Answer

Dear all,

It’s a Chinese tradition to set off firecrackers at the Spring Festival. However, more and more people have realized that firecrackers are doing more harm than good.

Setting off the firecrackers harms the environment. First of all, it gives off many harmful gases which will pollute the air. On the Eve of the Spring Festival, the noise of the firecrackers goes on all night and makes it impossible for people to fall asleep. The next morning the ground is all covered with rubbish from firecrackers. Besides, firecrackers can cause fires if people are not careful enough. Sometimes people will get injured or even killed.

Let’s set off fewer or even no firecrackers. In this way, we will not only enjoy the festival more, but also make a difference to our environment.

【解析】

试题分析：这篇短文要求我们就春节时是否燃烧爆竹写一封倡议书。我们知道，春节燃放爆竹是我们的传统，但是燃放爆竹可能会带来一些危险或害处，我们需要在倡议书中来把它带来的害处讲清楚，并且呼吁青少年在过节时不要燃放爆竹。题目中已经给我们写好了开头，点明了主题，即春节燃放爆竹有很多的害处。接下来我们要按照这个内容续下去，写一写到底有哪些害处，这些内容是需要我们自己来补充的。例如，燃放爆竹可能会污染环境，可能会影响别人休息，对放爆竹的人来说有危险等等。我们要用正确的英语将这些内容表达出来。最后结尾时可以对青少年不要燃放爆竹发出呼吁。这样整篇短文的结构就非常合理，很完整。写作时，注意使用正确的时态和人称，并且多用好的词汇和句型，使文章表达流畅。

【亮点说明】这是一篇优秀的范文。作者按照题目要求，对过节燃放爆竹的危害进行了阐述，主要从三个方面来说明的。一是First of all, it gives off many harmful gases which will pollute the air.；第二个是the noise of the firecrackers goes on all night and makes it impossible for people to fall asleep.这句话中使用了句型make it impossible for sb. to do sth.，非常准确；接下来是The next morning the ground is all covered with rubbish from firecrackers；下面作者用besides这个词，表示补充，firecrackers can cause fires if people are not careful enough. Sometimes people will get injured or even killed。最后一段中作者向青少年们发出呼吁，过节时不要燃放爆竹，重申了主题，和文章开头对应起来。整篇短文结构合理，收尾呼应，理由充分合理，表达流畅。
