一、议论文的三要素

(一)论点：是作者对所论述问题的见解和主张，是议论文的灵魂。

1、议论文一般只有一个中心论点，有的议论文还围绕中心论点提出几个分论点，分论点是用来补充或证明中心论点的，只要研究这些论点的关系，就可以分出主从。

2.如何找中心论点。论点应该是明确的判断，是作者看法的完整陈述，在形式上应该是完整的句子。可采用关键词法查找论点，首先阅读给定的话题材料，从中寻找关键词汇，可以是出现频率最高的也可以是重点描绘的。在找到关键词会后，尝试发现所列出的关键词之间是否存在联系，进而进行引申。

(二)论据： 论据可以分多种类别，需要日常进行积累

1.事实论据：事实在议论文中论据作用十分明显，分析事实，看出道理，检验它与文章点在逻辑上是否一致。 2.道理论据：作为论据的道理总是读者比较熟悉的，或者是为社会普遍承认的，它们是对大量事实抽象，概括的结果。

(三)论证： 议论文中的论点和论据是通过论证组织起来的。论证是运用论 据来证明论点的过程和方法，是论点和论据之间的罗辑关系纽带。论点是解决“需要证明什么，”论据是解决“用什么来证明”，论证是解决“怎样证明”。 论证方法有以下几种： 1.举例论证：列举确凿、充分，有代表性的事例证明论点; 2.道理论证：用马列主义经典著作中的精辟见解，古今中外名人的名言警句以及人们公认的定理公式等来证明论点; 3.对比论证：拿正反西方面的论点或论据作对比，在对比中证明论点; 4.比喻论证：用人们熟知的事物作比喻来证明论点。此外，在驳论中，往往还采用“以尔之矛，攻尔之盾”的批驳 方法和“归谬法”。在多数议论文中往往是综合运用的。

二、议论文结构

1.基本结构是提出问题(引论)--分析问题(本论)--解决问题(结论)。

2.可分两大类 a.纵式：逐层深入的论述结构

例1.“层层深入”式，先提出论点后，先从消极方面论证，然后进一步从积极方面论述，如《怀疑与学问》。

例2.“起录转合”式：开头破题，引出论述问题;接着承接开头，阐述所论述的问题;“转”是双各个角度证明论点;最后归结，就是“合”。

b.横式：并列展开的论述结构 例如： 有“总论——分论——总论”式，先提出论点，而后从几个方面阐述，最后总结归纳; 有“总论——分论”式，先提出论点，然后从几个方面论证。 有“分论——总论”式，对所要论述的总是分几个方面剖析，然后综合归纳出结论。 总之，分析议论文的结构，先要弄明白中段落层次间的内在联系，还要注意文章中起着承上启下作用的过渡段，过渡句以及过渡词语。

Mother’s day

In the U.S., mother’s day is a holiday celebrated on the second sunday in May. It is a day when children honor their mothers with cards, gifts, and flowers. It was first observed in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania in 1907. Long before that, there were days honoring mothers even in ancient Greece. In those days, however, it was Rhea, the mother of the gods who was given honor.

Later, in the 1600s, in England there was an annual observance called "Mothering Sunday". It was celebrated during June, on the fourth sunday. On Mothering Sunday, the servants, who generally lived with their employers, were encouraged to return home and honor their mothers. It was traditional for them to bring a special cake along to celebrate the occasion.

In the U.S., in 1907, Ana Jarvis, from Philadelphia, began a campaign to establish a national mothers day. Jarvis persuaded her mothers church in Grafton, West Virginia to celebrate mothers day on the second anniversary of her mothers death, which was the second sunday in May. The next year mothers day was again celebrated in Philadelphia. Jarvis and others began a letter-writing campaign to ministers, businessmen, and politicians in their quest to establish a national mothers day. They were successful. In 1914, the American president proclaimed mothers day a national observance that was to be held each year on the second sunday of May.

“I have a dream that one day this nation will rise up and live out the true meaning of its creed:"We hold these truths to be self-evident:that all men are created equal."

