篇1:GRE写作issue技巧
GRE写作issue技巧分享
1. 写作宗旨
“老美是一个崇尚自由,个性,创造力,个人能力的国家,所以我们的立题最后也是偏向这一方面。从的出题倾向中可以很明显的感觉到这种偏好。对于很肯定的题目,不要脚踩两只船,要有自己鲜明的观点!(我觉得凭自己的水平是写不好两边都讨好的题目的,所以与其攻其十指,不如伤其一指。)
论点不要重复题目。由于我有时候找不出什么论点了,会把题目的再重复一遍,所以也想提醒一下和自己有相同毛病的g友,不要犯同样的错误。其实有时候可以把题目再读一遍,你就会有新的发现。”
2. 如何审题
“题目中的话说到绝对的,就diagree。比如题目中有这些词的as long as,anything,everything,all,only,我们可以把它们作为一个论点进行攻击,这是很容易找到反例的。我考试的时候就遇到了这样的情况:题目是:Practicality is now our GREat idol,which all powers and talents must serve. Anything that is not obviously practical has little value in today s world.可以看到题目中有三处很绝对的地方(all,anything,little ),一一反驳就是三个论点了。
题目对X.X不满,就agree。这种题目一般很明显的可以察觉到出题者的意图,所以你就跟着他不满。
若有比较,就顺着agree。题目中会出现诸如as...more...than...这样的词,看到了,你也可以顺着他的意思同意。
题目会很明显的提示你从哪些方面来写,比如说:In any realm of life--whether academic,social,business, or political--the only way to succeed is to take a practical,rather than an idealistic,point of view. Pragmatic behavior guarantees survival,whereas idealistic views tend to be superceded by simpler,more immediate options.你可以看到破折号里面的academic,social,business,or political,所以你就跟着他一个个举例子。”
3. 例子
“第一种是经典型:比如说Einstein,Newton,Galileo,Edison这些科学家的例子被用的烂了,不过也不失为好东西。the earth orbiting around the sun;Copernicus,Bruno等等。Picasso,Bill Clinton and Monica Lewinsky,Nixon Watergate等。
第二种是时尚型:为了与众不同,胜人一筹可以找一些新的例子。比如文艺类的,电影Matrix,可以用于arts;the project of Three gorges;High speed railway between Beijing and Shanghai;可以用于政治类的政府决策方面。以及写道Scandal时,Tony Blair和那个倒霉的武器核查专家也可以用。还有Iraq和USA的战争,朝鲜的核弹问题,都可以从不同侧面来分析。
我在准备过程中,每天看看yahoo网站的英语新闻,这样,不但可以了解最新的实事,练练泛读,还可以看到很多现代美语的用法以及一些不知道怎么表达的专业词汇,得益非浅。”
作文引用注意要点
1. 内容与GRE作文范文高度相似
官方说明:“text that is substantially similar to that found in one or more other GRE essay responses.”
每年的GRE考生们,为了更好的准备作文部分,会背诵大量的范围,学习和借鉴其中出彩的表达,但是千万注意,学习好词好句,不代表整段直接照搬到考卷上。
2. 部分句子来源于出版或未出版资料
官方说明:“quoting or paraphrasing,without attribution,language or ideas that appear in published or unpublished sources.”
大家若在一些材料中看到了一些词句并且想要在考试的时候引用,一定要正确的做注释,这一点非常的重要。
3. 观点来自他人
官方说明:“essays that are submitted as work of the examinee when the ideas or words have,in fact,been borrowed from elsewhere or prepared by another person.”
写作时的观点,一定要注意不能是与已存在的论点十分相似的,要基于自己的理解,给出和论点紧密联系的论据以支撑。

GRE写作如何运用简约的方法
(一)举例论证法举例论证法:
简称例证法,是根据需要例举一定的事实来证明观点正确的方法。事实要求充分、确凿、有代表根据性。
例1:(南京艺术学院附属中学有删改)资讯时代是为能运用资讯的人而预备的。那些把一切资料的碎片都当做资讯的人不可能正确的运用资讯;那些把一切有用和无用的东西都往脑袋里塞的人也不可能成功运用资讯。只有对你真正有意义的资料才称得上资其他的都是垃圾,只会让你更加无知。也许我们都有过这样的“超载健忘症”,听完一场毫无意义的演讲,我们不仅没有记住一个字,反而连车停在什么地方都忘了。
问题:文中运用了什么论证方法?起到了怎样的作用?
参考答案:举例论证法。举到了“超载健忘症”的例子。其作用是:证明了滥取资讯的严重后果(危害)
例2、(2006海南省课改试验区有删改)歌德用了差不多半生的精力学画无成,面对人生的不断碰壁,及时调整了人生目标,在文学道路上做出一番成就。孙中山青年时悬壶行医,最后发现治一人并不能救社会,于是转而投身革命,终于成就了令世人敬佩的伟业。无数成功的例子告诉我们,成功者是在不断的实践中发现了成功的道路,并不是一开始就站到了正确的起点上。因此,我们不要盲目地相信自己的兴趣,不要绝对依赖自己的感觉,而要尽可能多地尝试各种各样的发展道路,与时俱进地调整自己的努力方向。(的中心论点是发现自己才能选择正确的道路,才能实现个人的最大价值)
问题:本段用了什么论证方法,作用是什么?
参考答案:举例论证法(例证法)。作用是用该事例论证了成功者是在不断实践的过程中发现成功的道路的,因此我们要在实践中学会尝试各种发展道路,并与时俱进的调整自己的努力方向。举例论证法的作用:事实胜于雄辩,用确凿、典型的事实来证明观点,会增强文章的说服力。
(二)引用论证法引用论证法:
简称引证法,是引用正确的科学原理,马克思主义经典著作中的精辟见解、古今中外的名言警句以及人们认定的定理公式来证明论点。
例1、(2006 随州市有删改)古人说:“尽信书,不如无书”。读书的终极目的,是要把“死”书读活,让书发挥作用。“死”“活”之间,相互为用,相互补充。我们强调读“死” 书,但又不拘泥于读“死”书。“死”与“活”,都是对人而言的。人要书“死”,书就“死”;人要书“活”,书就“活”。这就叫“运用之妙,存乎一心”。善读书者,手中都有一把打开书籍奥秘的金钥匙。书籍是死的,金钥匙却是活的。“死”与“活”的关系,大概有如书籍与金钥匙的关系,我们先要有书籍,然后金钥匙才能发挥作用。只有漂亮的金钥匙,又有什么用处?因此,谈读书,就得先读书。
题目:语段使用了引用论证法,请你把它找出来,并说明它的作用。
参考答案:古人说:“尽信书,不如无书”,作用是引用古语阐明了“死”,“活”之间,不是绝对孤立的,有相互为用,相互补充的关系。作用:用权威性的话语,使说理更加深刻、透彻、具有说服力,着力体现理论的力量和文章的思想深度。
(三)比喻论证法比喻论证法:
简称喻证法,用人们熟知的事物来作比喻证明观点。
(百色市)人生什么事最苦呢?贫吗?不是。失意吗?不是。老吗?死吗?都不是。我说人生最苦的事,莫若身上背着一种未了的责任。人若能知足,虽贫不苦;若能安分(不多作分外希望),虽失意不苦;老、死乃是人生难免的事,达观的人看得很平常,也不算什么苦。独是凡人生在世间一天,便有应该做的事。该做的事没有做完,便像是有几千斤重担压在肩头,再苦是没有的了。为什么呢?因为受那良心责备不过,要逃躲也没处逃躲呀!(这篇文章的中心论点是人生最苦的事,莫若身上背着一种未了的责任。)
问题:这段文字运用了什么论证方法来证明中心论点的?其作用是什么?
