Some

people

think

that

students

should

only

study

science

subjects.

Other

subjects

are

not

important to them. To what extent do you agree or disagree?

Model Answer:

Some

people

suggest

that

students

only

study

science

subjects.

Although

I

agree

that

science

subjects are important, I think that students should also study a variety of other subjects.

On the one hand, science subjects should be core subjects on the school curriculum. In modern

history, science and technology have been the most influential driving forces behind productivity

and material prosperity, and are particularly important in an age of global economic competition.

The knowledge gained through science subjects, such as physics, chemistry and biology, prepares

children for future careers in science, technology, engineering or medicine. Without compulsory

science courses, schools would fail to produce enough young people with scientific knowledge

and techno

logical skills for their country’s economic development.

On the other hand, people’s well

-being does not only depend on material success. Other subjects

on

the

school

curriculum

also

serve

the

common

good

and

therefore

should

not

be

ignored.

Music classe

s, for example, teach children to express their emotions better and appreciate others’

more.

Also,

art

classes

stimulate

children’s

imagination

and

encourage

them

to

approach

problems creatively, which helps to prepare a creative workforce for the future.

Science

subjects

cannot

even

serve

the

common

good

well

if

other

subjects

on

the

school

curriculum

are

not

effectively

or

efficiently

taught.

For

instance,

it

is

hard

to

imagine

that

students can present the results of their scientific experiments clearly in their papers if they have

not gained systematic knowledge of academic writing in their language classes.

In

conclusion,

I

would

agree

that

a

good

curriculum

should

be

balanced

and

consist

of

a wide

range of areas, including natural science, social studies, arts and humanities.

例文

：

Using

a

computer every

day

can

have

more

negative

than

positive

effects

on

children.

Do

you

agree or disagree?

Model Answer:

I tend to agree that young children can be negatively affected by too much time

spent on the

computer

every

day.

This

is

partly

because

sitting

in

front

of

a

screen

for

too

long

can

be

damaging to both the eyes and the physical posture of a young child, regardless of what they are

using the computer for.

The main concern is about the type of computer activities that attract children. These are often

electronic games that tend to be very intense and rather violent. The player is usually the “hero”

of the game and too much exposure can encourage children to be self-centred and insensitive to

others.

Even when children use a computer for other purposes, such as getting information or emailing

friends, it is no substitute for human interaction. Spending time with other children and sharing

experiences is an important part of a child’s d

evelopment that cannot be provided by a computer.

In spite of this, the obvious benefits of computer skills for young children cannot be denied. Their

adult world will be changing constantly in terms of technology and the Internet is the key to all

the

knowledge

and

information

available

in

the

world

today.

Therefore,

it

is

important

that

children learn at an early age to use the equipment with confidence as they will need these skills

throughout their studies and working lives.

I

think

the

main

point

is

to

make

sure

that

young

children

do

not

overuse

computers.

Parents

must ensure that their children learn to enjoy other kinds of activity and not simply sit at home,

learning to live in a virtual world.

例文

With

the

increasing

use

of

mobile

phones

and

computers,

fewer

people

write

letters.

Some

people think that the traditional skill of letter writing will disappear. To what extent do you agree

or disagree?

Model Answer:

Mobile phones and the Internet are so widely used today that many people are concerned that

letters may completely disappear from our lives. Although I think this concern is understandable,

I do not think it will become a reality.

The

ease

and

immediacy

of

phone

calls,

text

messages

and

e-mails

make

them

attractive

to

people,

especially

to

young

and

busy

ones.

An

e-mail

or

a

text

message

can

reach

someone

thousands of kilometers away in a few seconds. The same e-mail or text message can even be

sent to multiple users at the same time. By contrast, it takes a letter several days to reach the

recipient.

E-mails and multimedia messages also allow their users to share pictures and videos and makes

communication

more

interactive

and

entertaining.

Another

advantage

of

e-mails

and

text

messages is that they can be stored

electronically on servers and mobile phones, while letters

always need some physical storage space.

In spite of this, I do not think that the tradition of letter-writing will disappear. Letters, especially

handwritten ones, have a strong personal touch. Letter-writing takes much more time and energy

than typing and sending an e-mail on a computer or calling someone on a mobile phone. This

helps

a

letter

to

express

emotions

more

deeply

than

an

e-mail

or

a

phone

call.

Letter-writing

works particularly well when we need to express our sympathy, support or romantic feelings. For

business or official purposes, letters can also provide the formality that is well-suited to formal

correspondence.

In conclusion, despite the advantages that e-mails and mobile phones have in speed, ease of use

and storage, I believe that letter-writing will continue to be useful for a variety of personal and

business purposes.

媒体类

The news media play an important role in modern society. Why are the news media so important?

