雅思大作文中的法律与犯罪类话题

时间: 腾宇1219 分享

  A类的雅思大作文大致可以分为教育,社会,科技,政府政策,大众媒体,法律和犯罪这么六大类的题目,而其中学生们普遍反映最怵的,感觉最无从下手的题目当属法律与犯罪类型的题目。虽然说出题频率相对来说并不是非常的频繁,但是如果学生在备考中没有进行合理有效的对此类话题具有针对性的总结和复习的话,相信很难在写作中取得什么理想的分数。下面是小编为您收集整理的雅思大作文中的法律与犯罪类话题,供大家参考!

  雅思大作文中的法律与犯罪类话题

  1. Can capital punishment (death penalty) ever be justified?

  是否应该有死刑?

  这个题目可以说是一谈到法律犯罪这一大类话题时,最会经常谈到的问题。对于大多数中国雅思考生,尤其是高中生,大学生,如果没有事先经过精心准备的话,对这个题目恐怕只能是傻眼了。关于这个话题,大致可以分成以下这几个分论点来展开:

  Arguments against capital punishment

  1. 死刑只是对罪犯的一种处罚,而并不能够将犯罪行为中受害者生命挽回,或者赔偿其所遭受的伤害

  Capital punishment, which even though manages to bring the criminals to justice, could by no means compensate for physical, mental and psychological sufferings inflicted on victims, or in some extreme cases, bring back their lives.

  2. 无论一个人犯多大的错误,其他人都无权剥夺其生命。 (人权)

  It is entirely unjustified to deprive one of his/her rights to live regardless of how insanely severe and cruel the offenses he/she has committed are. (This subject matter has boiled to the controversial issue of human rights)

  3. 死刑犯的尸体的处理(是否可以用于器官移植等等)将是一个非常具有争议的道德问题。

  How the body of the deceased criminal is going to be disposed of (used for organ transplant, for instance) will be bound to raise grave both ethical and social implications.

  Arguments for capital punishment

  1. 如果死刑犯没有受到最为严厉的惩罚,那么这对受害者是不公平的。

  It would be only fair for the victims if the criminals are subject to the greatest fear of all- death.

  2. 如果死刑取消的话,那么很多潜在的罪犯就不会顾忌做出一些极为可怕的犯罪行为。

  If capital punishment is ever to be done away with, the potential wrong-doers wouldn’t be deterred from committing staggeringly serious offenses among which serial murder proves particularly appalling.

  2. Should criminals be sent to prisons or placed on education and job retraining?

  类似的题目之前曾经考过,而在今年的1月12日再次出现。对于这个题目,很多学生会非常容易的陷入一个陷阱(pitfall),那就是认为说如果让学生接受教育或就业培训的话,那就是等同于有充分的人身自由了。其实不然,这里的教育或就业培训并不代表说把囚犯与普通的学生或接受培训者一样等同的对待,而是一样的要限制他们的自由,只不过说不像在监狱里整天关在牢房里无所事事,而是要接受教育和培训。关于这个题目,其实就变成了一个两者之间的对比,可以从以下几个方面进行论述。

  1. 监狱同教育或就业培训相比有很强的阻吓作用,这样可以有效的抑制犯罪率的上升。

  In stark contrast to placing criminals on educational courses or employment retraining, prisons appeared more effective in deterring potential, would-be wrongdoers from committing crimes, thus drastically decreasing the likelihood of rising crime rate.

  2. 监狱更多的对罪犯来说是一种惩罚,因此能够避免再犯。

  Being locked up behind the bars is a punitive measure imposed on criminals who are highly unlikely to turn into a recidivist in consideration of their fear of setting foot into jails ever again.

  Arguments for education and job retraining

  1. 罪犯在监狱里所被包围的是一群囚犯,这对罪犯的改造不是好的,反而是不好的影响。接受教育可以让罪犯在一个积极的环境里,真正的意识到对与错。

  “Captivity of negativity” is a terminology intended to describe the destructive, rather than constructive impact on criminals who are locked up in prison, surrounded by people who probably have committed even more serious charges. Education serves to correct any misconception or eliminate twisted thoughts they have by immersing them in a positive environment.

