  接下来,跟大家分享一个最近的写作题目:


  People are wearing western-style clothes rather than more traditional clothes.Why is this?Is it a negative or positive development?


  这道题是12月26号的考题,也是2016年8月4日的亚太地区雅思写作考题,问的就是为什么人们都在穿西式衣服而不是传统服饰。


  参考范文来自KhalidHasmath老师,中文部分的翻译由鲜菇本人来完成,内容如下:


  With the spread of globalization,western clothing has reached all conners of the globe,which has gradually replaced traditional clothes.Reasons for this occurrence as well as the pros and cons of this phenomenon will bepresented.


  随着全球化的发展,西方服饰已经浸入了全世界的各个角落,慢慢取代了传统服饰。接下来会讨论这个现象背后的原因和优缺点。


  In history,western clothing was seen as a status symbol that only the affluent couldafford,not to mention wearing such garments allowed people to be perceived as more influential and powerful.In modern-day society,western clothes are representative of personal freedom to wear what individuals prefer,rather than being confined to the constrains of their cultural or historical traditions.Moreover,western clothing tends to be more comfortable than traditional clothing,which may be too tight,such as Mandarin gown,or difficult or time-consuming to put on,including the Japanese kimono.Furthermore,celebrities portray westernized clothing and culture in their films,music videos and in the media,which is attractive to large groups of people invarious countries.


  历史上,西方服饰是身份的象征,因为只有有钱人才买得起,穿这样的衣服大多是有影响力、有权势的人。在当代,西方服饰是个人自由的象征,想穿什么就穿什么,而不是被文化或历史传统所限制。此外,西方服饰变得越来越舒适了,相比之下,传统服饰可能会比较紧绷,比如满族长袍,而有的衣服则要花很长时间才能穿上去,比如日本和服。此外,名人们会在影片、音乐视频或者媒体中去展示西方服饰,吸引着不同国家的大量人群。


  On the one hand,citizens of the globe wearing the same clothing promotes a sense of unity,despite national borders or backgrounds.Moreover,from an economic standpoint,the companies that produce these types of clothing would benefit by gaining larger numbers of customers and generating significantly higher revenues.On the other hand,a loss of culture may occur whereby younger generation may not be intrigued by wearing traditional clothes or passing down these historical garment traditions to the next generation.


  一方面,全球的人们穿同类的衣服会有一种统一感,尽管有边境的存在和背景的差异。此外,从经济学的角度来看,生产这类衣服的公司也会从中受益,创造巨大的利润。然而,文化的丧失会使年轻人不会想要去穿传统服饰,也不愿将传统服饰的文化传承给下一代。


  All in all,there are a variety of reasons people are adopting western-themed clothing including status,freedom,comfort and celebrity influence.It can be considered a beneficial occurrence for international camaraderie and certain enterprises or a detrimental phenomenon in that a loss of culture and a lack of widespread usage may arise.


  总的来说,人们穿西方服饰有很多原因,比如身份、自由、舒适度和名人效应。这种现象对国际友谊和一些企业是有好处的,但同时也是一种文化的丧失。
