如何讓我們在雅思寫作作文中有話說？

在我們的寫作中，經(jīng)常碰到拿到一個題目感覺沒有多少可以去寫，或者說展開的時候比較難。我們今天來通過分析一篇文章來看一下怎么讓作文可寫的內容變多。我們就用顧家北雅思寫作書上的這篇文章來分析。

題目： A longer prison term as a way of punishing those who break the law is not as good as other methods. To what extent do you agree or disagree? guP98

Imposing sentences is widely accepted as a method to punish those who commit serious offence and sometimes as a correctional method. This approach may be effective, but we should also consider other ways to reform offenders.

The prison sentence may have a deterrent effect on either prospective offenders or habitual offenders. Imprisonment means that those who violate laws will lose freedom, a consequence that no rational person is willing to take. The criminal record can have a lasting impact on their lives including their career. They will not commit crimes when they run out of money; instead, they will choose to find work or run a small business to earn a living. This can help create a peaceful and safe community.

While I agree with a long prison term may sometimes help us fight crime, we can consider community service as an alternative. These services can make some offenders, especially those who committed minor crimes, law-abiding citizens, who can learn responsibility and realize the damage caused by crimes to innocent people. If they are sentenced to prison, they will possibly make friends with other offenders. They will not repent or take stock of their lives, so they may reoffend after being released, which can pose a threat to other members of society.

We can also provide educational opportunities and vocational training for them, improving their interpersonal skills and job skills. It is worth nothing that many juvenile offenders or first-time offenders broke the law because of a lack of social experience or low social-economic status. Crime is no longer an option, if they can find work and understand legal responsibilities. The prison can isolate criminals from society, shattering their confidence in finding work and reintegrating into society.

Overall, I agree that the harsh penalty can deter crime, but it is not the best approach. Through other rehabilitation programmes, we can build a happy and stable society.

文章題目是對longer prison term 和other methods 進行比較。文中開頭指出這個方法好，但其它方法也要考慮。

第2段先指出了這種方法的好處。第3段中指出了這種做法的一些缺陷，而在第4段中指出了其它可以考慮的一些方法，比如進行教育和職業(yè)培訓。最后一段進行了總結，指出了這種方法并不是唯一的，最好的，其它方法也要考慮，這樣才能建立更好的社會。
