一作文開頭

1、Many people insist that...很多人(堅持)認為……

這句話乍看沒亮點，但將眾人皆知的"think"換為"insist"有沒有覺得高大上了許多？

2、With the development of science and technology, more and more people believe that...隨著科技的發展,越來越多的人認為……

3、A lot of people seem to think that...很多人似乎認為……

二.引出不同觀點的萬能模板

1、People"s views on... vary from person to person. Some hold that... . However, others believe that....人們對……的觀點因人而異。有些人認為.....然而其他人卻認為……

看這個長度就已然鶴立雞群。其實，也是一個蠻簡單也好記的模板。

2、Attitudes towards (drugs) vary from person to person. 人們對待吸毒的態度因人而異。

乍一看，跟上句的開頭神似，其實就是省略掉了"people"s"，不僅清爽而且好像高端了一些。

3、People may have different opinions on...人們對……可能會有不同的見解。

又是一個婉轉的句子，展示其客觀性。

4、There are different opinions among people as to...關於……人們的觀點大不相同。

"different"雖拉低了水準，但"as to"又拯救了回來。

5、Different people hold different attitudes toward (failure).對(失敗)人們的態度各不相同。

這句話貌似亮點不多，頂多一個"hold"，但也是安全牌，容易理解。