参考答案:比喻论证法(喻证法)
“该做的事没有做完,便像是有几千斤重担压在肩头”生动形象地表现出人生最苦的事,莫若身上背着一种未了的责任。比喻论证法的作用:深入浅出,生动形象地证明观点,使观点更为清晰,读者更易理解。
(四)、对比论证法对比论证法:
将一个事物的正反意见或优劣情况进行对照分析来证明论点的方法。
例:(2006江苏省盐城市有删改)陶渊明不为五斗米折腰,李白不摧眉折腰事权贵,顾炎武不做清朝的高官,……古今有志气、有骨气的人,都不以高官厚禄为荣,居下有节,自强不息。他们的高尚品质永远为后世传诵。相反,那些曾荣耀一时、富贵一生的人,现在却早已被时间的长河冲刷得无影无踪了。
问题:这一段除了运用举例论证法之外,还运用了哪种论证方法?其作用是什么?
参考答案:对比论证法,作用是:通过正反对比使论证更加周密,更加深刻。对比论证法的作用:可以使正确与错误对比分明,是非曲直更加明确,给人以鲜明深刻的印象。
篇2:GRE写作argument和issue准备技巧
Argument要求考生分析所给题目,完成一篇驳论文,指出并且有力地驳斥题目中的主要逻辑错误。Argument部分,首先要熟悉每一个题目,找出主要的逻辑错误,也就是Argument题目的提纲,同时每一个逻辑错误准备一套语言套路去说。写完每一个题目的提纲后,写10-15篇完整的文章(语言能力弱的话,可以增加写作量),找partner帮你改,知道错误以后再重写。
有些考生写GRE文章,喜欢用专业性的逻辑用语,其实没有必要,就事论事比较好。在批驳的时候为了显得有力,可以多用用for example、it is possible that、it is likely that之类的句型,因为Argument就是挑错与找茬的过程。如果实在觉得错误不好找,那么就根据每一句话批,基本上,每一个表示原因的句子中都可能存在逻辑错误。
有人认为,Argument背一下错误分类就可以了。但是在实践中这些只是次要的方面,主要的还在于寻找论述者的论据和事实是否对论点做了充分且必要的证明。只有找出他们之间的缺点和不足,文章才会流畅。掌握逻辑的因果关系,更好地把握文章的结论,会写出更漂亮的文章,而不是仅仅的survey、response、data等一些谁都用的东西,无论什么都是越具体越有说服力。
GRE写作Issue模板准备:准备提纲
Issue要求考生根据所给的题目,完成一篇表明立场的逻辑立论文。Issue题库涉及社会、文化、科技、历史、政治、艺术等诸多方面。不同类型的题目有较大差别,但在同一类型的题目中却包含了许多命题方向非常接近的题目。
Issue写作对于论据的要求是非常高的,因此你的名人事例的储备,相关知识量的积累是非常重要的。这一环节也正是GRE考生最为头疼的一部分,举不出支持自己的观点的例子,因此让自己的文章显得只有苍白的论证,缺乏说服力。因此要多读历史,积累例子,尤其关注那些重要的哲学家、科学家、艺术家、政治领袖等人的生平事迹、主要贡献。
例如Issue里的这样一道真题:“Truly profound thinkers and highly creative artists are always out of step with their time and their society。”(真正影响深远的思想家和具有高度创造力的艺术家总是与他们的时代和社会步伐不一致)。这个题目如果没有必备的那些思想家和艺术家的例子,文章必然缺乏说服力。因此读历史积累写作素材,具体说就是论据素材是拿高分的一个重要环节。
另外,写提纲对于Issue部分的备考是至关重要的,也是最占用时间、最核心的一个环节。每一个题目的提纲力求详细,不用去写开头段和结尾段,就写正文各段你的各个分支观点,也就是正文部分的论证过程。除了论证以外,写完后想想可以用些什么论据,把支持论证的论据也写上。
需要强调的是,一定要较为详细地写Issue提纲,否则,在考场如果遇到没有思考过的题目,很容易自乱阵脚,导致失败。此外,题目必须考前按题材分类去写提纲,看懂,知道对立面和大致写作思路。论据往往在同类的很多题目中通用。写完提纲后,再写20-40篇完整的文章(语言能力弱的话,尽量多写)。
GRE写作模板准备难度对比:Issue>Argument
总的来看,Issue难度高于Argument。对于考生来说,Issue比Argument要求拥有更扎实的写作功底和更严密的逻辑思维。同时,ETS对于Issue的模板化和plagiarisms更加敏感。总之,获得Issue高分需要较多的努力。相比之下,Argument内容相对单一(出错的逻辑类型比较少),题目中给了考生更多的提示信息,因此提高Argument成绩容易一些。
参照ETS评过分的范文,我们不难发现:无论Issue还是Argument在评分标准上都有共同之处:第一,观点要有深度,论证要有说服力;第二,组织要有条理,表达清晰准确;第三,语言流利,句式复杂,词汇丰富。这三条说的也就是行文的“思想性”、“结构性”以及“表达性”。众多高分作文的考生大凡都在这三个方面做得很好,我们理所当然也要从这里入手,采取“各个击破”的方法解剖GRE作文的本质,从而得到一个理想分数。
GRE写作计分方式
GRE写作的记分方式是这样的,两篇作文总分都是六分,计算公式为你的得分=(Issue的得分+Argument的得分)/2,最终的计分是以0.5分为一个格。而要获得满意的写作分数,应保证Issue在4.0以上,Argument在5.0以上,这样总分才能在4.5以上。
GRE作文范文:知识的影响
The study of an academic discipline alters the way we perceive the world. After studying the discipline, we see the same world as before, but with different eyes.
GRE作文范文参考:
Ever since the appearance of convenient printing method and huge libraries, modern education became possible. Since then, the process of accumulation of knowledge was greatly accelerated, for mankind's knowledge storation can be developed in a systematic way. Education's function is to prepare our youth for the future by lending them the ability to discover mysteries of the world themselves or from books. The history of the human race gives us the impression that the major benefit we get from the academic training is the ability to perceive the world in different ways.
