答案
Spending Time with Friends Friends are people who support us through our lives. Some people prefer to have one or two close friends. However, others prefer to spend their time with many friends. I think that the number of friends depends on one’s personality. Personally, I prefer to have a couple of close friends. In this essay I will analyze both cases and present my view in favor of having just one or two close friends. On one hand, when we spend time with several people, we can share our ideas with and collect information from various different sources. It broadens our horizons and makes us aware of different points of view on any subject. It also makes us socially more active and as is commonly said, "Man is supposed to be a social animal." However, the joy attained from the company of several friends does not require affinity among the group members. Only being gregarious and outgoing is enough to create a pleasant ambiance for everyone. On the other hand, being with a couple of close friends helps us to achieve a level of intimacy not possible in a large group. We develop a bona between us that is hard to break. We share an understanding, which leads to high levels of loyalty. Although the number is small, there is a special and unique affinity and cordiality in the atmosphere that wouldn’t be there when we are with a group of friends. Although with few people around the scope of our activities get limited, it is compensated by the happiness and bliss we receive from the warm atmosphere. What’s more, with a couple of close friends around, we feel no stress or burden. We don’t really have to do anything in particular together. For us the significance lies in the fact that we are together, sharing our time. Although I also enjoy spending time with a group of friends. I dare not compare the elation I receive from my close friends with the fulfillment I get from the party of more than a few friends. As the saying goes, "I can spend hours without uttering a single word with my friend and I’d have the best conversation ever." Due to these reasons, I prefer having a couple of close friends. I am sure that my close friends will always help me and never betray me or turn me down whenever a situation becomes unmanageable.
解析
本文结构安排合理、过渡自然。作者在开头段提出了自己的观点,表明自己比较喜欢和一两个朋友独处。不过在第二段中,作者却介绍了和一群朋友一起玩的好处,看似偏题,实则不然,在该段的最后,作者将笔锋一转,马上指出在和一群朋友在一起时,彼此是不需要亲密关系的,只要爱交际或是外向些就可以为每个人营造出快乐的氛围。可见,第二段其实只是让步段,介绍和一群朋友在一起的优点只是为了对此进行驳斥。由此,作者自然地过渡到介绍和一两个亲密朋友在一起的好处,最后顺理成章地做出总结,即就作者本身而言,还是喜欢和一两个朋友在一起。从语言上看,本文长短句交替使用,册同地道精准,值得一提的是,作者还注意到了通过引用俗语来提高说服力和趣味性。
