问题     With the rapid economic development, the average living standards of our country have greatly improved. Meanwhile, we are faced with a glaring social problem—the widening gap between the rich and the poor. What do you think of the gap in our country? Do you have any suggestions? State your opinion with appropriate supporting details.
    Write a composition of about 200 words on the following topic;
    Widening Gap between the Rich and the Poor
选项
答案     Widening Gap between the Rich and the Poor
    These days we often hear about discussions about the widening gap between the rich and the poor. In my opinion, though it is an inevitable phenomenon in the process of reform, the ever-growing contrast between the rich and the poor in China may give rise to lots of problems.
    First of all, it may contribute to social instability. Confucius once said, "A nation is not troubled by poverty, but by disparity. " Unfairness in the distribution of wealth puts the society at stake. Disappointed with their poor life, the disadvantaged have no hope in their future and take a hostile attitude towards the advantaged. Then some of them take risks and commit various crimes, resulting in high crime rate and social unrest.
    Secondly, the rich-poor disparity may lead to inequality of opportunities in education, training, employment, recreation, etc. The poor cannot afford soaring education expenses, while the kids of the rich can study in schools with good teachers and facilities. Inequality in education results in differences in career development, which in turn worsens the situation—the rich become richer and the poor poorer-All in all, it is high time that our government took effective measures to improve the situation. Education is the best cure for poverty. The government should make more investment to ensure equal chances of education. We should create more job opportunities for urban residents and accelerate development in poor regions to narrow the rich-poor division so that all people can enjoy the benefits of our economic reform.
解析     本题是一个自由发挥型题目。贫富差距拉大是我们目前面对的一个重要的现实问题。题目要求将贫富差距作为话题，可以有多种思路：
    思路1：贫富差距日益加剧的原因。
    当前收入分配差距拉大，是由多种原因造成的。主要因素是：由体制弊端和法治漏洞造成的公有资产流失和不公平竞争；历史上形成并继续扩大的城乡差距和工农差距；由市场扭曲造成的企业和个人在经济上的分化；由于财政转移支付功能缺乏和社会保障制度缺陷而未能抑制差别迅速扩大等。
    思路2：贫富差距的影响。
    贫富差距过大影响社会稳定，先哲孔子早就说过：“民不患寡而患不均”；此外，贫富差距还直接导致各种机会的不平等，很重要的一点就是接受教育培训的机会；教育机会的不平等又会导致就业发展的差异，最后又拉大了贫富差距，导致穷者越穷，富者越富。
    思路3：如何解决贫富差距问题。
    平等是实现社会收入公平的根本途径，包括机会平等和结果平等两个方面。机会平等就是让所有的社会成员在就业、投资、职务升迁、赚钱赢利等方面获得均等的机会。结果平等指个人的努力与所得的对称，一个人只要有能力，勤奋努力，抓住机会，就可以从低收人者进人高收人者行列。税收是国家调控经济的重要杠杆之一。强化税收的调节作用，对于缩小贫富差距，促进和谐社会的建设有重要意义。
    范文采用了思路2和3，着重讨论了贫富差距拉大这种社会现象的影响，并提出了解决方案。
