编者按：在四级写作中，很多时候我们都需要提到自己的观点，这时，同学们的头脑里估计会本能的蹦出 I think或者是 in my opinion之类的句式。如果这样的话，请对这些词说拜拜吧，因为，你已经不需要它们了。只要你愿意，你将学会以下其他表达方式：
1. I reckon, 用于阐述自己的观点，比 I think 更正式。
e.g. I reckon it will be much faster to get to London by train。
2. In my view,比 in my opinion更正式，经常用于讨论重要的事情。
e.g. In my view, they made a huge mistake in not selling the company when they had the chance。
3. It seems to me All things considered，皆可用于仔细思考问题或局势时。
e.g. (i) It seems to me that they are spending more money than they need to attract new talent into the company。
(ii) All things considered, I think we made a wise choice in recruiting James。
4. If you ask me，用于当你的观点于对方十分重要时;
e.g. If you ask me, she has spoilt her children far too much。
不过有时人们会在没被提问的情况下用到此句;
e.g. If you ask me,。. But I didnt ask you.!
5. To be honest To tell you the truth To be frank，皆用于知道对方可能不喜欢你的观点时。
e.g. (i) To tell you the truth, your father was right when he said that you undersold the company。
(ii) To be honest, I preferred it when you were blonde。
(iii) To be frank, I thought her acting was simply terrible。
6. Frankly speaking，更加直白的方式，用于熟悉的人。
e.g. (i) You would use this expression to give your opinion in a more familiar and forthright way。
(ii) Frankly speaking, I dont know what she sees in him。
7. Personally，这用于强调自己在阐述个人观点时。
e.g. (i) This is used to emphasize that you are giving your own opinion
(ii) Personally, I think the CEO should apologize for his appalling behavior at the shareholders meeting。
8. To my mind As far as Im concerned，皆可用于对方不同意你的观点时。
e.g. (i) To my mind, private education is better than state education。
(ii) As far as Im concerned, tennis is a much more interesting sport than football。
这样一来，除了I think 和in my opinion，你仍有N种方式可以用于陈述观点，何乐而不为呢?
