②意義的轉(zhuǎn)折引出爭(zhēng)議；固定句型運(yùn)用恰當(dāng)。

③引出專家的觀點(diǎn)和理由：方言是中國(guó)文化不可缺少的一部分，也是人類文明寶貴的遺產(chǎn)，這些節(jié)目有利于方言的保存。preserving，indispensible，preciouslegacy都是加分詞。

④意義的轉(zhuǎn)折，引出官方的意見：方言節(jié)目與推廣普通話的政策相悖．而且會(huì)給學(xué)生使用普通活帶來不良影響。

⑤陳述自己喜歡方言類節(jié)目的原因：一是以娛樂的方式提供新聞，觀眾喜歡，釋放了壓力，一舉兩得；二是方言類節(jié)目貼近生活，有親切感。relievedfrom，appealed，nottomention和life-centered體現(xiàn)豐富的詞匯量。

⑥總結(jié)全文：這些節(jié)目既不構(gòu)成對(duì)普通話的威脅，也沒有理由禁止播出。poseathreatagainst為加分短語。
