on stable coastlines,the(15)distribution of mangrove species results in other patterns of zonation;“land building”does not occur.To find a principle that explains the various distribution patterns,several researchers have looked to salinity and its effects on mangrove.While mangroves can develop in fresh water,they can also thrive in salinities as high as2.5times that of seawater.However,those mangrove (20)species found in freshwater habitats do well only in the absence of competition,thus suggesting that salinity tolerance is a critical factor in competitive success among mangrove species.Research suggests that mangroves will normally dominate highly saline regions, although not because they require salt.(41.256.C)Rather,they are metabolically efficient(and hence grow well)in portions of an environment whose high salinity excludes plants adapted to (25)lower salinities.(41.256.D)Tides create different degrees of salinity along a coastline.Thecharacteristic mangrove species of each zone should exhibit a higher metabolic efficiency at that salinity than will any potential invader,including other species of mangrove.253.The primary of the purpose of the passage is to(A)refute the idea that the zonation exhibited in mangrove forests is caused by adaption to salinity(B)describe the pattern of zonation typically found in Florida mangrove forests(C)argue that Davis’succession paradigm cannot be successfully applied to Florida mangrove forests(D)discuss hypotheses that attempt to explain the zonation of coastal mangrove forests(E)establish that plants that do well in saline forest environments requre salt to achieve maximum metabolic efficiency答案:D解析:main idea文章叙述了两个关于zonation of mangrove forests分布的假设。

论证有效性分析历年真题【2012年1月】地球的气候变化已经成为当代世界的热点,这一问题看似复杂,其实简单,只要我们运用科学原理—如爱因斯坦的相对论一一去对待,也行就会找到解决这一问题的方法。
众所周知,爱因斯坦提出相对论颠覆了人类对于宇宙和自然地常识性观念,不管是狭义相对论还是广义相对论,都揭示了宇宙间事物运动中普遍存在的相对性。
既然宇宙万物的运动都是相对的,那么我们观察问题是也应该采用相对的方法,如变换视角等等。
假如我们变化视角去看一些问题,也学会得出和一般常识完全不同的观点,例如,我们称之为灾害的那些自然现象,包括海啸、台风、暴雨等等,其实也是大自然本身的一般现象而已,从大自然的视角来看,无所谓灾害不灾害,只是当它损害了人类利益,危机了人类生存的时候,从人类的视角来看,我们才称之为灾害。
再变换一下视角,从一个更广泛的范围来看,我们人类自己也是大自然的一部分,既然我们的祖先是类人猿,而类人猿正像大熊猫、华南虎、藏羚羊、扬子鳄乃至银杏、水杉等等一样,是珍格格自然生态中的有机组成部分,那为什么我们自己就不是了呢?由此可以,人类的问题就是大自然的问题,及时人类在某一时间部分的改变了气候,也还算整个大自然系统中的一个自然问题,自然问题自然会解决,人类不必过多干预。
(提示:论证有效性分析的一般要点是:概念特别是核心概念的界定和使用是否准确并前后一致,有无各种明显的逻辑错误,该论证的依据是否支持结论,论据成立的条件是否充分等。
要注意分析的内容深度、逻辑结构和语言表达。
)【参考答案】1、爱因斯坦相对论未必是颠覆了人类关于宇宙和自然常识性观念,或许也是一种补充,缺少依据。
2、万物间的运动未必都是相对的,即使是相对的,未必采用相对的方法就一定可行。
3、由自然灾害等来概括,来作证相对论有以偏概全之嫌。
4、人也是大自然中的一部分,也不足以证明不必干预自然,让其自然解决。
5、人类的问题都是大自然的问题过于绝对,或许轻率概括。

Essay 题目权威分析--哈佛For the 2011-2012 admissions season, HBS applicants will need to respond to a total of four essay questions. Unlike the past few years in which applicants had some choice about what essay questions to respond to, this year applicants must respond to all of the questions provided. Similarly to prior years, meanwhile, applicants must be clear and concise to fit their essays within each of the essay’s 600- or 400-word limits. Let’s take a look at the essay questions for this year:1. Tell us about three of your accomplishments. (600 words)This is a variation on an essay question that has been a hallmark of the HBS application for many years, downshifting its previous request for an applicant’s “three most substantial accomplishments” to a more laid-back formulation this season. Due to its top billing, this question could be the first element of your file that the adcom reads, making this response a great opportunity to present the reader with three strong stories that introduce the major themes of your candidacy. Each accomplishment can be presented as a stand-alone section here, so you needn’t be overly concerned about composing a seamless narrative.HBS has traditionally been very impact-oriented in evaluating applicants’ credentials, so one way to determine which three accomplishments to describe in this essay is to think about the end results. Experiences in which you made a lasting and quantifiable impact can lend themselves to concise, factual narratives, and considering that each accomplishment must be described in approximately 200 words, this can be an important consideration. However, this