独立写作(共18题)
NO.1
Do you agree or disagree with the following statement: The government must make choices about how to spend its money in amusing the people. Given the choice between spending tax dollars on the arts or sports, it should choose to spend those dollars on the arts.
对于体育的支持能够造福更多人。 Governmental support to sports benefits more people. |
|
reason: |
体育所有人都能看懂,但是欣赏艺术需要历史文化知识和对于艺术家的了解。 Enjoying sports requires little. In sharp contrast, to truly understand an artistic work requires not only historical and cultural knowledge but also the personal experience of the artist. |
example: |
拿Beijing Museum为例,很少有人经常去那。 Take Beijing Museum for example. Not many people frequent there to admire the masterpieces of artists - only those from the upper class or students and researchers with specific academic interests will regard these establishments valuable and useful. |
体育比艺术赚钱。 Athletics are more profitable than arts. |
|
reason: |
艺术市场比较小,体育市场每年却能产生数十亿的利润。 The art market is relatively small compared with the sports industry, which generates multibillion-dollar profits every year. |
example: |
拿鸟巢为例,鸟巢在奥运后举办了很多比赛,变成北京政府的一个财政来源。 For example, the National Stadium of China, more widely known as the Bird’s Nest, have held hundreds of huge events from world famous football games to the concerts of many established musicians after the 2008 Olympic Games. These events are an important source of government budget. |
NO.2
Drivers should pay for a permit, which allows them to drive rush hours, in order to solve the problem of traffic congestions.
司机有更好的驾驶体验。 As for drivers, the fee for permit would allow them to have a nice driving experience. |
|
reason: |
路上车辆减少,驾驶体验更好。 Asking drivers for money would limit the number of cars going out during rush hours. |
example: |
用一个调查证明观点。 According to a recent survey, the number of cars driving on main street in downtown area has dramatically dropped. The reason is that drivers are unwilling to pay for the permit, but would rather use public transportation, such as subway or bus. Based on their calculation, the monthly expense on subway would be even cheaper than the money for a permit. |
政府有更多钱改善路况。 As for the government, it would have funds to improve the road condition. |
|
reason: |
使用permit的收入去改善路况。 The government could use the money to maintain the road with poorer condition. |
example: |
比如修补路面,拓宽道路。 As to the roads with pits, the government would pay the workers to reconstruct the road. As to the roads that are too narrow to drive through, the government could expand the road with more lanes. |
NO.3
Some students prefer to have their final grades determined numerous small assignments, whereas others prefer to have their final grades determined by a few large ones. which do you prefer and why?
帮助老师改善教学方法。 Grading students’ performances based on many small assignments or projects can help teachers refine their methodologies. |
|
reason: |
老师可以根据学生在作业中的表现,来判断自己的教学方式是否有效。 Based on students’ performances on those small assignments, teachers can better determine whether their teaching methods are effective and which aspects of their teaching could be strengthened. |
example: |
一个学生在写作中华而不实的语言可以提醒一个文学老师如何教写作更有效。 A student’s bombastic wording can serve as a reminder for a literature teacher that his instructions on how to write a good sentence is inadequate while the guidance of how to observe carefully and think critically is more central to a compelling article. |
刺激学生努力学习。 Numerous small projects also serve as a stimulant for students to study hard. |
|
reason: |
压力是第一生产力。 With several deadlines looming in minds, students will feel more motivated to devote more time and energy to their studies. |
example: |
中国大学只通过期末考试来判断学生,所以很多中国大学生都在虚度自己的大学时光。 Most Chinese universities base their judgments of their students simply on the students’ performance in one single final examination. So, it is not surprising that many Chinese college students idle their precious college time away and end up gaining nothing. |
NO.4
Some companies provide important products or service, but also damage environment. Some people believe that the government should impose more penalty, higher tax and larger fine on these companies, while others believe there are better ways. Which do you prefer?
只有政府有资源和权利保证环保目标的实现。 Only the government possesses the power and resources required to achieve the purpose of environmental protection. |
|
reason: |
通过制定环保法律并实施,政府可以迫使公司减排。但是普通人没有这个权利和资源。 By making environmental laws and strictly enforcing such laws, the government can force those companies to control their emissions or effluents, thereby reducing the overall pollution of the environment. |
example: |
For example, by imposing penalty and larger fines, all the automobile companies are forced to install the devices to reduce polluting emissions. |
段间对比:没有比政府增加罚金或税收更好的办法。 There are no better means to reverse environmental pollution than to impose heavier taxes or penalties. |
|
reason: |
普通人没有权利,私人公司不会主动做出牺牲。 Individuals have neither the power nor the resources required to address these widespread hazards. Besides, private companies are driven by the desire for maximal profits, so they are not willing to make the short-term sacrifice necessary to accomplish this goal. |
example: |
科技早就可以彻底消除汽车的排放,但是直到政府加罚金,这些汽车公司才开始安装减排设备。 Return to the above-mentioned automobile companies. In fact, current technology has made possible the complete elimination of car emissions for decades. But not until the government levies heavier taxes do they equip their cars with such devices. |
NO.5
It was easier to be successful in the past than it is today.
