Some people believe that charities should give aid to those who need the aid most, wherever they live. Some people believe that charity organizations would better concentrate on people in their own countries instead. Discuss both views and give your own opinion.
Concern about humanitarian assistance has been heightened in recent years. Although it illustrates a moral ideal of mankind, many people who hold opposing views think that the welfare of fellow citizens is the priority. International aid has its weaknesses but its importance should not be denied.
The main reason why international donation agencies should view international aid from a global perspective is that their funds can help the citizens of those recipient countries to combat poverty, disease and inequality. We should first recognize that citizens of developing countries are in desperate need of aid, because they are susceptible to natural or man-made disasters such as wars. In those war-torn or poverty-stricken countries, where resources are scanty, there is a high demand for food, medicine tents and shelters. In addition, humanitarian action can restore some of their basic rights, such as the right to receive education. This is also consistent with the universal principle of supporting vulnerable populations. Those who cannot provide financial support can work as international volunteers and deliver services, such as training and medical service, to those needy people.
Despite the heightened importance of international aid, people have discovered that it is not likely to ensure the impartial and equitable distribution of the aid. Local authorities or not-for-profit organizations can be compassionate and altruistic but they may also use resources to satisfy their personal interests. Since it is difficult for donors to investigate whether their funds are mishandled, they are willing to choose beneficiaries locally. They are willing to witness how their donation improves beneficiaries’ living standards. In view of this fact, humanitarian agencies and charity organizations should take steps to increase transparency so as to convince donors that beneficiaries can receive donations in due course.
To summarize, we should realize the implications of international aid to those who are affected by disasters, poverty and misfortunes. Provided that resources are used appropriately, humanitarian aid can fulfill its mission.
In some countries, it is possible for people to buy products made in other countries. To what extent do the benefits of this development outweigh the problems?
As the world is increasingly globalized, the exchange of commodities across the border is proceeding at an astounding rate. It has sparked controversy over whether the increase in imports has adverse impacts. From my point of view, this practice’s advantages outweigh its
disadvantages.
Importing goods can yield a number of benefits. The first benefit is that despite the high cost of transportation, imports are competitively priced.The main reason is that the countries that export these goods normally have technology and professional knowledge to ensure the goods’quality and affordability. For example, China specializes in the production of textile products so China-made textile products are cheaper than local counterparts in many parts of the world. Besides, imported goods have challenged domestic manufactures’ dominance and intensified competition, thereby lowering product prices. It is beneficial to domestic customers, because the cost of living will decline. It is worth noting that food products imported from overseas can alleviate the food shortage caused by abnormal weather. This advantage is more pronounced in cold regions than intemperate regions.
On the other hand, the downside of importing goods is that the excessive reliance on imports is likely to lead to the underdevelopment of some domestic industries. For instance, many countries import computers, resulting in domestic manufactures’bankruptcy. This is detrimental to the development of a self-contained economy. In addition, transportation may create considerable pollution, especially when it involves air freight.
It is therefore reasonable to think that the advantages of importing
commodities should be accepted with caution. Although customers are able to acquire commodities at lower cost, countries also need to pay attention to the development of their respective industries.
Some people think cheap air travel brings us benefits while others believe that non-essential flights should be cut in order to reduce environmental problems caused by cheap air travel. Discuss both views and give your own opinion.
Air travel has fundamentally changed / transformed / altered our means of transport, allowing us to travel across boundaries. However, considering a number of problems caused by air travel, some people suggest that we reduce non-essential trips, including those to foreign destinations. We can refute this view by spelling out/outlining some benefits of air travel.
It is undeniable that air travel offers a convenient means of travelling, by which we can travel to different places in the world for business trips, sightseeing and visiting friends. The fast development of the airline industry has laid a solid foundation for globalization, especially the international cooperation between multinational enterprises. It should be acknowledged that businesspeople are able to investigate different countries’ business environment so they can bring products, services and job opportunities to these countries. Another advantage is that people can travel to different countries by air, increase cultural experiences
and broaden their horizons, thereby observing life from different perspectives. If they travel at home, they may be exposed to similar cultures and lifestyles in different regions, despite the differences in landscape. The consequence is that it is difficult for them to communicate with people from different cultural backgrounds and accept these people’s ideas and traditions.
Considering these benefits, we should seek to address the concerns about air travel, instead of restricting it. People’s reliance on air travel has prompted airline companies to operate new routes, thereby generating enormous idle capacity. The government may require airline companies to raise airfares, so travellers are discouraged from taking non-essential trips. There is no denying that air travel generates air pollution, which is to some extent responsible for global climate changes. Other problems associated with air travel include noise pollution as well as the environmental destruction arising from the construction of airports and relevant facilities. It is therefore important to adopt some technical solutions, including the design of fuel-efficient planes.
To summarize, my view is that it makes no sense to restrict air travel, in view of its contribution to economic development and cultural exchange.
