　　話題：United States- wellness programs bring lots of benefits to the companies and employees

　　閱讀觀點

　　1. become a motivational tool for people to lose weight and quit smoking，research shows that cash can make people change their habit more easily。

　　2. 獎勵只針對達到目標的員工，有點not fair。

　　3. although cost companies a lot of money, 從long term角度能收回來。

　　聽力觀點【反駁閱讀】

　　1. 短期減小，是一個動力but can not keep for a long period. Research shows that after several years the people are back to their bad habit.

　　2. not fair是因為每個人自身條件不一樣的。Some people have no time to exercise, because they need to take care of their family and to cope with chores, some people are genetically fat and they need to be charged higher because會花更多時間。

　　3. 收不回來many employees not stay in one company forever, they will change for their own financial benefits to other company，政府也沒有政策去幫助員工，所以損失大。

　　Independent Writing

　　Do you agree or disagree with the following statement?

　　Classmates and partners can communicate with each other in person to finish the project better than by sending e-mail.

　　【考題內(nèi)容】你是否同意以下觀點?小伙伴們想要更好去完成一項工作，面對面交流的方式會比發(fā)送郵件更好。

　　【題型分析】聯(lián)系face-to-face communication。

　　【謀篇布局】

　　Para 1: Introduction.(大背景引入話題，表明立場)

　　社會發(fā)展科技進步，越來越多的交流方式進入了人們的生活。In my opinion, nothing beats speaking to another person face-to-face. For group or study fellows, in person conversation is the most convenient form, because it can eliminate misunderstandings immediately, cement relationships and encourage continued interaction.

　　Para 2: Body Paragraph 1(分論點，解釋，舉例)

　　The first and most obvious advantage of face-to-face communication has over an e-mail is that there is the ability for an interactive conversation. 如果發(fā)送的郵件中存在誤解，那小組成員要花很多的時間去糾正這個誤解，以致會拖累整個project的進度，而面對面交流不存在這樣的問題。

　　Para 3: Body Paragraph 2(分論點，解釋，舉例)

　　When doing a conversation in person, you communicate with more than verbal words, instead, you express with your body language and even your tone of voice. 在完成一個項目的時候，成員們很有可能會產(chǎn)生思想或觀點上的碰撞，發(fā)送郵件會導致很多誤解造成團隊合作的不和諧。Joking and irony are particularly difficult to express, identify and enjoy without seeing the expression on one’s face, or watching the movements of their bodies.

　　Para 4: Body Paragraph 3(讓步Concession)

　　Admittedly, sending e-mails to partners bears its certain advantages, like organizing logic minds or storing some vital information. 但是要高效地去完成一個工作，面對面交流還是最重要的一種方式，其他方式可做輔助功能。

　　Para 5: Conclusion(重申觀點)

　　In conclusion, communication in person is more important.
