写作中确定了topic和task后，你就要构思作文的具体内容。
我们先来看一下与前两章相同的例子：
The crime rate among teenagers has increased dramatically in many countries.
Discuss some possible reasons for this increase and suggest solutions.
构思是写作的重要部分。
想要在写作中拿高分，仅仅列出自己的观点是不够的，还要给出充分的解释。
Developing Focus Questions
这一题要你阐述青少年犯罪率上升的原因和解决方法。
你可以根据题目要求联想到几个focus questions，这对你的写作有很大帮助。
以下是这一题的focus questions:
Focus question 1: Why has teenage crime increased?
Focus question 2: What can be done about it?
对于这几个问题，你要给出自己的答案：
Why has teenage crime increased?
? Breakdown in the nuclear family(Nuclear family is a term used to define a family group consisting of a pair of adults and their children, as opposed to single-parent families.)
? Lack of things to do
What can be done about it?
? Government - Provide better support for families & stricter punishments
? Individuals – take responsibility
Extending and Supporting your Ideas
对于以上的问题，你要怎样阐述?
你可以就以上几点再问自己几个问题，如：
Why has there been a breakdown in the nuclear family?
What is the effect of this?
What is a good example of it?
回答了这几个问题，你的观点就完整了：
For example:
Why has there been a breakdown in the nuclear family?
- high divorce rates
What is the effect of this?
- no male role model; boys go astray & may commit crime
Planning
以上的内容就是你的作文的主要部分。
下面就是作文的结构：
Essay Plan

What can be done about it?
1) Govt - Provide better support for families

2) Parents – take responsibility
- provide loving environment, relative as role model
