第一種思路，把重點(diǎn)放在“不同的看法”上，然后略寫(xiě)自己的觀點(diǎn)(支持其中一個(gè)觀點(diǎn)，或者當(dāng)“和事佬”，說(shuō)具體問(wèn)題具體分析)。這時(shí)，要重點(diǎn)考慮：支持請(qǐng)家教的觀點(diǎn)有什么?(激發(fā)學(xué)生學(xué)習(xí)興趣、培養(yǎng)學(xué)生交際能力、提高成績(jī)、充分利用時(shí)間，等等。)反對(duì)請(qǐng)家教，有什么理由?(沒(méi)有必要，課堂上學(xué)好的話，不必請(qǐng)家教；作用不大，如果學(xué)生自己沒(méi)有主動(dòng)性，請(qǐng)廠家教也沒(méi)有用；占用過(guò)多學(xué)生自主學(xué)習(xí)、游玩的時(shí)間，不利于學(xué)生的健康發(fā)展；等等。)

第二種思路是把寫(xiě)作重點(diǎn)放在“我”的看法上。就如范文那樣，先簡(jiǎn)要介紹存在的不同看法，然后著重論述自己的觀點(diǎn)。當(dāng)然，自己的觀點(diǎn)可以是支持，也可以是反對(duì)，但總的說(shuō)來(lái)，要言之成理，要有邏輯性，沿言要銜接、連貫、自然。

Analysis

[1]對(duì)應(yīng)outline的第1條，簡(jiǎn)要說(shuō)明現(xiàn)象

[2]對(duì)應(yīng)outline的第2條，說(shuō)明存在兩種不同的看法。

[3]對(duì)應(yīng)outline的第3條，提出自己的看法。文章剩余部分就用來(lái)論證自己的看法。

[4][6]是[3]的支持句。用first，second關(guān)聯(lián)。

[5][7]分別對(duì)兩個(gè)分論點(diǎn)予以展開(kāi)；

[8]用inoneword總結(jié)自己的觀點(diǎn)。