isn’t to say that the process followed, skills gained, and lessons learned along the way aren’t important, too; highlighting an incident of personal or professional growth could offer a nice complement to some more straightforward accomplishment stories.A final point to consider is that it’s also important to select stories with an eye to balance. Harvard’s new wording takes the emphasis off maximum impressiveness, leaving prospective students with a bit more leeway to select examples that highlight a bit more range than he or she might have felt comfortable doing previously. An applicant who describes two professional successes and one extra-curricular accomplishment, or perhaps one each from the professional, academic and activities realms, can show that he or she excels in a range of settings and situations.这个题目很多年来已经成为了哈佛essay的标志,由于它被置顶为第一个题目,那么它就是adcom了解你的第一扇门,你可以在这里通过你的3个成就将你的优秀和强大展现给读者。

2012MBA英语热点阅读:摩根大通The challenges facing America’s least tainted large bank美国受损最轻的大银行面临的挑战ASK Jamie Dimon if he wants to be America’s next treasury secretary, a job for which the head of JPMorgan Chase (JPM) is a dark-horse candidate, and he clams up. Ask him about almost anything else in finance and he is far less reticent. In an industry whose leaders remain scared to lift heads above the parapet, Mr Dimon has been unusually vocal in criticising the regulatory overhaul of finance. He recently grilled Ben Bernanke, the chairman of the Federal Reserve, in public about the unintended consequences of America’s Dodd-Frank reforms.现任摩根大通(JPM)总裁的杰米•戴蒙很意外地成为了下一任美国财政部长的候选人。
当被问及是否愿意担此大任时,他就三缄其口。
无论问他关于金融的任何事,他的回答都留有余地。
在金融领域,领导者们都畏畏缩缩,默不作声,只有戴蒙敢于批判金融监管改革中出现的问题。
最近,他就公开质问美联储主席本.伯南克关于美国《多德.弗兰克改革》中可能出现的不可预期的结果。
Mr Dimon’s assertiveness is explained by both congenital self-confidence and the success of his firm. JPM came through the crisis largely unscathed, making a profit in every quarter (not even Goldman Sachs managed that). Last year it made a record $17 billion after tax. It was expected to report second-quarter profits of close to $5 billion after The Economist went to press.戴蒙的自信心和公司的成就体现了他卓越的韧性。

第二段:首先,(“不当类比”类) 文中未能将(故事/寓言)和(企业经营之道/启发)进行有效的类比。
(故事/寓言)是因为原因1 ,企业/启发是因为原因2 二者的规律也许有某种共性,但也必然有本质的区别和界限,上述论证把故事/寓言,一般化为企业/启发应对不确定性的普遍性原则。
似乎有些轻率地概括,因此,不具有客观的类比性。
第三段:其次,(“以偏概全”类)上文中对调查/个案例子的叙述也很含糊。
文中并没有提供调查/个案存在的可靠依据。
就算调查/个案是真实的,读者并不知道该项调查/个案是否具有典型性。
那也无从谈起其具有“推而广之”的代表性。
第四段:再者,(“混淆概念”类) 文中在概念的使用上也存在某些问题/(也很模糊)。
比如,在说到事件1时,上文中用的是概念1,而在说到事件2的时候,用的却是概念2。
这两个概念显然是前后不一致的,因为概念1或2不仅仅只是概念2或1。
这种概念混淆的问题,也大大削减了上文推理的严谨性和有效性。

第六段:综上所述,如果上述论证(分析)能进一步提供相应的数据/论据和相关信息,排除原文的_________论证缺陷就很有说服力了,但该文中并没有说明其他信息,所以该论证是不全面的/有缺陷的。
2012考研英语作文高级Introduction:The 2012 postgraduate entrance examination, known as the "Gaokao" for graduate studies in China, presented a unique set of challenges for students aspiring to pursue higher education. One of the most critical components of this examination was the advanced English essay writing section, which tested not only the candidates' linguistic proficiency but also their ability to construct coherent, well-argued, and culturally sensitive essays.Body Paragraph 1 - The Importance of Advanced English Essay Writing:The advanced English essay writing section is a pivotal part of the examination as it evaluates a student's command over the English language, including grammar, vocabulary, and syntax. It also gauges their critical thinking skills and their capacity to present a clear and logical argument. This section is particularly important because it cansignificantly influence the overall score and the candidate's chances of admission into their desired postgraduate program.Body Paragraph 2 - Strategies for Writing a High-Quality Essay:1. Understanding the Prompt: Before beginning the essay, itis crucial to thoroughly understand the question or prompt. Misinterpretation can lead to an off-topic essay, which will not score well.2. Planning the Essay: A well-structured essay typically includes an introduction, body paragraphs, and a conclusion. Planning these sections before writing can help ensure that the essay flows logically and covers all necessary points.3. Using a Variety of Sentence