The most primitive form of education, which helped our ancestors, the cavemen, to survive in the harsh conditions during the pioneering period of human history, already possessed the power to change people's perspective. When a child learnt how to make a fire, he was brought to a brand new world, in which he was no longer the game of wild animals and the weakest creature facing the mightiness of nature. He could better understand and conquer the surroundings; the long winter, might have been one of the dangerous enemies in his eyes, seemed weaker since the fire he made could ensure him the victory. Once we have the ability to harness more power, we regard the nature in new ways; we used to have to adapt to the nature absolutely, however,today we could transform it to certain extends.
It is the coming of science and many other realms that truly and profoundly changed our view of the world. We can see further and deeper, thanks to the inventions of macroscope and microscope. But that is hardly the whole thing the science has presented in front of us. Science, widely taught in every secondary school around the world, not only allows us to see what we couldn't see before, but also allows us to get new information and knowledge from that we could see before. Only when a student finishes his course in basic physics, could he understand why some things are hot while others are cooler, and could he know what happens during the cooling down of a cup of hot water. What we observe does not change; nevertheless, the knowledge we learn from changes because of the new power science gives us. The study of science enables us to learn the truths behind the complex phenomena and to use the truths learnt to serve the mankind.
The study of diverse disciplines not only provides us with the ability to learn more, but also the intentions to think more and seek for the general principles. The study of philosophy, histories, classics, and other disciplines deepens our thoughts rather than broadening our scopes. Let's take philosophy for example, which inspires us to dig more deeply in our thoughts and hones our ability to form a correct judgment of our situations and our worlds. We may encounter the death of others, however, we won't understand the life and the death, were it not for the study of philosophy. We will also get more from the reading of all the good books, which is just like a conversation with the finest men of past centuries. We may not see more, but we inspect more; we may not hear more, but we listen to more. This best demonstrates the power of these disciplines and the value of studying them.
Human, the most intelligent, and rational beings on the Earth, stands in the dominant position of our world for thousands of years. We cannot make the wildest guess at what our world would like without the different realms of our thoughts and the education imparting these treasures to our descendants. Different fields of study give us different perspectives of this world, only when we properly and usefully assimilate the various discoveries in myriad disciplines, could we form a most brilliant picture of our today and of our tomorrow.
GRE作文范文:独立思考
What most human beings really want to attain is not knowledge, but certainty. Gaining real knowledge requires taking risks and keeping the mind open―but most people prefer to be reassured rather than to learn the complex and often unsettling truth about anything.
GRE作文范文参考:
What does most human beings want is not discovery and change but reassurance.Although discoveries and changes are the real impetuses of human civilization, most people prefer reassurance than innovations and changes in that in this world most people are conservative and the discoveries and changes would sometimes harm some ones' benefit, which based on the obsolete systems.
On the one hand, in fact, most people value what they have obtained much more than what would be gain through new ways. This conservative kind of thinking in some sense is very common indeed since trying new ways always means taking risks of losing the present benefit. Take many Chinese workers for example. In China now,during the transformation of economy system, many factories and companies are under the danger of bankruptcy due to their rigid ways of thinking. And the workers in these companies or factories do not have positive attitudes neither. They ignore, or we can say give up, the better chance such as leave the old companies and find a new one which would be more suitable or quite for a short time to study some new skills; but stay where they are to wait for reassurance from the companies or government. the reason for this kind of behaviors is that they are fear for losing the jobs, whish however have little points after all. Simply put, they think they can survive if they keep the salary, but maybe lose everything when taking risks. Actually, these people fail to see the wealth behind changes and discoveries. No pain, no gain. One reluctantly loses something, he/she would not gain more important and valuable.
On the other hand, discoveries and changes would bring new systems and value and moral standards, which would necessarily break the outdated ones. In this sense,discoveries and changes could harm some ones or some classes' benefit. Therefore, it is not difficult to understand the resistance against new things and the preference of reassurance to the obsolete system. The Industry Revolution is just a case in point.
The significant change had brought human beings into a new stage of both material and spirit; but during the revolution, many people hold the point of view that the change is very dangerous to human civilization. Such individuals included peasants,old noble men and some government officials. The fundamental reason for this situation was that such a profound and overall change shook the old social and economy system and thus those depended on such a system felt they were threatened.
For example, the peasants lost their lands and the old noble men lost their taxes from the peasants; even the government officials, were in the fear of losing their positions.Thereby, for the men who would still receive benefit from the obsolete system, they would prefer reassurance than changes and discoveries.
It is true that sometimes changes and discoveries would bring some damage to the present society; yet they would automatically build a new one full of vigor and creativity. So people should not be restrained with the conservative ideas and open their minds to see the future benefit they would gain from the new system built by changes and discoveries. Anyway, new things are always prior to the old ones.

GRE写作高分范文:生动剖析写作
GRE写作题目:
Too much time, money, and energy are spent developing new and more elaborate technology. Society should instead focus on maximizing the use of existing technology for the immediate benefit of its citizens.
GRE写作范文:
I must say that I reject this statement. While it is true that we need to support society as much as possible with current technology, that does not in any way mean that we should stop progressing simply because our current technology cannot handle all the problems we have brought to it. Does that mean that we should simply accept the status quo and make do? No, I don’t think so. To do so would be tantamount to adopting a fatalistic approach; I think most people would reject that.
Technology has helped, and it has hurt. Without it, we would never have our standard of living, nor quality of nutrition, expectation of a long and productive life span, and the unshakable belief that our lives can be made even better. But it has also brought us universal pollution, weapons so powerful as to be capable of rendering us extinct, and the consequent fear for our survival as species and as a planet. Technology is indeed a double-edged sword. And yet, I still have to argue in its favor, because without it, we have no hope.
Some might argue that we would be better off without technology. They might say that a return to a less technologically driven approach to life would have the benefits of reducing stress and allowing us to live simpler, happier lives, like those of our forebears. Such an idea is seductive, so much so that much of art and all of nostalgia are devoted to it. But upon closer inspection, one realizes that such a move would only return us to a life of different kinds of stress, one of false simplicity, one fraught with danger. It would be a life without antibiotics where a minor cut could prove deadly. It would be a life where childbirth is the main killer of women, and where an emergency is dealt with in terms of hours and days instead of minutes and hours; a life where there are no phones or cars or planes or central heating, no proven drug therapies to treat mental illness, no computers. Would this world really make people happy?
What we already have, we have. And since the only way to move is forward, instead of allowing ourselves to be paralyzed by fear and worry, we need to learn how to clean up the pollution we have caused, and how to deal with a world that feeds on weapons and mass destruction. Doing these things means having to move away from technology into a more difficult realm, that of diplomacy and compromise: to move from the bully stance of “I am bigger and better and I have more toys and so I win” to a place where everyone wins.