Is the influence of the news media positive or negative?

Model Answer:

The news media, such as newspapers, news magazines, news websites and TV news shows, are a

very influential part of our lives.

There are two main reasons why the news media are important and popular in the twenty- first

century. The first one is that news reporting provides people with information about the events

that

just

happened

in

their

communities,

cities,

countries

or

even

other

countries.

As

we

are

living in a more competitive and globalised world, people who have access to the latest news can

usually make better- informed decisions and therefore have competitive advantages. The second

reason for the importance and popularity of the news media is that people are naturally curious

about new things. Through media reports we can get new information about important events

and celebrities, which not only satisfies our curiosity but also offers us interesting conversation

topics.

On

the

other

hand,

nowadays

many

news

media

companies

are

trying

to

increase

their

popularity and influence by adding entertainment value to their news reports. This often leads to

false news stories and results in widespread distrust of the news media. Another problem is that

many

news

media

networks

today

have

close

connections

with

politicians.

News presented

by

these

networks

is

often

biased

and

is

used

to

manipulate

the

public’s

opinion

to

help

the

politicians gain political advantages.

To conclusion, it is clear that the increasing influence and power of the news media is a result of

the knowledge, convenience and business value that they can provide. However, I believe that

dishonest journalists and news media networks who spread false news should be punished by

the law.

The government should pa

y for people’s health care and education. To what extent do you agree

or disagree?

Model Answer:

Health

care

and

education

are

basic

human

rights

and

needs.

Some

people

think

that

the

government should pay for citizens’ health care and education. I

partly agree with this view.

There

are

three

main

reasons

why

the

government

should

pay

for

citizens’

medical

and

educational costs. Firstly, a large proportion of government revenue comes from the taxes paid

by citizens. The government should reward taxpayers with health care and education. Secondly,

international

competition

in

economic

and

technological

fields

is

fierce

today.

The

educational

and health levels of citizens are important factors influencing the competitiveness of a country’s

workforce.

By

providing

citizens

with

education

and

health

care,

the

government

helps

to

promote

economic

and

technological

development

and

increase

the

competitiveness

of

the

workforce in the global economy. Thirdly, there are people who cannot afford basic health care or

education in almost every country. If the government did not pay for their basic healthcare or

educational

needs,

they

would

feel

that

they

are

treated

unfairly

by

the

government,

which

would be a source of social unrest.

However, the government only has limited financial resources. If it spends too much money on

health

care

and

education,

other

important

fields

such

as

scientific

research,

infrastructure

development

and

the

pension

system

may

be

under-funded

and

underdeveloped.

It

is

the

responsibility

of

the

government

to

keep

a

reasonable

balance

between

the

educational

and

healthcare needs of citizens and other financial needs that are also essential to economic growth

and social development.

Overall, I believe that the government should provide free health care and education to citizens

who

cannot

afford

them.

At

the

same

time,

it

should

encourage

businesses

to

provide

health

insurance to their employees, and fund public schools with the property tax that local residents

pay.

These

measures

can

help

the

government

to

keep

its

budget

balanced

and

achieve

more

sustainable economic growth.

例文：

It

is

suggested

that

everyone

in

the

world

wants

to

own

a

car,

a

TV

and

a

fridge.

Would

the

advantages of such a development to society outweigh the disadvantages?

Model Answer:

It is suggested that everyone in the world wants to own a private car, a TV and a refrigerator. I

think whether the advantages of such a development would outweigh its disadvantages would

depend on advances in technology.

Popular consumer goods can generally make individuals’ lives more convenient and enjoyable. A

car owner can have a more flexible schedule than people who rely on public transport. Television

gives viewers access to a wide range of information and entertainment, while refrigerators can

help people to preserve food longer than leaving it at room temperature. This is why universal

ownership of these consumer products is often associated with a higher standard of living.

On the other hand, the possible risks of everyone owning these consumer products should not be

underestimated.

With

current

technology,

more

energy

is

consumed

when

the

number

of

consumer

products

does

not

rises,

which

also

produces

more

pollution.

Sometimes

increasing

ownership of consumer products does not even lead to greater convenience or higher efficiency.

In large cities such as Beijing and Paris, the ever- rising number of cars has caused serious traffic

congestion and a significant increase in the amount of time that urban commuters spend on the

road. As a result, many of them take public transport instead and leave their cars in their garage.

There

is

also

the

risk

that

universal

TV

and

fridge

ownership

would

result

in

an

increase

in

sedentary lifestyle habits and people buying less fresh food.

Therefore,

I

believe

that

unless

future

technological

breakthroughs

could

make

popular

consumer

goods

far

more

environmentally-friendly

and

healthy

choices

than

they

are

now,

universal ownership of cars, TV sets and fridges would bring more problems than benefits.
