第①种议论文题型 Discuss
出题方式:Some people think that A 观点, while others believe that B 观点. Discuss both
views and give your opinion.
讨论双方观点,并且给出你的个人意见。
审题过程:
1.不带感情地推理各自观点的合理性
2.然后再斩钉截铁地给出我的看法(偏向>取决于)
Some people think watching TV is bad for children, while others think that watching TV has
more beneficial effects on children. Discuss both views and give your own opinion.
好处:获得平时接触不到的知识
坏处:对健康产生危害
A. Accept
B. Improve
减轻压力,轻松,不用强迫自己干不想干的事情
提高生活质量,获得更多的钱,满足感,boost self-esteem 增强自尊
我坚定的认为应该过更有意义的人生
虽然接受困境看起来可以减轻压力但是这种好处是暂时的,如果人们任由这种处境糟
糕发展,人们可能最终会遇到一些无法扭转的结果,比如错过一些改变人生的机会。
写作逻辑:
核心段各自分析A和B两个观点的合理性,
然后在结尾段给出详细的个人观点。
给出清晰的个人观点是考察重点。
个人观点里必须明确体现A和B之间的关系,这也决定了核心段的
展开顺序
第一种情况: 一方弱一方强(一般通过强化和弱化来得出偏向结论);
第二种情况:两个观点必须共存(缺一不可);
第三种情况:取决于(取决于的内容必须和核心段扩展内容相关)
第1种情况
这个题目里的两个观点都有道理,但是你有一定的偏向。
在介绍段预告你的观点偏向,
然后在核心段按照弱-强的顺序依次展开。
结尾段的时候结合核心段的扩展内容来强化强,弱化弱。
弱强观点的结构安排
1) 开门见山一句话引出争论或者背景事实 + 简单预告个人观点,轻松结束介绍段
It is considered by some that being a university graduate is the key to securing a good
job, while there are others who think that it is better to have experience and soft skills.
In my opinion,I believe that having university education is essential for academic jobs
while soft skills and experience are more useful in business.
2) On the one hand, 核心段—顺着题目展开弱的观点
3) On the other hand, 核心段—顺着题目展开强的观点
Some people think young people should be free to choose his or her job,but other
people think they should be realistic and think more about their future. Discuss both
views and give your own opinion.
1.心情愉悦,因为他每天做的都是自己感兴趣的甚至自己擅长的,这些内容给他
带来很多快乐,避免了这种工作所带来的无聊boredom
2.更有可能获得成功achieve success。因为他们自己找的这种工作他们自己喜欢
的工作会更投入精力和这种热情,甚至下班以后还会继续去研究思考和创作,相
比那些为了挣工资而工作的人,他们更容易获得一些最终的成就,比如作品
1.务实的找工作对自己生活质量有保障life quality。他们去找的这些比较务实的
工作都能提供稳定的收入,会有比较规律的假期以及不错的job benefit让他们有
能力去供养家人
2.job security,为未来做打算。
这两段必须字数基本平衡,相差不要超过20词,尽量做到扩展方法平衡。
这两段只能分析两种观点的合理性,只能用第三人称。
这两段尽量多用推测语气:could/may/be likely to/tend to,不要用will
如果选择了偏向的个人观点,那么核心段应该按照先弱后强的顺序
4) 重复自己的观点+做出详细的解释,突出自己的偏向(短期-长远 少数-多数
偶尔-经常)
1.最常见的偏向型观点
Personally, I strongly believe that…重复自己的偏向(重复理由)Although…引出对
方理由...反驳这个理由...Therefore, my view is that…重复自己的观点(对比)
个人而言,我坚定的认为年轻人应该多去考虑工作带来的具体的回报,这有助于
他们保障生活质量和确保工作的安全。虽然去找一份自己喜欢的工作确实令人
开心甚至激动,但是这种好处不会持续长久。随着年轻人逐渐面对生活家庭婚姻
的压力,他们会后悔自己的工作过于理想化。因此我的观点是找一份务实的工作
带来的好处远超做一份喜欢的工作带来的好处。
In the long term
In most cases
For the majority of people
Some people believe that the country would benefit a lot from a large number of young
people entering into university. However, others think that the large amount of people
receiving the education of university only leads to graduate unemployment. Discuss
both views and give your own opinion.