2015年6月6日雅思写作（一） 题目类别society 提问方式Discussion 考试题目 Some people prefer to provide help and support directly to those in their local community who need it. Others, however prefer to give money to national and international charitable organizations. Discuss both views and give your opinion. 有人认为给需要救助的人自己的帮助更加可取，有人认为给有需求的国家或国际援助组织提供经济援助更加重要，讨论两种观点，给出你的意见。 Although people in industrialized countries lead a high standard of living, it is undeniable that there are still 1.2 billion people living below the poverty line. In order to solve poverty-related problems, I feel that all kinds of help should be encouraged and respected. Giving a helping hand to those who are in need in the local community seems reasonable. It is because even in the richest countries, there are still a lot of people, such as disabled people and orphanages, suffering from famine and extreme poverty. For this reason, it is easy and convenient for us to help our fellow citizens, such as donating food or clothing to them, so that we can see the result of our actions immediately. By contrast, it is rather difficult to track expenditure of international aids, which might result in corruption in some cases. Those who donate money to domestic and international charities believe that the collection of money has a tremendous effect on the poor countries compared with other forms of help. This is because few people are able to donate a large amount of money to construct schools, hospitals and roads in poor areas. Instead, governments and charities can achieve this. International aids can also purchase vaccines which are available in developed countries by using the money raised worldwide and save millions children’s life. In my view, minor proportion of donated money and other sorts of help should be appreciated equally as long as the money reaches to those who need it desperately. The government could run campaign and encourage door-to door help. At the same time, charitable organizations should make every penny count for donors.(word count：274)

2019年雅思写作小作文流程图解析及范文：废纸回收 The chart below shows the process of waste paper recycling. 范文： The flow chart shows how waste paper is recycled. It is clear that there are six distinct stages in this process, from the initial collection of waste paper to the eventual production of usable paper. At the first stage in the paper recycling process, waste paper is collected either from paper banks, where members of the public leave their used paper, or directly from businesses. This paper is then sorted by hand and separated according to its grade, with any paper that is not suitable for recycling being removed. Next, the graded paper is transported to a paper mill. Stages four and five of the process both involve cleaning. The paper is cleaned and pulped, and foreign objects such as staples are taken out. Following this, all remnants of ink and glue are removed from the paper at the de-inking stage. Finally, the pulp can be processed in a paper making machine, which makes the end product： usable paper. (160 words, band 9)

雅思议论文中的“三明治”结构 作者：黄志贤 | 来源：朗阁海外考试研究中心 | 时间：2009-10-05 | 335 次 | 字体 [ 大中小 ] [收藏] [划词已启用] 写雅思大作文就如同在建筑一座大楼一般。首先是进行大楼结构设计，然后再进行实际的建筑工程，最后经过装修而成为耐用而漂亮的大楼。良好的结构对于大楼的实用以及美观有着非常重要的作用。同样道理，良好的作文结构也将提高文章的质量和成绩。从一定意义上来说，优秀的作文结构可以使内容条理清晰易懂，还可以弥补语言表达上的不足。 议论文的整体结构 雅思专家认为，一篇好的议论文一般由三个部分构成，分别是导语段（Introduction），主体段落（Body）与总结段（Conclusion）。这个结构很像三明治，其中导语段与总结段就像最上层和最下层的面包，而主体段落为论证段，相对较为重要，就像三明治中间的肉和菜。其结构如下图所示： 通常情况下按照实际的需要，中间的主体部分（Body）又可以分成二到四个段落，其结构图分别如下： (注：*段落视需要而增加) 由于导语段中最重要部分是中心句（Thesis statement），它是全文的立足点，决定文章的发展方向，覆盖全文；段落主题句（Topic sentence）是每一段的重点，覆盖各自所在的段落。因此，我们可以通过思考后得出议论文的中心句（Thesis statement）以及各主体段落主题句（Topic sentence）。此外，为求达到全文的统一性(Unity)和连贯性(Coherence), 考生们应当合理地安排中心句和各段的主题句的关系，使得中心句覆盖全文，使得各段的主题句很好地支持着中心句。如果中心句没有覆盖主题句，说明正文偏题了。如果中心句超过主题句，刚说明内容有遗漏，或者说内容不够全面。中心句各段的主题句的关系情况可由下面三张图表示：
2019年12月17日雅思大作文真题及范文 Task：Some people think getting old is entirely bad, but other people do think it’s much better for old people to live now than in the past. Please show your idea with explanation, examples and your knowledge. Sample answer： It has become a common phenomenon for people in a number of countries to enjoy an increasing life expectancy. While some people believe it is horrible just to imagine getting old , I think the situation has completely changed comparing to decades ago and now elderly people can lead a happy life. In some cases, the seniors do experience empty nest syndrome because their children are away from home. However, things are different nowadays. There are numerous residential homes with trained carers in a country and they have become a perfect place for the elderly to stay after retirement, where the elderly will not feel lonely and bored with the company of their peers. Another concern for numerous senior citizens is the health problem. In the past, without advanced medical science, the seniors tend to suffer from various kinds of diseases, which decrease their quality of life at great extent. By contrast, the medical science is developing at an amazing speed and this trend can at least delay the onset of some chronic conditions and with healthy body, the elderly can enjoy happier lives.
2017雅思A类写作大作文真题范文 1.07 教育类 Task：Art classes, like painting and drawing, are not as important as other subjects, so some people think that it should not be a compulsory subject at high school. To what extent do you agree or disagree? Schools are places where students acquire knowledge and skills needed for further achievements. Given the pressure that students are facing, some cannot help wondering whether art classes should still be compulsory. Those holding the view that art classes should not be compulsory might think that art consumes too much of students' time. Fierce competitions students will face when applying for universities necessitate total devotion to academic subjects. College students who intend to take science as their major are even expected to be fluent in foreign languages now so that essays written by foreign scholars are not barriers in their academic pursuit. In other words, high school students are supposed to show higher levels of academic competence,which seemingly makes art unessential. However, art classes are by no means only intended for entertainment. Children even dabbling in art tend to be more creative in mind. Those skilled in music or painting can interpret the world in a way that we cannot expect from a layman. This kind of ingenuity is also a rare quality constantly found in great scientists, whose contributions have served to create a totally new field for the latter generations. In his reply to a question about death, Albert Einstein considered his departure from the mortal world to be forever farewell to another great musician. With a sigh he answered "I cannot listen to Mozart anymore". Thus, can we simply regard art classes to be selective?
