2016年雅思写作辅导：漂亮的开头

　　一个漂亮的开头，往往是写作成功的一半。尤其在雅思写作考试中，好的开头往往能够在瞬间吸引考官的眼球，留下良好的第一印象。那么，我们怎样才能写漂亮的引言段呢?首先，我们要做到开门见山，明确写作话题和目的。如何才能做到开门见山?

　　1. 采用媒体报道引出话题，把问题呈现在读者面前，引起读者思考

　　例如在写关于该不该禁烟的话题时，可以这样开头：A recent study conducted by Zhongshan University has found that the number of smokers has been increasing sharply over the past five years. Research findings also reveal that the incidence of smoking-related conditions has soared. As a result, the ban on smoking has been in the spotlight. (中山大学最近做的一个研究表明，在过去五年里，吸烟人数急剧上升。研究结果同时显示，吸烟导致的疾病发病率也急剧增长。因此，禁烟成为一个热点话题。这个开头通过媒体报道把问题呈现在读者面前，从而引出吸烟比例急剧上升造成的危害，引发读者思考。

　　2. 提出有争议性的问题，激发读者兴趣，使其积极参与讨论

　　例如在写到警察是否应该持枪这篇文章时作者说 If police in the U.K. are able to go without guns and not have crime getting completely out of control then they have already set a fine example that other countries should follow. The fact that they are able to do this is an indication of their ability to control the flow of guns to the general populace and this makes citizens safer than anything else. To a civilian, taking guns away from criminals is more important than giving them to police. 提出这个有争议的话题，激发读者的兴趣，使读者积极参与到讨论中来，让大家各抒己见进行讨论。

　　3. 引起读者兴趣的话题

　　例如在写关于体罚的话题文章时，采用这样一个开头：It is reported that a boy in Zhuhai was beaten to death by his father on Father' Day. Ample evidence also shows that children who are frequently abused by their parents or teachers tend to be introverted, pessimistic, indifferent and even world-weary. Recently, there has arisen a fierce argument on whether corporal punishment should be abolished. Teachers, parents and experts take diverse attitudes towards this issue.(据报道，在父亲节那天，珠海有个小男孩被爸爸打死了。充分的证据也显示，经常遭父母或老师虐待的小孩往往比较内向、悲观、冷漠甚至厌世。近来，关于是否应该废除体罚出现了一场激烈的争论，老师、家长和专家各执一词。)当读者看到这个话题时产生了浓厚的兴趣进而引起了对这件事情的思考。

　　4. 呈现该话题正反方的观点

　　例如在写到男性和女性谁可以做更好的父母时可以这样开头：At the mere mention of women governing the world, most of us may naturally form an unrealistic picture of a more peaceful world where the sun always shines. The other side of the picture, however, is just to the opposite.
