14、o end a composition(Refer to Page 38 or refer to the ways to end a paragraph).Four purposes of the opening paragraphlIt states the topic of the essay.lIt gives background information on the topic.lIt should arouse the readers curiosity about or interest in the topic.lIt often indicates the focus,pur

15、pose,or direction of the essay.How to write a good opening paragraph?1.Give a striking fact(such as figures,statistics,studies,or researches)or odd problem that can arouse curiosity or interest and that is related to the essay topic.2.Ask a question that the essay will answer.3.Use a vivid quotation

16、 from a good source.4.Tell a story that illustrates the main point of the essay.5.Write a direct opening,setting the mood or scene.Quotation Everything in this universe is perpetually in a stage of change,a fact commented on by philosophers and poets through the ages.If we flick through any book of

17、quotations we find numerous statements about the fluctuating world we live in:“Everything rolled on,nothing stays still,”claims the ancient Greek philosopher Heraclitus in the sixth century B.C.In the sixteenth century,Edmund Spenser speaks of“the ever-whirling wheel of change,the which all mortal t

18、hings doth away,”while“time and the world are ever in flight”is a statement by the twentieth century Irish poet William Butler Yeats to take just a few random samples.Language,like everything else,joins in this general flux (Language Change:Progress or Decay?Jean Aitchison)Quotation If the saying“Yo

21、a-half minutes someone in the U.S.is robbed at gunpoint,and every forty minutes someone else is murdered with a gun.The weapons find their way into the hands of the criminals in a manner that almost nobody understands.Each year police seize about 250,000 handguns and long guns from the people they a

22、rrest.Given the number of guns that the manufacturers produce each year(2.5 million long guns and 4 million handguns)the supply-and-demand equation works against the hope of an orderly society.Questions What will the life be like on a university campus?Do the students of a university have a workload

23、 as heavy as the pupils of a high school?Is it easy to get along with the instructors and professors?These questions lingered on my mind ever since I received the letter of admission from Shandong University of Technology.And I was so anxious to go and see the campus with my own eyes that I even cou

24、ld hardly fall asleep the night before my enrolment because I would begin a life completely new to me.Direct opening A hacker originally refers to a person who chops or cuts roughly and irregularly with a hatchet.But with the widespread application of computers to various aspects of our life and wor
