雅思寫作大作文高分范文：政府只投資有用科學(xué)研究
Many people think that arts (painting and music) do not directly improve people's life, so government should spend money on other important areas. Do you agree or disagree? (2012.07.28)
這兩道題非常近似。今天雅思寫作題目的對立面是rather than 左右兩邊的scientific research 和research for less useful subjects;而7月28日的對立面是arts 和other important areas. 本質(zhì)上前者的scientific research 對應(yīng)后者other important areas的一部分; 前者的less useful subjects對應(yīng)后者的arts. 類似的雅思寫作題目還有2011.11.05和 2011.07.16
除了主要部分的相似，今天的雅思寫作題目也有細微的不同之處。同學(xué)們要特別注意postgraduate research，所有關(guān)于藝術(shù)和科學(xué)的討論都要圍繞postgraduate research來進行。
雅思寫作思路：
第一段：引入話題的對立面：獎學(xué)金發(fā)放，大學(xué)研究經(jīng)費傾向科學(xué)還是‘用處不大’的學(xué)科，如藝術(shù)，社會科學(xué)
第二段：1當(dāng)然科學(xué)研究可以直接產(chǎn)生看得見的成果，如產(chǎn)品或技術(shù)，可以提高人民的生活水平;2科研的成果會提高生產(chǎn)力;3 醫(yī)學(xué)研究提高大眾健康水平和壽命
但是只支持科學(xué)研究，而不顧人們其他方面的需求會導(dǎo)致社會畸形發(fā)展，最終也會制約科技的發(fā)展。
第三段：人民需要藝術(shù)，因為：藝術(shù)相關(guān)人們的情感和價值觀，這是人們行為的核心部分;藝術(shù)培養(yǎng)人的創(chuàng)造和創(chuàng)新能力;藝術(shù)是娛樂休閑方式，藝術(shù)是感情和精力釋放的安全方式;藝術(shù)促進不同文化和民族間的理解，穩(wěn)定社會的發(fā)展。社會科學(xué)如哲學(xué)歷史人類學(xué)心理學(xué)等加深人們對人類自身的理解和更深遠地對未來的健康發(fā)展的規(guī)劃。
第四段：政府應(yīng)該既資助大學(xué)的科學(xué)研究，也資助社會科學(xué)和藝術(shù)。這樣才能創(chuàng)造一個健康有生機的社會

雅思寫作范文：
While the economy is booming in many countries, arts and social science postgraduate students are finding it more and more difficult to get scholarship or any other financial support. By contrast, more funds are favor to scientific areas. This leads to declining enrolment in arts and social science disciplines. The main reason is that some people overly emphasize economic benefits of scientific research, but underestimate the intangible roles of the arts, history, philosophy or anthropology and consider them less useful.
在許多國家經(jīng)濟蓬勃發(fā)展的同時，藝術(shù)和社會科學(xué)的研究生們發(fā)現(xiàn)獲得獎學(xué)金或其他經(jīng)濟資助越來越困難。相比之下，更多的資金被用于科學(xué)領(lǐng)域。這導(dǎo)致了藝術(shù)和社會科學(xué)學(xué)科的入學(xué)率下降。主要原因是有些人過分強調(diào)科學(xué)研究的經(jīng)濟利益，卻低估了藝術(shù)、歷史、哲學(xué)或人類學(xué)的無形作用，認為它們用處不大。
It is a general practice in many countries that universities carry their responsibility of conducting research for the good of their community and sharing their results with the public. If we were to judge the value of a research by its material value, scientific research surely benefit people’s life more directly and visible than the arts. Such examples can range widely from medical breakthroughs which enhance human longevity and public health, to communication technology innovations which convenient the interaction between people and empower the mobility of individuals and businesses. Products, such as cars driven by solar energy, aimed at tackling environmental issues can make the earth a better place for us to live. However, the improved living standards do not necessarily increase the happiness of people as they are by nature emotionally connected to the world around them. That is to say the quality of life does not solely depend on materialism.
在許多國家，這是一種普遍的做法，大學(xué)承擔(dān)著為社區(qū)的利益進行研究的責(zé)任，并與公眾分享他們的成果。如果我們用物質(zhì)價值來判斷一項研究的價值，科學(xué)研究肯定會比藝術(shù)更直接、更直觀地讓人們的生活受益。這些例子可以廣泛地從提高人類壽命和公共衛(wèi)生的醫(yī)學(xué)突破，到通信技術(shù)的創(chuàng)新，方便人們之間的相互作用，并增強個人和企業(yè)的流動性。產(chǎn)品，例如由太陽能驅(qū)動的汽車，旨在解決環(huán)境問題，可以讓地球成為我們生活的更好的地方。然而，生活水平的提高并不一定會增加人們的幸福感，因為他們天生就與周圍的世界有情感聯(lián)系。也就是說，生活的質(zhì)量并不僅僅依賴于物質(zhì)主義。
Humans are emotional beings and need not only bread to eat but also roses to enjoy. It is the arts that deal with the non-material aspects of life such as passions, values and relationships which significantly influence people’s feelings and judgments. These are ultimately central to people’s behaviors. Another important benefit is that the arts inspire people to see their world from a personal point of view which is usually very unique and creative. And creativity and innovation is a crucial quality for an individual to excel in society and make the best of their life. Other values of the arts include relaxation and entertainment, safe way of channeling energy and passion, enhancing understanding between cultures and races. Social science leads people to reflect on human self and make a deeper comprehension of the society, helping make reasonable and positive decision for long-term issues.
人類是情感的存在，不僅需要面包來吃，也需要玫瑰來享受。是藝術(shù)處理生活中的非物質(zhì)方面，如激情、價值觀和關(guān)系，這些都極大地影響著人們的感情和判斷。這些都是人們行為的核心。另一個重要的好處是，藝術(shù)鼓勵人們從個人的角度去看待他們的世界，這通常是非常獨特和有創(chuàng)造性的。創(chuàng)新和創(chuàng)新是一個人在社會中出類拔萃的關(guān)鍵品質(zhì)，也是他們生活中最好的。其他的藝術(shù)價值包括放松和娛樂，安全的引導(dǎo)能量和激情，增進文化和種族之間的理解。社會科學(xué)引導(dǎo)人們反思自我，對社會有更深刻的理解，有助于對長期問題做出合理、積極的決策。
To conclude, research on the arts and social science are as important as science for humans, although they benefit us in different ways. To maintain a healthy and robust society, governments should offer equal financial support in all areas of society.
總之，對藝術(shù)和社會科學(xué)的研究對人類來說和科學(xué)一樣重要，盡管它們對我們有不同的益處。為了維持一個健康而強健的社會，政府應(yīng)該在社會各方面提供平等的財政支持。
