　　开头方法二、 可以适当的复述一下题目，然后稍作让步，再表达自己的观点和立场“Work greatly influences people’s personal lives-their special interests， their leisure activities， even their appearance way from the work place.”

　　The speaker claims that our jobs greatly influence our personal interests， recreational activities and even appearance. While I agree that the personal lives of some people are largely determined by their work， in my view it would be a mistake to draw this conclusion generally. In my observation， the extent to which occupation influences personal life depends on the nature of the work， and how central the work is to one’s sense of self.

　　开头方法四、可以先表明自己的立场，再阐述原因Businesses are as likely as are governments to establish large bureaucracies， but bureaucracy is far more damaging to a business than it is to a government.

　　Contrary to the statement’s premise， my view is that businesses are less likely than government to establish large bureaucracies， because businesses know that they are more vulnerable than government to damage resulting from bureaucratic inefficiencies. My position is well supported by common sense and by observation.
