Answer 1

I Like Reading Reading is my favorite hobby. I can never stop the love for reading because books are like wise teachers as well as good friends in my life. Just as a saying goes “Books are the stepping stones to human progress.” I think books are the source of knowledge. As a consequence, I benefit a great deal from reading.    There are a variety of books for us to choose from, like history books, science books, literary books and so on. But what interests me most is literary books, especially those written by famous writers. For one thing, they help to improve my writing skills and broaden my horizons. For another, they can enrich my life and provide me with great fun.  As far as I’m concerned, there is nothing else I can find in the world much more attractive to me. Don’t you think so?

试题分析：本文讲述的话题是“I Like Reading”，从考生个人的角度出发讲述喜欢读书的原因，读书可以让人学习知识，让自己的能力得到提高。在讲述自己喜欢哪一类的书的时候，也可以从自己的实际出发，写明自己所喜欢的书的类型。要求考生在保证内容要点全部概括的基础上可以充分发挥自己的想象，进而用自己的语言来表达某种观点或看法，增添了写作的灵活性，同时能较好地考查考生的想象能力和英语语言表达能力。 点评：半开放性作文给出了一个话题，并有部分的文字提示。给考生自由发挥的余地较大。对于考生的综合能力要求较高，要求考生有很强的谋篇布局的能力和组织要点的能力。在完成开放性作文时，首先要选择自己熟悉的短语或者句型，在你的能力范围之内，选择句式时要赋予变化，因为这样你才可以更好的驾驭。同时也要选择合适的连接词，把各个要点组织成一个完整的整体，如besides, further, last but not least等。在发表个人观点的时候，可以使用谚语来提升整个文章的档次和文采，也能增加得高分的可能性。
