新gre作文2012:argument42

字號:

GRE寫作部分將重點(diǎn)考察考生有針對性地對具體考題做出反應(yīng)的能力,而非要求考生堆砌泛泛的文字。具體說來,這些重點(diǎn)關(guān)注的能力包括:1、 清楚有效地闡明復(fù)雜觀點(diǎn);2、 用貼切的事理和事例支撐觀點(diǎn);3、考察/驗(yàn)證他人論點(diǎn)及其相關(guān)論證;4、支撐一個(gè)有針對性的連貫的討論;5、控制標(biāo)準(zhǔn)書面英語的各個(gè)要素。寫作部分將聯(lián)合考察邏輯推理和分析寫作兩種技能,并且將加大力度引進(jìn)那些需要考生做出有針對性的回應(yīng)的考題,降低考生依賴事前準(zhǔn)備(如背誦)的材料的可能性。
    The following is a letter to the head of the tourism bureau on the island of Tria.
    "Erosion of beach sand along the shores of Tria Island is a serious threat to our island and our tourist industry. In order to stop the erosion, we should charge people for using the beaches. Although this solution may annoy a few tourists in the short term, it will raise money for replenishing the sand. Replenishing the sand, as was done to protect buildings on the nearby island of Batia, will help protect buildings along our shores, thereby reducing these buildings' risk of additional damage from severe storms. And since beaches and buildings in the area will be preserved, Tria's tourist industry will improve over the long term."
    Write a response in which you discuss what specific evidence is needed to evaluate the argument and explain how the evidence would weaken or strengthen the argument.
     中文翻譯:
    T島海岸的E沙灘的侵蝕對于我們島和我們的旅游業(yè)是個(gè)嚴(yán)重的威脅。為阻止侵蝕,我們應(yīng)該對使用海灘的人收費(fèi)。盡管這一解決方案會(huì)在短期內(nèi)觸怒少量游客,它將會(huì)減少使用海灘的人數(shù)并增加補(bǔ)充沙子的資金。象臨近的Batia島一樣補(bǔ)充沙子將會(huì)有助于對我們沿岸建筑的保護(hù),從而減少這些房屋在大風(fēng)暴中受損的危險(xiǎn)。由于房屋和海灘將會(huì)受到保護(hù),所以T島地區(qū)的旅游業(yè)將會(huì)在長遠(yuǎn)得到發(fā)展。
    寫一篇回應(yīng),討論還需要何種具體的證據(jù)才能更好的評估上面的論證,并解釋這個(gè)證據(jù)是如何強(qiáng)化/削弱這篇文章的論證的。