Technology is the thing that will allow people to do that. But, advanced as it is, it is still in its infancy. We have to allow it to grow up and mature in order to reap the real rewards that it can bring. And there are even greater rewards ahead of us than what the world has already experienced. When technology is pushed to the outer edge, that is where serendipitous discoveries can occur. This has been seen throughout technological advancement, but the easiest example is probably the space program which made us think, really hard, about how to do things in a different environment. It gave us telecommunications, new fabrics and international cooperation. Paramedical devices, so that people can be treated even as they are being transported to the hosptal, are a direct development of that technology. None of this would have happened in the time frame that it did if we had not pushed for technological advancement. If we had decided to “focus on maximizing the use of existing technology” instead of foolishly reaching for the stars, we would not have made those discoveries which now are the bedrock of the 21st century.

GRE作文范文:成功
Success, whether academic or professional, involves an ability to survive in a new environment and, eventually, to change it.
GRE作文范文参考:
Many wonder the intrinsic impact of industrial revolution over the last century. Is it a blessing or a curse? Ever since the invention of steam engine, mass production enabled factories to make out products in a madly efficient manner, while machines also supplanted innumerous traditionally skilled artisan, forcing them out of work. Gone are the days when they boasted of their craftsmanship that they assumed to be able support their family all their life. Consumers became more aspiring to novel design instead of durability as goods were made to be discarded.
Hundreds years later, with the first installation of integrated circuit on the chip, another profound turnover took place. Now the computer pervades our life so much that one may find himself half illiterate in absence of input skill. This time, thousands of jobs were created in Silicon Valley, transforming some of the few into billionaire over one night. Nevertheless, the original inventor might not expect that the ensuing slow down and thus recession in IT sector would approach so soon in less than 10 years, which is obviously less than a presumable 15 years time normal for a periodical change.Positive or negative, one mark that characterizes the technological bombardment indicates a constant fact: changes exist ubiquitously and operating at an ever-increasing tempo; those who fail to catch up with the torrent of change would ineluctably engulfed by billows, floating no where and eventually dissolve as negligible bubbles.
Favors as well as opportunities goes to who adapt to the contemporary trend. Fully recognizing this axiom, long before the scientists announced accomplishment of sketches of human genes or earlier successful cloning of Doris, candidates preparing for university admission have smelt the sense. Today, in the U.S., biology and its branch disciplines become the first choice for top students of senior high, determining that this subject, foretold as the third wave in technology, could bring them brilliant future as “Bill Gates” dreamt the same in the previous wave.
In addition to academic realm, respect would be paid to people who though deprived of their past secure professions, choose not to be a loser in the whimsical society. Like the artisans who lost jobs, a vast number of skilled laborer in China’s city of Wengzhou have undergone darkness and depression in those old days. However, after years of endeavor and refinement, they prove their value again. By accurately posit the economic trend and market demand, they play an active role in almost all economic sectors, garments, catering and lodging, hi-tech industry, you name it.
While ability honed in surviving the fickleness of the world makes the path through success shorter, it is essential for the more ambitious to acquire the pith of reformist and lead the trend. In this way, it could help him distinguish from the mediocracy and platitude. This is absolutely not an easy task. Inborn insight and foresight are needed to tell uncommon out of the commonplace; extraordinary perseverance and encouragement is a must to face the coming challenges against his iconoclasm. Very few people crowned with triumph possess this quality, whether the Nobel Prize winner or those who makes coverage on the Times.
In sum, as shown in the course of history, success, whether academic or professional,involves an ability to surviving in a new environment and---, eventually, ---to change it.Now some elite persons have again forecast that another social change is impending.Are you ready for that?

有人认为,Argument背一下错误分类就可以了。但是在实践中这些只是次要的方面,主要的还在于寻找论述者的论据和事实是否对论点做了充分且必要的证明。只有找出他们之间的缺点和不足,文章才会流畅。掌握逻辑的因果关系,更好地把握文章的结论,会写出更漂亮的文章,而不是仅仅的survey、response、data等一些谁都用的东西,无论什么都是越具体越有说服力。
GRE写作Issue模板准备:准备提纲
Issue要求考生根据所给的题目,完成一篇表明立场的逻辑立论文。Issue题库涉及社会、文化、科技、历史、政治、艺术等诸多方面。不同类型的题目有较大差别,但在同一类型的题目中却包含了许多命题方向非常接近的题目。
Issue写作对于论据的要求是非常高的,因此你的名人事例的储备,相关知识量的积累是非常重要的。这一环节也正是GRE考生最为头疼的一部分,举不出支持自己的观点的例子,因此让自己的文章显得只有苍白的论证,缺乏说服力。因此要多读历史,积累例子,尤其关注那些重要的哲学家、科学家、艺术家、政治领袖等人的生平事迹、主要贡献。
例如Issue里的这样一道真题:“Truly profound thinkers and highly creative artists are always out of step with their time and their society。”(真正影响深远的思想家和具有高度创造力的艺术家总是与他们的时代和社会步伐不一致)。这个题目如果没有必备的那些思想家和艺术家的例子,文章必然缺乏说服力。因此读历史积累写作素材,具体说就是论据素材是拿高分的一个重要环节。
另外,写提纲对于Issue部分的备考是至关重要的,也是最占用时间、最核心的一个环节。每一个题目的提纲力求详细,不用去写开头段和结尾段,就写正文各段你的各个分支观点,也就是正文部分的论证过程。除了论证以外,写完后想想可以用些什么论据,把支持论证的论据也写上。
需要强调的是,一定要较为详细地写Issue提纲,否则,在考场如果遇到没有思考过的题目,很容易自乱阵脚,导致失败。此外,题目必须考前按题材分类去写提纲,看懂,知道对立面和大致写作思路。论据往往在同类的很多题目中通用。写完提纲后,再写20-40篇完整的文章(语言能力弱的话,尽量多写)。
GRE写作模板准备难度对比:Issue>Argument
总的来看,Issue难度高于Argument。对于考生来说,Issue比Argument要求拥有更扎实的写作功底和更严密的逻辑思维。同时,ETS对于Issue的模板化和plagiarisms更加敏感。总之,获得Issue高分需要较多的努力。相比之下,Argument内容相对单一(出错的逻辑类型比较少),题目中给了考生更多的提示信息,因此提高Argument成绩容易一些。
参照ETS评过分的范文,我们不难发现:无论Issue还是Argument在评分标准上都有共同之处:第一,观点要有深度,论证要有说服力;第二,组织要有条理,表达清晰准确;第三,语言流利,句式复杂,词汇丰富。这三条说的也就是行文的“思想性”、“结构性”以及“表达性”。众多高分作文的考生大凡都在这三个方面做得很好,我们理所当然也要从这里入手,采取“各个击破”的方法解剖GRE作文的本质,从而得到一个理想分数。
GRE写作计分方式
GRE写作的记分方式是这样的,两篇作文总分都是六分,计算公式为你的得分=(Issue的得分+Argument的得分)/2,最终的计分是以0.5分为一个格。而要获得满意的写作分数,应保证Issue在4.0以上,Argument在5.0以上,这样总分才能在4.5以上。
以上便是为大家介绍的如何准备GRE写作的方法了,各位考生不要畏惧GRE写作,只要认真准备,想取得高分还是不难的。大家可以参考以上文章来多练笔,从根本上提高自己的写作水平。
GRE作文范例参考
Consciously Reconnecting
There may be times when we feel like our connection to the universe is closed. Maybe things don’t seem to be going well in our day, or our lives, or we may feel out of our element. The truth is, the universe is always there for us. We know that we create our experience with our thoughts, and this is another way we need to make a conscious decision about how we want to experience life. It is up to us to do the work of making the connection, because nobody can do it for us, though sometimes the universe may send us wake-up calls.
