Make the Most of Our School Days

Almost one-fourth of our lifetime is spent in school. There we are preparing for our future and our duty for society. Meanwhile①, we make our life-long friends who will be a great help in our future. Therefore, it is a most important period of our life.

We go to school, not only to be educated, but to adjust ourselves for our school is a society in miniature②. Our classmates are of different natures③, so we begin to learn human nature early. Thus it enables us to handle relationships between different kinds of people later. A school provides many extracurricular activities④, which is a stepping-stone⑤ to social life. A school also trains a student to have a clear and sound mind.

Some of us tend to go to extremes⑥: either we are too fond of studies and become a bookworm or we are fully occupied by off-campus activities that completely make us forsake⑦ our studies. As for the former, they&39;s make less mistakes but more delightful⑧ experiences while in school.

【簡評】

這是一篇根據命題完成的議論文。

第一段，作者用因果法得出結論：在學校的日子是我們人生中一個重要時期。第二段，用列舉法說明我們上學不僅為了受教育，而且要調整自己來適應學校這個小型社會。學校提供各種課外活動，幫助我們逐步走向社會。學校還幫助我們培養清晰健康的頭腦。第三段，作者首先用對比法說明了兩種學校裡的極端傾向：完全做書呆子和只參加課外活動不學習，並分析各自的利弊。然後作者提出自己的看法：We should stand in the middle of these two extremes. 也就是既要努力學習，又要積極參加課外活動。最後一段，作者發出呼籲：Let’s make less mistakes but more delightful experience while in school.

本文緊扣命題，重點突出，主題明確，長句的合理運用使問題論述得更為清楚、透徹。
