题目:到国外的人应该accept the new culture,还是form a separate minority with different values and lifestyle.
Recently, the debate over whether people who have been in a foreign country should accept the new culture or form a separate minority with different values and lifestyle has aroused wide concern. People retain diverse attitudes towards this hot issue. Before presenting my view, I intend to explore both sides of the argument.
Many people claim that people living in a new country should accept the new culture and adapt to their new environment. To begin with, by accepting the new notions and lifestyle, you can easily survive and enjoy a comfortable life and be well adaptable. Moreover, it is a necessity for overseas students to adapt to the new culture and society, because it may impose an adverse influence on their living and study if they cannot be socially adaptable. Furthermore, to form a separate minority may bring out negative outcomes such as hostility and resentment. It will undoubtedly exert a negative impact on relationship between people from different nations.
Some other people, however, strongly hold that it is necessary to form a group with their own values and lifestyle for several sound reasons. Firstly, they are in a foreign country and are actually a minority with little power, many of which even have no equal rights. Therefore, it is wise for them to join together to enhance their strength to cope with social problems. Secondly, by helping each other in the group, people can more easily adapt to the new community and society and lead a better life. Thirdly, students in a new environment may more or less have physical or psychological problems, so it is helpful for students to get together to help each other.
From the above discussion, we can see that there is actually some truth in both statements. Personally, I am in favour of the former view. Adaptability is an important quality for people especially students who are going abroad to further their education. After all, even if you form a separate minority, you still have to accept the new culture and adapt to the new settings.(欧扬)

结构方面用了双中,在讨论"入乡随俗"派主张时,明显采用了正反论证,实践了有利生存,不实践滋生敌意怨恨.讨论"保持特色"派时,提出,壮大力量,增进团结,克服困难3个论点.语言上用了不少我们在基础班给大家条件反射的高频词:further education, hostility and resentment, notions and lifestyle等.语言丰富程度值得学习,如反复说适应,分别用到了:adapt to, well adaptable, socially adaptable, easily adapt to, adaptability,说影响,impose an adverse influence on, bring out negative outcomes,exert a negative impact on不过,文章依然有个别可以改进之处,如help,accept等词的重复,完全可以用我们课堂上教过的assist, aid, cooperate, collaborate,join efforts,absorb,assimilate, merger,integrate... into等增色添彩.总的来说,考场上达到这样的程度是难能可贵的,绝对值得我们按以上提示好好做个范文笔记,当场把优点拿来的!^_^
