今年的题目相比以往而言，宏观话题变化不大。但是出题方式更加接地气儿了，这需要我们考生对社会上的时事新闻有一定的了解。今年年初考的幼儿的管教，探险，驾驶安全，明星效应等等都属于此类题型。当然，我们也非常幸运地迎来了一些老题：间隔年利弊题，想必大家都非常熟悉！另一道关于青少年犯罪的题目应该也在大家的考前手册里经常出现。接下来，让我们温故而知新，回顾一下这道经典题。烤鸭们请重点关注相关词汇，短语表达。
2015年4月25日考题如下：
Yong people who commit serious crimes，such as robbery or violent attack should be punished in the same way as adults.To what extent do you agree or disagree？
大多数同学对这道题的思路把握还是比较清晰的。如果有到现在还一脸茫然的小烤鸭们，那就真的应该好好面壁思过下啦。好嘞！废话不多说，切入正题！
VIP课堂上，我特别强调开头段可以不写背景句，但是一定要告诉读者我们讨论的话题是什么。那对于这道题而言，话题很显然就是青少年犯罪可否与成年人同罚。引出话题之后，我们可以言简意赅地表明自己的立场。表达立场有一个原则，那就是尽量符合客观现象。在客观社会中，就量刑而言，青少年犯罪其实是有别于成人的。因此，我们的立场就应该很清楚了。
主体段的写作，对于这种同意与否的题目，原则上很少有支持的情况。所以我建议采取“让步段+反驳段”的结构。因为这样有利于我们的行文更有逻辑。让步段的观点可以列出：1.青少年犯下重罪，对社会影响大。此点和成年人没有不同之处，因此予以相同处罚；2.这种惩罚方式对其他潜在罪犯有震慑力，有杀鸡儆猴的作用。反驳段我们可以写：1.青少年较成年人而言心智不够成熟，更易冲动犯罪，重刑对他们不公平。2.一些重刑会对青少年的心理造成不良影响，致使其未来再次犯罪。3.鉴于青少年犯罪一般有道德问题，教育不失为一种更加有效的惩罚措施。
以下是范文，供参考：
Our society now is now facing an increasing level of juvenile delinquency, which is commonly concerned by the general population. According to some people, imposing the same punishment on them as what is done to the adult crimes would be an effective way to mitigate this problem.
They have some seemingly reasonable arguments of course and one of them is that if how to punish criminals is based on the magnitude of the influence underage crimes have on the society, then it would be justified that the youth who commit crimes deserve an equivalent treatment that the adults face. Such crimes such as murder or burglary are proved to jeopardize the stability of a society as it cases a great deal of fears. The same punishment would also have an added benefit that a deterrent could derive from it, which may prevent potential law breakers from committing crimes. In little likelihood, people would do harm to others taking the risk of being heavily punished.
However, those who believe that heavy treatment can eradicate the underage crimes may ignore the fact that the majority of the young are often break the law out of being spontaneously, this is not the case with adult criminals. In other words, the way the youth are punished is not fair to them. It would be too arbitrary if the government sentences one individual when they are not mature enough as what should be done to the mature. There are development issues to be concerned as well. Unlike most adults, the general underage do not have a clear view of their future life and who they want to be, and I believe that some punishing actions such as imprisoning may only exacerbate this problem. It is unfortunate that many young criminals choose to commit crimes again and again after they sit out of the jail.
In conclusion, putting the premature who make mistakes under torturing treatment is a short-sight measure to ease juvenile delinquency. Perhaps education-oriented strategies are more suitable for such cases.
祝同学们考试顺利！