You can think of it as getting some fresh air. We are always breathing and the air is always around us, surrounding us, moving through us. But we may need to step outside of where we are in the moment—physically, mentally, or emotionally—and make the conscious choice to take a deep breath in order to feel the air coming in and going out. Whether this means stepping outside physically or merely shifting our thoughts, it is only our perception that changes; the air remains the same.
It is just as easy to reconnect with the universe. Using the same technique as a breath of fresh air, a deep breath can bring us back to our center. As we inhale, we fill our bodies with the oxygen needed to replenish our most basic physical needs, allowing the air to circulate within us. Exhaling, we release the stale, the used, the potentially toxic air, removing any blocks that may keep us from going deeper into the stillness that lies at our center where we connect to the universe. Feeling closed off does not need to be a negative experience. When we become conscious of it, we can think of the wholeness of a closed circuit, which allows electricity to connect and flow properly. Our bodies work the same way, and when we make that connection in our minds, it can help bring us back to the connection we seek.
GRE范文:古迹是否应该要得到保护
[Direction]
Many old building are protected by law because they are part of a nation‘s history. However, some people think knocked down to make way for new ones because people need houses and offices. How important is it to maintain old buildings? Should history stand in the way of progress?
[Example]
Old buildings sometimes conflicts with social advancement. Appealing as it is in the eyes of business people, tearing down old architect to make room for real-estate development is not a wise idea in many ways.
The primarily reason is that old buildings, like our native language, forms our cultural identity and keep a unique record the history of a country. From this aspect, old buildings are considered very valuable as one of the symbols of the culture of a nation. For instance, the traditional Chinese residence in Beijing, Siheyuan, are once seen as the remains of the Old World, and were destroyed by people shortly after the founding of People‘s Republic of China. Until recently did the people and policy makers as well realize that it is an inexcusable and stupid idea to commit such a terrible deed because old buildings, once gone, are not restorable. But their economic values and aesthetic appeals have just caught the attention of Chinese people.
Moreover, old buildings, if planed and preserved properly, could coexist with modern real-estate development. In France, aged buildings bring millions of dollars of revenue for the government and amazed thousands of tourists. Yet no one thinks the high-rising office buildings and apartment buildings make the old architect a sore of the eye. By contrast, the new learn from the old, a fact that makes them more attractive.
We admit that not all old buildings should be treated equally and some of them do need to be torn down for various reasons such as safety and new buildings. However, we should not be too blind to see their value too. If only the real and practical factors are being considered, the country will be sorry for its loss in years to come.
As we have discussed, old buildings are part of a country‘s history and are valuable in many ways. We should plan well and be wise enough to see their value. But the same time, we should also do our best to find solutions to make the old and the new coexist in harmony.
新版GRE写作新题库:Argument
题目:
The following appeared in a magazine article about planning for retirement.
“Clearview should be a top choice for anyone seeking a place to retire, because it has spectacular natural beauty and a consistent climate. Another advantage is that housing costs in Clearview have fallen significantly during the past year, and taxes remain lower than those in neighboring towns. Moreover, Clearview's mayor promises many new programs to improve schools, streets, and public services. And best of all, retirees in Clearview can also expect excellent health care as they grow older, since the number of physicians in the area is far greater than the national average.”
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.
中文翻译:
由于Clearview的天然景色和温和气候,它应该成为那些为退休后寻找生活地的人的首选。另一项好处是,Clearview的房价在去年显著下降,房地产税一直比邻近城市低。而且,Clearview的市长承诺了很多新方案来改学校、街道和公共服务。Clearview的退休人员也可以在老年时享受到出色的医疗服务,因为该地区的医生数量高于全国平均水平。
写一篇回应,讨论还需要何种具体的证据才能更好的评估上面的论证,并解释这个证据是如何强化/削弱这篇文章的论证的。
篇5:GRE写作快速提升issue的论述技巧的几个重点
快速提升issue的论述技巧的几个重点
Issue练习题里的题目,大致可以分为以下四种结构:一、对比型 二、问题解决型 三、推理型 四、观点型
熟练掌握这四种结构的论述方法也就掌握了issue的论述技巧。
举个例子:对比型
分类:对比型的题目分为显现对比和隐形对比
识别:显性对比Some people believe that in order to thrive, a society must put its own overall success before the well-being of its individual citizens. Others believe that the well-being of a society can only be measured by the general welfare of all its people. 隐形对比 More...than less...thanA rather than B Instead of B,A
如何展开论述A:找到对比双方,明确作者立场B:分析对比双方的利弊优劣C:对比双方是否可比
例题讲解:Governments should focus on solving the immediate problems of today rather than on trying to solve the anticipated problems of the future.
对比双方:solving the immediate problems of today VS solve the anticipated problems of the future
分析对比双方的利弊优劣:
solving the immediate problems of today (+): 举例solving the immediate problems of today (-) :举例
solve the anticipated problems of the future (+) :举例solve the anticipated problems of the future (-) :举例
对比双方是否可比:今天问题和将来问题不是二元对立的存在,两者相互影响相互转化,今天问题处理不善可能会给将来造成风险隐患,而随着时间的推移,将来问题也会不断转化为今天的问题。
按照这个步骤处理,这篇文的逻辑框架就有了,接下来就是往里面加料了。以上就是今天的分享,希望对同学们有所帮助,祝各位同学早日出分!
GRE issue写作优秀实例:独立思考
题目:
What most human beings really want to attain is not knowledge, but certainty. Gaining real knowledge requires taking risks and keeping the mind open―but most people prefer to be reassured rather than to learn the complex and often unsettling truth about anything.
大多人真正想要得到的不是知识而是结论。获得真正的知识需要冒险和不停歇的思考――但是大多数人更愿意获得确定的答案而不是去学习复杂而不确定的真理。
正文:
What does most human beings want is not discovery and change but reassurance.Although discoveries and changes are the real impetuses of human civilization, most people prefer reassurance than innovations and changes in that in this world most people are conservative and the discoveries and changes would sometimes harm some ones' benefit, which based on the obsolete systems.