Structures: Employing a mix of simple, compound, and complex sentences can demonstrate a high level of language proficiency.4. Expanding Vocabulary: Using a wide range of vocabulary, including less common words and phrases, can enhance the essay's sophistication.5. Incorporating Examples and Evidence: Providing concrete examples and evidence to support claims strengthens the argument and makes the essay more persuasive.6. Proofreading: Time should be allocated for proofreading to correct any grammatical errors, typos, or inconsistencies in the essay.Body Paragraph 3 - Cultural Sensitivity and Language Nuances: In the 2012 examination, cultural sensitivity played a significant role in essay writing. Candidates were expected to demonstrate an understanding of cultural differences and to avoid any language that could be considered offensive or inappropriate. The use of idiomatic expressions andcolloquial language, when done correctly, can add depth to the essay but requires careful consideration to ensure it is used in the right context.Conclusion:The advanced English essay writing section of the 2012 postgraduate entrance examination was a rigorous test of a candidate's English language skills and their ability tothink critically and argue persuasively. By focusing on understanding the prompt, planning the essay structure, expanding vocabulary, incorporating examples, and ensuring cultural sensitivity, students could significantly improve their chances of writing a high-quality essay that would earn them a competitive score.。
2012年MBA MPA MPCC联考英语二阅读理解精讲篇(二)Today only one person in five in the United States lives within 50 miles of his birthplace. Since the country was first settled, Americans have moved around a great deal, and are often far away from their parents. Because they have broken ties with their past at a young age, chosen their own occupations, established their own homes and developed their own lifestyles, few American children grow up closely surrounded by grandparents, aunts, uncles and cousins as they do in Italy, Nigeria, or India, for example. This along with the fact that modern American families do not have servants has made the “baby-sitter” a vital part of the American scene. A “sitter” is someone who is hired to care for children for a specific length of time—usually relatively short—while the parents are out for an evening, going to a party or a course of study for example. Sometimes the baby-sitter is also hired for longer period, perhaps when the parents are away for a weekend. In such cases the “sitter” is likely to be a mature and motherly woman. For short periods, teen-agers, college students, nursing students, and others are commonly employed on an hourly basis.From the point of view of convenience, the best sitters are often young people who live in your apartment building or close by in the neighborhood. This gives you a chance to meet the parents and see what they are like. If an emergency occurs, young sitters can call upon their parents quickly for help; you do not have to take them far to see them home at night or pay expensive taxi fares. Another advantage is that young people living close by can usually fill in quite readily on short notice or for short periods of time.In an apartment house you can ask the superintendent for permission to post a notice for a baby-sitter by the mailboxes. This is often the best way to find out if there is anyone in the building who is interested in baby-sitting. Retired people as well as students are often glad to earn a little money in this way and can be found by such a note.1. We can infer from the first paragraph that ______.A. the American is a movable and independent nationB. the Americans are often far away from their parentsC. the Children in Italy, Nigeria, or India doesn’t feel like living with their parentsD. the Americans broke ties with their past at a young age2. A baby-sitter is a person who ______.A. helps to do houseworkB. is a cleaning womanC. looks after children while their parents are outD. takes care of babies and cooks for the family3. Who can be a baby-sitter?A. WomenB. ManC. College studentD. All the above4.

