【陆哲说】大作文奇葩题目解析 红包横行

2023-02-08 环球教育

  相传“红包”从汉代就开始流行了,在咱们国家大家早已对此司空见惯了。不曾想,这些年开始在世界各地流行起来,所以也便有了这道雅思写作题目。其实这是一个非常典型的“社会发展类”题目。此类题目几乎涉及由于社会发展而产生的各种各样的新的生活方式,对此新生活方式的讨论也就成了雅思考试的一个话题重点。例如,人们对名牌趋之若鹜是怎么回事,各种明星收入颇高是好是坏,人口从乡村到城市的迁移究竟是为了什么,等等诸如此类的问题。

  的的确确,此类问题涉及的范围很广,对于烤鸭们而言在累积素材阶段不容易面面俱到。这着实需要考生们广泛阅读和关注新闻。但同时,在想论点阶段考生们也容易步入一个误区。这就是很多考生在想此类问题论点的时候,往往力求也所谓正确的论点。并且是放眼全球,横贯东西都正确的论点。这就是牛角尖中的牛角尖了。雅思考试虽是学术类写作,力争严谨,但根本不需要一个所谓正确完美的论点。只需要该论点符合逻辑,并且在文章中考生可以对其解释和支持,以求自圆其说逻辑自洽就足以满足考官的要求。简言之,我们不需要考官认同我们的论点,我们更需要考官接受我们的逻辑。明白这个道理之后,其实很多大家不敢拿来用的论点,就马上变成高质量的论点了。

  

  下文是我写的一个例文,供大家参考。

  In more and more countries, people choose to give money on special occasions rather than gifts chosen personally. Why might this be the case? Is it a positive or negative

development?

  Contemporarily, the trend sweeping the globe is that giving money is on some certain occasions replacing sending gifts people thoughtfully prepare for others. Therefore, reasons and

some possible consequences of this situation are in the spotlight of the public.

  典型的不能再典型的开头段,一句背景表达之后,自然而然地点题。

  

  On the one hand, many people choose money as gifts for their friends or family members just because it is a safe option. To be precise, most people nowadays are facing a fast-paced

lifestyle, implying they do not have enough time to pay close attention to people around them. Meanwhile, choosing an appropriate gift is a time- and energy-consuming task, requiring

people to know well about recipients, such as the color they are fond of, the sports they often do, or a particular thing that they plan to buy but have not for some reasons. Hence, selecting a perfect gift is a mission impossible for most people. Money might not be the best gift, whereas it is not the worst one either.

  这段其实只有一个论点,也就是一个原因的表达。给钱而不送礼物的原因就是给钱比较安全,而选择礼物会有很多“坑”。

  

  On the other hand, this trend actually objectifies our kinship and friendship, finally impacting our interpersonal relationship in a negative way. To be specific, the emotion we have on

our friends or family members should be priceless, but while choosing money as a gift, we in fact put a very detailed price tag on it. For example, we pay a thousand dollars as a birthday

gift for our best friend, which is able to clearly measure the friendship we own, and he/she will pay it back on our birthday. This means birthday gifts between us become less meaningful,

and thus our friendship may not be treasured to the same extent as before.

  这一段同上一段一样也只表达了一个影响。该影响是消极的,钱作为礼物会物化人与人之间的关系,最终会导致我们彼此的疏远。

  In summary, money is the safest present on most occasions, but possibly it alienates us from people whom we love and we should have spent more time with.

  结尾段也很规整,用了一个并列句,前后两部分分别总结了主一段和主二段。
