  Another example is FranzLiszt, now considered a master of classical music. But Liszt was a rock star ofhis time - his performance was dramatic and captivating and he had hordes ofscreaming fans that crowded his concerts. A new word was even invented todescribe the frenzy he generated: Lisztomania. The same can be said of NiccoloPaganini, Liszt's inspiration and predecessor and another giant of classicalmusic.

  分析:能增强文章说服力的最佳方式就是有足够多的细节支撑,所以例子还是尽量丰富些。

  Therefore it is extremelyunwise for us to dismiss culture today simply because it is "pop", asfew can predict which of the "pop" would become "classic"in the future. Much more recently than Liszt, the Beatles are now considered agreat classic of music, and yet they were "pop" some 50 years ago.

  又一个例子。

  But the value of pop culturelies in far more than its possible future conditions. Pop culture is valuableright here and now, because it is a powerful form of media and therefore canconvey useful and important information to its audience. Consider for exampleLady Gaga, the reigning queen of pop music as of 2014. Many take offense to herstyle and image because its too "pop". And yet many influentialcritics and the music scene in general recognize the immense social andcultural values of her works. She addresses important issues in many of hersongs, for example that of same sex marriage ("Americano"), feminism("Scheiss"), and the impact and effect of the global mass mediaitself ("Paparazzi", "Applause"). Countless listeners havefound courage and personal inspiration from Lady Gaga's songs, and she is fullyaware of and vigorously promotes her leadership in social change and progress.

  点评:引出第二个分论点,加以递进:流行文化一样可以影响深远,Lady Gaga的作品及其涉及的社会意义足见作者对细节把握的准确,到位。

  Therefore, I think popculture is of great value, both in terms of potential value in the future inthe sense that some of our "pop" culture will inevitably live on tobecome "classic" for future generations, and in terms of currentvalue in the sense that pop culture is a powerful form of media to instigatesocial progress. Anyone who rejects pop culture's value without second thoughthas surely missed what is truly wonderful and magnificent.

  点评:结尾段用不同表达方式再次呈现两个分论点,重新阐明总观点,一样是不同的表达方式。

  总体看来,文章结构清晰,遵循议论文总分总的结构框架;同时例证论证双管齐下,细节扣题,毫无赘述;最重要的是,作者的例子选择足见日常的积累广度和思考的深度,也令这篇文章处处可圈可点,这些优点都是考生们应该学习的地方。
