【題目】

Economic progress is one way to measure a country's success. But some people think other factors are also important.

What are the other factors??

Which factor is the most important one?

這道題要討論的是：如何衡量國家發(fā)展成功與否？已有的觀點是，通過經(jīng)濟發(fā)展來衡量。但有些人提出其他的因素也非常重要。要求考生回答的是：還有哪些因素對國家的發(fā)展至關重要？而這些因素中最重要的是哪一個？

【范文】

(1) As a key factor in social development, economic progress has attracted full attention of policy makers in most countries of the world. However, some people suggest there are other factors that are as important as economic progress. This essay will focus on other aspects of the society that should be taken into consideration while measuring a country’s success.

(2) First and foremost, the success of a country is ultimately reflected by the well-being of the people. It is true that the growth of total social wealth leads to better lives for average people in general, but we cannot deny the fact that in some countries, wealth accumulates much faster in upper classes than in the working class. Sometimes, the gap is so wide that the poor ones actually become poorer with the currency inflation that appears along with economic growth. In other words, to ensure the healthy development of the society, economic progress should benefit everyone with a scientific distribution system.

(3) Besides, the success of a country relies on the all-round development of its younger generations. The cutting-edge scientific progress laying the path to a promising future is mostly driven by well-educated and innovative young people. For example, Mark Zackerburg, the founder of Facebook, successfully altered the online behaviour of hundreds and millions of netizens and made unprecedented contribution to the network industry. It is similar in other industries, which urges for better education and opportunities for each one.

(4) Last but not the least, a country should spare no effort to preserve its culture and traditions. For a nation, the culture identity and shared value system are essential to social stability. Only in a stable environment can the society thrive and provide sufficient space for the freedom of self-development for everyone.

(5) In conclusion, other than economic growth, the success of a country depends on various factors, among which the balanced development of all social classes plays the most important role.

【解析】

本題的一大“陷阱”在于，很多考生會本能地當作“同意不同意”類的題目入手，一上來就寫經(jīng)濟發(fā)展對國家成功到底有多重要。殊不知，這樣一寫基本上就跑題了，因為本題的討論重點應該在“other factors”。

這篇范文每段一點，講了三方面的因素：

1. 經(jīng)濟發(fā)展與社會公平。

2. 青年教育與創(chuàng)新。

3. 文化傳統(tǒng)的傳承。

由于題中問了“最重要的一點”，因此在結尾特別點明了“社會平衡發(fā)展”的重要性。

此外，段落開頭所用的連詞也暗示了重要性的順序，如：

First and foremost, ... ? ?首先，最主要的是……

Last but not the least, ... ? ? ?最后的，但同樣重要的是……

怎么樣，看起來如此龐大的話題，你Hold得住么？