1.科技。只有科技人员的毕业,航空航天,国防科技
2.医疗。只有足够的医学院的毕业生,才有足够的人去看病,做手术。
3.工作不满足大学生的expectations
1例文:
Some people believe famous people's support towards international aid organisations
draws attention to problems, while others think celebrities make the problems seem less
important. Discuss both views and give your opinion.
It is quite common that many celebrities, like movie stars and famous athletes, participate in
activities held by international aid organisations. Opinions are divided on how their support
affects these activities. I believe that famous people’s involvement in charitable events can
definitely attract more attention and provide more help to the problems.
On the one hand, there has been a concern that the importance of charitable activities may be
weakened with the presence of many famous people. This is because fans of the movie stars
or the NBA legends may pay more attention to how their idols dress themselves or whether
they are in the centre of the stage. What is worse, tabloids lead readers to the gossip or
scandals of the celebrities instead of how much they contribute to helping people in need.
This explains why many people worry that famous people may have a negative effect on the
charitable activity they participate in.
On the other hand, advocates of celebrities’ support towards worldwide pressing issues
believe that they have such significant influence on millions of people following their
accounts on social media, such as Twitter or Facebook. When these famous people deliver a
speech in a fundraising gala or make a donation to an organisation towards assisting needy
people in third world countries, their followers may contribute their own effort to combating
the same problems. For example, in 2015, hundreds of sports stars and Nobel Prize winners
who took part in a series of activities named the Ice Bucket Challenge successfully promoted
awareness of the disease ALS and encouraged donations to research.
Personally, my view is that while the attention of the public may be drawn from the event
itself to the stars they are interested in, this usually lasts for a short period of time. Support
from these famous people, in the long term, will play a significant role in arousing people's
awareness towards the issues that need to be addressed.
第2种情况
A/B观点的内容让你觉得他们在解决一个问题上是缺一不可的,
所以你会选择一个共存的观点逻辑来写这篇文章。
共存观点的的结构安排
1) 用模板句来引出争论 或者 从两个观点里找出共通的事实。In my opinion,
清晰明了的一个观点句
2) On the one hand, 核心段—展开A观点
3) On the other hand, 核心段—展开B观点
4) (仍然两句话)Personally, 先重复个人观点,然后强调两者各自的重要性.
1. I believe that rules and freedom play equally important roles, so they should co-exist in the
growth of every child.
2. I believe that the joint effort of the government and individuals is the key to eradicating
environmental problems.
3. I believe that a combination of skyscrapers and low-rise buildings is an ideal strategy of
city planning.
4. I believe that both punishments and other measures should be used together to make roads
safer.
2例文:
Some believe cities should build more high-rise buildings, while others say it is better
for people’s life to restrict the height of buildings. Discuss both views and give your
opinion.
Most modern cities are faced with the dilemma of using their limited land resources to build
high-rise or low-rise buildings. I believe that a combination of both is an ideal strategy for
city planning.
Increasing the number of high-rise buildings is beneficial to the development of cities in
terms of economic growth and environmental improvements. With regard to the former, as
skyscrapers can significantly increase the space available for business and residence, a larger
number of companies and employees can be well accommodated in cities, such as London or
New York, which may contribute to more business activities and better economy. The other
benefit of an increasing number of tall buildings is that more open spaces can be saved for
various public facilities, such as parks, squares, and sports facilities. All of these contribute to
improvements in citizens' living environment.
On the other hand, people in support of the government posing a limit on the height of
buildings believe that living in such an environment has obvious advantages to their
day-to-day life. Firstly, if the community mainly consists of three or four-storey residential
buildings, each household can enjoy more sunshine and better ventilation which contribute to
lifting peoples' spirit and improving their health. In addition, residents of low-rise buildings,
which usually are not equipped with lifts, are forced to climb stairs on a daily basis. As a
result, a healthier lifestyle can be promoted and people are also more likely to meet their
neighbours.
