1、题目大意

媒体应该包括更多报道好消息。是否同意？

2、思路解析

这是一道观点类大作文，聊的是媒体是否应该报道更多积极内容。题目读起来不复杂，审题时注意两点，一是讨论对象“media”，需要考虑其特性；二是观点有比较关系“more”，在论证中需要体现。下面，月半鸭和大家一起来看下具体观点。

首先来看同意的角度，有两方面。

一是媒体一定程度上影响了人们对于周围情况的认知，更多的正面新闻能够提高人们的信心和幸福感。当人们接收到更多正向的信息后，他们对于生活会更加乐观，对周围人也更容易产生信任感。

二是减少负面新闻包括犯罪新闻的比例能够降低人们的焦虑和恐慌，同时还有望降低潜在的“模仿犯罪”行为。

再来看反对角度，同样有两点。

一是新闻媒体应该遵循客观公正的原则， 而不是被人为操纵。无论是正面还是负面的内容，新闻媒体都应该客观报道并展示大众。

二是公众有知情权，特别是当危机发生时，人们应当知道自己面临的困难和处境，而不是被虚假的歌舞升平所包围。

3、提纲

4、高分范文示例

The idea that the media should report on positive events more frequently has been brought forward by many individuals. Contrary to the opposing viewpoint, I hold a supportive position.

First and foremost, a greater proportion of encouraging media coverage can diminish the likelihood of "copycat” crimes and suicides. Constant crime cases, rather than events featuring good news, can occasionally give criminals a popularity and induce regular people to commit crimes they otherwise would not think of. Therefore, extensive and widely disseminated negative news reporting may result in a rise in crimes that are in similar manner. As a result, there is a pressing need for increased reporting that contains message of optimism due to the amplifying effect such messages have on the crime rate.

Even more importantly, sharing positive news boosts morale in the community. Undoubtedly, it is a credible reason that reports concerning crimes and accidents can remind people of the threats and so prevent them from being victimized. In contrast to how beautiful stories make people feel that they live in a society where justice, love, and equality are respected, this increases the likelihood that citizens will feel isolated from one another. In this manner, a strong faith in governments, authorities, and individuals in the surrounding area can be cultivated. For instance, more individuals might drop their guard against strangers and offer assistance, as opposed to regarding the difficulties of others as scams. Only with such faith can society remain functional and sustain a healthy way of life.

In conclusion, sufficient time and space should be reserved for positive news due to its positive impact on both the crime rate and social confidence.