2012年MBA MPA MPACC联考写作学员八篇范文及点评《优势需要保持》(大家看一下,这个题目是否合适?题目更像是立论文,其实只要改成“优势是否需要保持?”就好了)作者通过农民因拒绝将种子卖给邻人而造成自己收成变差的事例,得出市场竞争中应该慷慨无私地把自己公司的先进技术与人共享,通过利人的方式能达到利己的目的的结论。
我认为这个推理值得商榷。
(开头不错,符合我们的写作公式,但是,要注意的是“我认为这个推理值得商榷,”表达不妥当,“我认为”认为’是个人的主观意识,而非客观现实,所以在论证有效性分析文章中不要出现“我认为”的字样)首先,从玉米收成的例子就得出市场竞争的顾虑,这是不当类比,因为毕竟玉米收成涉及的自然环境的原因比市场竞争中面临的环境要简单得多,并不能进行相类似的比较。
(论证点抓得比较准确,但是分析得有些简单,二者的不同点应该进一步深入分析)其次,其实农民为了保全自己的优势,并不一定需要将种子卖给别人。
如果他在发现种子可能杂交之前就有提前的意识去买新的优质的玉米种子,那么他仍然可以继续抱拳自己的优势。
(分析得比较好,特别是假设论证的使用很恰当,大家注意,如果使用假设论证,一不小心,自己可能犯逻辑错误) 市场竞争中,一个公司的先进技术是取得竞争优势的一个重要因素。
若将此现金技术公布出来,必然会被竞争对手迎头赶上,进而失去这一优势。
何况先进技术是公司的一个重要资源,当为了整个市场进步的利益而需要转让出来时,根据市场的规律应该考虑采取经济手段获取经济利益而非“慷慨无私”。
(写作的时候最好将原文的缺陷先指出来,然后分析,这样阅卷者也容易看出你的思路。
第二句明显是个无主语句,语法错误应该规避)而且,我认为,一个公司想在竞争中保持优势,当发现自己的现金技术被各种位列的仿造品杂交的不成样子时,应该立即采取措施,更新技术,以确保自己技术的先进性。
这样仍然能使公司在竞争中继续保持技术优势。
(“我认为”,这样的表达,大家想想,为什么不妥?)综上所述,我认为,一个公司要保持自己陷阱技术的优势,不能被动适应市场变化,而应有提前意识,积极改进技术,这样将能使公司立于不败之地。
权威又全面——2012 Duke MBA essay解析!Fuqua’s essay topics for the 2011-2012 admissions season remain identical to last year’s, retaining a strong interest in applicants’ interest in and potential contribution to the Duke MBA program and broader community. Moreover, the preamble/introduction that has prefaced the program’s essays for the past several years suggests that the program is seeking students who are both natural leaders and collaborators, able to work with diverse teams of people, and who hope to make a lasting impact through their post-MBA career pursuits. Further, Duke values students who can express themselves in a personable manner through their essays, so applicants should also strive to infuse their writing with personality and passion.Although there is no specified word limit, Duke does require that all essays be no more than two pages in length, written with 1.5 line spacing and a minimum 10 point font size. Let’s take a closer look at each essay:Essay 1: Describe your vision for your career and your inspiration for pursuing this career path.This is a variation of the standard career goals essay. Because Duke is asking about applicants’ career vision, however, this particular question lends itself to a long-term, big picture outlook in addition to the typical description of one’s immediate post-MBA career goals. Responding to the second part of this prompt provides candidates with the perfect opportunity to outline their career histories. Applicants should also consider including information about any academic or extracurricular experiences that have motivated them to pursue their intended careers. With two pages to respond to this prompt, applicants should have ample space to describe both their career visions as well as the factors and experiences that inspired their plans.这是经典职业目标类问题的变式,由于杜克大学要求申请者描述对职业生涯的愿景,所以除了写出MBA毕业后的职业规划外,此问题还需要写出长期职业生涯的宏观愿景。
问题的第二部分给了申请者道出自己职业经历的机会。
申请者还应注意,不放过学术上及课外生活中对自己追求职业生涯目标有影响的信息。
两页纸的空间,使申请者有足够的余地道出自己的职业规划以及影响职业生涯的因素和经历。
It’s important to note that this career vision question does not ask applicants how Fuqua would factor into achieving their professional goals. Therefore, all discussion of applicants’ academic and professional interest in Duke should be reserved for the response to the third prompt.值得注意的是:这个关于职业愿景的问题并未提到申请者关于Fuqua商学院对自己职业生涯影响的看法。
