雅思写作真题及高分范文 2

2009年2月21日Somepeoplethinkthatenvironmentalproblemsaretoobigforindividualstodealwith.Others,however,thinkthateachindividualshouldtakesomeactions.Discussbothviewsandgiveyourownopinion.考题分析：本题是一道典型的雅思环境类写作考题。在历届雅思写作环境类话题中，出题思路主要有以下三个方面：1.环境保护是谁的责任？考题给出的选项通常会有个人、公司、国家、国际合作等（例如04年5月15日，0-7年2月3日考题）。2.如何保护环境？考题通常会给出某个方案问其正确与否（如06年6月17日，08年6月14日考题）。3.为什么人们明知环境正在被破坏却无动于衷例？（如08年9月13日A类议论文）如果考前对以上三方面的雅思写作真题都思考过，相信本题一定会变的很简单，实际上只要把一些理由进行组合就可以了。由于考题的提问形式是“Discussbothviewsandgiveyourownopinion.”所以，既要讨论到个人能够采取何种行动解决一些环境问题，也要讨论为什么有些环境问题个人无法解决（即只有政府或公司才能解决）。SampleAnswer:Itistruethatourtinyindividualactionsoftenseeminsignificantcomparedtothescaleandcomplexityofglobalenvironmentalproblemssuchaspollution,deforestationanddepletionofnaturalresources.Butthatdoesnotrelieveourdutyasindividualstodoasmuchaswecantodealwiththeseproblems.Individualactions,smallastheymaybe,canprovemoreeffectivethanwerealize.Wecanavoiddrivingthecar,andtakepublictransit,walk,orbicycleinstead.Thiswillreducetheuseoffossilfuelsandcutpollution.Savingenergyathome,liketurningontheairconditioneronlywhenwehaveto,orturningwaterheaterdownafewdegrees,isalsoultimatelygoodfortheenvironment.Individualactionscanalsoturnintounitedpowerswhen,forexample,thewholeneighborhoodismobilizedtoparticipateinalocalcampaigntoopposeenvironmentallydamagingpolicies.Thereare,however,obstaclesthatstandinthewayofindividualactiontowardsenvironmentalconservation.Thefirstobstacleisthelackofprofessionalknowledgeneededtocopewithseriousenvironmentalissueslikesoilerosionandsalinity,whichrequireasignificantamountofinvestigationandresearch.Anotherobstaclewhichmakesindividualactionalmostimpossibleiswhenanenvironmentalemergencyoraccidenthappens,e.g.anoilspillnearthebordderline,whichwouldnecessitategovernmentinterventionoreveninternationalcoordination.So,inconclusion,whenitcomestoenvironmentalproblems,individualactionsareindispensableintheproblemsolvingprocess.Butthemostpressingandcomplicatedproblemsgofarbeyondanindividual’scapabilityandsorequiretheconcertedeffortofthegovernmentaswellastheglobalcommunity.271words2009年2月28日Somepeoplebelievethatimprovepublichealthshouldincreasethenumberofsportsfacilities;othersbelievethatithaslittleeffectsandneedothermeasurestoimproveit.Discussbothviewsandgiveyouropinion.考题分析：本题是政府政策类话题和健康类话题的结合。考题虽新，但政府类话题和健康类话题话题却是经常出现的。考到政府政策类的话题，有一个思路总是可以通用的，那就是：政府可以通过教育来提升人们对于......的认识（这比花大笔资金建设某某工程要来的更“实惠”和有效。)下面的范文是朗阁海外考试研究中心研究员撰写的高分范文，其中就有对该思路的体现，值得借鉴。SampleAnswer（359words）Theconstructionofnewsportsfacilitiesaredefinitelyneededinanenvironmentwherepeople'shealthisinadecliningstate.However,therearethosewhobelievethatthewaytoimprovingpeople'shealthshouldlieinothermeasuresthatgovernmentshavetocomeupwithtogetpeopletolivemorehealthily.Inmanycountriesaroundtheworld,sportsfacilitiesarediminishingatanalarmingrate,withexistingonesbeingthreatenedwithclosureorfaceredevelopmentinfavorofhousingandcommercialdevelopment.Thelackofsportsfacilitieshasdirectlyledtoasharpdeclineinthegeneralpublic’sinvolvementinsportsactivities,whichisthemajorculpritforillhealthandexcessiveweightnowadays.Ifawiderrangeofsportsandfitnessfacilities(swimmingpools,basketballcourtandgymnasiumsetc.)wereavailable,thenpeoplewouldbemorewillingtospendtimeinthesefacilitiestotraintheirbodiesandtoimprovetheirfitness,insteadoflivingasedentarylifeathomewatchingtelevision,playingvideogamesorusingcomputers.However,thebuildingofsuchfacilitiesmaybecomeawasteoftimeandtaxpayers’moneyiftheyarebuiltfarawayfromwherepeopleliveoriftheyaretooexpensivetouse.Therearescenesofemptysportsgroundsinmanycitiesbecauseittakestoomuchtroubletogetthere,andmanysportsclubsarereceivingfewerguestsbecausetheychargeunreasonablyhighmembershipfees.Inthesecases,thegovernmentshouldbespendingmoreonadvertisinghealthierlifestyleinsteadofjustwastingmoneyonfacilitiesthatarenotgoingtobeactivelyusedbythepeople.Forexample,itisimportantforpeopletoknowthatlittlethingslikejoggingortakingthestairsprovideasmanybenefitsasusingexercisingequipmentinasportsclub.Allinall,thegovernmentshouldbespendingmoremoneyonthecampaignsofgettingthepeopletobemoreinvolvedinahealthierlifestyleinsteadofwastingtaxpayers’moneyonsportsfacilitiesthatarebarelyusedbythegeneralpublic.Thisisbyfarthebestwayofimprovingthehealthstandardsofanationasawhole.2009年3月7日Newspapershavebecomeanenormousinfluenceonpeople’sideasandopinions.Whyisthisthecase?Isitadesirableorundesirablesituation?Thenicknameofthe“UncrownedKing”giventothemodernjournalistisbynomeansanexaggeration.Inalmosteverymodernsociety,newspapershavebeenplayinganessentialroleinshapingpeople’sthoughtsonawiderangeofissuesandarealwaysregardedasanindispensablesourceofinformation.Inmyopinion,thiscomplexphenomenoncanbeboileddowntoseveralkeyfactors,andbothitspositiveandnegativeaspectsneedtobeanalyzedthoroughly.Tobeginwith,humancuriosityisanunderlyingfactorinthegrowingpopularityofnewspapers.Astheonlyspeciesontheplanetequippedwithextraordinaryintelligence,humansareinveteratelycuriousaboutthelatesteventsaroundtheglobe.Therefore,allkindsofnewspapersprosperinsuchanagethati
