Say No to Pirated Products
As is known to all, piracy has become a more and more serious problem, which hinders our economic development. In many computers, we can find pirated Microsoft “Windows” software. In many DVD stores, we can see pirated products.
Why is there piracy? As far as I know, there are two reasons. To begin with, pirated products are much cheaper than legal ones. Take “Windows” as an example. The legal “Windows” software costs us thousands of yuan, while a pirated one costs only 5 yuan. What’s more, people don’t realize the harms of buying pirated products. When it comes to the harms of piracy, we can cite a lot. In the first place, producing pirated products is similar to “theft”, which is illegal. In the second place, companies will be unwilling to create good products unless their intellectual property rights are well protected.
Serious as the problem seems, we can come up with some measures to deal with it. First of all, the government must make stricter laws to prevent people from producing pirated products. Then as consumers, we should be lawful citizens and refrain from buying them. Only through these measures can we hope to solve the problem. (198 words)
（评：本文是一篇非常典型的传统题型的文章：问题——解决型。它的典型展开方式为：问题是什么，原因，和解决办法。相信上过文都作文辅导班的同学做这篇文章应该是非常容易得到高分的，因为结构很清楚。第一段的第一句话给出文章主题，然后用两个例子加以佐证。第二段有两项内容：原因和危害。所以分别给出主题句，并且每项内容给两个一级扩展句，下面还可以给若干二级扩展句。第三段同样在主题句后有两点展开，最后一句话做出总结。另外这篇文章有一半左右的句子或表达是我们在考前的范文中反复操练的，相信一定可以帮助同学们在这篇作文中取得好成绩。）
