CET4/6试题中，有两个拉分最厉害的部分，一是听力题，一是作文题。，跟汉语作文的“起承转合”类似，英语作文其实也有固定模式，
我到那里一看，果然有五个模板，认真拜读一遍之后，不由得大吃二惊。第一惊的是：我们中国真是高手如林，多么复杂、困难的问题，都能够迎刃而解，实在佩服之极。第二惊的是：“八股文”这朵中国传统文化的奇葩，在凋谢了一百多年之后，竟然又在中华大地上重新含苞怒放，真是可喜可贺。
感慨之后，转入正题。这五个模板，在结构上大同小异，掌握一种即可，所以我从中挑选了一个最简单、最实用的，稍加修改，给各位介绍一下。这个模板的中文大意是：在某种场合，发生某种现象，并提供一些相关数据，然后列出这种现象的三个原因，并将三个原因总结为一个最主要原因，最后提出避免这种现象的两个办法。总的来说，利用这个模板写英语作文，是相当容易的，您只要将适当的内容，填写到对应的方括号中，一篇通顺的英语作文即可完成。下面就是这个模板。
Nowadays, there are more and more [某种现象] in [某种场合]. It is estimated that [相关数据]. Why have there been so many [某种现象]? Maybe the reasons can be listed as follows. The first one is [原因一]. Besides, [原因二]. The third one is [原因三]. To sum up, the main cause of [某种现象] is due to [最主要原因]. It is high time that something were done upon it. For one thing, [解决办法一]. On the other hand, [解决办法二]. All these measures will certainly reduce the number of [某种现象].
为便于读者理解，我特意用这个模板，写了一篇关于ghost writer(捉刀代笔的枪手)的示范性小作文，请您观摩一下。
Nowadays, there are more and more [ghost writers / 枪手] in [China's examinations / 中国的考场]. It is estimated that [5% examinees are ghost writers / 5%的应试者是枪手]. Why have there been so many [ghost writers / 枪手]? Maybe the reasons can be listed as follows. The first one is [hirers' ignorance / 雇主无知]. Besides, [hirers' indolence / 雇主懒惰]. The third one is [hirers' obtusity / 雇主迟钝]. To sum up, the main cause of [ghost writers / 枪手] is due to [hirers' low IQ / 雇主智商低]. It is high time that something were done upon it. For one thing, [flagellation / 鞭打]. On the other hand, [decapitation / 斩首]. All these measures will certainly reduce the number of [ghost writers / 枪手].
