①審題及布局。從文章的要求上看，應(yīng)該首先對題目討論的現(xiàn)象作總述，

即現(xiàn)在食品安全事故屢有發(fā)生；隨后分析其帶來的影響，即公眾會產(chǎn)生

恐慌；最后推導(dǎo)出主題：應(yīng)當(dāng)認(rèn)真解決食品安全問題。在布局上，根據(jù)

題目中給出的提綱展開即可。第一段介紹食品安全事故屢有發(fā)生；第二

段闡述食品安全問題帶來的負(fù)面影響，人們對食品的安全越來越擔(dān)心；

第三段陳述自己對這一現(xiàn)象的看法，提出解決問題的方法。②語言。本

文是一篇論說文，通過分析食品安全的影響，提出解決這個(gè)問題的方法，

所以論述要重點(diǎn)突出，層次分明，具有說服力，詞匯選擇要精確，句式

豐富一些。時(shí)態(tài)上選擇一般現(xiàn)在時(shí)即可。

綱式作文。按照文章提示的要求，首先應(yīng)該對越來越多的年輕人把手機(jī)

短信作為交流的主要渠道這一現(xiàn)象進(jìn)行簡單介紹，然后說明使用手機(jī)短

信的利與弊，最后表明自己的觀點(diǎn)，即喜歡這種交流方式與否。在布局

上，根據(jù)題目中給出的提綱來展開，采用三段式的結(jié)構(gòu)即可。第一段介

紹這種現(xiàn)象；第二段說明使用短信交流的利弊，應(yīng)該注意根據(jù)自己的觀

點(diǎn)事先安排說明利弊的比重，即如果認(rèn)為利大于弊，就應(yīng)該多說明益處,

反之亦然；第三段陳述自己的觀點(diǎn)。②語言。本文是一篇論說文，論說

要層次分明，語言簡潔流暢，盡量避免重復(fù)使用同一句式或詞匯，以增

加文采。時(shí)態(tài)上采用一般現(xiàn)在時(shí)即可。
