第四届Insight全国中学生写作大赛报名开启!现在你有机会获得数万元大奖!

第四届“Insight 杯”全国高中生英语写作比赛为HEC哈斯教育主办,思客教育协办的年度写作赛事,旨在给高中生一个锻炼写作能力的机会。学生可以在组委会提供的选题中选择自己喜欢的话题进行非虚构写作,递交后有机会获得课程、现金等丰厚奖品。Insight的往届获奖同学(分布在当时的9-11年级)已经被芝加哥、JHU、USC、剑桥、牛津等大学录取。

 

希望能在这次写作比赛中,激发学生主动学习积极思考的能力,培养学生的结构思考力,多角度看问题、思考更全面。写作比赛不单单是咬文嚼字,更多的是在字里行间培养自身反向思维逻辑,比如怎么提炼主题、怎么选择材料、怎么构思谋篇、怎么描写论证等。对于综合学科的成绩提升也有一定的帮助。

    竞赛选题

    *5选一,字数500-560字

     

    01

    How have barriers (masks, social distancing, quarantine, lockdown) affected you over the last year? What kind of experiences have you had with barriers that have made you see the world differently? How does putting up a barrier change the distance between two things?

     

    02

    How has physical distance manifested itself into emotional or psychological distance in your own life? 

     

    03

    How are you distanced from those you feel closest to? Why does that gap exist?

     

    04

    “A change is just around the corner”. Why do we use physical distance to discuss time? How are the ideas of distance and time connected in your own life? How has distance increased or decreased to things, people, and feelings over time in your life?

     

    05

    “If you are depressed, you are living in the past. If you are anxious, you are living in the future. If you are at peace, you are living in the present.” ― Lao Tzu. 

     

    How has distance between what has happened and what will happen affected your life? What experiences have caused you to be intimately close to your present consciousness at that time?
