　　PartIWriting

　　文章一开始就提到目前中国现代化建设的目标之一，就是构建和谐社会。

一时之间，构建社会成为中国发展的趋势。

　　第二段从六个方面讲述了和谐社会的内涵：

1）民主政治，保证人们的最大利益;

2）公平正义，保证每个公民的权利;

3）诚信友好，为生活和生产提供良好环境;

4）充满活力，确保社会的创造力;

5）稳定有序，保证生活平稳安定;

6）人与自然和谐相处，实现经济可持续性发展。

　　第三段从自身出发，讨论在构建和谐社会时自己该如何做。

作为一名学生，作者认为：

和周围人发展友好关系，乐于助人，传播“和谐社会”的意识，为这个宏伟目标奠定基础。

　　【高分妙招】

　　六级作文很贴近国家大事，因为对时事政治的了解是对当代大学生的要求之一。

出现一个新的命题，考生应多关注其内涵及相关评论，这样写作过程中才能做到“胸有成竹”，写出来的作文才“言之有物”。
