在CET4/6試題中，有兩個拉分最厲害的部分，一是聽力題，一是作文題。，跟漢語作文的“起承轉合”類似，英語作文其實也有固定模式，
我到那裡一看，果然有五個模板，認真拜讀一遍之後，不由得大吃二驚。第一驚的是：我們中國真是高手如林，多麼複雜、困難的問題，都能夠迎刃而解，實在佩服之極。第二驚的是：“八股文”這朵中國傳統文化的奇葩，在凋謝了一百多年之後，竟然又在中華大地上重新含苞怒放，真是可喜可賀。
感慨之後，轉入正題。這五個模板，在結構上大同小異，掌握一種即可，所以我從中挑選了一個最簡單、最實用的，稍加修改，給各位介紹一下。這個模板的中文大意是：在某種場合，發生某種現象，並提供一些相關資料，然後列出這種現象的三個原因，並將三個原因總結為一個最主要原因，最後提出避免這種現象的兩個辦法。總的來說，利用這個模板寫英語作文，是相當容易的，您只要將適當的內容，填寫到對應的'方括號中，一篇通順的英語作文即可完成。下面就是這個模板。
Nowadays， there are more and more [某種現象] in [某種場合]。 It is estimated that [相關資料]。 Why have there been so many [某種現象]? Maybe the reasons can be listed as follows。 The first one is [原因一]。 Besides， [原因二]。 The third one is [原因三]。 To sum up， the main cause of [某種現象] is due to [最主要原因]。 It is high time that something were done upon it。 For one thing， [解決辦法一]。 On the other hand， [解決辦法二]。 All these measures will certainly reduce the number of [某種現象]。
為便於讀者理解，我特意用這個模板，寫了一篇關於ghost writer(捉刀代筆的槍手)的示範性小作文，請您觀摩一下。
Nowadays， there are more and more [ghost writers / 槍手] in [China"s examinations / 中國的考場]。 It is estimated that [5% examinees are ghost writers / 5%的應試者是槍手]。 Why have there been so many [ghost writers / 槍手]? Maybe the reasons can be listed as follows。 The first one is [hirers" ignorance / 僱主無知]。 Besides， [hirers" indolence / 僱主懶惰]。 The third one is [hirers" obtusity / 僱主遲鈍]。 To sum up， the main cause of [ghost writers / 槍手] is due to [hirers" low IQ / 僱主智商低]。 It is high time that something were done upon it。 For one thing， [flagellation / 鞭打]。 On the other hand， [decapitation / 斬首]。 All these measures will certainly reduce the number of [ghost writers / 槍手]。 (實習編輯：夏根建)
