中间段的写作其实非常简单，只需要把提纲中的信息按照顺序写成语句就行了，只是中国考生要学会逻辑连接、句式连接并避免抽象地空谈。

比如：

A company has announced that it wishes to build a large factory near your community. Discuss the advantages and disadvantages of this new influence on your community. Do you support or oppose the factory? Explain your position.

假设考生写的第一层是建工厂的好处，第二层是建工厂的坏处（注意这是一道比较/反差类题目）。现在我们写第二层：建工厂对社区不好，而想写的是环境方面的内容，提纲可以是：

Harmful: [pollution], not worth it

——Air: acid rain, ozone depletion ,greenhouse

——Water: drinking water

——Trees: floods and droughts

这个段落可以这样写：

Building large factories would be harmful to the community because it will induce environmental pollution. Factories, especially those emoloying toxic chemicals, will definitely destroy the quality of air and water in town. They generate smog and other atmospheric emissions which contribute to the greenhouse effect, ozone depletion and acid rain; they dump industrial waste into rivers which are supposed to be drinking water supply; they accelerate the deforestation which is proven to be responsible for abnormal floods and regional drought. And people's health is at stake. Having a few factories is not worth that risk.

再比如：

It is generally agreed that society benefits from the work of its members. Compare the contributions of artists to society with the contributions of scientists to society. Which type of contribution do you think is valued more by your society? Give specific reasons to support your answer.

假设考生写的第一层是关于艺术家对社会的贡献，第二层写科学家对社会的贡献，而想写的内容是环境方面的，提纲可以写成：

· Scientists: more obvious

——Advancement: Plane, computer, vacuum cleaner

——Make our lives easier, more secure

——Help arts: CD, TV, movie, mp3

这个段落可以这样写：

The contributions scientists make to society are more obvious than those made by artists. Almost all the critical advancements that make our lives easier, such as the plane we take to travel abroad, the computers we use (whether for work or for entertainments), and the home appliances which help us cook our meals and clean our houses, come from the creative ideas and hard work of scientists. Those scientific discoveries and innovations make out work more efficient, our shopping more convenient, and our lives more secure. Plus, to some extent scientists even contribute a lot to the arts——without technological progress, there wouldn’t have been movie centers, television, and mp3 players which infuse art into ordinary people’s lives.

最后还有一例：

Some people believe that university students should be required to attend classes. Others believe that going to classes should be optional for students. Which point of view do you agree with? Use specific reasons and details to explain your answer.

假设考生要写第三层： 听课使我们学会服从，听课帮我们学会合作，听课让我们更深刻地理解肯本内容。现在写第二层：听课让我们学会合作，提纲如下：

· Cooperation

——Group assignment: impossible for 1 person/ need different perspectives

——Cooperate: budget time, assign tasks, be perfect, express opinions

——Ready for challenges at work

这个段落就可以这样写：

Attending class teaches students how to cooperate with others. Different from students in primary or secondary school, university students are often given group assignments which are technically impossible for one person to finish in time or which have no universal answers and, therefore, need to be contemplated from various perspectives. As a result, boys and girls are forced to learn how to work with others for a common goal——such as how to budget time and assign tasks according to each person’s skills without causing “free-ride”, how to perfect your task without annoying other team mates, and how to express your opinion about other member’s work without triggering frictions or stupid fights. All of the above make college students mature and sensible, ready to meet the challenges they will soon face in the workplace. Therefore, attending classes is necessary for university students.

通过以上三个例子，可以发现其实最重要的是在列提纲的时候组织事实，中间段只是用正确的语句和词汇表达这些事实。
