黄金80 issue 的思路（连载）

serlina · 发表于 2007-11-30 12:59:00

我在我的机井中写过，个人其实不主张issue 范文里一些对一个论题又支持又反对的文章。因为一般ETS出的题目，本身就是允许辩论的，所以如果既支持又反对，那就等于辩者没有一个明确的立场（不能两方的便宜都占着对不对）。

这其实是基于中文思辩方式和英文思辩方式的区别。美国高中生经常会有这种写作练习，但他们的老师会要求：只能占取一方立场，然后誓死维护。

个人推荐模板：第一句：说明自己赞成还是反对。第二句（optional）：可以说明这个论题open for argument（作出一定让步），但同时坚持自己立场。第三第四（第五句），给出后面给的三个理由。

正文三段：理由一，二，三。（第三个理由实在想不出的话，就用一个反论，比如without。。。或者 if some situation is not .....

结尾第一句：重复结论。第二三四句，重述理由（copy paste ，然后变个句式就可）。最后一句总结。

当然，从个人经验来看，最难的其实是给三个理由。我觉得一个是因为我这个人比较笨，不太善于思辩；二是觉得有些中文能讲，但是翻成英文四不象；三是从小在中国的教育体制下，没有经过这种思辩训练——从这个意义上讲，其实GMAT 是一种很好的学习过程。所以在这里贡献自己的一点总结，这些理由是通过一个多星期，和native speaker（此人无任何准备去考GRE，verbal 650）讨论很多次后提炼出来的，有些比较详细，有些比较粗疏，大家包涵了。

准备用连载形式，一是因为最近实在很忙，二是自己还有些东西要整理一下，先贴出两题

5.“All groups and organizations should function as teams
in which everyone makes decisions and shares responsibilities and duties. Giving
one person central authority and responsibility for a project or task is not an
effective way to get work done.

disagree

The assertion that everyone makes decisions
and shares responsibilities and duties is superficially sound. However, giving
one person central authority and responsibility in is in many ways more
effective and productive. This is due to the fact that different people may
have different approaches to solving a problem, and so might end up spending more
time trying to get their own approaches accepted, than they spend getting work
done. This is also because when equal responsibility is given to everyone, the
situation may arise in which no one takes responsibility to correct mistakes
when things go wrong.

(这个其实是我自己练的开头。基本上This is due to ...和 this is also because ...就是两个理由）正文可以将这两个理由分段具体论述）

8. “For hundreds of years, the
monetary system of most countries has been based on the exchange of metal coins
and printed pieces of paper. However, because of recent developments in
technology, the international community should consider replacing the entire
system of coins and paper with a system of electronic accounts of credits and
debits.”

agree

1。the coins and paper of the current system do not represent objects of
material value, such as silver or gold, but instead already have come to
represent an artificial and indefinite value determined by market forces.

2。a system of electronic accounts of credits and debits
is used more and more nowadays.

3。the electronic system will in many
ways discourge thefts and crimes.
