【观点类】
Nowadays people are more willing to help the people they do not know (for example, giving clothing and food to the people who need them) than people were in the past. 现在,人们对比过去更愿意帮助别人,你在多大程度上支持或反对这个观点?
【写作立场】
我认为,现代人比过去人更加愿意帮助别人。
【背景介绍】
助人为乐一直被视为是一种传统美德。
【思路拓展】
➊ 为何现代人对比过去更加愿意帮助别人
➀ 客观而言,现在社会,人们帮助有困难的人拥有更多的条件。换言之,过去人们的可以支配收入有限,当朋友升学或者治病需要经济援助的时候,人们常常是心有余而力不足。但是,现在,经济的发展使得个人收入增加,当朋友们遇到一些经济上的困难的时候,人们有条件伸出援助之手。
➁ 舆论的宣传也起到了一定的作用,很多新闻报道中,帮助别人的行为被赞美,这些对于年轻人有潜移默化的影响,他们会效仿媒体中的榜样去在别人遇到困难的时候提供帮助。例如,《感动中国》的节目就很有影响力,里面宣传的多是励志的助人故事,这对于激励现代人的助人行为是有积极影响的。
➂ 现代年轻人接受了更好的教育,父母和教育者都会教他们行为规范、明辨是非、尤其是在别人遇到困难的时候奉献自己的爱心。例如,我的小侄子知道用小手帮助妈妈从早市回来的时候拉箱子,这些和父母的教育是分不开的。
