一、開頭句型
我們常說，良好的開端等于成功的一半。做事如此，作文也是如此。所以我們頗有必要在作文的開頭花一番心思。
在寫議論文時，你通常以什么樣的方式開頭呢?最簡單也最常用的可能就是開門見山法。也就是說———直截了當(dāng)?shù)靥岢瞿銓@個問題的觀點，點出文章的中心思想。
I....has both advantages and disadvantages.……既有利又有弊。例如：
1.Obviously television has both advantages and disadvantages.
2.Living in a city has both advantages and disadvantages.
3.Com pared with cars，bikes have their advantages and disadvantages.
例如：
1.With the rapid increase of China's population，housing problem is becoming more and more serious.
隨著中國人口的急劇增加，住房問題越來越突出。
2.With more and more women entering society，people's attitude towards women is changing.
隨著越來越多的婦女走入社會，人們對婦女的態(tài)度也在改變。
3.With the deepening of Chinese reform and opening up，an increasing number of Chinese families can afford a car.
隨著中國改革開放的深入，越來越多的中國家庭買得起車了。(“越來越多”除了常用的more and more外，還可以用an increasing number of， a growing number of，a significant number of，a great number of等來表達(dá)。)
二、結(jié)尾句型
英語議論文多以簡要總結(jié)全文或?qū)λ懻摰膯栴}提出解決辦法來結(jié)尾。總結(jié)全文時除常用到in one /a word，generally speaking等外，沒有固定模式。提出解決辦法時卻常使用下一句型。
V....take measures to do sth.例如：
1.We should take measures to control pollution in order to save the world.
2.We'd better take effective measures to prevent students from cheating on exams.
3.The government decided to take strong measures against drug abuse.
4.Urgent measures should be taken to prevent terrorists from carrying out further attacks.
