【示例·分步写作】
例题:Write a biographical essay about a person who has made a significant difference to society.(写一篇关于对社会产生重大影响的人物的传记文章。)
【答案】
写作思路:
1. 开头:引出人物,介绍基本信息 。“Steve Jobs, one of the most influential figures in the modern technology world, was born on February 24, 1955, in San Francisco, California. From a young age, he showed a keen interest in electronics and innovation” 。
2. 中间 - 生平事迹部分:按时间顺序叙述重要阶段和成就 。“In 1976, Jobs, along with Steve Wozniak and Ronald Wayne, founded Apple Computer Company. Their first product, the Apple I, was a revolutionary personal computer that laid the foundation for the future of the industry. In 1984, Apple launched the Macintosh, which introduced the graphical user interface to the mass market, changing the way people interacted with computers. However, Jobs left Apple in 1985 due to internal conflicts. During his absence, he founded NeXT, a computer platform development company, and acquired Pixar. Under his leadership, Pixar became a world - leading animation studio, producing a series of successful animated films like 'Toy Story'. In 1997, Apple acquired NeXT, and Jobs returned to Apple. He then led a series of product launches that transformed Apple into one of the most valuable companies in the world. The iMac, iPod, iPhone, and iPad were not only technological marvels but also cultural phenomena, influencing the way people communicate, work, and entertain” 。
3. 结尾:总结人物影响 。“Steve Jobs' innovative spirit, attention to detail, and unwavering pursuit of perfection had a profound impact on the technology industry and society as a whole. His products not only changed the way we live but also inspired a new generation of entrepreneurs and innovators. His legacy will continue to shape the future for years to come” 。
详解:开头简洁介绍乔布斯,引发读者兴趣。中间详细叙述他在苹果公司的创业、离开与回归,以及在皮克斯的成就,按时间顺序展开,条理清晰,每个阶段都有具体事例和产品支撑,突出其对科技和社会的影响。结尾高度评价他的贡献和影响,强化主题,使文章结构完整,内容丰富,符合人物传记写作要求。
