【老雅范文】12月2日雅思真题写作解析及范文-老建筑应该被拆除吗？

题目

People think that old buildings should be knocked down and give way to the new buildings. Do you agree or disagree? How important are old buildings to us?

解析

本周雅思作文是关于老建筑物的价值及其是否该拆除，这是个绝对的老题，老雅在雅思写作教学和讲座中曾多次以本题为例讲雅思写作的基本思路。

那么城市中的老建筑物是否应该拆除？可能有些同学会用一边倒的思维方式来思考这个题目，认为不应该拆除老建筑物，因为这些建筑物有历史和文化价值，应该保留。这个思路不错，但接下去怎么写呢？这些同学可能就开始懵圈了，因为实在很难找到保留老建筑物的其他理由了。其实，如果打开思路，我们就会发现，对某些人来说，城市里的老建筑物是应该拆除的，因为抛开历史文化价值，这些老建筑物的确没有实用价值，它们占据着城市的有限空间，既不能居住，也不能为我们的生活提供任何便利，同时维护不好的话，还可能给居民带来危险。因此，就本题而言，我们可以开始论述应该拆除老建筑物的理由，然后再论述保留老建筑物的理由（同时回答老建筑物对我们的重要意义），最后得出结论：保留老建筑物也许并不能给我们带来实际的生活好处，但其历史和文化价值是不能忽略的。

Every city has old buildings. Now the question is: how to deal with these old buildings? Some people think they should be pulled down and replaced with new ones, while others believe they should be preserved and protected.

There are a host of reasons why the urban old buildings should be removed. To start with, the old buildings are no longer suitable for people to live in, therefore they should be destroyed and give way to new buildings so that people, especially young people in the cities have more living spaces. Secondly, the old buildings can cause inconveniences for the city dwellers. Since there is not a direct route through the old buildings, people sometimes have to go to and off work by making a long detour around them, and in this way much of their time is wasted. Finally, the old buildings may give rise to safety problems. More than 100 people, for example, are killed or injured each year in my city, just because of the collapse of some ancient buildings.

Yet old buildings - at least some of them - are significant historically and culturally, and hence should be protected from being destroyed for any reason. They deserve to be well-kept and preserved because they carry some important messages about the city or the whole nation. The Summer Palace, for instance, is a perfect reminder of how the imperial family in the Qing Dynasty in feudal China were living and hence has great cultural significance. Such old buildings, if well preserved, can become tourist spots and attract thousands of visitors from all over the world.

We all need a memory of our past. Many old buildings do have historical and cultural value which tells us who we were. We need to take good care of these buildings and keep them as long as possible so that they can tell the stories of the city or the nation to the future generation. Of course, those old buildings with little value ought to be pulled down, especially when they pose safety problems to people.

Every city has old buildings. Now the question is: how to deal with these old buildings? Some people think they should be pulled down and replaced with new ones, while others believe they should be preserved and protected.

每个城市都有老建筑。现在的问题是：如何处理这些老建筑？有些人认为他们应该被推倒，用新建筑取而代之，而另一些人则认为它们应该得到保留和保护。

（1）本段为引入段：本次范文的引入段比较直接，用问答开始。

（2）Pull down 推到 （本文还使用了remove, destroy来表达相似的意思）

（3）Replace 取代 （后面接by和with都可以）

（4）Preserve 保留 （注意区分reserve, conserve）

There are a host of reasons why the urban old buildings should be removed. To start with, the old buildings are no longer suitable for people to live in, therefore they should be destroyed and give way to new buildings so that people, especially young people in the cities have more living spaces. Secondly, the old buildings can cause inconveniences for the city dwellers. Since there is not a direct route through the old buildings, people sometimes have to go to and off work by making a long detour around them, and in this way much of their time is wasted. Finally, the old buildings may give rise to safety problems. More than 100 people, for example, are killed or injured each year in my city, just because of the collapse of some ancient buildings.

城市老建筑应该被拆除，这有众多原因。首先，老建筑不再适合人们居住，因此，它们应该被摧毁，并让位于新建筑，这样城里的人们（尤其是年轻人）才有更多的居住空间。其次，旧建筑会给城市居民带来不便。因为没有穿过旧建筑的直路，人们有时不得不绕过它们走很长的路去上下班，这样就浪费了他们很多时间。最后，老建筑物可能引发安全问题。例如，在我的城市，每年有超过100人因为一些老建筑倒塌而死亡或受伤。

(1) 本段论述老建筑物应该被拆除的三个理由：住房空间问题；行路不方便问题；安全问题。每一论点后面都用一句话来论证。

(2) A host of 众多

(3) Remove 移除

(4) Give way to 让位于......

