　　雅思大作文题目

　　是否应该保护野生动物？

　　“Some people say that too much money and time are spent on protecting wild animals. Wild animals have no place in the 21st century, so protecting them is a waste of resources. So, such resources should be better spent on human population. To what extent do you agree or disagree?　”

 

 

　　解析&审题

　　这个题目的关键点是：在21世纪野生动物没有什么重要性，因此不应花那么多钱去保护它们，而应该把钱花在人类身上。就这个观点，我们的The first直觉当然是反对。

　　但是，唐老师要提醒大家的是，当大家在论证应该保护野生动物的时候，一定不要忘记要以某种方式证明题目中相反观点的合理性，也就是说，大家一定要说清楚“不应花太多钱保护野生动物，而应花钱解决人类自身问题”这个观点也是有一定道理的，比如有些野生动物很危险，不应该保护，即使是可爱的野生动物，跟人类好像也没有多大关系；在论证应该保护野生动物的时候，我们应该抓住“在21世纪保护野生动物的重要性”，可以从以下方面入手：世界应该具有多样性；野生动物的存在是人类存在的前提条件。最后再得出自己的结论：野生动物的存在与人类自身的存在息息相关，因此花多少钱都要保护野生动物，尤其在21世纪，很多野生动物面临灭绝的危险（提21世纪能更好地紧扣题目要求讨论的内容）。

 

　　老师笔记

　　01

　　Protecting wildlife has never been so essential in the history of humanity when there are fewer places left that wild animals can call home. Though it is not without any reason that some people think protecting wild animals is a waste of resources, I certainly agree that every penny spent on it is worthwhile.

　　在人类历史上，保护野生动物从来没有这么重要，因为野生动物可以称之为家的地方越来越少了。尽管有些人认为保护野生动物是浪费资源，我absolute同意每一分钱都是值得的。

　　解析

　　本段首先提出，当前保护野生动物非常重要，然后提出自己的观点。

　　（1） in the history of humanity  在人类历史上

　　（2）...it is not without any reason that... 做......是不无道理的

　　（3）...every penny spent on it is worthwhile  在它上面花的任何一分钱都值得

　　There are financial reasons why we need not to bother to save all endangered animal species. It would cost billions of dollars a year to preserve threatened wild animals. This is unthinkable for many, since millions of people are still suffering from food shortage and even more deprived of the opportunity to receive education because of poverty. It is still harder to understand why anyone would want to preserve such dangerous animals as tigers and wolves, which pose a threat both to people and livestock. Surely, it will be sad if there are not any more cute pandas on the planet, but it is not like that we depend on them. After all, what is the point of protectingthreatened wild animals from dying out when human beings have their own problems to worry about?

　　我们不需要费心去拯救所有濒临绝种的动物，这是有经济原因的。每年要花费数十亿美元来保护有灭绝危险的野生动物。对许多人来说，这是不可想象的，因为数以百万计的人仍在遭受粮食短缺的痛苦，而且由于贫困，更多的人被剥夺了接受教育的机会。更难理解的是为什么会有人愿意保护老虎和狼等危险动物，这些动物对人类和牲畜都构成威胁。当然，如果地球上没有更多可爱的熊猫，那将是可悲的，但似乎我们也不依赖它们。总之，当人类有自己的问题需要担心时，保护濒危的野生动物免于灭绝又有什么意义呢？

　　解析

　　本段讨论反方观点：没有必要保护野生动物。原因有三：首先是经济原因，保护野生动物花费巨大；其次是没有必要保护对我们的生命构成威胁的那些野生动物；最后是野生动物即使可爱如熊猫，跟我们的生活都没有多大关系。最后一句是修辞性设问，相当于给全段做总结。

　　（1）endangered (/ threatened) animal species 濒临灭绝的野生物种

　　（2）food shortage 粮食短缺

　　（3）pose a threat to... 对......构成威胁

　　（4）what is the point of （doing sth./ sth.）... 做......的意义何在？

 

　　03

　　However, protecting wild animals is important for the present as well as future generations. The Mother Nature requires that different species stay connected so that the extinction of one particular species might influence one or more other species along the line. If we as human beings stand at the top of the pyramid of ecosystem, our survival is totally dependent on the existence of other "lower" animals. Therefore, protecting wild animals can be a preventive step for humans to remain safe.  This has become particularly urgent in the 21st century because much of the wild animal habitat has been destroyed by us human beings.

　　然而，保护野生动物对今世后代都很重要。大自然母亲要求不同的物种保持联系，某一特定物种的灭绝,可能会影响这条线上的一个或多个其他物种。如果我们人类站在生态系统金字塔的顶端，我们的生存完全取决于其他“低端”动物的存在。因此，保护野生动物就是保护人类安全的一项预防措施，这在21世纪变得尤为紧迫，因为大部分野生动物栖息地已经被我们人类毁灭。

　　解析

　　本段讨论正方观点：应该保护野生动物。本段采用的是说理的论证方式：大自然让每个物种相互关联→人类需要低端动物→保护野生动物就是保护我们自己→21世纪这个问题尤其迫切。

　　（1）future generations 子孙后代

　　（2）pyramid of ecosystem 生态系统的金字塔

　　（3）be dependent on... 取决于；依靠......

 

　　04

　　In conclusion, far from having no connection to our survival, wild animals are the very precondition for our existence on this planet. We certainly need to take care of our own problems, yet if all wild animals perish, we human beings will perish as well.

　　总之，野生动物远不是与我们的生存没有任何联系，而是我们在这个星球上生存的先决条件。我们当然需要处理自己的问题，但是如果所有野生人类灭亡了，我们人类也会灭亡。

　　解析

　　本段为结论：强调野生动物对于人类生存的重要性。

　　（1）far from...  远非......

　　（2）...as well  也；同样
