2. 文章立意:創(chuàng)造力是21世紀(jì)最重要的能力之一。想要培養(yǎng)創(chuàng)造力,學(xué)生自己要養(yǎng)成獨立思考的習(xí)慣,開拓創(chuàng)新,老師也應(yīng)想盡辦法為學(xué)生提供一切可能,使其尋求獨到的見解。
寫作思路
1. 第一段簡要描述創(chuàng)造力,然后提出問題:應(yīng)如何培養(yǎng)創(chuàng)造力。
2. 第二段講述創(chuàng)造力的培養(yǎng)主要通過兩個渠道,一是學(xué)生自己堅持獨立思考和廣泛閱讀;二是老師多提供機(jī)會鼓勵學(xué)生尋求獨到的見解。
3. 第三段呼應(yīng)論點,再次強(qiáng)調(diào)創(chuàng)造力的重要性。
參考范文
Creativity is about learning to do something with a different perspective. 1 Apparently, creativity is a powerful resource we should make full use of. 2 But how to develop creativity? Two key points are concluded as follows: 3
First of all 4 , as for students, we must keep thinking independently and enjoying asking questions. And also 4 , we should be fully aware of the importance of extensive reading. The more books we read, the broader our horizon is, and the more new ideas we can work out. In addition 4 , teachers play a significant role in cultivating students’ creativity. For example, it is teachers’ responsibility to encourage students to answer more open-ended questions and come up with unique solutions. Teachers are supposed to provide more possibilities for the students, rather than telling them there is only one answer to each question.
All in all, we must recognize the importance of creativity as a crucial ability in the 21st century and spare no efforts to enhance creativity among children, youths and adults. Only in this way can we expect a promising future. 5
創(chuàng)造力關(guān)乎學(xué)會從不同的角度做事情。顯然,創(chuàng)造力是我們應(yīng)充分利用的強(qiáng)大資源。然而,創(chuàng)造力應(yīng)如何培養(yǎng)呢?以下兩點是關(guān)鍵。
首先,作為學(xué)生來講,我們必須堅持獨立思考,樂于提問題。同時,我們也應(yīng)該充分意識到廣泛閱讀的重要性。我們書讀得越多,見識就越廣,產(chǎn)生的新想法就越多。另外,老師對于培養(yǎng)學(xué)生的創(chuàng)造力起著重要的作用。比如,老師有責(zé)任鼓勵學(xué)生回答開放式的問題并得出獨到的解決辦法。老師應(yīng)當(dāng)給學(xué)生提供更多的可能性而不是告訴他們?nèi)魏螁栴}只有一個答案。
總之,創(chuàng)造力是21世紀(jì)的一項重要能力,我們必須認(rèn)識到它的重要性,并不遺余力地增強(qiáng)兒童、青年人及成年人的創(chuàng)造力。只有這樣我們才能迎來光明的前途。

句法點評
1. For example, it is teachers’ responsibility to encourage students to answer more open-ended questions and come up with unique solutions.
這句話使用了it作形式主語,真正的主語是不定式to encourage students to answer more open-ended questions and come up with unique solutions,由于主語太長,為避免頭重腳輕,用it作形式主語。
2. Teachers are supposed to provide more possibilities for the students, rather than telling them there is only one answer to each question.
be supposed to do sth.,表示“應(yīng)該做某事”,用來表示勸告、建議、義務(wù)、責(zé)任等,相當(dāng)于情態(tài)動詞should。此外還包含rather than這個詞組,意為“而不是,而非”。
