官方题(一)Intelligent Machines

This sample prompt, Intelligent Machines, is representative of the prompts that will be

used for the ACT writing test.

The test describes an issue and provides three different perspectives on the issue. You are

asked to "evaluate and analyze" the perspectives; to "state and develop" your own

perspective; and to "explain the relationship" between your perspective and those given.

Your score will not be affected by the perspective you take on the issue.

Sample prompt

Intelligent Machines

Many of the goods and services we depend on daily are now supplied by intelligent,

automated machines rather than human beings. Robots build cars and other goods on

assembly lines, where once there were human workers. Many of our phone

conversations are now conducted not with people but with sophisticated technologies.

We can now buy goods at a variety of stores without the help of a human cashier.

Automation is generally seen as a sign of progress, but what is lost when we replace

humans with machines? Given the accelerating variety and prevalence of intelligent

machines, it is worth examining the implications and meaning of their presence in our

lives.

Perspective One Perspective Two Perspective Three

What we lose with the

replacement of people by

machines is some part of

our own humanity. Even

our mundane daily

encounters no longer

require from us basic

courtesy, respect, and

tolerance for other people. Machines are good at

low-skills, repetitive jobs,

and at high-speed,

extremely precise jobs. In

both cases they work better

than humans. This

efficiency leads to a more

prosperous and progressive

world for everyone. Intelligent machines

challenge our long-standing

ideas about what humans

are or can be. This is good

because it pushes both

humans and machines

toward new, unimagined

possibilities.

官方题(二)Public Health and Individual Freedom

Public Health and Individual Freedom

Most people want to be healthy, and most people want as much freedom as possible to

do the things they want. Unfortunately, these two desires sometimes conflict. For

example, smoking is prohibited from most public places, which restricts the freedom of

some individuals for the sake of the health of others. Likewise, car emissions are

regulated in many areas in order to reduce pollution and its health risks to others, which

in turn restricts some people’s freedom to drive the vehicles they want. In a society that

values both health and freedom, how do we best balance the two? How should we think

about conflicts between public health and individual freedom?

Perspective One Perspective Two Perspective Three

Our society should strive to

achieve the greatest good

for the greatest number of

people. When the freedom

of the individual interferes

with that principle, freedom

must be restricted.

Nothing in society is more

valuable than freedom.

Perhaps physical health is

sometimes improved by

restricting freedom, but the

cost to the health of our free

society is far too great to

justify it.

The right to avoid health

risks is a freedom, too.

When we allow individual

behavior to endanger

others, we’ve damaged

both freedom and health.
