本題主要要求考生寫一篇120詞至180詞的文章，主要論述畢業後工作的挑戰/出國讀書的挑戰/在大城市生活的挑戰，是典型的議論文。今年的四級作文難度正常，題目詞彙為初中詞彙,通過審題可知，題目包含兩個方面的內容：第一，論證工作/出國讀書/大城市生活會面對的挑戰;第二，給出適當的的建議，寫出解決挑戰的方法。
今年的題目直接沿襲了6月份的考法，我們可以看出命題人所出題目開始關注社會熱點現象，想要考查學生分析問題解決問題的能力。所以我們要把重點放在解決挑戰的建議上，即我們要提出幾條可行性的方法(methods)或者建議(suggestions)，我們可以按照這樣的寫作思路來進行謀篇布局。
第一段：論述現象
第二段：會面對什麼樣的挑戰 +舉例子
第三段：面對這樣的挑戰，有什麼樣的解決方法，大概寫2-3點，然後總結全文。
範文解析：以大城市的挑戰為例子
第一段：引出主題—— 「論述現象，引出話題」。
Currently, there is a phenomenon that a number of graduates choose to live in a big city after graduation.For example, 70% my classmates prefer to find job in big cities like Beijing,Shanghaiand Shenzhen. While, settling down in a big city is not easy.
譯文：當今，存在一個現象，大多數畢業生選擇畢業後留在大城市生活，例如，70%我的同學們，傾向於找工作在北京、上海、深圳等城市，然而，正如我們所知在大城市生活並不是容易的事情。
模板句：Currently, there is a phenomenon that a number of XXX 可以用來描述現象
While, settling down in a big city is not easy. ：轉折可以用來引出觀點
第二段:論述面對的挑戰有什麼+ 帶來的結果
Living in a big city,we may meet a lot of challenges as follows: in the first place,people, especially the young,have to face the surprisingly high price of housing. Generally, we may spend half of our entire salary on housing. In the second place, people may feel lonely, because we are so busy that we hardly have time to meet our friends. Even some of us have no time to spend with their parents. In the end, comparing with living in a small city, living in a big one makes us often feel too much pressure, and too much pressure may lead to some mental illness.
譯文：生活在大城市，我們會面對以下的挑戰，首先，尤其是年輕人，需要面對高昂的房價，這樣的挑戰使得我們不得將每個月的薪水用來支付高房價。第二，我們會經常感到孤獨，因為我們太忙了以至於我們幾乎沒有時間與我們的朋友見面，甚至，我們機會沒時間陪伴我們的父母。最後，與小城市相比，生活在大城市經常讓我們感到壓力，這樣的壓力會給我們帶來心理方面的疾病。

第三段：根據上段的內容提建議。
In conclusion, people who are ready to live in a big city should make numerous preparations. On the one hand, they had better get used to feeling lonely and pressure, because life in any big city is not a very easy thing, and you should learn to solve countless problems. On the other hand, you should keep studying in order to improve your ability.

寫作範文
In contemporary society, a growing number of residents tend to live in a big city in which they could get more work opportunities, excellent education, and other high-quality resources. However, living in a big city, from my perspective, also may bring us a number of challenges.
Firstly, it is obvious that the high price of housing gives youngsters a great deal of pressure, making them struggle for a better living condition. Then, the terrible traffic may even become a primary factor that costsyou much time on your way to work. More importantly, compared with living in rural areas, living in a big city sometimes means you have to tolerate the unpleasant air condition.
Given all these, living in a big city may not be an easy thing. But if we are willing to make efforts to change some little things, I believe that we would have a bright future. By the way, nothing can stop us from striving for our goals.
綜上所述，今年的四級作文符合常規，典型的議論文，議論文就按照三步走套路：第一步：描述現象，第二步：論述事實+帶來的結果，第三步：總結+提建議的套路，建議考生平時複習同類型文章時可以採用上述步驟。
