选项
答案    A letter to the House Council of her dormitory Members of House Council,
   As a resident of Blanding Tower, I am concerned with the visitation hours established for my dormitory. While the hours may be the same in all dormitories, the enforcement of these hours does not correspond with the Tower’ s, and the hours are not fair or just. These hours sabotage the independence of the residents and remove their freedom of choice.
   My first point is concerning fairness. Is it fair that boys’ dorms and Haggin Hall have endless visiting hours while Blanding Tower has an interrogation unit sitting at the front desk? Why is no I.D. needed when entering Kirwan Tower yet is needed in Blanding Tower? Why are residents of Blan ding treated differently than the rest of campus? Blanding Tower is the strictest dorm on campus. Aren’ t the freshman girls mature enough to decide when visitors are appropriate and when visitors are not? I think we deserve more privileges and more credit than we are receiving.
   An example of when personal decision would be better than rules, is when a resident wishes to study with a male classmate. During the week when most studying occurs, visitation ends at 11:15. Very few people I know finish studying before 11:15, so what happens when the guy has to leave? A person has two choices, either to quit studying or head to the noisy commons. If one chooses either of these, good luck! Personally I study best in my dorm room, and I think that I should be able to study there with a friend as late as I feel. After all I paid for it.
   I remember one spectific statement made at Freshman Orientation. An upperclassman stated," You are on your own now. You must make your own decisions; no one will make them for you." If this statement is true, why then is a stranger deciding when I can have visitors? Isn’ t my room by private place?
   I realize that the policy may be set for my own protection, but other choices exist. One suggestion which works on other campuses is having the second set of doors locked and giving each girl a key. With this method only "wanted visitors" are allowed in.
   Maybe this suggestion is not a workable one for this campus but there must be other choices. Visitation must be changed; the rights of Blanding Tower residents must be considered.
   Blanding residents should have just as many rights as anyone else on this campus. Sex or status should not make a difference.
                                              Sincerely,...
解析 这是一封信，所以要注意信的特殊格式，另外为了让自己的观点让别人接受，应有足够的论证理由，然后得出结论。
   在范文中，作者首先说出自己的观点，不同意对寝室规定的造访时间，然后给出两个理由，首先这样不公平，其次应该给学生自己作决定的自由，最后给出建议。全篇文章前后连贯，观点鲜明。
