答案

My friend Mike must have benefited greatly from humor. He is kind but overweight, which brings him a lot of troubles. Once one of my classmates laughed at him, “Why are you so fat?” We all stopped to stare at him, wondering how Mike would answer the question. He just said in a calm voice, “Well, because my size must be large enough to hold my large heart of love.” Hearing his words, we burst into laughter. Not only did Mike take the joke, but he also managed to cope with the embarrassing situation.
What an important part humor plays in our daily life! Why not possess a sense of humor and go along the road of life with happiness all the way?

解析

试题分析：考查半开放性作文。本文讨论的话题是“幽默”；可以从幽默的作用：能让人开心，提高人的情绪情感，和别人更加和谐相处等方面着手；也可以从自己生活中的一些小事中举一到两个小的例子来进行说明。要求考生在保证内容要点全部概括的基础上可以充分发挥自己的想象，进而用自己的语言来表达某种观点或看法，增添了写作的灵活性，同时能较好地考查考生的想象能力和英语语言表达能力。
点评：半开放性作文给出了一个话题，并有部分的文字提示。给考生自由发挥的余地较大。对于考生的综合能力要求较高，要求考生有很强的谋篇布局的能力和组织要点的能力。在完成开放性作文时，首先要选择自己熟悉的短语或者句型，在你的能力范围之内，选择句式时要赋予变化，因为这样你才可以更好的驾驭。同时也要选择合适的连接词，把各个要点组织成一个完整的整体，如besides, further, last but not least等。在发表个人观点的时候，可以使用谚语来提升整个文章的档次和文采，也能增加得高分的可能性。
