(13) Do you agree or disagree with the following statement: governments should spend more money in sponsoring arts than on athletics? 开头:不同意政府花更多的钱在资助艺术上而不是体育。(话题引入+他人观点+明确立场+过渡句) Arts and athletics both play indispensable roles in people’s life, for arts nurture people’s minds while athletics help to build a healthy and strong body. Thus, there has recently been a heated debate on which one deserves more financial aid from the government. As far as I am concerned, the government should give priority to athletics. I am going to elaborate my point of view in the following paragraphs. 中间段 1:现代人缺乏锻炼意识,多数处于亚健康状态。(主题句+说理论证+细节例子) Firstly, the physical quality of modern people is not as good as in the past, which calls for more exercises. Along with the high-speed development of society, people, especially youth, are confronted with unprecedented competition. They need to work very hard to guarantee a decent life, which causes most of them be in the state of sub-health. Therefore, it is high time that the government took some measures to reinforce citizens’ health condition. For example, the government should build easily accessible sports facilities in the neighborhoods and make known to the public the benefits of doing exercises through mass media. 中间段 2:体育强是国家实力的体现,能增强人们的自豪感和凝聚力。(主题句+说理论证+细节例子) Secondly, as the symbol of national power, a country’s competitiveness helps to boost people’s cohesion and patriotism. When people watch sports competition on TV, they will be very excited and proud to witness their sportsmen standing on the podium with national anthem ringing and the national flag rising. It is no denying that it is an excellent opportunity for the population to develop an identity with the state. It is the government’s responsibility to create more opportunities like this by putting more emphasis on sports. For example, galvanized by governmental financial aid, Chinese swimming team has recently made tremendous achievements in international competitions, which greatly boosts the morale of all Chinese people. 让步段:当然,艺术也很重要,能提高民族的品位和修养。但是跟艺术相比,体育有更基础的重要性,或者说体育是“雪中送炭”,而艺术只是“锦上添花”。(承认漏洞+堵漏) Admittedly, the importance of arts should never be overlooked. The creation of artistic atmosphere is conducive to cultivating people’s taste and temperament. If a society is artistically cultivated, its people’s souls are hardly to be corrupted by materials. However, compared with arts, athletics is more fundamental. In other words, without a good health condition, people would not be able to achieve anything including arts. Thus, the vital importance of athletics is self-evident. 结尾:重申观点+归纳理由/升华主题 From what has been discussed above, we can safely draw a conclusion that the government should give more financial support to athletics. Chairman Mao, the founder of PRC, once said that a good body is the root of revolution. The fundamental significance of athletics to human beings cannot be overestimated. 【重点表达】 1. play an indispensable role in…:在……中扮演了不可或缺的重要角色 2. nurture people’s minds:滋润人的心灵 3. give priority to:优先考虑 4. physical quality:体质 5. call for:需要 6. along with…:随着…… 7. be confronted with:面临 8. be in the state of sub-health:处于亚健康状态 9. it is high time that…:到了……的时候了 10. make known to:向……宣传 11. mass media:大众传媒 12. national anthem/flag:国歌/国旗 13.

They need to work very hard to guarantee a decent life, which causes most of them be in the state of sub-health. 随着社会的高速发展,人们(特别是年轻人)面临着前所未有的压力,他们需要更努力地工作才能确保一种体面的生活,这使很多人的身体都处于亚健康状态。 *论述体育能带给人们国家认同感的桥段 When people watch sports competition on TV, they will be very excited and proud to witness their sportsmen standing on the podium with national anthem ringing and the national flag rising. It is no denying that it is an excellent opportunity for the population to develop an identity with the state. 当人们在电视上观看体育比赛时,他们会非常兴奋和自豪地看到他们国家的运动员站在领奖台上,伴随着国歌的奏响和国旗的升起。毫无疑问,这是一个培养人们国家认同感最好的机会。 *论述艺术对人心灵的好处 The creation of artistic atmosphere is conducive to cultivating people’s taste and temperament. If a society is artistically cultivated, its people’s souls are hardly to be corrupted by materials. 艺术氛围的打造对提升人们的品位和修养是至关重要的。如果一个社会的艺术氛围好,人们的心灵很难被物质侵蚀。 【参考译文】 同不同意:政府应该花更多的钱支持艺术而不是体育? 艺术和体育在人们的生活中共同扮演了不可或缺的角色,艺术滋润了人的心灵而体育强健了人的体魄。因此,出现了一个热议的话题,关于哪一个应该得到更多的政府经济支持。依我看,政府应该更加重视体育。我将用下面几个段落来论述我的观点。 首先,现代人的体质已经不如以前了,这种局面需要加强运动来扭转。随着社会的高速发展,人们(特别是年轻人),面临着前所未有的压力,他们需要更努力地工作才能确保一种体面的生活,这使很多人的身体都处于亚健康状态。因此,现在到了政府采取措施增强民众体质的时候了。举个例子,政府应该在社区建造更多唾手可得的体育设施,并且通过大众媒体加强宣传运动的好处。 第二,一个国家在体育上的竞争力是国家实力的标志,能增强民众的凝聚力和爱国主义情怀。当人们在电视上观看体育比赛时,他们会非常兴奋和自豪地看到他们国家的运动员站在领奖台上,伴随着国歌的奏响和国旗的升起。毫无疑问,这是一个培养人们国家认同感最好的机会。政府应该通过大力发展体育去创造更多这样的机会。例如,受到国家经济支持的激励,中国国家游泳队最近在国际比赛上捷报频传,这大大鼓舞了国人的士气。 诚然,艺术的重要性也不能被忽略。艺术氛围的打造对提升人们的品位和修养是至关重要的。如果一个社会的艺术氛围好,人们的心灵很难被物质侵蚀。但是,跟艺术相比,体育具有更基础的意义。换句话说,没有好的身体,人们很难做任何事情包括艺术。因此,体育的重要性不言而喻。 从上面的论述我们可以得出以下结论:政府应该给体育更多的经济支持。毛主席,中华人民共和国的缔造者,曾经说过“好的身体是革命的本钱”。体育运动对于人民群众的基础性意义再怎么强调也不为过。 本文来源:https://www.wddqw.com/doc/c744d21ff80f76c66137ee06eff9aef8951e482c.html
