18、有多种思路： 思路 1：贫富差距日益加剧的原因。 当前收入分配差距拉大，是由多种原因造成的。主要因素是：由体制弊端和法治漏洞造成的公有资产流失和不公平竞争；历史上形成并继续扩大的城乡差距和工农差距；由市场扭曲造成的企业和个人在经济上的分化；由于财政转移支付功能缺乏和社会保障制度缺陷而未能抑制差别迅速扩大等。 思路 2：贫富差距的影响。 贫富差距过大影 响社会稳定，先哲孔子早就说过： “民不患寡而患不均 ”；此外，贫富差距还直接导致各种机会的不平等，很重要的一点就是接受教育培训的机会；教育机会的不平等又会导致就业发展的差异，最后又拉大了贫富差距，导致穷者越穷，富者越富。 思路 3：如何解决贫富差
19、距问题。 平等是实现社会收入公平的根本途径，包括机会平等和结果平等两个方面。机会平等就是让所有的社会成员在就业、投资、职务升迁、赚钱赢利等方面获得均等的机会。结果平等指个人的努力与所得的对称，一个人只要有能力，勤奋努力，抓住机会，就可以从低收人者进人高收人 者行列。税收是国家调控经济的重要杠杆之一。强化税收的调节作用，对于缩小贫富差距，促进和谐社会的建设有重要意义。 范文采用了思路 2和 3，着重讨论了贫富差距拉大这种社会现象的影响，并提出了解决方案。 【知识模块】 作文 3 【正确答案】 Coping with Stress As the pace of life continues to

30、来越多的青睐，特别是年轻女性。这个话题可以从两个方面入手： 思路 1：支持整容。 爱美之心人皆有之，整容无可厚非。更何况美丽自己，愉悦他人，既是礼貌的一部分，也是自我的一种体现。整容业的产生和发展是医学进步的产物，也是当社会稳定、物质生活在很大程度上得到满足之后的精神层面的追求。 思路 2：不支持整容。 整容是对美丽的误解。真正的美应该是内在美，来自于良好的自身修养，以及高尚的道德品质。过分注重外表会让人忽略对内在美的追求。整容也会带来许多直接的恶果。比如隆胸手术容易使女性患乳腺癌等。还有迈克尔 -杰克逊就是一个典型的整容手术失败的例子。 范文主要采纳了思路 2进行写作。 【知识模块】 作文