  2. 大多数罪犯往往是没有什么文化知识和生存技能,出狱后通常很难找到工作。教育和就业培训能够让他们在日后的生活中靠自己生存下去,而不至于因为没有收入来源而再次误入歧途。

  A significant proportion of criminals are sadly illiterate without adequate fundamental knowledge and survival skills and it wouldn’t be easy for them to find a decent job after being released from the jail. With convenient access to education and job retraining, they are able to survive by themselves, greatly reducing the chance of becoming a recidivist in times when they are financially challenged.

  3. Should individual choices interfere with the society that is based on rules and laws

  这是今年10月11号的考题,这道题目主要讨论的核心是一种矛盾。那就是社会始终是以法规和法律为基础的,而有时社会的利益往往是与个人的选择相矛盾的。当这种矛盾发生时,应该将哪一个放在首位?为什么?这次考试结束后,我曾经与几个参与考试的学生讨论过,很多学生的反映就是这个题目其实并不难,但就是不知道如何下手。还有某位学生直接就举了一个我们不能随便杀人,因为这是违反法律的事情的这样一个例子。其实,这个题目最为关键的是两点:如何去法律的范围还有就是要找到一个合适法律与个人选择发生冲突的这么一个结合点。我对这个题目的段落结构以及内容的理解如下:

  1.这种矛盾的产生主要是因为法律法规是从大众和国家的利益出发,而个人利益则绝大多数情况下是站在个人角度考虑问题的。一个有利于个人的问题如果给其他人造成了无谓的伤害,则是不应该允许的。

  The conflict of public interest and personal interest accounts largely for the issue of the extent to which is the interference of personal choices justified with the society governed by rules and laws.

  雅思写作9分范文:警察佩戴枪的利弊

  下面这篇在2004年考过两次,内容比较难写,很多考生都构思不出内容,因此,我请我的美国朋友按照雅思作文的套路写了篇范文,大家可以学习一下里面的语言和内容。

  Unlike most countries, the police in the United Kingdom do not normally carry guns. Some people think it leaves the citizens unprotected, while others believe that this practice reduces the overall violence in society. Discuss both views and use your own experience and evidence.

  Unlike most countries, the police in the United Kingdom do not normally carry guns. Some people think it leaves citizens unprotected, while others believe that this practi c e reduces the overall violence in society. Police having guns however is an issue secondary to criminals having guns. (45words)

  结构分析:“2+1”模式,最后一句为主题句,明确地表达了自己的观点。但是,前两句的问题很严重,即照抄了题目。(这可能是我和老外没有沟通好,在他所写的所有例文中都出现了类似的情况,大家千万不要学!)

  . Because criminals usually have access to guns, police officers need them in order to control crime. If police in the U.K. are able to go without guns and not have crime getting completely out of control then they have already set a fine example that other countries should follow. The fact that they are able to do this is an indication of their ability to control the flow of guns to the general populace and this makes citizens safer than anything else. To a civilian, taking guns away from criminals is more important than giving them to police. (98words)

  For places that are not able to, or are unwilling to control this availability of guns to criminals, police have no choice. Countries with weak or ineffective gun laws, or countries bordering such countries, like Mexico which has strong gun laws, but virtually no way to prevent them from being smuggled over the border from the U.S., need a police force that is not only armed, but is armed better than the criminals. This ‘domestic arms race’ is the fate of any country that does not realize that civilians have no need of being armed and should have no access to weapons whatsoever.(103words)

  The root of the problem is embarrassingly corrupt governments and ineffective half-measures taken to control the circulation of guns, which allows criminals to easily come into possession of guns. Nations around the world should hope to someday reach the point where their police force can afford not to carry guns and still be effective. (54words)
