Answer 1

As we know, with the development of economy, the number of cars is increasing very rapidly, thus causing some social problems. For example, people are often caught in a traffic jam, especially at rush hour and car accidents have occurred more often than ever. What’s more, the car is one of the major problems resulting in global warming. So I think it’s a good idea for many European countries to set September 22nd as “No Cars Day”.
Although a one-day campaign can hardly generate enough long-term influence to change people’s behaviour, at least, it can remind people of the harm that cars do to our society, and encourage more people to travel by bicycle or public transport. In my view, it’s not the day but the awareness of all the people to help solve social problems that really matters.

试题分析：考查开放性作文的写作。本文的话题是无烟日，需要考生具体从交通堵塞、环境污染、车祸频发三个方面展开，最后说明自己支持无烟日的活动。写作时注意准确运用时态，上下文意思连贯，符合逻辑关系，尽量使用自己熟悉的单词句式，同时也要注意使用高级词汇和高级句型使文章显得更有档次。特别注意在选择句式时要赋予变化。
点评：开放性作文只给出了一个话题，给考生自由发挥的余地很大。对于考生的综合能力要求较高，要求考生有很强的谋篇布局的能力和组织要点的能力。在完成开放性作文时，首先要选择自己熟悉的短语或者句型，在你的能力范围之内，选择句式时要赋予变化，因为这样你才可以更好的驾驭。同时也要选择合适的连接词，把各个要点组织成一个完整的整体，如besides, further, last but not least等。在发表个人观点的时候，可以使用谚语来提升整个文章的档次和文采，也能增加得高分的可能性。
