3------Topic :Best Ideas

Present your perspective on the issue below, using relevant reasons and/or examples to support your views.
"The best ideas arise from a passionate interest in commonplace things."

SAMPLE-1 (score 6)
由题目关键词引出话题 Even the most brilliant thinkers, from Socrates to Sartre , live lives in time. A childhood, an adolescence, an adulthood; these arecommon to me and you as well as the greatest writers. （抓住关键词common）。从普通人到大人物，一般到特殊递进Furthermore, many of the great thinkers we esteem in our Western culture （语言北美化） lived somewhat uneventful lives. What distinguished their life from say a common laborer was their work..反问引出论据Therefore, what provided  the grist for their work? One might say that they were brilliant and this alone was sufficient to distinguish their lives from the masses. Intellect alone can not devise situations or thoughts from no where; there must be a basis and that basis is most common, 让步ifnot always, observation of the common, of the quotidian. Critics of this idea may argue that these thinkers were products of fine educations and were well schooled in the classics. This, they may point to, is the real basis for their knowledge.分析提出论点I would agree that although it may be a benefit to study classics and be well schooled in diverse disciplines, these pursuits merely refine and hone an ability each and every person has, the ability to study human nature. Where best to study human nature than in the day to day routine each one of us can witness in him or herself or those around us.本段由题目引出论据最后作者提出观点。论据是递进关系，由一般到特殊。让步句 使论据更有说服力

(最好的方式理解关键词commonplace引出分论点philosophy and literature)  I propose that the two best disciplines to understand this power of the commonplace and its ability to cause a groundswell of thought are philosophy and literature.  (先讲philosophy ) Every school of philosophy, from the Greeks to our day, share a common mission or intent and that is to understand and explain human existence, with all of its concomitant features. Generally speaking, （古今对比） the Greek philosophers, epitomized in Aristotle, attempted to set down rules for human behavior founded on logic. These rules applied not only to the rare forms of human behavior but largely focused on the more mundane motions of daily life. Many of Aristotle's rules were based on his observations of others as well as himself. Contrast this venture with the existentialists of our century who attempted to look behind the real motivations of human behavior as well understand man's relation to the Universe.由问题反问，提出哲学家怎么做的To do this, what did these philosophers do? They studied those around them; they submerged themselves in the commonplace, in cities with hordes of anonymous people. While the existentialists, as well those philosophers before, exploited their uncommon education and intellect, the basis for their movement was ordinary human behavior and existence.哲学也来源于生活 来源于人类的活动和存在

(后讲literature )  Finally, literature is similar to philosophy in that it seeks to explain and understand human behavior and therefore rooted in the commonplace. 转折，又有不同的地方Nevertheless, its relative strength over philosophy is literature's ability to emotionally and spiritually move the reader through the use of contrived situations and fictional characters. It can do this when even the central theme of a piece maybe love between a man and a woman (e.g.commonplace). Literature also distinguishes itself from philosophy in that the breadth of the fiction may be huge. The plot and the detail can be quite ordinary or fantastic.话题又转回来However, this does not mean that the central themes of all literature, whether ordinary or fantastic, deal with human beings and the problems they find in the world, something which we all share.说文学也是和人的平常生活息息相关的

结论In conclusion, I hope it has been shown that a passionate desire to understand and explain human behavior, the significance of our existence and deal constructively with the challenges of life are the centerpieces of at least in two of the most influential areas in human thought. What is more commonplace than the existence of man.  总结。用另外表述说philosophy 和 literature，表明人的活动和人类的存在都是平常的

Nothing is impossible!
