8.5独立写作:Do you agree or disagree with the following statement?
To increase economy, government should neglect environmental concerns.
In the business realm, the successful enterprises are generally defined, at least in our corporate culture, as those which achieve the goal of profit maximization for a firm’s shareholders or other owners. However, should we simply overlook the consequent damages exerted on our environment in their “profit” process? Could we ignore the gradually limited natural resources that are currently ineffectively yet randomly consumed? Could we justify the pointless but serious dependency of those corporations on the finite resources? The answer to these questions would definitely be no.(这里巧妙地用定义和三个疑问句来开头好棒!)
Admittedly, all businesses are inevitably regulated by the natural economic laws of supply and demand. Hardly could any entrepreneurs and economists approve that in order to reduce air and water pollution, we can force the entire industries out of business, run the risk of economic paralysis and trigger widespread unemployment. However, what we consider unjustified here is not the legal consumption conducted by conscientious companies. For those executives who desired to squeeze infinite profit out of natural resources, the earth is rather apparatus than homeland. Ignoring the environmental issues, albeit bringing short-term profits, will become the deadly undoing sooner or later.
Whether we are environmentalists who are desperate to evoke people’s vigilance on pollution issue and resource crisis, or politicians who are eventually eager to motivate a long and prosper economy, we are, in fact, forced to pay close attention to the environment. To be more specific, a serious debris flow had happened in 2010 in Gansu, China, bringing away thousands of lives. However, before the Great Leap Forward(这里举了大跃进的例子,建议用半句话进一步解释一下大跃进是为了生产不择手段的时期,毕竟不能够保证每一位考官都知道这是什么。), this place had always been covered with prosperous forests and definitely unlikely to incur a debris flow. The adverse affects(effects) of overlooking environmental issues still loom large in people’s minds and remind us to concentrate exclusively on economic progress.(这一段衔接前面的观点说明保护环境迫在眉睫,但是在开头建议加多一个更精练的总领全段的主题句。)
The relationship between corporations and natural resources are somewhat similar to that between countries and their colonies. (企业和自然资源的关系在某些方面就跟国家和他们的殖民地一样,然后紧接着就是罗马的例子。这句话相比之下更像是“支持性说理句”,建议在前面加一句“忽视自然资源的合理利用将会让企业付出沉重的代价。”)Rome fell because it tax its colonies extensively and treating them inhumanly. This is due to the greed and desire for power on behalf of the Roman rulers. Sooner or later, the colonies decided to stop tolerating such behavior and revolted. Likewise, if we use this example in the modern world, the current entrepreneurs have often been accused of being greedy of fulfilling their never-ending demands for energy, and sooner or later, they will pay for their mistakes.
In conclusion, what entrepreneur executives should bear in mind is that environmental issues, though can be invisible or expensive to solve, is of paramount importance for them if they want to run a long term business.
总的来说楼主的作文读起来非常流畅,有很多表达值得学习。
不过文章主题论述部分缺少了主题句,所以整体上读起来逻辑和结构不是很清晰,稍微有点说理不清的感觉。