In my opinion, a well-planned city should grow vertically with more tall buildings in central
business districts, while providing citizens with more comfortable communities by limiting
the height of their houses. In short, only by combining tall and short buildings can a city be
developed in the best way.
3例文:
Completing university education is thought by some to be the best way to get a good job.
On the other hand, other people think that getting experience and developing soft skills
is more important. Discuss both sides and give your opinion.
It is considered by some that being a university graduate is the key to securing a good job,
while there are others who think that it is better to have experience and soft skills. In my
opinion,I believe that having university education is essential for academic jobs while soft
skills and experience are more useful in business.
On the one hand, many think it is easier for most people to find a good job if they are
university graduates with a good degree. In other words, having tertiary education puts
people one step ahead of others who do not and this can be the deciding factor in getting a
good job. The competition to get into universities and the increasing number of graduates
show just how significant this level of education is for people's future work opportunities.
On the other hand, having work experience and soft skills, such as leadership skills and other
interpersonal skills, can also throw the balance in favour of the applicant, according to some.
For many positions there are an overwhelming number of applicants and, therefore, it is often
thought that having relevant experience in that line of work or having acquired useful soft
skills that can be valuable to a company, can put one ahead of the game when applying for a
position.
Finally, in my opinion, whether needing high level education or skills and experience,
depends on the position being applied for. Take for example law, medicine or teaching, it is
impossible to be considered for a position without the required educational background. In
contrast, in business, it would be more important for a candidate to have soft skills and
experience in that line of business so they can step into a position without further training and
be of immediate benefit to the company. – 必须要详细解释的个人观点段
In conclusion, getting a good job requires a relevant background either in experience or
education depending on the type of work and field. People should make sure they attain the
necessary skills or degrees before applying for a job in order to be sure of success. – 重复前
面的个人观点
discuss 类型的介绍段
1) 总结A/B的共同讨论点(模板句)
2) 回答个人观点
1.Some people think that paying taxes is enough to contribute to society. Others argue
that being a citizen involves more responsibilities. Discuss both views and give your opinion.
People have different opinions about whether paying taxes is the only civic duty they
should take. Although being a taxpayer helps them to make their contributions to
developing the society, I would argue that there are many other social responsibilities
for every member of the community.
2.Some people think that robots are very important to humans' future development, but others
think that they are dangerous and have negative effects on society. Discuss both views and
give your opinion.
People have different opinions about whether intelligent robots are beneficial to human’s
future or harmful to the society. In my opinion, while there may be some problems caused by
using artificial intelligence, it will be incredibly helpful in the future.
3.Some people think that children of busy parents should be sent to daycare centres, while
others believe that they should be cared for by their grandparents. Discuss both views and
give your opinion.
People have different views about who should help parents that are too busy to take care of
their children. In my opinion, although grandparents are able to look after their grandchildren
with sufficient attention and care, sending them to a kindergarten is a wiser decision.
4.Some people think that paying taxes is enough to contribute to society. Others argue that
being a citizen involves more responsibilities. Discuss both views and give your opinion.
In almost every country, citizens are required by the law to pay their fair share of taxes.
Although paying taxes helps people to make their contributions to developing the society, I
would argue that there are many other social responsibilities for every member of the
community.
5.Some people say that to become a good teacher, you should acquire enough training, while
others say that teaching capabilities can be developed with experience. Discuss both views
and give your opinion
Teachers are expected to be skilful at teaching and guiding students not only academically but
also morally. In my opinion, such skills can be better fostered through real work experience
than theoretical training.
6.Some people think that studying in a college or university is the best way for students to
prepare for their future career. But others think they should leave school as soon as possible
to develop their career through work experience. Discuss both these views and give your own
opinion.
Many young people have to face a dilemma of whether to start to work as early as possible or
continue their education in a university after graduating from high school. I think that the
latter option is much wiser than the former one.
