4月12日雅思考試作文解析及范文

題目：Some people believe the purpose of education is to prepare people to be useful members for society. Others say that the purpose of education is to achieve personal ambitions. Discuss both views and give your own opinion。

教育的目的是為了社會的發(fā)展還是個人的抱負(fù)？這個題目以前也考過多次，最近一次是2011年的8月13號。其實這兩者是不矛盾的。除了少數(shù)覺悟比較高的同學(xué)是為了國家和天下而讀書，恐怕大多數(shù)同學(xué)都是為了個人的前途而讀書。但是客觀上來說，當(dāng)你自己學(xué)業(yè)有成的時候，你也就能夠為社會做出更大的貢獻(xiàn)，所以讀書為社會和為個人，其實是可以統(tǒng)一起來的。

回到這個題目，既然是寫作考試，就需要按照題目要求從兩方面來回答。文章的正方寫的是為了社會而讀書，給出了以下幾條理由：有很多國家的教育是免費的(比如除了中國以外的某些國家)，政府花錢給你讀書，所以希望你能夠回報社會(contribute in return to the society)。另外，不管你的主觀目的是什么，當(dāng)你受了教育之后你就有更大的能力為社會做貢獻(xiàn)(serve the society)，所以為了社會而讀書的理由能夠成立。

反方是為了個人的成就和抱負(fù)而讀書。我們?nèi)匀豢梢哉務(wù)剬W(xué)費問題，當(dāng)你在交納各種學(xué)雜費擇校費補課費考試費的時候，難道你此時心里想的是國家社稷？比如說你出國留學(xué)，花了幾十萬，難道是為了學(xué)成以后報效祖國？這么思想高尚的人畢竟是少數(shù)。我們不能忽略一個事實，受教育能夠讓人找到好的工作，過更好的生活，有更高的社會地位(social status)，所以讀書為了個人發(fā)展，這樣的觀點也是理由充分的。如果大家讀書為了個人前途和抱負(fù)(ambition and aspiration)，應(yīng)該會更有動力(be more motivated)。

結(jié)論段仍然是我們的折中式寫法：如果讀書只為社會，那么很多人會失去學(xué)習(xí)動力(lose motivation)，但是每個受教育的人都應(yīng)該承擔(dān)自己的社會責(zé)任。如果讀書只為自己的話，那么教育的產(chǎn)品將會是一些拿著高學(xué)歷的自私自利的人。

2014-4-12 教育的目的：對社會有益vs實現(xiàn)個人抱負(fù)(教育類話題)

The purpose of education is difficult to define and people from different backgrounds may have varying opinions about this issue。

There is a wide recognition that the goal of education is to cultivate useful members for the society. In many countries, schools are funded or subsidized by the government; therefore, people expect the graduates to contribute in return to the society. In addition, well-educated people can better serve the society, considering the knowledge and skills that they acquire through good education. This fact makes people believe that the purpose of education is to prepare qualified personnel for the development of the society。

However, some people argue that, from the perspective of students, the purpose of education is to achieve their personal ambitions or realize their own dreams. This viewpoint is advocated particularly among people who need to pay the tuition fee by themselves, as not all countries provide free and high quality compulsory education. Moreover, if people bear in mind that they can live a better life in the future by studying hard in school, they are likely to be more motivated in their study. When we consider the fact that people with higher education level usually enjoy better living conditions and higher social status, it seems to be true that the purpose of receiving education is for one’s personal welfare and aspirations。

In my opinion, education should serve both purposes: the prosperity of the society and the fulfillment of personal ambitions. If we overemphasize the benefits that education can bring to the society, individuals may lose their motivation in study. On the other hand, it is also wrong for a person to forget the social responsibility that he or she should take. Without devotion and commitment to the well-being of all social members, the products of education would be selfish personnel with qualifications。
