GRE寫作部分將重點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，這些重點關(guān)注的能力包括：1、 清楚有效地闡明復(fù)雜觀點；2、 用貼切的事理和事例支撐觀點；3、考察/驗證他人論點及其相關(guān)論證；4、支撐一個有針對性的連貫的討論；5、控制標(biāo)準(zhǔn)書面英語的各個要素。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。
On the other hand, it is important not to take this assertion about artistic and scientific
accomplishment too far. Students of the arts, for instance, must learn theories and techniques,
which they then apply to their craft whether music performance, dance, or acting. And,
creative writing requires the cognitive ability to understand how language is used and how to
communicate ideas. Besides, creative ability is itself partly a function of intellect; that is,
creative expression is a marriage of one's cognitive abilities and the expression of one's
feelings and emotions. In literature, for example, a rich life experience from which to draw
ideas is just as crucial to great achievement as imagination. For example, many critics laud
Mark Twam's autobiography, which he wrote on his death bed, as his most inspired work. And,
while the direction and goals of scientific research rely on the imaginations of key individuals,
most scientific discoveries and inventions come about not by sudden epiphanies of youthful
star-gazers but rather by years and years of trial-and-error in corporate research laboratories.
In sum, imagination can serve as an important catalyst for artistic creativity and scientific
invention. Yet, experience can also play a key role; in fact, in literature and in science it can
play just as key a role as the sort of imagination that inexperience breeds.

"In any given field, the leading voices come from people who are motivated not by conviction
but by the desire to present opinions and ideas that differ from those held by the majority."

I agree with the statement insofar as our leading voices tend to come from people whose
ideas depart from the status quo. However, I do not agree that what motivates these
iconoclasts is a mere desire to be different; in my view they are driven primarily by their
personal convictions. Supporting examples abound in all areas of human endeavor-- including
politics, the arts, and the physical sciences.
When it comes to political power, I would admit that a deep-seated psychological need to be
noticed or to be different sometimes lies at the heart of a person's drive to political power and
fame. For instance, some astute presidential historians have described Clinton as a man
motivated more by a desire to be great than to accomplish great things. And many
psychologists attribute Napoleon's and Mussolini's insatiable lust for power to a so-called
"short-man complex"--a need to be noticed and admired in spite of one's small physical
stature.
Nevertheless, for every leading political voice driven to new ideas by a desire to be noticed
or to be different, one can cite many other political leaders clearly driven instead by the
courage of their convictions. Iconoclasts Mahatma Gandhi and Martin Luther King, for example,
secured prominent places in history by challenging the status quo through civil disobedience. 感謝您閱讀《GRE作文范文大全（34） 》一文，出國留學(xué)網(wǎng)(liuxue86.com)編輯部希望本文能幫助到您。
