Thesis 總論點 |
The reading provides three functions of ceramic plates. |
Refute the three explanations mentioned in reading passage. |
Sub-point 1 分論點1 |
Cooking pans. |
the cooking pan will be black or the color will fade because of high temperature. However, these plates do not show such marks. |
Sub-point2 分論點2 |
drums. |
the sound of ceramic is not pleasant and also hard to make sounds. What’s more, people can use better material as drums, such as animal furs. Why would they use ceramic drums? |
Sub-point 3 分論點3 |
mirrors. |
the sound of ceramic is not pleasant. What’s more, people can use better material as drums, such as animal furs. Why would they use ceramic drums? |
Sample answer:
The reading and listening materials have a conflict of opinions about the function of ceramic plates. The writer puts forwards three theories, which are contradicted by the following lecture.
Firstly, the writer claims that the ceramic plates can be used as cooking pans. while the speaker views this issue from an opposite angle. According to him/her, the cooking pan will be black or the color will fade because of high temperature. However, these plates do not show such marks.
Secondly, the author states that the ceramic plates can be served as drums. However，the speaker opposes the writer’s opinion by saying that the sound of ceramic is not pleasant. What’s more, people can use better material as drums, such as animal furs. Why would they use ceramic drums?
Thirdly， the passage argues that ceramic plates are used as mirrors. By contrast, in accordance with the speaker, the reading’s claim doesn’t hold water，only when ceramic plates are filled with water can they reflect images. In this case, people can not see the decorative side. Unlike the mirrors in ancient Greek， people often hold plates vertically.
In conclusion, the professor clearly identifies the weakness in the reading passage and convincingly shows these reasons are incorrect.

這是一道常規(guī)的價值判斷的題目。同學(xué)們可以對于學(xué)歷史課程進(jìn)行簡單的利弊分析，如果想不出互斥的三個分論點，可以采取讓步的觀點。一方面可以使文章更加有充實，另一方面也可以體現(xiàn)出考生的辯證思維。 |
寫作指導(dǎo)： |
Agree 1. 學(xué)習(xí)歷史豐富學(xué)生文化方面的背景知識，拓寬眼界。 2. 學(xué)習(xí)歷史也有跨學(xué)科的價值，比如文學(xué)以及考古專業(yè)。 3. 誠然， 學(xué)習(xí)歷史對于其他專業(yè)的學(xué)生增加了很多額外的學(xué)業(yè)負(fù)擔(dān)，需要花很多時間去背誦記憶歷史事件，還要在忙碌的期末考試之前多復(fù)習(xí)一門科目。但是我們的目光不能太狹隘，從長遠(yuǎn)來看學(xué)習(xí)歷史課程的利遠(yuǎn)大于弊。 |
范文指導(dǎo)： |
Being the cradles of knowledge, universities courses lay an extremely solid foundation for the future development of college students. In order to help students better informed about country’s past, some educators claim that history courses should be made compulsory to all university students. Personally, I agree. Firstly, taking history courses provides students with great opportunities to see the world’s glorious and profound culture. By getting a closer look at the American revolution, a student can be enlightened, knowing the importance of equality and democracy. By learning about the history of renaissance, a student will be inspired by the core concept of humanism and precursors’ innovative spirit in terms of painting, sculpture and architecture. By understanding the four great inventions of ancient China, a student will be familiar with the traditional arts. If they only focus on their own major, they would definitely miss out on such great treasure。 Secondly，taking history courses promotes other subjects. Imagine a literature student. His transcript was dissatisfying in the past. However, things became to change after he took the history seminar. For one thing, celebrated individuals in ancient times inspired his writing. These celebrities’ qualities and achievements have a great influence on his works. For another, Comprehending the historical events, he became more insightful and thoughtful. It seems clear to me that it is the history courses that enable this student to make a great progress. Admittedly，history courses, to some extent, exert more academic pressure on students. On the one hand, College students have already had to study many theories and professional subjects closely related to their majors. In this case, taking history courses makes their schedules tighter. On the other hand, A required histories courses would put extra financial burden on students, especially on those students who are from underprivileged families. However, this view is too nearsighted. In the long run, the benefits of taking history courses far outweigh its demerits. Just as an old Chinese saying goes, taking history as a mirror, one can judge the things form their pros and cons. Based on the above analysis, taking history courses benefits students a lot. |
