5. What can we do to help people in the disaster-stricken area?

汶川地震給每個人都留下沉痛的回憶，災后重建需要長期的大量的工作。我們能做的也許微乎其微，但萬眾一心，眾志成城，定能幫助災區中的人們擺脫生活和心理上的陰霾。

Candidate 1: On May 12th 2008, a destructive earthquake befell Sichuan province, and the whole China was in a panic at that time. We not only worried about if the people could withstand the disaster, but also cared about what to do to help people in the disaster-stricken area.

Different forms of rescue activities were launched everywhere. Some people donated their blood to the injured; others sent their clothes and living stuffs to the victims in Sichuan; lots of volunteers went to the earthquake-stricken area to help the survivors; the rich offered financial support for the rebuilding of schools in Sichuan. As long as we make joint efforts to help the people in disaster-stricken areas, what we do could be much valuable.

Candidate 2: Firstly, we should follow with the situation in the disaster-stricken area. Only by knowing the current state can we offer the most appropriate aid. Secondly, we can donate money, clothes or other materials that people are short of. Thirdly, if they have to move to other areas to get further treatment or continue their study, we should try our best to do them a favor, helping alleviate their suffering and adjust themselves to the new environment. Being students, though we have no chance to get access to the disaster-stricken area, there are still other means available. Last but not least, we can correspond with our peers who have survived in the disaster but lost their beloved families. We can comfort them sincerely and stir them to conquer the nightmare and bounce back. Let them believe that where there is love, there is a brilliant future.

回答中透露出答題者對地震災區深深的關愛，他們都不約而同地提到了捐款、捐物、獻血等等，特別是Candidate 2提出從心靈上給予那些在地震中受到傷害的同學以幫助，例如和災區同學結成伙伴，使他們盡早擺脫孤獨感和心理傷害。對于學生而言，這無疑是一種力所能及而且切實可行的辦法。從構思看，答題者都能準確運用關聯詞，一氣呵成，重點突出。
