参考答案与写作评价
一至四 范文分析与修改
一:clean;quiet;cats are quieter than dogs / unlikely to make a loud noise that leads to complaints;they can stay indoors and play with small toys / owners do not need to walk them。结构A。注意范文中的说法是作者论证内容,不宜扩大为所有猫在所有情境下都安静、好照料。
二:B。它提供了与“quiet home”相关的具体支持;A只是重复赞美,没有补充证据。anyone缺乏充分论证。可改为:A cat may be a good pet for a family that enjoys quiet company and has time to care for it. 同时考虑不喜欢猫或不能承担照料的家庭。
三:开放答案。检查三点是否不同;“cute / lovely / beautiful”通常是一个“外表”理由的重复。四示例:Cats clean themselves with their tongues and paws. This suits our family because we prefer a pet that keeps itself clean. However, we still need to keep its living area clean. 不可写“因此主人完全不用清理”。
五 参考范文
Cats — a suitable pet for our family
In my opinion, a cat would be a suitable pet for our family. We enjoy quiet evenings at home.
Firstly, cats are clean. They use their tongues and paws to clean themselves. Secondly, they do not bark, so they would suit our quiet home. Finally, a cat can play indoors with small toys. This fits our family because someone is at home every afternoon to spend time with it.
However, we must still feed it, clean its litter box and take it to the vet when necessary. For these reasons, I think a cat could suit us, as long as we are ready to care for it every day.
正文109词。范文供完成初稿后对照;选择其他宠物、有合理条件和证据,同样可以写出好文章。
