关于英语辩论赛的技巧 英语辩论赛的技巧：多用反问句 在进行比赛的时候，可以多用一些反问句来增加气势，让对方觉得你准备充足，如经常用到Don't you think that。 英语辩论赛的技巧：语句要尽量简短 在英语辩论赛的时候尽量要以短小、简短的句子为主，用词要简单，道理浅显，别人一听就知道你在说的话语，而不是要想半天才明白你在说什么，如可以说you are bad，就尽量不要说you are not good。 英语辩论赛的技巧：要围绕主题 有些参加英语辩论赛的朋友，很多时候不知不觉在说的过程中就偏离了主题，其实这个对于英语辩论赛来说是很分的，一定切记要围绕主题，要有好心态，不要太心急。 英语辩论赛的技巧：保持微笑 每次站起来的时候要先微笑，过两秒再进行辩论。脸上保持微笑，这样会表示自己充满自信，也可以放松自己，同时给辩论对方一种气势，造成对方一定的心理压力。 英语辩论赛的技巧：语速要慢 记得你这个是英语辩论赛，全程是用英语进行的，你的对手在你说话快的程度可能会听得到明白你在说话，但大部分听众对于你说得快的情况就会不知道你在说什么，这样就是失去辩论的意义。 辩论赛技巧： 1、打乱阵脚：组织有序进攻，打乱对方的阵脚，使之兵未败而阵先乱，岂有不败之理? 2、直击底线。有意识地对对方底线全力猛攻，使其自我动摇，无力接济，仅有招架之功，却无还手之力，处于被动境地。 3、时间把握：即从严把握本方时间，有意启导、引导对方在无意识中把规定时间及早耗尽，以造成缺席审判的情势，这对本方极为有利。 4、节奏把握：自由辩论的时间不长，但是由于争锋剧烈，对抗性强，故往往呈现出很强的快节奏。一般而言，一强到底，一胜到底的队伍不多，这就需要有韧劲和力量持久才能取胜。故有经验的辩论队往往是先弱后强，欲擒故纵。其利在于先让对方强，以观察其底气，辨别其优劣，在制伏它。 5、避锋折锐：针锋相对，往往会陷于对峙和僵持。你针尖我麦芒，你推我搡，既不利于取胜，现场效果也不好。故有经验的辩论队往往不正面迎击，而是闪避一旁，轻轻折断其锋锐。这种闪避不是回避问题，而是巧用智力，或侧击、或高压、或机智、或幽默，巧击要害，巧借场上效果来使对方退却。简言之，即以大智大巧而对，不以表面热闹、直硬相拼见高低。 大家一定要记得上面所说的几点，并且多点练习就好。

Oral Test Form: Debate Time: 5 minutes (minimum) Directions: In this part, two students work together to debate on one of the following issues. Procedures: 1) Each candidate gives an opening statement to illustrate your viewpoint clearly. (1 minute each) 2) Two candidates debate on the issue by asking and responding to the opponent for more details. Each candidate should have an adequate background of the positions and arguments that you will be proposing. (3-4minutes) 3) Each candidate gives a final conclusive argument/statement at the end of the debate. (1 minute) 1.Examination is a common means to evaluate a student’s academic achievement. But some people think universities should assess students by other ways. Candidate 1: Examinations do more harm than good. Candidate 2: Examinations do more good than harm. Statement: In my opinion I think examination does more good to the recent situation. As we can see , the exam is a common way to evaluate a student, teacher and others. Why it is commonly used not only at home but also at aboard? The reasons are as follows. First, it is the easiest way up to now. you can’t find a better way now. you can judge a person in a short time. It only need two or three hours. Second, it is the fairest way. The candidate have the same access to the test, they have the same time to prepare the exam, in case of some people get in from the back door. What’s more, so many talented was selected by the exam in china, for example , hujitao a student of tinghua university. Free debating: First of all , I want to say that , if there isn’t a exam , what will you do ? you can almost get nothing after a semester, because you don’t have to take a exam, so you don’t have to remember and practice, which is not good for a student to rise their ability. We work on the subject for a semester, exam is the most efficient way to test the students who really paid much effort. Second , the exam do make much pressure to the students , but if their do not have pressure , how can the students make program? Sum up: To sum up, I still hold the point that the exam does more good than harm. All coins in the word has two sides, I do agree some point of you, but as you can see , in current days , this is the most scientific way ,not only from time or space , exam is still a way that can operate, you can’t come up with a better idea except this.. As for some point you just mentioned. I don’t agree. For ……….. So I still a defender of my idea 2.Which is more important for you in your life: knowledge from books you read, or personal experiences in reality? Candidate 1: Knowledge from books is more important than experiences. Candidate 2: Experiences is more important than knowledge from books. 开头：In my opinion I think【Experiences is more important than knowledge from books.】…………A s we can see 1.All books are in a good order, they are ordered by chapters. This could make your brain a computer, you just think in a fixed way. You will don’t have your own idea. 2.Almost all the company offer few salary to the newly graduate students, as time goes by, the boss will pay more the worker. Why they can get more payment? the experience played a very important role. 3.What’s more , all the books is based on the experience. If one don’t have much expe rience , I guess there is no possibility that he can make a book. Let us see some of you relatives , even they are not well educated , they may only know few word , they even cant read, but they still make money. Sometimes they even make more than the one who get educated. What’s more , all the book are not all right at all . some are even wrong. If you just take in , and have no experience, you may make wrong. And some situation are not for your case, you have to experience and get a new way of yourself. Last , if you only read books and never practice , the effort is in vain. A man can live on his own experience , but can’t live on books.

