时代发展,新理频出,今日之青少年与其长辈在文化传统、生活方式和价值取向等方面存在着巨大的差别,对同一观念的“解读”往往见仁见智。个人生活的外部环境对其思想认识有着根深蒂固的影响,要清除一代人与另一代人之间情感上的摩擦与心灵上的碰撞决非易事。这也是我们在许多场合经常探讨的一个话题。

在遇到generation gap之类的文题时,我们的学生往往会编造出一些例子(别人的或自己的)来说明代沟的存在和危害,最后的落脚点通常是“少年不知愁滋味”、“枉费父母一片心”等等。这样的立意不能说没有道理,但千篇一律地都这样说(此类范文是许多大学英语考试辅导材料中的常客,此处恕不列举),无疑体现了我们思维的保守和僵化。近日偶然读到一个美国学生的同题作文,读后顿觉有耳目一新之感。原文如下:

Generation Gap

Nowadays,the problem of generation gap becomes more and more serious.Based on the survey by our school,the poor relation ship between parents and their children is very common.Are these problems caused by the busy parents?Or,do the harsh family rules affect their relationship?

Firstly,in most of the families in the US,both of the parents have to go out for work in order to earn more money to provide better environment for their lovely children.Unfortunately,this cause the rare communication between them and their children,since these parents always take rest during leisure time.These parents and children cannot know deeply about each other,then friction is easy to appear.Therefore,a wide generation gap comes into being.

Secondly,parents who ask their children to beabsolute obedient to them is also one of the grave causes of generation gap between them!Therefore,these children are not willing to communicate with their parents and most of these parents are not active to talk with their children.Thus,misunderstanding between them often occurs.

To solve these problems,the busy parents should sacrifice their spare time to communicate with their children actively and friendly to improve their relation.At the same time,they can also observe their children's behavior in order to understand their children's personality as it can reduce the quarrel between them.

Besides that,the parents should try to give up their absolute power in family to give a better image to their children since it can make their children feelfree to chat with their parents.Then it is easy for the parents to approach their lovely children.Therefore,a close and harmonious relation between parents and children appears.

In conclusion,to have a close relationship between parents and children,the parents should devote their leisure time to talking with their children and observing their children's personality and give their children the approaching images.If so,this terrible phenomenon,generation gap,cannot occur anymore.(《欧美流行时尚》,人民日报出版社)

虽然文章个别地方略显拖沓,一些用词尚需推敲,但本文在立意方面颇有借鉴之处。作者独辟蹊径,重在说理,从孩子的视角鲜明地提出了在消除代沟方面父母应该做些什么,殷盼之情,溢于言表,读来很有感染力。另外,在结构方面本文也可圈可点,可谓布局合理,层次分明。在确立文章的主旨后,作者首先开门见山地提出问题,然后依次作答,既列出了造成代沟的两个原因,又提出了解决问题的两个方法。作者使用了一些关键性的承上启下的词,如firstly,secondly,besides that,therefore等,体现了思维的缜密性。

写作水平往往最能体现一个学生的思维创新意识和逻辑语法知识的掌握情况,寻求这两个切入点之间的平衡是在写作方面取得理想成绩的有效手段。从这个意义上说,文章的立意中规中矩、四平八稳固然可以,但我们真正努力的方向还是要做到平中见奇,不落窠臼。
