范文学习-组合提问

这种题目也被称为two-part questions，顾名思义，题目会问两个问题。通常情况下，我们建议大家写四段，一个开头，一个结尾，中间两段分别回答两个问题。这种题目大家常犯的错误是对于第二个问题回应的过少，实际上第二个问题比第一个往往更重要。

These days more fathers stay at home and take care of their children while mothers go out to work. What could be the reasons for this? Do you think it is a positive or a negative development?

It is true that men are increasingly likely to take on the role of househusband, while more women than ever are the breadwinners in their families. There could be several reasonsfor this, and I consider it to be a very positive trend.

In recent years, parents have had to adapt to various changes in our societies. Equal rights movements have made great progress,and it has become normal for women to gain qualifications and pursue a career. It has also become socially acceptable for men to stay at home and look after their children. At the same time, the rising cost of living has meant that both marriage partners usually need to work and save money before starting a family. Therefore, when couples have children, they may decide who works and who stays at home depending on the personal preference of each partner, or based on which partner earns the most money.

In my view, the changes described above should be seen as progress. We should be happy to live in a society in which men and women have equal opportunities, and in which women are not put under pressure to sacrifice their careers.Equally, it seems only fair that men should be free to leave their jobs in order to assume childcare responsibilities if this is what they wish to do. Couples should be left to make their own decisions about which parental role each partner takes,according to their particular circumstances and needs.

In conclusion,the changing roles of men and women in the family are a result of wider changes in society, and I believe that these developments are desirable. (274 words, band 9)
