第二件事需要restate the issue. 用不同于题目的语言描述问题, 这样的描述体现了你对于问题的理解，也决定了你后文对这个问题的阐述方式。

　　例如这个题目

　　“Scientists and other researchers should focus theirresearch on areas that are likely to benefit the greatest number of people."

　　Restate可以是

　　Scientists and scholars should devote their energy onresearch projects which target at benefiting as many people as possible.

　　或者更加详细的分析，例如这个题目

　　"How children are socialized todaydetermines the destiny of society. Unfortunately, we have not yet learned howto raise children who can help bring about a better society."

　　可以写

　　The speaker’s statement is actually a dualclaim. First, the future of our society is determined by how today’s childrenare socialized. Second, our educational system fails to shape our children intosomeone who can improve various aspects of the society.

　　第三件事情是陈述自己的观点。这里需要涵盖下文所出现的所有论点。如果某个论点没有被包含在内，那么会给读者surprise，这在学术写作里面是很不好的。当然将全文的观点浓缩在1-2句话里是非常困难的。

　　例如这个题目

　　“Educations should find out what students want included in thecurriculum and then offer it to them.”

　　观点可以用两句话说明

　　Although personal interests can serve as motivationfor students to learn better (观点1), it’s unreasonable for educators to incorporate all the different interestsin any curriculum(观点2). Moreover, educations should shape the interests of students and helpthem acquire useful techniques and knowledge (观点3).

　　或者这个题目

　　"It is the artist, not the critic, whogives society something of lasting value."

　　观点可以用一句话说明

　　Although I admit that the virtue of the artlies in the work itself (观点1), we should not overlook critics’ role in discovering, evaluating,and disseminating the work of artists (观点2)and how theyhelp popularize the art’s value in the society (观点3).
