综合写作是三个措施,提高濒危海龟sea turtles的数量。
一个是建立metal fences to隔离predators,反驳:海龟用magentic去navigate,在产蛋之后找到最短的路径。但是metal fences会影响它这个功能,不能well-developed,所以威胁他的生存和生产能力。
另一个是ban plastic bags,反驳是海里已经有太多垃圾袋,需要billions或者trillions年才能breakdown,即使breakdown了还遗留了一些有害物质。所以这个措施没有立竿见影的效果.
第三个是design turtles excluders,反驳:因为fishers的整理捞鱼产量降低,所以他们就捞之前remove 这个网,然后再放回去。这个法律很难implement

Doctor:
In recent years, there has been ongoing debate regarding the relevance and necessity of public libraries. Some argue that in the digital age, where information is readily available online, libraries may have lost their significance. What are your thoughts on the importance of libraries today? Do you believe cities should continue to maintain public libraries?
同学一:
Libraries were relevant when books were the main source of knowledge and people couldn't afford personal libraries. But in our digital world, public funding for libraries is an unnecessary expenditure. With so much information online, who needs physical books? Very few people read anymore. I haven't stepped foot in a library for years.
同学二:
Public libraries are still valuable community resources. While digital information is widespread, libraries offer engaging programs that inspire kids' love of reading. From storytimes to summer reading clubs, these activities get children excited about books in a way websites can't match. Libraries nurture the next generation of readers - we shouldn't abandon them yet.
审题注意点:1.这道考题, 包括综合+学术,都重复了24年3月16日的原题。图书馆还算是大家日常生活中经常接触的地方,所以分析和写作起来应该是简单的。现在大家虽然不去图书馆借书了,但经常还去图书馆看书,备考。为什么? 安静,方便,不容易分心。这些都是可行的论点。
2. 可行的论点:
公共图书馆的好处:
--是很多人安心学习的重要场所。
--方便很多没有电子设备的人读书。比如,小孩子,低收入群体等。
--有很多演讲,活动等,方便人们扩展视野。
公共图书馆重要性下降:
--人们现在主要依赖电子产品阅读,非常方便和快捷,不需要公共图书馆借书了。
参考范文:
Echoing Claire's perspective, I firmly believe that public libraries retain their essential role in people's lives today. Libraries are not just about books; they are ideal venues for reading, studying, and even working in a serene environment. They are equipped with modern amenities such as Wi-Fi, chargers, and printers, enabling patrons to use their own devices comfortably. Moreover, many libraries have integrated coffee houses at the corner of the first floor, providing a perfect spot for a break after hours of studying.
The appeal of public libraries is undeniable.Before opening hours, there's often a queue of diverse individuals eager to enter. This includes students preparing for exams, professionals seeking a quiet work environment, and seniors looking to explore new knowledge.
In a fast-paced society,where the hustle and bustle can be overwhelming, public libraries offer a tranquil refuge. They are places where individuals can immerse themselves in their work or studies, undisturbed by the noise and concerns of the outside world.(162字)

教授:
Many companies provide important products and services but at the same time cause environment damages.Some people believe the way to prevent these companies from damaging the environment is for the government to require more penalties from them, such as higher tax and larger fine. Do you think it is a good idea?
Andrew:A lot of companies make helpful products but hurt the environment too. l think thegovernment should punish them more, like raising their taxes and fines, to stop the damage. Doing that would hold corporations accountable and force themto change in an impactful way. We canhave both innovation and sustainability if governments incentivize it properly through penalties.Claire:I disagree that we should penalize corporations more for environmental damage. Many companies are already taking steps to adopt greener practices, and higher taxes or fines could discourage innovation and hurt the economy. Instead of punishing businesses, l believe the government should reward and incentivize sustainable choices through subsidies and tax breaks.
审题注意点
(1)这道题重复了今年2.22日的原题。
写作团·day19 环境类难篇讲解·讲过类似的题目(20年9月6日的老题),并列为相关题目供大家拓展练习。 相信跟着团认真学习的同学,有比较充分地准备。
(2). 可行的分论点:
这个题目确实难度比较大,需要大家至少有政府,环境,经济方面的语料和表达。不然可能思路想到了,但是写不出来。
1.“prevent companies from damaging the environment”:主要对象是公司。如何阻止公司破坏环境的行为。这些行为包括:化工工厂chemical plants/发电厂/炼油厂oil refinery等燃烧煤,石油等,排放大量有毒气体,污染当地环境。制衣公司使用有害的化学染剂,制药公司使用过的有害物质等,再不经过处理就直接排放到环境中。日用产品使用过多塑料包装袋等等。
2.require more penalties from them, such as higher tax and larger fine:比如让这些工厂上缴更多的税,或者直接给这些公司开罚单。
一种可能的结果是,工厂因为经济负担过重,生产无法延续下去,最后破产到倒闭。 这样当然也减少了环境污染。但是,也对经济发展造成了损失。
一种可能是,工厂为了维持利润,提高产品的价格,最终由消费者承担政府开出的罚单。这样可能工厂仍然会继续排污,破坏环境。 消费者也会对这个政策不满。
---->当然还有可能是,消费者会选择一些低价的环保产品,从而促使这些工厂主动减少排污,最终有利于环境保护。
还有可能是:工厂为了避免被罚款,所以主动地研发,采用新技术,从而减少对环境的破坏。比如现在的电动汽车。
👩🏻🏫:以上思路都是可行的。但要注意,大家要避免思路想得过于复杂,提升了自己思考,表达的难度。尽量选择思路简单,清晰地内容写作。毕竟,思路的严密和复杂,并不是托福这个语言考试的要求。
参考范文:
参考范文一:同意I concur with Claire thatgovernments should levy green taxes and impose penalties on companies that harm the environment.通过提升对这些公司的税收和罚款等,政府就督促每个公司减少对环境的破坏(By implementing such policies, the government is urging them to take measures to protect the environment....。因为有些公司会为了避免罚款,就会减少破坏环境的行为。For exmaple,many automotive manufacturers in my country are graduallyphasing outtraditional carsin favor ofelectric vehicles.This change was catalyzed by a new government law thattriples thetaxes oncompanies whose products will emit toxic gases or discharge polluted waterbeyond permissible limits. Car emissions, the significant pollutants,forced these manufacturers to adapt or face crippling financial burdens.Nowadays, thanks to these companies' swift action, more people can purchase the environmentally-friendly cars, andthe city smog caused by car emssions which has long plagued our cities is also alleviated.This promising trend is not confined to the automotive industry but is also observable in other sectors.In conclusion, I firmly believethat penalizing eco-unfriendly companies is an effective strategy that ought to be universally adopted.
参考范文二:不同意
I agree with Andrew that imposing green taxes on companies that cause damage to the environmentis not a good policy for governments.Admittedly,通过提升对这些公司的税收和罚款等,政府就督促每个公司减少对环境的破坏(By imposing heavier penalties on companies causing environmental damages, the government is urging them to take measures to protect local environment....。因为有些公司会为了避免罚款,就会减少破坏环境的行为。However, 但是,还有可能的是,很多公司直接提升自己产品的价格来抵消破坏环境带来的罚款。这样不仅没有保护环境,还加重了人们的负担。