The prevailing notions of equality and democracy in the modern society have made success more likely for people. |
|
reason: |
我们号召人人生而平等,所以没有人再去阻挠我们的成功。 Nowadays, all governments advocate everyone is born equal. So, there is no one to stop people with less privileged backgrounds from becoming successful. |
example: |
很多创业者都收到过来自大公司或者慈善家的帮助。 During the struggling courses of most world-renown entrepreneurs, for example Steve Jobs and Mark Zuckerberg, they all received great help from many established giants or generous philanthropists. |
The easy availability of information also helps people a lot on their way to success. |
|
reason: |
信息轻松获得,让那些有梦想的人更容易实现自己的目标。 Living in a world where knowledge can be acquired at the least cost, those with great ambitions and outstanding intelligence can achieve their life goals more easily. |
example: |
一个想成为社会学专家的人,只需打开电脑,轻击键盘,便能无成本获得所有的相关信息。 Let’s say that a person wants to become an expert in sociology. All that s/he needs to do to realize his/her ambition now is merely to unfold his/her laptop and input a few keywords. Then, s/he can get access to all the relevant information. |
NO.6
A big party inviting many people is better than a party inviting merely close friends and family members.
In a big party, it is hard for one to open up and really enjoy the party. |
|
reason: |
有陌生人在,我们很难放开自己,享受聚会。 Since the main goal of a party is to share happiness and have a good time together, one is supposed to feel relaxed in such circumstances. However, strangers just ruin such feelings. |
example: |
有陌生人在我们不敢放声大笑,分享八卦和隐私。 Could you imagine yourself laughing out loud in front of someone you first meet if you have bad teeth? Could you share details of your relationship with your boyfriend when a guy you are not familiar with is standing right beside you? |
Sometimes it will embarrass the guest that he is invited to a party held by someone he rarely knows. |
|
reason: |
被孤立的感觉非常不好。 It is not going to be a pleasant thing to see many guests sitting in the corner chatting cheerfully while I stand alone on the balcony with an uneasy looking on my face. |
example: |
个人经历作为证据。 Once, I was invited to the birthday party held by Bob, one of my brother’s classmates, who I had only met for twice and never actually talked with. When faced with a crowd of people I had never met before, I felt so nervous and did not know how to make contacts with them. I spent the rest time of the party hiding in the bathroom pathetically and wondered why on earth I decided to come. |
NO.7
The best way to improve the quality of education in a country is to increase teachers' salaries.
First of all, the increase of teachers’ income cannot ensure the improvement of their teaching. |
|
reason: |
有很多老师无法认识到自己的问题,或者不乐意做出改变。所以给钱并不能解决这些问题。 There are many teachers who fail to discover their shortcomings in teaching or who refuse to make the change even if they have been aware of their drawbacks. Simply giving them more money is not a solution to either of these problems. |
example: |
薪水不会把一个不耐心的老师变得有耐心,也不会让一个不合格的老师有足够的动力提高教学。 Even if with a higher pay, an impatient teacher will still be impatient when his students ask some questions that he believes he has already answered. Or, an incompetent teacher still finds himself unmotivated to improve his teaching methods or to expand his knowledge just to present a more instructive class. |
Increasing teachers’ salaries will bring the government serious financial problems. |
|
reason: |
更高的工资吸引更多的人当老师,给政府巨大的经济负担。 Higher salaries make the teaching profession more attractive, and thus more and more people will choose to pursue careers in teaching. So, the government will be faced with much more pressure of its budgets. |
example: |
中国政府双倍了老师的工资,导致没有钱去建造更多的学校,更新学校设备。 The Chinese government has doubled teachers’ salary during the past decade, which leaves the government less money to be spent on things that are more effective and urgent, such as building more schools for the poor and updating school facilities. |
NO.8
Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? If people are on vacation (holiday), they should leave their mobile phones at home.
Cell phones disconnect people from the beautiful scenery on the road. |
|
reason: |
手机分散人们的注意力,让人们很难专注欣赏沿途的风景。 Cell phones, which were originally designed to broaden people’s minds, have in fact disconnected people from the surrounding environment. With cell phones at hand, they can hardly move their eyes away from the phone screen and therefore pay even less attention to the beautiful surroundings. |
example: |
上个暑假,我去台湾旅行。在途中,我一直在更新的朋友圈,根本就没有看沿途美丽的海景。 Last summer, I journeyed to Taiwan, a beautiful island off the Southeastern coast of China. During the trip, I was busy with refreshing my friends’ Facebook pages or Twitter feeds, totally ignoring the beautiful seascape along the way. |
With cell phones, the boss can easily track people down, making it hard for people to enjoy their tours. |
|
reason: |
工作邮件直接发送到手机,导致我们无法轻松享受假期。 Work e-mails will be sent to people right through their cell phones and the boss can demand their services whenever an emergency at work happens. With those piles of unfinished work assignments looming on their minds, even vacations can be turned into torture. |
example: |
没有把手机放在家,John在旅行中不停的给重要客户打电话,回复老板邮件,根本无法放松。 Without leaving his cell phone at home, John, even on a trip, was forced to reply the messages and e-mails of his clients and his boss immediately, just to win those million-dollar contracts and maintain his good relationships with his clients. |
