写作题目讲解:
本考题属于典型的社会类。以前类似考题曾考过“老年人与年轻人之间的不同”和“Every generation of people is different in important ways”.而本考题在考查范围上有所定位, 用了“valued”这个词。此题属于“Discuss类”, 有两个方面, 在论证时需要运用对称式写法。
写作范文:
In this essay, I shall explain why I think we that should value old age and youth, without suggesting that one is better than the other.
在这篇文章中,我将解释为什么我认为我们应该重视老年和青年,而不建议一个比另一个好。
I feel that we should celebrate the fact that so many people make it to old age. In the past, thanks to war, disease and the dangers of childbirth, most people were not so fortunate. Particularly in Western societies, a large (and growing) proportion of the population is past the age of retirement and most of those people are enjoying life. Many have saved enough money to live well and travel around the world or to play golf or to do whatever it is that they enjoy. They value the time they have and want to make the most of it. Simultaneously, societies around the world value the elderly for the experience and knowledge that they have gained over the years.
我觉得我们应该庆祝这么多人到老年的事实。过去,由于战争、疾病和分娩的危险,大多数人都没有那么幸运。尤其在西方社会,很大一部分人口(而且在不断增加)已经过了退休年龄,而且大多数人都在享受生活。许多人攒了足够的钱好好生活,环游世界,或者打高尔夫球,或者做任何他们喜欢的事情。他们珍惜他们所拥有的时间,并想充分利用它。同时,世界各地的社会重视老年人多年来积累的经验和知识。
At the same time, cultures and individuals around the world value youth. Some people value it so much that they are prepared to spend plenty of money on maintaining a youthful look, through the use of make-up and plastic surgery. Youth is often seen as a time to be dynamic and fun, developing new ideas and trying things differently. This can be very useful to an economy. Would China have been able to develop so quickly in recent decades without a large supply of young people ready to take their chances in Shenzhen or Shanghai?
同时,世界各地的文化和个人都珍视青春。有些人非常珍惜它,以至于他们准备通过化妆和整形手术花很多钱来保持年轻的外表。青年常常被视为一个充满活力和乐趣的时代,发展新观念,尝试不同的事物。这对经济是非常有用的。如果没有大量年轻人愿意在深圳或上海冒险,中国近几十年能如此迅速地发展吗?
These are the main reasons why I think that it is a mistake to value either old age or youth and not the other. Of course, most people will value one more than the other, possibly depending on their age. However, as a culture - as a society - we should value both.
这就是为什么我认为无论是老年还是年轻,而不是另一个都是错误的。当然,大多数人都会比另一个人更有价值,这可能取决于他们的年龄。然而,作为一种文化——作为一个社会——我们应该重视两者。