THW abolishing patents for life-saving medicines Thank you, pro speaker. Ladies and Gentlemen, good morning. Now, I’d like to provide my statements. For the first aspect, I want to say is the cost. Medicines cost a lot to come to market, patents are the only way to recoup that co st. Bringing a drug to market is expensive. In addition to the costs of scientists and l aboratories to discover and sift through potentially therapeutic compounds in th e first place, demonstrating efficacy and safety to the Food and Drug Administrati on requires costly clinical trials. Without F.D.A. approval, a drug cannot be market ed. Drug manufacturers say that they need to recoup the high cost of drug develo pment by charging high prices during the period they hold effective monopolies. A recent estimate, though contested, put the price of developing a drug from scra tch as high as $2.6 billion. Other estimates suggest it could be as low as $161 mill ion. Either way, it’s a lot of money. Without regulatory constraints, results from s uch an investment could be used by anyone to develop and market drugs. What’smore, In my view Abolishing patents for life-saving medicines would not decline the price of medici nes.The prop have founded their case on the idea that lots of generic producers will be able to produce drugs cheaply if patents are bypassed. However, there needs to be a massive incentive to get these drugs developed in the first place. They cost u p to $800 million to get to market, and this means huge amounts of investment ar e required. Not only does this investment need to be payed back, there needs to b e a promise of strong profit to pay off the risk of such a huge investment being un successfulbecause most drugs never go to market. As patents provide the ability t o charge monopoly pricing, if there was no patent for life-saving drugs there wou ld need to be an even greater incentive to stop companies producing non-life savi ng drugs instead. What this means is that whatever model the prop propose to pr ovide these incentives, it will always be more expensive than allowing a company to patent a product, which at least makes it as valuable as a non-life saving drug. For the second aspect, I think abolish patents for life-saving medicines will lead to non-lifesaving drugs . There are some potentially valuable drugs we‘ll never get drug companies to inve st in — those that cannot be patented. To see evidence of this, just look at the behavior of pharmaceutical firms. It has beendiscovered that drug companies discard many potentially good ideas becaus e they‘re unpatentable. By interviewing academic researchers and industry insid ers and scouring medicinal-chemistry textbooks, Mr. Roin learned that ―pharma ceutical companies systematically screen their drug candidates to exclude the on es lacking strong patent protection.
反方一辩：陈述观点 Thank you, we agree that develop tourism is needed, which can improve economic growth. But just think about the past decades, we have destroyed so many nature sources as well as environments in order to develop tourism. So our opinion is only when the environment is charming there will have the value of tourism. Beautiful environment will make people indulged in pleasures without stopping; enjoying amazing feeling of away from the messy world. Do you enjoy the through drama? The heroine will stay at that world not only because of the romantic love but also the purity nature view. But nowadays, almost all the tourists’ attractions have the trace of artificial modification. People almost cannot see nature’s original scenery. At the same time people start to voice new values: quality of life, urban conservation and the environment. Therefore, we must get to the bottom of the problem and learn from the past. That is, in the course of tourism development, we must consider the effect of distraction and accept that environment protection is in the first place. Only in this way can we solve environmental problems in the future reasonably. What’s more, protecting environment is not only for us but also for our future generations. We have a responsibility to make sure that offsprings can see the true and original beauty of the earth rather than manual processing of the scenery. So we think that the travel mode in the cost of destroying nature original scenery is not desirable and environment protection must be in the first place. That’s all what I want to say. Thank you. 自由辩论 反对“旅游促进经济增长，故旅游第一位” 理由：Beautiful environment will make people indulged in pleasures without stopping; enjoying amazing feeling of away from the messy world. We admit that tourism promotes economic development and economic construction is our country’s principle task. But we just cannot ignore the fact that most tourism industries
