“在家考”会不会说来就来?欣喜若狂?猝不及防?阮恩老师(章老师的江湖名号)及时地回来了。

　　“　High school students now cheat more than before in homework assignments, by asking other students for answers. Which of the following do you think is the most effective wau to stop this phenomenon?

　　1. asking parents to monitor (signing homework to prove no cheating involved) ;

　　2. increasing penalty or punishment to the students who cheat ;

　　3. asking teachers to create homework assignments in which students can hardly cheat.”

　「题目来自于《新托福写作真经6》的37页」

　　As soon as the three proposed options are presented, the first one is immediately abandoned. The immediate opposition to the first proposal is that parents may hardly have time or patience to actually monitor the whole process of their children’s doing homework assignments. As for the third one, it provokes my strong objection, largely because I am a teacher. Not only does it add much work, meaningless work to my job, it also puts me in a rather awkward position and makes me the easy target for students’ aversion. Before I elaborate on those two abandoned proposals, I should point out the logic of the second option, and the logic, crude yet simple, also well accounts for my approval to this option: students are certainly at liberty to choose their ways of doing homework assignments, the honest or the dishonest, and it is therefore only students themselves and no one else who should deal with “the business” entailed or prevent the business from happening in the first place.

　　如果以上这一段是我的独立写作的开头段落。你觉得怎么样?为什么?

　　你仍然(如同上一期)可以考虑：

　　1) 有没有起到开头段落的作用?比如：陈述话题、表明立场。

　　2) 和我们惯用的开头方式有什么区别?这些区别是好事还是坏事?

　　3) 这样的开头段落，好么?好在哪里?可能不好在哪里?如果有不好，有可能在本文接下来的写中客服克服掉么?