On the one hand, in fact, most people value what they have obtained much more than what would be gain through new ways. This conservative kind of thinking in some sense is very common indeed since trying new ways always means taking risks of losing the present benefit. Take many Chinese workers for example. In China now,during the transformation of economy system, many factories and companies are under the danger of bankruptcy due to their rigid ways of thinking. And the workers in these companies or factories do not have positive attitudes neither. They ignore, or we can say give up, the better chance such as leave the old companies and find a new one which would be more suitable or quite for a short time to study some new skills; but stay where they are to wait for reassurance from the companies or government. the reason for this kind of behaviors is that they are fear for losing the jobs, whish however have little points after all. Simply put, they think they can survive if they keep the salary, but maybe lose everything when taking risks. Actually, these people fail to see the wealth behind changes and discoveries. No pain, no gain. One reluctantly loses something, he/she would not gain more important and valuable.
On the other hand, discoveries and changes would bring new systems and value and moral standards, which would necessarily break the outdated ones. In this sense,discoveries and changes could harm some ones or some classes' benefit. Therefore, it is not difficult to understand the resistance against new things and the preference of reassurance to the obsolete system. The Industry Revolution is just a case in point.
The significant change had brought human beings into a new stage of both material and spirit; but during the revolution, many people hold the point of view that the change is very dangerous to human civilization. Such individuals included peasants,old noble men and some government officials. The fundamental reason for this situation was that such a profound and overall change shook the old social and economy system and thus those depended on such a system felt they were threatened.
For example, the peasants lost their lands and the old noble men lost their taxes from the peasants; even the government officials, were in the fear of losing their positions.Thereby, for the men who would still receive benefit from the obsolete system, they would prefer reassurance than changes and discoveries.
It is true that sometimes changes and discoveries would bring some damage to the present society; yet they would automatically build a new one full of vigor and creativity. So people should not be restrained with the conservative ideas and open their minds to see the future benefit they would gain from the new system built by changes and discoveries. Anyway, new things are always prior to the old ones.
GRE issue写作优秀实例:道德与法律
题目:
Many problems of modern society cannot be solved by laws and the legal system because moral behavior cannot be legislated.
现代社会的很多问题是法律和立法系统无法解决的,因为道德行为是无法用法律约束的。
正文:
The proposition asserts that the laws and the legal system cannot resolve many problems problem of the modern society since moral behavior cannot be legislated. In my point of view, I fundamentally agree with the speaker, as discussed below.
First of all, I concede that the laws and the legal system are essential to the modern society and they can resolve many problems. Common sense tells us that everyone has his own position and behavior, depending on their beliefs, experiences, knowledge, professions and emotional concern.However, we cannot simply let everyone do everything that he or she wants, since this will lead to mess and may harm the stability of the society. Thus, the government has to announce the laws and build a just legal system to restrict the citizens. Only by doing this, can the society get to a balance and harmonious status? For instance, the industrial factories want to expel the polluted water into the river without making it clean. If there is not a law or a legal system to restrict the factories from expelling the polluted water, the poisoned water may get into the river, even the sea. This will be really harmful. It may firstly kill the animals living in the river, it may also further harm the human beings if they have drunk the water or eaten the polluted fish. It may bring damage to the environment as well. Considering this, we have to establish laws to prevent the factories from expelling polluted water and other detriments. From this case, we can see how important laws and legal systems are.
However, we have to admit that the laws and the legal systems cannot resolve many problems in the modern society as well, such as the usage of euthanasia, the homosexual marriage. When the Watson and Crick found the double-helix structure of the gene and the scientists further found the way to clone. It brings many social problems that the laws and legal systems cannot resolve. Should the scientists clone human beings? If yes, then what is the relationship between the two? Do the cloned people have the same right with the other human being or even whether they are human beings or not? Though the legal systems in many countries ban the scientists from cloning people, some scientists still do this secretly. All these questions cannot simply be resolved by the laws as it is related to the morality.
Additionally, the laws can not involve the moral behavior. If the laws consider the moral behaviors too much, it will lose justice. Nevertheless, only considering the laws without morals may cause mistake. For instance, in India, their law is statutes given by the government and the judge can only his judges on the bases of the existing laws. Once, a mother in India killed her son,who is a murderer and did lots of bad things. The police in India tried to catch him for years without any result. He committed so many crimes that even death cannot atone for the offence.His mother knows that her son will kill many more people if she does not kill him. Thus, when her son came back to see her one day, she killed him with the poison. In this case, to kill the mother is probably not the best choice, since this may make people think that being just is wrong. But according to the present law, the judger had to sentenced the mother to death, and this brought a widely debate thought out the country.
Further, only the morality can make people to understand what is right and what is wrong, and to restrict people with morality will be a good way. Under the pressure of laws and legal systems,many people just do the bad thing secretly because they do not know that they are wrong. And many people may even think that the laws are wrong and disobey or even resist the law. They may commit crimes again after they are punished. Only when a people have known the morality and find the right measurement to distinguish right and wrong, they can find their mistakes and become a better person. A statistics involving many prisons in China find that the prisoners who learn morality and know their mistakes have a much lower rate of committing crime again.
In the final analysis, we can see that the laws and legal system cannot resolve all the problems in the society and therefore we should agree with the author.
