　　综合写作：古埃及金字塔内有shaft，考古学家提出了三种purpose

　　经典Task2 Paired-choice Agreement/Disagreement同意与否观点阐述类题目，只需阐明观点同意与否，并给出合理解释即可。此题无论同意与否, 只要给出合理的解释即可，可采用推理与事实论证的方法进行细节扩充。

　　④ A way to set up self-confidence.

　　2、 Disagreement:

　　② A waste of money if the changed appearance does not lead to good results.

　　③ People will be addicted if they do once or twice, even more (e.g. Michael Jackson)

　　④ It is not the real beauty.
