如果分论点只能想起2个，想不起第三个分论点时，可以有两种方法：
1. 主体段落用对比(contrast)可以使段落长一些，有可能4段就凑够400字。
2. 第四段主体段落使用驳斥（rebutting）反方观点的技巧，可以凑够5段。
看以下几篇范文，总结一下：

As a major of English language and literature, you may have developed some interest in literature, such as reading movies. At the same time, movies, which are based on literary works, are also very popular among students. Suppose you can choose to read the novel or watch the movie about a story you have never heard of, which one do you prefer. Write an article of about 400 words to explain your reasons. You should supply a title for your article.
reaction to a book or an articleReading a Novel or Watching a Movie
Reading novels used to be a major entertainment for people in the 19th century and before.
But since the invention of films at the end of the 19th century, people have gradually abandoned the novels for movies to enjoy new stories. Nowadays novel readers are on the decline. However, if I were to make a choice between reading a novel and watching a movie for a story I have never heard of, I would still prefer the former.

看Movie的弊端与读novel优势的对比
The first reason to account for my preference of the novel is that I can get the real story. As we know, a movie usually lasts for about two hours, and in order to finish the story in such a time limit, the director has to adapt it, telling only the important part and leaving out much that he thinks as trivial. So what you watch in a movie is in fact a partial story. But if you read a novel, you can get every words, and this can promise a more complete understanding of the story. Besides, a movie is the director’s version of the story, because the director will color the story with his own understanding, and sometimes, there may be even adaptation or distortion. In my English literature class, we used to compare the movie
of A Passage to India with the novel, and found as many as twenty-six changes; some of them are clear distortions by the director.
The second reason is that I can get more enjoyment from reading a novel. When watching a movie, the story comes in the form of real pictures and sounds. Although it is concrete, it is fixed and allows no more interpretation. But when reading a novel, what I get is language, which I can easily turn into varied mental images, and thus appreciate it to a higher degree. For example, when the story describes a beautiful scene, I can draw it in my mind by many different ways, and each mental picture can give me a different enjoyment. But in movies, there is only one version, so the pleasure is definitely decreased.
Another equally essential reason is that reading novels can help me with my language study. Although watching movies can improve my listening ability, reading novels can provide me with more comprehensive language training. For example, I can learn more new words, and new sentence patterns. I can learn new ways to try in my writing. Besides, reading novels takes much more time than watching a movie, and eve if the information input is the same, a longer process can definitely help me more.
To summarize, I prefer reading a novel to watching a movie because I can get a more real story, more enjoyment, and more language practice. These benefits can be very important for us English majors. I suggest teachers making a better booklist for students in the future, to cultivate in them good reading habits so that they can get more from their four-year stay on campus. (501 words)

Internet and the Modern Society
Recently the influence of Internet has attracted much public attention. People worry about t
he time wasted on it, the damage caused by virus spread on it, and most of all, some violent crimes committed due to the violent games played on it. All these concerns may be reasonable. But if we take a broader perspective, we may find that Internet has had many positive impacts on the modern society.

Internet出现之前与出现之后的对比
First of all, Internet has made the access to information more convenient. In the past, people could get information they wanted through only limited channels, such as newspaper, radio, and television. This means that only a certain amount of people could get the information at a certain time and in a certain place. But now with the help of Internet, people can get information no matter when they want. As a researcher has pointed out, information explosion means that people live in the ocean of information, and Internet has been essential to make that true.
