The Best Way to School
I get to school on foot every day. I think it is the best way and I have several reasons for that.
First, my home is two kilometers away from school. It takes me about 20 minutes to get there. Second, walking to school is a kind of exercise. What’s more, it’s pretty safe to walk to school because there are a lot of cars on the road at this time of day. So I like going to school on foot. It’s really a good choice.
总起说明自己最喜欢的上学方式，话锋一转，用“I have some reasons for that .”自然的引出自己选择走路上学的理由。

最后用It’s really a good choice.再次表明自己的看法，前后呼应。
The Best Way to School
Different students like different ways to get to school. For me, the best way is to walk to school.
I live about two kilometers from school. I prefer to walk to school, though my home is not close to my school and it often takes me more than fifteen minutes. I think that must be a lot safer than others. Besides, it is a kind of good exercise which is good for my health.
Reading is to the mind while exercise to the body. Walking makes me healthy and relaxed. I feel energetic after getting to school every day.
全文思路清晰，切入点独特，能从不同人的角度分析上学的方式。开头简明扼要的道出自己喜欢的上学方式，立场鲜明。
though引导的让步状语从句表达自己对走路上学的喜爱。全文使用“though, besides, after”等连词使行文连贯，还巧妙地使用“It’s a kind of good exercise which is…”等句式使文章的语言丰富，有质感。
引用了Extensive languages中的名言“Reading is to the mind while exercise to the body.”，语句活泼流利，用词精当，道出自己选择走路上学的感受和好处。
The Best Way to School
Every school day, we go to school for studying, so it is important for us to choose the best way to go to school. Some students walk to school because they live near the school. Others go to school by bike or by bus because their home is far from their school. As for me, I prefer to walk to school though I live a little far from school. By walking, I can do some exercise and make myself stronger and healthier. It’s much safer than riding a bike. Maybe we can also take a bus or take the subway. But if so, we have to stand in a big crowd! Peace all year round.?Walking to school makes me feel safe and very happy. It is the best way to school.
文章关注生活实际，从不同的学生角度进行分析，表明不同的人选择不同的到校方式。并能表明自己的立场。
使用“ as for me, because, though…”等连词使文章衔接连贯自然，同时又使用“Some…others…, it’s…, Maybe we can…, But if so ”等句式使文章语言丰富流畅，亮点突出。
引用了Extensive languages中的名言“Peace all year round.”表明安全的重要性，整篇文章读来生动亲切，具有说服力和感染力。
本文思路清晰，结构完整，内容简明扼要。
