同学们在备考GRE时要注意方法和技巧的运用，出国留学网GRE栏目为大家带来GRE考试Issue写作的答题要求讲解，希望对大家有所帮助!

作为GRE作文改革的一大变化，ETS为所有的ISSUE作文都附上了一个写作指引;结合具体的ISSUE题目类型，每道ISSUE题目后面的写作指引有可能是下面六个中的一个，具体如下：

1. Write a response in which you discuss the extent to which you agree or disagree with the statement and explain your reasoning for the position you take. In developing and supporting your position* you should consider ways in which the statement might or might not hold true and explain how these considerations shape your position.

2. Write a response in which you discuss the extent to which you agree or disagree with the recommendation and explain your reasoning for the position you take. In developing andsupporting your position, describe specific circumstances in which adopting the recommendation would or would not be advantageous and explain how these examples shape your position.

3. Write a response in which you discuss the extent to which you agree or disagree with the claim. In developing and supporting your position, be sure to address the most compelling reasons and/or examples that could be used to challenge your position.

4. Write a response in which you discuss which view more closely aligns with your own position and explain your reasoning for the position you take. In developing and supporting your position, you should address both of the views presented.

5. Write a response in which you discuss the extent to which you agree or disagree with the claim and the reason on which that claim is based.

6. Write a response in which you discuss your views on the policy and explain your reasoning for the position you take. In developing and supporting your position, you should consider the possible consequences of implementing the policy and explain how these consequences shape your position.

可以看出，这六种写作指引都是由两句话组成。前一句实质意义都不大，关键的指引在后 一句。其中，3.4.6的后半句尤为典型。

指引3的后一句 be sure to address the most compelling reasons and/or examples that could be used to challenge your position是要求考生一定要论及自我立场的对立方会用哪些最有力的 理由和例证来挑战自己的观点。这实际是要求考生在作文中一定要论及反方立场，所以，必 须从两方面写。

指引6一般出现在后面马上就要讲到的建议类ISSUE题目中。这个指引的后一句 consider the possible consequences of implementing the policy是要求考生必须要考虑到题目中 一项政策提议或建议的可能后果。常识告诉我们，当提出一项建议，就要求考虑该项建议的可 能后果，此时要考虑的内容只能是实施那项建议所可能导致的不良后果。这样，建议本身以及 建议可能产生的后果又构成一个问题的两个方面，所以，又必须从两方面来写。

至于指引4的后一句you should address both of the views presented，这已经是直白地要 求考生一定要论及题目中两个不同或矛盾的立场。不从两方面写是不可能了。等到读者看到具体带有指引4的ISSUE题目，就会非常清楚这个指引的实质了。

实际上，指引2也几乎总是出现在建议类ISSUE题目中。这个指引的后一句describe specific circumstances in which adopting the recommendation would or would not be advantageous 要求考生在作文中一定要论及题目中的建议会导致有利或不利的结果的具体情形。考虑一 个建议的正、反两种结果的思路，体现在作文中只能是从两方面写的思路。

带有指引1和指引5的ISSUE题目本身没有明确提示要从两方面写，但大家随后在理解和 应用1+5写作模型的时候会发现，对这两类ISSUE题目采用两方面写的策略的话，会感觉 无论切入题目分析还是展开写作思路都非常方便和自然。
