參考範文
When it comes to what makes me most proud of Taiwan, two remarkable aspects immediately come to mind: our people's unparalleled hospitality and the world-renowned National Health Insurance (NHI) system. First and foremost, Taiwanese people are famous for their welcoming nature. Whenever foreign tourists get lost, locals always go out of their way to lend a helping hand, making visitors feel right at home. Furthermore, our NHI system is a true medical miracle. It guarantees that everyone, regardless of their financial status, can receive affordable and high-quality medical care. These two features flawlessly demonstrate both the warmth of our culture and the advancement of our society, filling my heart with immense pride. As for how to market these outstanding Taiwanese features to the world, I believe that utilizing the power of social media and personal communication is the most effective approach. I plan to shoot engaging English vlogs documenting the friendly interactions between tourists and locals in Taiwan, and then upload them to platforms like YouTube or Instagram. Regarding the NHI system, I can share our successful experiences with foreign students during international cultural exchange programs. By actively spreading the word, I am confident that more people around the globe will recognize and fall in love with the beauty of Taiwan.
寫作技巧解析
根據 108 年作文考題,主題為「臺灣最讓我感到驕傲的面向與行銷方式」。題目要求分為兩段:
這題屬於 「說明文(條列特色)+具體對策與行動」 的結構,強烈建議採用以下安排:
明確破題:
直接點出你心目中最驕傲的兩項臺灣特色。強烈建議選擇 「一軟一硬」 或 「一人一物」
(例如:臺灣人的熱情好客+全民健保制度),這樣文章的廣度會很足夠。
特色 A 與原因:
描述臺灣人的「熱情(hospitality)」,解釋這如何讓外國遊客感到賓至如歸,展現了文化的溫度。
特色 B 與原因:
描述「全民健保(the NHI system)」,解釋這項制度如何保障所有人都能獲得平價且高品質的醫療,展現了社會的進步與安定。
具體對策設定(得分關鍵):
不能只寫「我會告訴外國人」,這太空泛。必須提出 具體的行銷管道與行動。
對策 A(針對熱情):
透過「社群媒體(social media)」,拍攝英文 Vlog 或短影音,紀錄遊客與當地人的友善互動,上傳至 YouTube 或 Instagram 以吸引國際目光。
對策 B(針對健保制度):
透過「國際文化交流計畫(international exchange programs)」,在與外國學生交流或論壇時,主動分享臺灣成功的醫療模式,以此提升臺灣的國際知名度。
