gre写作辅导：ISSUE问题方式与写作思路

会计考友

　　通过对改革后的立论文分析不难发现，在这149道题目中一共有六种提问方式。让我们归纳总结一下他们的规律。
由于关于claim的问题方式有两次，笔者统一归纳总结成为一种方式，故图中展示的只有五种。仔细关注下statement, recommendation, claim这三个单词，他们在某些方面具有程度递进的关系。
　　1. Statement: the expression in spoken or written words of something such as a fact, intention, or policy, or an instance of this.意为陈述某一事实，意图，政策。重点在于陈述。
　　2. Recommendation: a suggestion as to what is a good or sensible thing to do or use in the circumstances意为合理的建议（比陈述事实更近了一步）
  P; e2 X7 E" G. G, K* U7 M1 g+ ?　　3. Claim: maintain something is true: to say, without proof or evidence, that something is true 意为声明，即便在没有证据的情况下仍然坚持声称某事为真实的
　　从以上的分析中不难看出这三种问法在操作形式上具有程度类比，其中第三种的程度语气更强。
