There is an old saying that two heads are better than one, which suggests that the majority’s collective wisdom always dwarfs that of the minority, let alone any individual. There are people who believe that for a society to cohere there must be a strong consensus as well as unity and discipline. Therefore we must not overemphasize the importance of critical thinking which is abound to result in confusion and quarrels.
有句老话说，三个臭皮匠，胜过一个诸葛亮，这表明大多数人的集体智慧总是使少数人的智慧相形见绌，更何况平常人。人们相信一个社会凝聚起来必须有很强的共识，以及团结和有纪律。因此我们不能过分强调批判性思维的重要性，这必然会导致混乱和争吵。
But I don’t agree with this. First, I have no respect for majority’s wisdom. I believe that most people do not usually use their heads, they are also lack of creativity, and therefore are ignorant and prejudiced and often become mobs and stampede easily. Second, anyone who has the creativity will have an important impact on our society. But their wisdom is usually different from the majority’s.
但我不同意这一点。第一，我不尊重多数人的智慧。我相信大多数人通常不用他们的头脑，而且也缺乏创造力，因此是无知有偏见的，这往往容易成为暴徒和踩踏。第二，任何有创造力的人都会对我们的社会产生重要的影响，但他们的智慧通常不同于大多数人的。
In a word, everything has two sides. What’s more important is that to learn knowledge from different kinds of wisdom and to improve our ability.
总之任何事物都有两面性，最重要的是，要从各种智慧中学到知识，提高自己的能力。
高二英语作文的高分秘诀：如何利用细节思维
试看这样一个题目：The best way to improve public health is by increasing the number of sports facilities. To what extent do you agree or disagree?
如果要写一段开头，中文思路大致如下：
人人都想健康，但是，问题的关键是要找到保持健康的最佳方式。对此不同的人提出不同的看法，其中一个看法就是增加体育器材的数量。
大部分同学写出所对应的'英文短文应该类似于以下的版本。
常规英文版本：
Everyone wants to be healthy. But the key issue is to find out the best way to keep healthy. As for this question, different people have put forward different opinions. One of them is increasing the number of sports facilities.
我们可利用细节思维来重新改写这段话。于是，我们就可以写成以下的版本。
细节英文版本：
Being both physically and psychologically healthy is a common wish shared by almost every one. But the core of the matter is to find out the optimum approach to stay sound both in body and mind. When it comes to this issue, different voices can be heard everywhere, one of which claims that the more sports facilities the general public can get access to, the stronger they can be .
具体分析：
人人都想健康。“健康”是个概括性的词，我们可以稍微细化分类：身体健康还是心理健康，抑或两个都健康?另外，细节思维显得更客观，毫无疑问，以人开头，似乎有点主观，那就转换思维，将健康放在开头。如：
Being both phsically and psychologically health is a common wish shared by almost every one.
第二句话，再次出现“保持健康”，换词后如下：
But the core of the matter is to find out the optimum approach to stay sound both in body and mind.
"不同的人"换用“不同的声音”来表达，更细化、更客观;“公众可用的体育器材越多，他们就越强壮”比“通过增加体育器材的数量来保持健康”更为细化。如：
When it comes to this issue,different voices can be heard everywhere, one of which claims that the more sports facilities the general public can get access to, the stronger they can be.
当然，细节版本还在句型的多样化方面优于常规版本。
通过以上分析，我们不难看出，用细节思维写出的文章，更符合英语习惯，更有英文的味道。同学们要想写好英语作问，首先得学会转换思维，也就是要清楚英文用词更细化;其次意思表达要开门见山，不兜圈子;最后要注意重要信息通常前置，无生命词作主语。

高中英语语法-英语说明文的写作方法（一）之二
英语说明文的写作方法（一）之二
ay，the first paragraph sets up the topic focus（主题所在）Next，the sentences in the body of a paragraph develop the topic sentence. Similarly，the body of an essay consists of a number of paragraphs that discuss and support the ideas given in the introductory（引导的）paragraph. Finally，a concluding sentence（结束句）——whether a restatement，conclusion，or observation——ends the paragraph. The essay，too，has a concluding paragraph which ends the essay logically and satisfactorily. Although there are some exceptions（例外），most well written expository（说明文的）paragraphs and essays are similar in structure.
可以看出，在比较相同点的时候，常用到similarly，also，too，in the same case，in spite of the difference等这样的词语。
European Football and American Football
Although European football is the parent of American football，the two games show several major differences. European football，sometimes called association football or soccer，is played in 80 countries，making it the most widely played sport in the world. American football，on the other hand，is popular only in North America（the United States and Canada）.Soccer is played by eleven players with a round ball. Football，also played by eleven players in somewhat different positions（位置）on the field，is played with an elongated（拉长的）round ball. Soccer has little body contact（接触）between players and therefore needs no special protective equipment. Football，in which players make the greatest use of body contact to stop a running ball-carrier and his teammates，needs special protective equipment. In soccer，the ball is advanced toward the goal by kicking it or by butting（顶）it with the head. In American football，on the other hand，the ball is passed from hand to hand or carried in the hands across the opponent's（对手）goal. These are just a few of the features which distinguish（区别）association and American football.
这是一篇用比较不同点的手法写的说明文。从文章中可以看出：however，on the other hand，in contrast，but，nevertheless等表示转折的词语常用来引导对不同点的比较。[1][2]
