关于“考研议论文到底要分几段”的问题,一直是众说纷纭,莫衷一是。其实,考研写作是一种严谨的标准化测试,阅卷老师有统一的评判标准。那么,写作时究竟分成几段才会达到阅卷老师的“心理期待”呢?笔者认为:两段、三段、四段都是合理的。事实上,近些年试卷中也有两段或者四段作文得满分的情况,但是那样的满分作文属于小概率事件,不在我们的考虑范围之内。
其实,考研作文的分段问题已经被国家考研命题组的专家们在试卷中规定得非常清楚了,只不过大部分同学没有注意而已,或者即使注意了也没想到这种规定跟作文分段有关系。
让我们来看看近三年的考研作文题干,答案就在其中。

通过分析最近三年图画式议论文的题干要求,我们得知:考研命题组专家已经通过题干的方式明确告诉我们考研写作的最佳分段方式——黄金三段!由此,笔者得出结论:
考研议论文=第一段描述图画+第一段阐释寓意+第三段说明你的观点
了解了出题者的意图,下面的工作就轻而易举了。我们只要总结出相关句型,然后熟练使用就可以了。虽然2008年具体的考研作文题目还没有出炉,但是我们已经提前一年预测出了其命题思路以及应对方案,这就是“未雨绸缪”,“以不变应万变”!

黄金三段2005年真题应用示例
As can be seen from the cartoon,
an old man is folded into
a ball in the centre and his three sons and one daughter stand in
each of the four corners as goal keepers, ready to kick the “ball” away.
It goes without saying that the pictures reflect a common and
serious problem in China
—
some people are not willing to support
their parents. The thought-provoking picture can be best illustrated
by the following examples
.
People often make excuses for refusing to
support their elderly parents. They have forgotten how their parents
took care of them, and have betrayed the Chinese tradition of respecting
seniors. In a civilized society, I find it shameful that such things happen.
In my opinion, three effective measures must be immediately taken to solve the problem. To begin with, we should lead people to be aware of this issue. Furthermore, the changes must begin with ourselves. And we address the problem within ourselves before looking to others to change. In changing ourselves we change the world. Finally, we must resort to punishment by law, a powerful weapon to protect the elementary rights of aged citizens.