(5) Inconvenience 不便

(6) City dweller 城市居民

(7) Route 路线

(8) Make a detour 绕道而行

(9) Give rise to 引发

(10) Collapse 倒塌 （n.）

Yet old buildings - at least some of them - are significant historically and culturally, and hence should be protected from being destroyed for any reason. They deserve to be well-kept and preserved because they carry some important messages about the city or the whole nation. The Summer Palace, for instance, is a perfect reminder of how the imperial family in the Qing Dynasty in feudal China were living and hence has great cultural significance. Such old buildings, if well preserved, can become tourist spots and attract thousands of visitors from all over the world.

然而，古老的建筑——至少其中一些——在历史和文化上都是重要的，因此应该保护免遭任何理由的破坏。它们值得妥善保存和保存，因为它们携带了城市或国家的一些重要信息。比如，颐和园能很好地提醒我们，封建中国的清代皇家是如何生活的，因此具有重要的文化意义。这些古老的建筑如果保存好，可以成为旅游景点，吸引成千上万的来自世界各地的游客。

(1) 本段论证老建筑具有历史和文化含义，因此不能被拆除。

(2) Significant 重要的

(3) For any reason 为了任何理由

(4) Deserve 值得

(5) Reminder 提醒的话或物

(6) Imperial 帝王的

(7) Feudal 封建的

(8) Attract 吸引

We all need a memory of our past. Many old buildings do have historical and cultural value which tells us who we were. We need to take good care of these buildings and keep them as long as possible so that they can tell the stories of the city or the nation to the future generation. Of course, those old buildings with little value ought to be pulled down, especially when they pose safety problems to people.

我们都需要对过去的记忆。许多古老的建筑的确有历史和文化价值，告诉我们过去的历史。我们需要好好照顾这些建筑物，并尽可能久地保存它们，这样它们就可以给未来子孙讲述城市或国家的故事。当然，那些价值不大的旧建筑应该拆掉，尤其是当这些建筑给人们带来安全问题的时候。

（1）本段为结论段，回答在何种程度上应该保护古老建筑这个问题。老雅认为，这个结论段非常精彩，语言平易，但表达出了相当有意思的思维。烤鸭们可以记忆模仿。

（2）Memory 记忆

（3）Future generation 未来的一代

（4）Pose 造成，引起

10月21日雅思大作文：科学研究由政府主导

雅思大作文题目：

Scientific research should be carried out and controlled by the government rather than private companies.

To what extent do you agree or disagree?

【话题分类】

政府类话题

【题目解析】

题目大意：科学研究应该由政府而不是私人公司来进行和控制。你同意还是不同意这个观点。

这个题目是一道老题，和科技发展相关的文章通常会和政府挂钩，比如类似的“政府是否应该对太空探索投入大量资源”。

从题目的角度非常好审题，从政府和私人公司做科学实验的角度去分析即可，比如政府有足够的资金和资源主导科学实验，从信息安全的角度会更让人信赖，一些国家利器的科学实验也必须由政府主导，弊端就是有些实验可能进展缓慢，一些小型的科学实验没必要由政府主导；私人公司方面，好处是做的实验更有创新性更贴合市场需要，弊端就是安全性和隐私性不强，信息容易泄露，同时私人公司可能会为利益做出令人无法信服的实验成果。

【写作思路】

开头段：改写题目，阐述个人立场。

主体1段：为什么应该是政府主导科学实验：有充足资金保障实验完成；能够保障实验安全性和隐私性，不侵害国家安全。

主体2段：有些人认为私人公司有进行科学实验的优势，但由于私人公司多是逐利的，进行科学实验的隐患很大。

总阶段：重申个人观点，科学实验应该由国家来主导和监督。

【参考范文】

Scientific research across the world plays a significant role in national development. Some people think that governments should conduct crucial scientific research rather than private companies. I believe that scientific projects should be carried out and supervised by the state.

There are many benefits of governments taking care of scientific research. Firstly, successful scientific experiments which require years of commitment and sufficient capital can only be guaranteed by the government. If the project fails to achieve its objective, the government has executive power and resources to deal with the losses incurred. Moreover, the government should implement research such as nuclear technology or military intelligence because those activities are in the national interest and involve high levels of secrecy. By contrast, private businesses may compromise principles and leak research findings, posing a severe threat to national security.

On the other hand, private companies can participate in scientific research since they can attract talented scientists and make advances in various fields. Over the past few decades, many private organizations have presided over valuable research on multiple areas such as space exploration or renewable energy sources. However, corporations undertaking scientific research may manipulate results to maximize profits. For example, legislation in medical companies usually requires rigorous trials and decades for new drugs to complete. This process might be too long for profit-driven agencies to go through. Thus, new products tend to be introduced hurriedly just after preliminary trials.

To conclude, I would argue that governments should primarily monitor and control scientific research. With well-regulated and credible methods, the government can minimize the risk of these studies being abused. Private companies should not be deprived of scientific exploitation provided that they are kept within precise limits.
