事由：这一篇雅思英文范文，有网友反应说看不懂。这对作者来说并不是恭维。看不懂的英文范文就是烂范文，虽然让人一看就懂的中式范文也未必值得一读。猫头鹰以中文支持英文的道理，尝试改用汉文写雅思大作文，【钱与幸福】的用意不光是搞笑而已。
练习翻译也能引导英文写作。中教有资格教英文作文，要不然中教就完全失去教学英文的地位。外教的母语专长，在口语单项尤其给力。阅读和听力最好的老师是自修，可以把中教外教个摆一边。写作是弱项，特别需要补习。就此而言，外教中教平分秋色，迷信外教显然是糊涂傻瓜，轻视中教更是不智之举。
>IELTS Essay Topic (雅思真题):
有些人认为个人的幸福和经济的成就二者是直接地息息相关，另外也有一些人认为幸福还得依赖其它的原因。申论两边的看法，并提出观点议论。
Some people think that personal happiness is directly related to economic success, while others believe that this depends on other factors. Discuss both sides and give your opinion. Give reasons for your answer and include any relevant examples from your own knowledge or experience.
》汉文白话雅思：写手(Jeenn Lee Hsieh) 分享“钱与幸福”原创。如果网友尚未浏览过8421English范文，则不妨先体会中文大意，然后才浏览英文原文。此举也许会别有一番意会在心头。初次练习作文的处女作，可以搞笑一次：用中文写。不必有第二次了，因为雅思是考你英文不是中文。
下文英汉对照，全部由猫头鹰自写自编自导自翻自唱自吹自擂自言自语。作者原稿是英文。中文译稿来自猫头鹰在线写作实验室ielts360toefl@hotmail.com 谢振礼老师免费答疑。
论说文力求主题有焦点，结构有组织，内容有组织。初次练写Essay，先确定主题(thesis)结构(structure)内容(content)，不妨刻意把英文占时摆在一边。长久之计是体验英文的应用--修辞(rhetoric)的效率，句法(syntax)的变化，词汇(lexicon)的恰当。猫头鹰在线写作实验室的努力方向还是强调英文的用语(language)，用句(sentence)，用字(words)。大凡考生比较拿手作文，笨手英文。
英文作文是英文(English)+作文(composition)。英文的应用输给老外学者，这也许今世注定，无需感叹，反正学多少算多少。作文的逻辑却是因人而异，中国考生在作文方面毫无逊色。所以当务之急是作文【起承转合】，一通百通之后，全心全力搞好英文。
雅思托福写作高分显然赢在英文，考试低分显然也同时输在作文。若是考前英文应用程度平平，可能在短时间内也难以大幅提升。此时若是再疏忽亲身磨练+体验作文的主题结构内容，可料到吃亏在眼前。
》猫头鹰汉文雅思：“经济成就与个人幸福”
(讽刺范文：谢振礼老师。作文讲义：主题+结构+内容)
主题：个人幸福=物质(钱买得到)+ 精神 (钱买不到)
结构：起--幸福=物质(成功)+精神(安慰)
承--物质(对幸福的重要)
转--精神(对幸福的重要)
合--物质+精神=幸福
内容：起(申论主题立场)+承(论证支持主题)+转(论证支持主题)+合(重申主题立场)
警告：在考场限时环境的压力之下，你只能用心图计划，不可能有时间打草稿。平常练习写作的时候，倒是不妨简单的作小大纲--起承转合。猫头鹰修改学员作文时，比较专注引言起段，因为有成功的开头才能发展为一篇成功的论说文。
