》反对的写法举例 [AGAINST--OPPOSE]
1. 起 Introduction
Construction of a large shopping center will do more harm than good to our neighborhood. While some neighbors welcome the news in excitement over the forthcoming progress, others like me are against the plan for nostalgic reason. The choice is up to the majority of residents. We either stop the proposed mall from being built, or lose forever the only playground we have left.

4. 合 Conclusion
In spite of all possible economic benefits a large shopping center can promise to deliver, there is no substitute for the old lifestyle cherished so fondly by families in the community. We have little to gain from an undesirable monster building that is likely to affect our environment. We had better keep our neighborhood as we remember it and not as it may become. If only for nostalgic reason, we hate to miss the merry sight and sound of children having a good time in the playground.
赞成的写法举例 [FOR--SUPPORT]
1. 起 Introduction
Our old neighborhood can get a face-lift if the proposed mall is to be constructed. Probably for nostalgic reason, some older neighbors prefer to turn a deaf ear to the announcement, but many welcome the news as too good to be true. We have been expecting that kind of progress to come near us, even at the expense of tranquility in lifestyle. The choice is now up to the residents. We either support building the mall, or lose our only chance to reactivate our community.
2. 承 Body A

4. 合 Conclusion
It may become clear that we cannot win a better economic future with a neighborhood of the past. In fact, if the construction happens, we have much to gain and little to lose other than perhaps a sense of nostalgia. That some residents are used to old lifestyles as if living in the countryside is understandable. For these sentimental neighbors, the consolation is that they can continue living in the same neighborhood as remembered as well as enjoying the new and dynamic neighborhood it may become.
