1、雅思写作必背范文Happiness is considered very important in life. Why is it difficult to define?What factors are important in achieving happiness?Happiness is very difficult to define, because it means so many different things to different people. While some people link happiness to wealth and materia Isucces
2、s, others think it lies in emotions and loving personal relationships. Yet others think that spiritual paths, rather than either the material world or relationships with people, are the only way to true happiness.Because people interpret happiness for themselves in so many different waysjt is diffic
3、ult to give any definition that is true for everyone. However; if there are different kinds of happiness for different individuals then the first step in achieving it would be to have a degree of self-knowledge. A person needs to know who he or she is before being able to know what it is that makes
4、him or her happy.Of course, factors such as loving relationships, good health, the skills to earn a living and a peaceful environment all contribute to our happiness too. But this does not mean that people without these conditions cannot be happy.Overall, I think an ability to keep clear perspective
5、s in life is a more essential factor in achieving happiness. By that I mean an ability to have a clear sense of what is important in our lives (the welfare of our families, the quality of our relationships, making other people happy, etc.) and what is not (a problem at work, getting annoyed about tr
6、ivial things, etc.)Like self-awareness, this is also very difficult to achieve, but I think these are the two factors that may be the most important for achieving happiness.(2 )In many countries schools have severe problems with student behavior. What do you think are the causes of this? What soluti
7、ons can you suggest? Poor student behavior seems to be an increasingly widespread problem and I think that modern lifestyles are probably responsible for this.In many countries, the birth rate is decreasing so that families are smaller with fewer children. These children are often spoilt, not in ter
8、ms of love and attention because working parents do not have the time for this, but in more material ways.They are allowed to have whatever they want, regardless of price, and to behave asthey please. This means that the children grow up without consideration for others and without any understanding
9、 of where their standard of living comes from.When they get to school age they have not learnt any self-control or discipline. They have less respect for their teachers and refuse to obey school rules in the way that their parents did. Teachers continually complain about this problem and measures sh
10、ould be taken to combat the situation.But I think the solution to the problem lies with the families, who need to be more aware of the future consequences of spoiling their children. If they could raise them to be considerate of others and to be social, responsible individuals, the whole community w
11、ould benefit.Perhaps parenting classes are needed to help them to do this, and high quality nursery schools could be established that would support families more in terms of raising the next generation. The government should fund this kind of parental support, because this is no longer a problem for
12、 individual families, but for society as a whole.(3 )In some countries young people are encouraged to work or travel for a year between finishing high school and starting university studies. Discuss the advantages and disadvantages for young people who decide to do this. It is quite common these day
13、s for young people in many countries to have a break from studying after graduating from high school.The trend is not restricted to rich students who have the money to travel, but is also evident among poorer students who choose to work and become economically independent for a period of time.The re
14、asons for this trend may involve the recognition that a young adult who passes directly from school to university is rather restricted in terms of general knowledge and experience of the world.By contrast, those who have spent some time earning a living or travelling to other places, have a broader
15、view of life and better personal resources to draw on. They tend to be more independent, which is a very important factor in academic study and research., as well as giving them an advantage in terms of coping with the challenges of student life.However; there are certainly dangers in taking time of
16、f at that important age. Young adults may end up never returning to their studies or finding it difficult to readapt to an academic environment.They may think different from a university course. But overall, I think this is less likely today, when academic qualifications are essential for getting a
17、reasonable career.My view is that young people should be encouraged to broaden their horizons. That is the best way for them to get a clear perspective of what they are hoping to do with their lives and why. Students with such a perspective are usually the most effective and motivated ones and takin
18、g a year off may be the best way to gain this.(4 )Research indicates that the characteristics we are born with have much more influence on our personality and development than any experiences we may have in our life.Which do you consider to be the major influence?Today the way we consider human psyc
19、hology and mental development is heavily influenced by the genetic sciences.We now understand the importance to inherited characteristics more than ever before. Yet we are still unable to decide whether an individuals personality and development are more influenced by genetic factors (nature) or by
20、the environment (nurture).Research, relating to identical twins, has highlighted how significant inherited characteristics can be for an individuals life. But whether these characteristics are able to develop within the personality of an individual surely depends on whether the circumstances allow s
21、uch a development.It seems that the experiences we have in life are so unpredictable and so powerful, that they can boost or over-ride other influences, and there seems to be plenty of research finding s to confirm this.My own view is that there is no one major influence in a persons life. Instead,
22、the traits we inherit from our parents and the situations and experiences that we encounter in life are constantly interacting.It is the interaction of the two that shapes a persons personality and dictates ow that personality develops. If this were not true, then we would be able to predict the beh
23、avior and character of a person form the moment they were born.In conclusion, I do not think that either nature or nurture is the major influence on a person, but that both have powerful effects. How these factors interact is still unknown today and they remain largely unpredictable in a persons lif
24、e.(5)Successful sports professional can earn a great deal more money than people in other important professions. Some people think this is fully justified while think it is unfair. Discuss both these views and give your own opinion.As a result of constant media attention, sports professionals in my
25、country have become stars and celebrities, and those at the top are paid huge salaries. Just like movie stars, they live extravagant lifestyles with huge houses and cars.Many people find their rewards unfair; especially when comparing these super salaries with those of top surgeons or research scien
26、tists, or even leading politicians who have the responsibility of governing the country.However; sports salaries are not determined he or she holds. Instead, they reflect the public support that successful stars can generate. So the notion of fairness is not the issue.Those who feel that sports star
27、s salaries are justified might argue that the number of professionals with real talent are very fewz and the money is a recognition of the skills and dedication a person needs to be successful.Competition is constant and a player is tested every time they perform in their relatively short career.The
28、 pressure from the media is intense and there is little privacy out of the spotlight. So all of these factors mayjustify the huge earnings.Personally, I think that the amount of money such sports stars make is more justified than the huge earnings of movie stars, but at the same time, it indicates that our society places more value on sport than on more essential professions and achievements.
