В данной статье рассмотрим пример сочинения по английскому языку ЕГЭ, в котором особое внимание нужно уделить выбору противоположного мнения. Оно подразумевается, но не уточняется в вопросе.
Вопрос. A person can have only one true friend. Do you agree or disagree?
Следует отметить, что данная тема эссе не из лёгких.
Выбор противоположного мнения
Здесь возможны два противоположных мнения: 1) a person can have many true friends; 2) a person can have several true friends.
Если в сочинении будет защищаться утверждение из вопроса, то выбор варианта противоположного мнения не имеет большого значения. Напротив, если школьник не согласен с высказыванием, то рекомендуется подумать, какое из предложенных противоположных мнений проще защитить.
Важно!
Во-первых, рекомендуем во введении дать определение фразы “true friend” , объяснить, значение данной фразы. В этом случае сочинение будет более целостным и более понятным.
Во-вторых, также во введении следует уточнить, о чем конкретно будет эссе – об одном настоящем друге на протяжении всей жизни? об одном настоящем друге у школьника?

Пример сочинения-эссе
True friends are helpful and reliable, sincere and honest. How many true friends can individuals have during their life? Some people believe that a person can have only one close friend, others think that a person can have several true friends.
I belong to the second group. The main reason is that people make new friends at school, at work and in clubs. As a result, they have several close friends. Whilst at school, friends encourage and support each other, but they often do not see each other outside school hours. When they attend clubs, children make new close friends with those they share the same interests. In addition, children develop true friendships with their neighbors. Finally,when children grow older and become adults they acquire new close friends at university and at work.
On the other hand, there are people who do not share this opinion. They argue that people do not feel safe when many friends learn their secrets and they can trust only one person. I do not agree with that. From my point of view, real friends are trustworthy and reliable and they always keep their friends’ secrets.
To conclude, I totally agree with those who think that people can have several real friends. In the childhood they make close friends at school, in clubs and in the neighborhood. When they become adults, they also develop true friendships with their fellow students and colleagues.