篇6:gre写作满分技巧推荐
gre写作满分技巧推荐
gre写作技巧I.意见是最重要的
新的gre写作不同于大多数英语写作能力。GRE作文考查你的观点和逻辑思维能力,而大部分英语写作都是关于语言能力的。在GRE中,这种思维能力分为争论和争论。在辩论中,我们需要在两分钟内找出原文中所有潜在的逻辑缺陷和推理问题。我们应该错误地发现和反思这些内容。这个问题有11个类别,如教育、行为主义、媒体和政治。GRE考试的官方要求是,考生可以对这些题目提出深入的分析和讨论,并据此提出自己的看法和意见。最困难的一点是,你必须给出适当的例子,这要求你在日常生活中积累更多,准备更多。最好的例子是:西方的道,避免使用太中国化的例子。
GRE写作技巧2。语言需要保证
提高你扎实运用英语的能力。尽管gre写作考试要求相对较高的语言难度,但你做不到。首先,考生必须使用学术写作的方法,而不是口头表达。第二,整句与分句相结合,就是短句与长句交替出现,不显得空洞乏味。最后,避免重复单词和背诵更多的同义词。相同的词可以用同义词代替。语言进步的过程是漫长的,但是对于那些没有足够时间准备考试的学生来说,现在他们恐怕是本末倒置了。最后,准备一些模板,但这个模板不是供你在网上下载的,而是复制自己的模板。
GRE写作技巧3。逻辑结构是关键
由于学术写作的特殊性,文章的严密逻辑是评分的关键,逻辑结构可以分为段落内的逻辑结构和段落间的逻辑结构。我建议整篇文章应该用总分和总分的结构来写。同时,该款还应采用总分和总分的结构,使文章严谨完整。gre写作技巧,gre考试有什么用也就是说,首先要有话题设置,然后要跟上支撑设置,支撑设置也要有设计设置的支撑。另外,要学会如何熟练正确地使用连词,如hower,so,because等,因为你文章中的连词会直接影响你的写作总分,请记住。
GRE写作技巧4。在实践中寻找灵感
对于GRE写作来说,日常练习是必不可少的。只有通过不断的练习,才能把平时积累的好句子、好词汇运用到实践中去。通过长期实践,我们可以灵活运用GRE考试。同时,平时的做法也可以提高我们的写作灵感,快速提取出作者从试题中提出的目的,可以保证自己的写作不会脱题,因此写作水平的提高不是一蹴而就的,而是一个从量变到质变的过程。
GRE写作技巧5。养成良好的态度
广大考生要充分利用好模考,把模考当成真正的GRE考试,不仅能考出自己以前的复习成绩,还能查到空缺,补上空缺。最重要的是在模拟考试中调整心态,用正常的心态去应对。良好的态度也是决定考试成绩的关键因素。
GRE Issue写作思路:辩证思考的逻辑
本文重点讲的是Issue的写法,培养辩证思考的逻辑。它问你是否同意一个观点。你需要表明自己的态度:批判性思考,不一定是绝对的对错,要从两个或多个方面来考虑。
论证思路一般是,题目问A好还是B好。那么我需要分析A的优势,再分析B的优势,之后我需要给出自己的倾向性。最后结论重申自己的观点。
正面论述:To support
展开方式
1、例子展开
2、道理论证
反面论述:To Argue Against
展开方式
1、例子展开
2、道理论证
结论:重申自己的观点
段落展开有两种方式:例子展开和道理论证
举例子:某人,做了某事,得到了某个结果。
值得注意的是,GRE写作中不建议用身边的人来举例。因此更建议用道理论证的方式进行展开。为什么用道理论证的方式更好?首先GRE考试是逻辑考试,考查你的逻辑能力,如果你的逻辑链条非常好,你可以把自己的逻辑展得很开很细。另一方面,虽然你可以举例子展开,但是很多例子你用中文可能都很难展开,更不用说英文。这时候用举例子就会有些舍本逐末,准备时间有限,而你还要花时间去准备例子就会有些得不偿失。
GRE Issue写作思路逻辑链条举例
例题讲解
82.Colleges and universities should require their students to spend at least one semester studying in a foreign country.
托福考试中不在乎逻辑:用交朋友、新文化+语言学习,再来一个让步就可以。
但是从GRE的角度,上面的逻辑就有问题。去国外学习可以交朋友,那么是说在国内学习就交不到朋友吗?出国可以学习语言和文化,那么在国内就学习不到语言和文化吗?还有很多同学喜欢写让步,但这里是有误区的。我认为让步段落是可以写的,但是在论证过程中并没有什么营养,只是凑字数,完成一篇文章而已。
你之前以为的让步段落是这样的:
提问:你觉得要不要爬珠穆朗玛峰啊?
答:要!
理由一:锻炼身体(嗯,是的,挺好的。)
理由二:可以帮助我更好地交朋友(行吧,也许对你来说只有在户外的时候才能交到一些特别好的驴友。)
让步:我承认爬珠穆朗玛峰有很大的风险,可能会因此丧失生命,就算没有丧命,但也可能因此落下病根。(让步)但是对于前面所说的两个好处来说,我觉得爬珠穆朗玛峰依然值得。(谁信啊?)
用上面这个思路去写Issue,应该不会拿到太好的分数。说回刚才的题目,我们可以这样写。
首先有一个introduction,“我的观点是……”
INTRO:
It is argued in the statement that … ,有一定的benefits,but not a requirement!
Study overseas
1.personal development: academically vs professionally: 1. different countries = different cultures = Disparity in education concepts and systems = disparity in academic researches = students with new perspective + innovative know-how / knowledge; 2 professionally:global citizen = working & researching cooperate with people different cultural background = team work = cultural tolerance = immersion in the country = one good way = one semester in foreign countries.
NOT study overseas
1.problems = exposed to a new cultural / social environment: cultural tolerance vs cultural shock: on the one hand, culture shock frustrates students = not focusing too much on the studying but struggling with the cultural issues every day = loss of orientation; on the other hand, exposure to so many new interesting and exotic events, not focusing on studying but going for fun for most of the time, even try drugs / violence and other things they might not think of in homeland.
2.University should require??? free will vs obligation = require = ignorance of the personal willingness = might not be interested = waste of time and effort, especially great financial burden for either the university or the students. IF Universities sponsor the oversea studies =students not getting the expected result = waste of limited resources; IF students self finance = expensive + the results not ensured. SO University create the system to ensure the possibility, provide relevant offerings but not set a requirement for the the students = unfair.
每个部分都有一个逻辑链条。
篇7:gre写作issue与argument的异同
gre写作 issue与argument的异同
gre写作两篇作文相同点
虽然gre作文argument和issue有很多不同之处,但在一些基本的规范和要求上还是有共通之处的:
1. 文章基本要求相同
gre两篇作文的考试时间都是30分钟。考生需要在30分钟内完成从审题到构思到最后成文的整个流程。而两篇文章的文体风格也基本相同,都是属于议论文性质的写作。因此,很多考生比较惧怕的描述类文章就不会有所涉及了。同时,虽然gre考试本身并没有做出任何字数方面的限制和要求,但根据历年来的高分范文总结,一般作文字数在400-500字左右是比较稳妥的,这一点ISSUE和ARGUMENT两篇作文也没有太大区别。
2. 文章评分标准相同
除了规范要求外,gre两篇作文在评分标准上也是基本相同的。大致都可以分为文章整体结构、逻辑思维能力、对于词句语法的运用以及论据素材的使用这几个方面。当然,由于两篇文章本身具体写作要求的区别,可能在一些评分细节上还存在不同。
3. 官方复习资源相同
无论是ISSUE作文还是ARGUMENT作文,两篇gre作文的复习资源也是基本相同的。除了官方公布的作文练习题外,高分范文、黄金词句和论据素材都是帮助考生练习写作能力锻炼作文水平需要用到的复习必备材料。
gre写作两篇作文不同点
说完了相似之处,接下来小编为大家介绍一下两篇作文的不同之处:
1. 写作具体要求区别
gre ISSUE作文的写作要求,大体相当于中文里的立论文,也就是根据作文题目给出的内容自己确定一个论点观点后搭框架写文章。而与之相对的ARGUMENT,则是驳论性质的文章,需要考生根据给出的题目和观点进行反驳,也就是通俗意义上的挑错。
2. 写作难度有所不同
对于并非英语母语的中国考生来说,ISSUE作文的难度是比较高的,因为写好立论文需要考生自己根据题目提炼观点,如果考生本身的自主思维能力和创造力比较一般,很有可能出现不知道如何找观点写文章的情况。而且不少考生存在缺乏主动思考能力的问题,对于写作比较被动,很容易就会写偏题。而ARGUMENT作文则相对简单一些,考生只需要根据给出的内容找逻辑漏洞和问题,并针对这些问题攻击挑错就能完成写作任务,更容易找到写作思路。
3. 复习方法花费时间不同
ISSUE作文需要花费更多的时间用于复习,理由上文已经说过,中国考生大多更难写好ISSUE,因此练习的时间也会因此增加。而复习ISSUE作文的重点,应该放在准备作文模板和练习快速列提纲搭框架之上。考生看gre备考资料备考资料等复习资料时,也应该更加着眼于从文章题目的整体出发,把握住题目的主旨,提炼好观点节省考试时间。
ARGUMENT作文难度较低,需要的复习时间也比较少。而复习ARGUMENT,考生则应该把注意力更多地集中在根据官方练习题学习找逻辑漏洞进行攻击的具体写法上。因为哪怕题目千变万化,但能够用以攻击反驳的逻辑问题其实就那么固定的几种,大家只要练熟了找茬的本领学会了写作套路,想要写好ARGU并不困难。同时,考生在学习gre作文备考资料时,对于ARGU部分的备考资料,从文章细节漏洞等角度入手会收获更好的复习效果。
GRE写作高分范文:批判性思维
Too much time, money, and energy are spent developing new and more elaborate technology. Society should instead focus on maximizing the use of existing technology for the immediate benefit of its citizens.
