Some people believe that there should be fixed punishments for each type of crime. Others,however, argue that the circumstances of an individual crime, and the motivation forcommitting it, should be taken into account when deciding the punishment。

Discuss both views and give your own opinion。

1. 考生需要对题目中的两个相反的观点进行分析，不能只分析自己倾向的观点。即：固定不变的定罪制度有何作用;依据犯罪动机和环境灵活的定罪制度有何作用。

2. 考生需要非常清楚的表明自己的观点，即回答应当如何对罪犯的犯罪行为定罪。

3. 考生对于题目中两个相反观点的分析需要摆出充足的论据，提出自己的理由并通过例子来证明。

7.5分考生范文选段：对固定不变的定罪制度的分析

On the one hand, fixed punishment will have a deterring effect on society. ‖Individualsknowing that they will be subject to a certain punishment if they are convicted with a givencrime will reconsider committing this act in the first place. ‖This deterring effect also leads tosocial stability and security, through minimizing the number of crimes committed. ‖Ifpeople knew they would be able to convince the court or the jury of reason for havingcommitted the crime they are accused of, penal decisions would be largely arbitrary. Thiswould result into criminals getting away with their crimes and into a high level of injusticecaused by the subjective approach of different courts。

1. 观点：固定的惩罚制度对社会有威慑力。(fixed punishment will have a deterring effect onsociety。)

2. 理由：考虑犯罪成本(reconsider committing crimes in the first place)

3. 扩展结果：有利于社会稳定(lead to social stability and security through minimizing thenumber of crimes committed。)

4. 理由：如果没有固定的定罪制度，会使犯罪分子更猖狂。(If people knew they would be able toconvince the court or the jury of reason for having committed the crime they are accused of, penal decisions would be largely arbitrary。)

5. 扩展结果：犯罪分子逍遥法外，不利于司法公正。(criminals getting away with their crimes anda high level of injustice caused by the subjective approach of different courts。)

3. 对策

① 复习真题，找生词

在考题中，经常出现核心词汇的重复，比如：distance learning, criminal等。建议考生们可以在复习写作时，先把近两年的写作题目过一遍，查查生词。这样做可以大大降低考生在作文题中遭遇生词的尴尬，提高审题的准确性。

②掌握不同题型大作文的写作重点

观点类：可以支持、反对、中立，一定要表达自己的观点。论据要充分，举例不可或缺。

分析解决类：所问即所答，重点分析原因，解决方法多角度。

③八大话题，重点突破

在考题中，“教育，科技，环保，全球化，政府，媒体，工作，社会生活”为常考的八大话题。复习重点有以下几方面：1. 每个话题的核心词汇要烂熟于心。2. 每个话题要积累至少两个可以作举例论证的实例。3. 每个话题至少选择两道题目做brainstorming思路拓展练习。4. 每个话题要至少积累两篇范文。5. 每个考生对自己不熟悉的话题，要加强以上练习。

二. Coherence and cohesion

　　1. 具体要求

Coherence and cohesion表示连贯统一。在官方给出的评分标准中，7分有这样的要求：

1. Logically organizes information and ideas; there is a clear progression throughout

2. Uses a range of cohesive devices appropriately although there may be someunder/over-use

3. Presents a clear central topic within each paragraph

7.5分考生范文选段：考生回答应当如何对罪犯的犯罪行为定罪。

In my opinion an intermediary position between both solutions is the perfect way toestablish and ensure justice and equity. There have to be fixed punishment for all ver, criminal laws have to provide for a minimum and maximum for the punishment andthe laws also have to foresee certain cases of exemptions. An example for setting minimumand maximum penalties is Competition Law where a person being held liable of a crime underthis law will be convicted to pay a fine, according to the harm caused by the violation and theprofit gained by the violator through committing the crime. As for the exemptions, in somecountries the law exempts thieves stealing food during a period of famine taking intoconsideration the distress and hunger. Also, a person killing in self-defense will beexempted from punishment。