Mr.Kings dream of all men created equal is mine too.When I hear his speech,I come to know thatI have the same dream that people should work together and live together like brothers.Nobody will take advantage of others,with less work but more income.But no,Mr Kings dream remains as a dream even after so many decades since he left us.Look,people who have more houses want to keep them all for themselves,although there are so many people who do not even have a room to stay in.On the other hand,many people ,who have nothing,do not want to work harder to earn something on their own.They just complain that all men are not created equal.

So,if we look close at human beings,we will realize that Mr.Kings dream will be a dream for a long,long time.Still,I admire him because at least he has a great dream,which is leading many people to treat others better.

恰当地运用修辞手法，是增强文章的审美含量、增加文采、提升品位的重要手段。如借助排比，便可以渲染气氛，增强气势，增进论证。运用比喻，便可以化抽象为具体，增添情趣，令人遐想万千，思接古今。在文中如能巧妙地使用比喻、排比、反复、拟人等修辞手法，文章就能“气象峥嵘，彩色绚烂”。

如要表达“龙泉洞上的千手佛像爬满了青苔”这个意思，若不用任何修辞手法，可这样说：“龙泉洞上的千手佛像上到处布满青苔。”语句显得平淡而乏味。如果运用拟人、排比等修辞手法，则可以这样表达：“他微笑着，看青苔爬上脚趾，他微笑着，听青苔跃上双膝，他微笑着，任青苔浸上佛头。”在这里，作者用“微笑”“看”“爬”“跃”“浸”等动词，赋予佛和绿苔以生命，生动、传神地写出了它们的生气与活力。写得情趣盎然、文采飞扬，因而极具艺术魅力。

Gulangyu, separated from Xiamen by the 500-metre-wide Egret River, with an area of 1.77 square kilometres, enjoys a lauditory title Garden on the Sea. The original name of the islet was Yuan Zhou Zi. In the Ming Dynasty it was renamed Gulang, meaning drum waves, because the holes in the southwestern reefs hit by the waves make sounds like the drum beating.

Overlapping peaks foil the blue water, white clouds, green trees and bright flowers. The air in the islet is fresh. The entire place is free from any sorts of vehicles and is particularly quiet. All these render an atmosphere of a fairyland.

The roar of the waves breaks on the rocks. Impressive melodies surrounding and lingering on this island make famous for its piano-laden past. As a place of residence for Westerners during Xiamens colonial past, Gulangyu is famous for its architecture and for being home to Chinas largest piano museum. It is known as the piano island because people here love the piano. As early as 1913, students in schools run by foreigners started learning the piano. The enthusiasm for music later spread to more ordinary people on the island. Many piano families have since then come into being and produced accomplished musicians. And the number of the pianos possessed is in the leading place in the nation, though there is only a population of 20,000 people.

No tourist can afford to miss one attraction located on the island —— the nations largest piano museum. Divided into two exhibition halls, the museum guides visitors through a vivid history of the instrument with displays and illustrations. All different types of pianos such as miniature pianos, automatic pianos, accordion pianos and round-shaped pianos, are on display.

The architecture in the islet varies greatly in style, Chinese and foreign. Thus the islet has a laudatory title the World Architecture Museum Covered in green all the year round, its charming, elegant, secluded and serene. A great variety of villas stand shrouded by lush wood resembling numerous jadeites embellished upon a piece of verdant silk brocade. Hundreds of flowers grown on the Riguang Rock (Sunlight Rock) vie with one another for beauty. With the caressing sea breeze, its a quite cool place in hot summer. At the foot of the rock, theres the Memorial Hall to honor the national Hero Zheng Chenggong.

Today, Gulangyu is listed as one of the nations major scenic spots. The main sites of interest here include the Sunlit Rock, Shuzhuang Park, Gangzihou Bathing Beach and Memorial Hall to Zheng Chenggong, which are visited annually by millions of people from all parts of the country and the world.
