【单元写作目标】
在2015年九年级英语全册Unit7 Teenagers should be allowed to choose their own clothes的学习中，学生们将掌握一项关键技能——如何有效地表达对青少年规则的观点和理由。本单元的重点在于使用特定句型描述规则，表达个人见解，并运用连接词来增强文章的连贯性和逻辑性。
1. 描述规则：
- 使用"have to / must (not)…"，"can / can’t…"以及"be allowed to do / allow sb. (not) to do sth."等句型来表达青少年必须遵守或禁止的行为。例如：
- "Teenagers are not allowed to smoke."
- "Eighteen-year-olds can’t get their driver’s licenses."
- "We teenagers can’t wear silly earrings."
- "We must not take photos. It’s not allowed in the museum."
- "Xiaoming has to clean his bedroom every day."
- "Parents and teachers allow teenagers to do social work for their community."
2. 表达观点和理由：
- 使用"I think / believe that I should be allowed…"，"In my opinion / view, they should allow me to do…"，"I think it is unfair to…"，"I agree / disagree that…"，"That’s why / because..."等句型来阐述自己的看法及其原因。例如：
- "I don’t agree that teenagers should have their own hobbies because hobbies can get in the way of their schoolwork. They need to spend more time on their homework. However, I disagree with you. In my opinion, I think parents should support their children’s dreams. That’s because dreams can make children work hard and full of energy."
- "Most parents believe that their children should be educated to take care of themselves from a young age. I agree. It’s very important to get a good education when kids are young."
- "I don’t think sixteen-year-olds should be allowed to drive because they aren’t serious enough. I agree. To be honest, I’m worried about their safety."
- "In my view, teenagers should be allowed to make their own decisions. It might be true. But I think they are too young to make right decisions."
3. 连接词的使用：
- "What’s more", "so...that...", "to be honest", "however", "on the one hand", "on the other hand"等词汇和短语可用来连接不同的观点或增强论据的说服力。例如：
- "Teenagers are often criticized for being irresponsible, what’s more, they are not always taken seriously by adults. On the one hand, this is understandable due to their lack of experience; on the other hand, it’s important to remember that they are constantly learning and growing."
通过本单元的学习，学生不仅能学会如何描述青少年应遵守的规则，还能有效地表达自己的观点，同时通过使用适当的连接词，使论述更加有条理，提高写作的表达效果。这样的训练有助于提升学生的批判性思维和语言组织能力，为未来的学术写作奠定坚实基础。