因此,所有关于申请者对杜克大学的学术及职业兴趣的讨论都应到有所保留。
Essay 2: How will your background, values, and non-work activities enhance the experience of other Duke MBA students and add value to Fuqua’s diverse culture?This question reflects Duke’s interest in identifying students who are in a position to contribute meaningfully to the diversity of the school’s community. The prompt is fairly broad, covering just about every possible dimension of one’s candidacy, experience and perspective; subsequently, it issues a general invitation for the applicant to imagine how his or her unique characteristics might map onto involvement in ‘Team Fuqua.’ This response is a great place to showcase specific knowledge of the student culture at Duke – even linking aspects of your background to contributions to discussions in specific courses or participation in conferences and campus events – as well as to introduce information that will help you stand out from the applicant pool.这个问题反映出学校对学生能够为学校的多样性做出有贡献的兴趣。
此问题的提示相当广泛,几乎涵盖了与申请有关的各个方面,如申请资格、个人经历等等。
其实它是在邀请申请者们想象自己的个性如何能以最好的方式融入到Fuqua 商学院的团队之中。
关于这个问题的回答是向学校展示自己对Duke有多深入了解的机会——甚至可以与你的背景相结合,对特定的课程、会议或者校园活动进行讨论——这将有可能使你在众多申请者中脱颖而出。
Essay 3: Why Duke? (If you are interested in a specific concentration, joint degree, clubs or activities, please discuss how you would contribute to these in this essay.)Asking applicants about their interest in the school to which they are applying is standard practice among MBA programs , and Duke’s parenthetical comments provide applicants with a clue as to the topics they should cover in responding to this essay. The important thing to note is that Fuqua asks how applicants would contribute to the school, so in addition to explaining what academic and extracurricular programs you want to become involved in, it’s important to show how this involvement would benefit the Duke community.要求申请者回答对学校的兴趣和申请的原因,这个问题是传统且标准的,况且问题的括号标注更是为申请者提供了回答的线索。
值得注意的是,问题要求申请者写出自己将会如何为学校做贡献,所以申请者应额外写出自己想参与哪些学术项目或课外活动,并对自己的参与会如何有利于学校做出解释。
One thing to be aware of is that your answer to this question is not merely a reiteration of the points made in your second essay, as both prompts ask applicants to explain how they would contribute to the school. One way in which you can approach this challenge is by using Essay 2 to focus on who you are and how you are unique: with this as your foundation, you can then use specific examples of planned participation to explain what you would bring to Fuqua and how you hope to contribute to the class. Meanwhile, in responding to Essay 3, you might focus on what you hope to get out of Fuqua and why you want to be there. In explaining how you are a cultural fit with the program and how the school would help you achieve your career goals, you should support your argument with specific examples of how you would contribute to, as well as benefit from, specific courses, clubs, and events.尽管问题2和问题3都要求申请者解释自己将如何为学校做贡献,但对这个问题的回答不能仅仅是对问题2的论点的重申。
