　　写作范文

　　* 选项1和选项2的优势在于，让异乡同家乡无差异，因为无差异所以不想家。

　　对应而言，选项3和选项4的(对应)劣势在于，让异乡与家乡的差异可能很明显，差异使人想家。

　　* 于是，对于抛弃选项3和选项4的讨论可以仅仅从这个关键劣势(the key and shared disadvantage)着手，而不一定再写别的理由。

　　再于是，题目就被简化成“三选一”了。

　　* 然后，选项1优于选项2的点在于，activities和foods更现实 (They are present, practical, and tangible.)，而家乡的朋友可能还是很“远”(They are still physically distant.)。

　　首先，针对选项3和选项4的让步：One might make new friends to seek company, and the one might also try the local activities to adapt to the local community. Both ways are to make the one less of a stranger in the new place. 然后转折提出关键劣势： However, either way would create a strong sense of displacement because of the likely stark differences between the new place and home, which become increasingly perceptible as the one meets more and more new people and tries more and more activities and foods. 至此，迅速抛弃选项3和选项4。如果有必要，可以举例子：blah blah blah blah blah blah.

　　另起一段，先讨论选项1和选项2的优势(别贪恋篇幅)： blah blah blah blah blah blah. 然后,讨论选项1优于选项2的点(讨论的重点)： blah blah blah blah blah blah. 于是，就是典型的两者对比：“二选一”。
