雅思大作文7分范文及解析：應(yīng)該去保護(hù)瀕臨滅絕的動物嗎？

題目來源：2018年8月11日大陸雅思大作文：

Some animals have come to extinction. There is no reason of protecting them. Do you agree or disagree? 

 

 

題目大意：有些動物已經(jīng)開始滅絕。沒理由去保護(hù)他們。同意反對？

 

 

 

首先確定有多少部分需要同意反對，題目觀點(diǎn)有2部分組成，但這道題中未必每一部分都有必要同意或反對

 

第一部分：Some animals have come to extinction. 這句話描述的一個客觀的現(xiàn)象——即對這部分并無需同意或反對。

第二部分：There is no reason of protecting them. 這是主觀的觀點(diǎn)——需要對此表達(dá)同意或反對——如果同意，則給出保護(hù)的理由；反對則給出不值得保護(hù)的理由。

 

引入批判性思維：題目的2句話之間，隱含一個因果邏輯的錯誤——因為有動物已經(jīng)開始滅絕了，所以就沒保護(hù)必要了 —— 其前提與結(jié)論并無必然聯(lián)系。

 

文章可以采用反對立場，分2個段落：

1）分析為何題目認(rèn)為沒必要保護(hù)動物；

2）指出這種觀點(diǎn)錯在哪里，并給出我的理由

 

 

 

 

 

While there is a general belief that it is an irreversible process for some endangered species to extinct and therefore, we should not do anything to curb the trend, I would disagree with this specious statement because the problem can be mainly ascribed to human activities and it is imperative for us to undertake immediate remedial actions.   

 

From the Darwinians' perspective, the extinction of some wildlife is the inevitable corollary of nature's law – that is, the survival of the fittest. They believe that only the most vigorous species should survive the competition created by the life cycle. Those creatures who do not adapt to the evolving environment cannot escape from the fate of dying out. Therefore, Darwinian logic would assert that any attempts to constrain this upcoming trend would be in vain.  

 

However, I would say it is simplistic to attribute the extinction of wildlife solely to the selection of nature – what is ignored by advocates of this premise is the human activities that underlie this issue. One factor that brings many animals to the brink of extinction is poaching; the disappearance of the southern China tiger in the last century resulted from excessive hunting. Another factor we cannot afford to ignore is an encroachment on the natural habitat of relentless urbanization, which is culpable for the jeopardy of wildlife habitats and disrupts the interrelationship of flora and fauna. When it comes to the positive impact of a conservation approach, the past decades have witnessed some successful measures, whether these be the establishment of natural reserves, the development of reproduction technology or the implementation of environmental awareness campaigns. One convincing achievement is the preservation of the Panda, an endangered animal whose numbers have increased thanks to these approaches.   

 

In conclusion, it is my opinion that there are practical measures that we can take to ensure that the life cycle of each species is maintained and the results speak for themselves.
