議論文
【體裁導航】
寫議論文要注意三個問題：
1．議論文要有論點、論據(jù)和論證三個環(huán)節(jié)(即三個要素)，并在論證的過程中，讓閱卷老師充分感受到你的英語水平。
2．議論文的時態(tài)比較靈活，應根據(jù)具體內容使用正確的時態(tài)。
3．英語的議論文受篇幅限制，短文開頭就應提出論點。
雜議短評類的議論文，就是指通過語言或文字，對某一現(xiàn)象進行議論，或對所讀的材料進行評
析，并通過議論，從而提出自己獨到見解的分析文章。也就是我們平常所說的“小論文”。
雜議和短評本身并無實質性的區(qū)別，只是其范疇有時可能存在一定的差異而已。例如，某年的上海高考英語題，就曾要求對孩子被溺愛的現(xiàn)象進行雜議或短評。近幾年北京的開放作文，也多屬雜議或短評類的一種書面表達形式。
【寫作示例】

One possible version：
Nowadays more and more parents choose to reward their children with money for the progress they have made in their studies.
Why? Most parents devote themselves to their careers due to fierce competition, thus caring less about their children.However, I don’ t think this is a practical and wise choice.Firstly,
if children are always rewarded with money for high marks, their attention will be focused on money instead of the pleasure of studying.Some of them will stop working hard as soon as they get what they want.Secondly, too much money will spoil the children, for they are too young to use money properly.
I think a hug and a kiss will work better for children than money.Money may do them more harm than good.