I must say that I reject this statement. While it is true that we need to support society as much as possible with current technology, that does not in any way mean that we should stop progressing simply because our current technology cannot handle all the problems we have brought to it. Does that mean that we should simply accept the status quo and make do? No, I don’t think so. To do so would be tantamount to adopting a fatalistic approach; I think most people would reject that.
Technology has helped, and it has hurt. Without it, we would never have our standard of living, nor quality of nutrition, expectation of a long and productive life span, and the unshakable belief that our lives can be made even better. But it has also brought us universal pollution, weapons so powerful as to be capable of rendering us extinct, and the consequent fear for our survival as species and as a planet. Technology is indeed a double-edged sword. And yet, I still have to argue in its favor, because without it, we have no hope.
Some might argue that we would be better off without technology. They might say that a return to a less technologically driven approach to life would have the benefits of reducing stress and allowing us to live simpler, happier lives, like those of our forebears. Such an idea is seductive, so much so that much of art and all of nostalgia are devoted to it. But upon closer inspection, one realizes that such a move would only return us to a life of different kinds of stress, one of false simplicity, one fraught with danger. It would be a life
without antibiotics where a minor cut could prove deadly. It would be a life where childbirth is the main killer of women, and where an emergency is dealt with in terms of hours and days instead of minutes and hours; a life where there are no phones or cars or planes or central heating, no proven drug therapies to treat mental illness, no computers. Would this world really make people happy?
What we already have, we have. And since the only way to move is forward, instead of allowing ourselves to be paralyzed by fear and worry, we need to learn how to clean up the pollution we have caused, and how to deal with a world that feeds on weapons and mass destruction. Doing these things means having to move away from technology into a more difficult realm, that of diplomacy and compromise: to move from the bully stance of “I am bigger and better and I have more toys and so I win” to a place where everyone wins.
Technology is the thing that will allow people to do that. But, advanced as it is, it is still in its infancy. We have to allow it to grow up and mature in order to reap the real rewards that it can bring. And there are even greater rewards ahead of us than what the world has already experienced. When technology is pushed to the outer edge, that is where serendipitous discoveries can occur. This has been seen throughout technological advancement, but the easiest example is probably the space program which made us think, really hard, about how to do things in a different environment. It gave us telecommunications, new fabrics and international cooperation. Paramedical devices, so that people can be treated even as they are being transported to the hosptal, are a direct development of that technology. None of this would have happened in the time frame that it did if we had not pushed for technological advancement. If we had decided to

(在第三段驳论的基础上进一步立论)What we already have, we have. And since the only way to move is forward, instead of allowing ourselves to be paralyzed by fear and worry, we need to learn how to clean up the pollution we have caused, and how to deal with a world that feeds on weapons and mass destruction. Doing these things means having to move away from technology into a more difficult realm, that of diplomacy and compromise: to move from the bully stance of “I am bigger and better and I have more toys and so I win” to a place where everyone wins.
第五段:
Technology is the thing that will allow people to do that. (指出支持观点存在的一点不足)But, advanced as it is, it is still in its infancy. (解决方案)We have to allow it to grow up and mature in order to reap the real rewards that it can bring. And there are even greater rewards ahead of us than what the world has already experienced. When technology is pushed to the outer edge, that is where serendipitous discoveries can occur. This has been seen throughout technological advancement, but the easiest example is probably the space program which made us think, really hard, about how to do things in a different environment. It gave us telecommunications, new fabrics and international cooperation. Paramedical devices, so that people can be treated even as they are being transported to the hospital, are a direct development of that technology. None of this would have happened in the time frame that it did if we had not pushed for technological advancement. If we had decided to “focus on maximizing the use of existing technology” instead of foolishly reaching for the stars, we would not have made those discoveries which now are the bedrock of the 21st century.

GRE写作高分范文:名人观点
When famous people give their opinions, many people listen. Should we pay attention to those remarks?
When Tom Cruise once appeared in a TV program, he was too excited so he jumped up and down the couch. Later “jump the couch” was adopted in the American dictionary for slang. This is a bit exaggerating, but it definitely reflects the fact that when famous people give their opinions, many people listen. But, should we pay attention to these remarks or actions?
Firstly, famous people are “famous”, for they have one or few aspects that exceed common people. Like Albert Einstein once said, “I think and think for months, for years, ninety-nine times the conclusion false, but the hundredth time I am right.” As a brilliant scientist, he speaks of the right attitudes towards science and inspires countless people to fight for the truth. Hollywood actors or actresses, they may talk about their dressing styles or skin cares on magazine. These are all advice that we might as well take, for real life is not just serious academic things but also the satisfaction of living.
But the point is that, celebrities are not perfect role models for the public. Once I heard a story about Einstein, saying that he nearly got into the water when he once harassed a young lady and got refused when they were in a boat in a park. Is Einstein evil somehow? No! He’s just being human. Then is it wrong to harass ladies? Yes. But all humans make mistakes. Celebrities are experts in certain areas but not all. In some other fields, they should even learn from us.
Generally, there are two extremes when talking about celebrities: the public are either too critical or too superstitious. Objectively, both of the attitudes are unnecessary. As a Chinese saying which generalizes this situation the best goes: to take in the good, while to get rid of the bad.
