GRE英語作文點評：半讓步半反駁式文章

　　"Most of the people we consider heroic today were, in fact, very ordinary people who happened to be in the right place at the right time."

　　I agree with the statement insofar as our heroes tend to be ordinary people like us. However,I strongly disagree with the further assertion that people become heroes simply by being "in the right place at the right time." If we look around at the sorts of people we choose as our heroes, we realize that heroism has far less to do with circumstance than with how a hero responds to it.

　　I concede that heroes are generally ordinary people. In my observation we choose as our heroes people with whom we strongly identify--people who are very much like us. In fact many of us call a parent, grandparent, or older sibling our hero. Why? My intuition is that the more a person shares in common with us--my terms of experience, heritage, disposition, motives, and even physical attributes--the more accessible that person's heroic traits are to us, and the stronger their attraction as a role model. And few would dispute that we share more in common with immediately family than with anyone else.

　　這明顯的又是一篇半讓步式半反駁式文章。

　　典型句子結構：

　　I concede that...In my observation...In fact...Why? My intuition is that...

　　然后用漸強式句子來強調原題觀點的正確：

　　The more...the more..., the more...

　　Few would dispute that...

　　但，在第二段就正式進入反駁并衍生觀點了：However, the statement's further

　　suggestion that...is simply wrongheaded.

　　However, the statement's further suggestion that people become heroes merely as a result of circumstances not of their own choosing is simply wrongheaded. Admittedly, circumstance often serves as a catalyst for heroism. After all, without wars there would be no
