GRE写作：如何解决论据素材.doc

GRE写作：如何解决论据素材 gre写作时如何解决论据素材，还是平时需要多积累?今天给大家带来GRE写作如何解决论据素材，希望能够帮助到大家，下面就和大家分享，来欣赏一下吧。GRE写作：如何解决论据素材其实，如果你留心观察生活，就会发现，生活中到处都是好例子，遗憾的是，我们从来没有想过把它们变成GRE写作的一部分。那么该怎么去发现这些好例子呢?方法其实也很简单：首先，你必须要很熟悉题库。很多老师对issue部分的题目都有分类，网上也有很多这方面的资料。其实不论是何种分类方法，你都必须要通过分类对整个244道题库有个全面的了解，知道ETS会考什么，不会考什么。接下来，有了对题库的了解之后，这是你会发现，有些生活中看似无关的事情，突然变得有用了。这里，我就以一个八杆子打不着的"犀利哥"给大家做个示范。犀利哥的背景大家都熟，这里就不多介绍了。可是他的事情怎么就能写到GRE作文里呢?首先，犀利哥是一个普通的流浪人员，但是却一夜暴红，这和媒体的炒作不无关系。而我们的issue题库中，就有很多讨论媒体对公众影响的题目。这时，犀利哥就是个媒体影响很好的证明。其次，犀利哥的出名也反映了当今社会对外表和时尚的狂热。人们完全无视他是个有精神障碍的病人，而只是因为他的穿着恰好符合当时的审美趋势而追捧他。这在讨论到issue33题"外表和内在那个更重要的时候"也非常适合。当然，这个例子还可以用来讨论公众隐私(29, 161题)和快餐文化(107， 151， 215等题)中，这里就不多解释。根据刚刚的分析，我们就很容易把犀利哥的例子，按照事件的积极消极意义，整理成下面的一些要点：Positive side：1)Medias magic power to turn a nobody into somebody overnight2)Medias role in bringing public attention to the misfortune and the helpless who may otherwise be neglected and discarded by the societyNegative side:1)The worlds over-emphasis on the appearance, not on the inner-self. By turning a homeless to a fashion model, the story of Brother Xili is just an extreme case of many.2)The frenetic pursuit of instant fame and interests by modern people dwarfs the most fundamental basis of human nature: love, equality, respect and compassion.3)The world only cares about the "fashionable" photos of Brother Xili and flocks to Ningbo to see him in person. But no one really cares about him as a person, a man with mental disorder, a brother that needs our care and love, not relentless media exposure and disturbance.GRE写作素材之亚里士多德Aristotle 384BC - 322BCGreek philosopher, scientist, physician. One of the greatest figures in the history of Western thought, Aristotle was born in Stagira, Macedonia. In 367 BC, he went to Athens, where he was associated with Platos Academy until Platos death in 347 BC. He then spent time in Asia Minor and in Mytilene (on Lesbos). In 342 BC he was invited by Philip of Macedon to educate his son, Alexander (later, the Great). He returned to Athens (335 BC) and opened a school (the Lyceum); his followers were called Peripatetics, supposedly from his practice of walking up and down restlessly during his lectures. After Alexanders death (323 BC), there was strong anti-Macedonian sentiment in Athens; Aristotle was accused of impiety and, perhaps with Socrates fate in mind, escaped to Chalcis in Euboea, where he died the next year.Aristotles writings represented an enormous, encyclopedic output over virtually every field of knowledge: logic, metaphysics, ethics, politics, rhetoric, poetry, biology, zoology, physics, and psychology. The bulk of the work that survives actually consists of unpublished material in the form of lecture notes or students textbooks; but even this incomplete corpus is extraordinary for its range, originality, systematization, and sophistication.His work exerted an enormous influence on mediaeval philosophy (especially through St Thomas Aquinas), Islamic philosophy (especially through Averro?s), and indeed, on the entire Western intellectual and scientific tradition. The works most read today include Metaphysics, Nicomachean Ethics, Politics, Poetics, De anima and the Organon (treatises on logic).GRE写作满分范文赏析"The media (books, film, music, television, for example) tend to create rather than reflect the values of a society."The media does tend to create rather than reflect the values of a society.One example of this observation is the fact that the media is owned, controlled and used my a segment of the population that is usually out of touch with the realities of groups within the society it covers. . . For example, the gangster rappers have gained a reputation for being women hating, anti-authority, and violent. Before, the MTV and V-H1 and CNN provided coverage to these groups, theyre were limited to street sales and specific areas that w ere not mainstream. Thanks to national coverage in print and broadcast, these groups becaome more popular because it was "different" and taboo. The lyrics, dances, and fashion statements portrayed became big money items and surburbanited people were intrigued withe this counter-culture. They began to act, talk and behave like the lyrics espressed. Continued media fenzy contributed to kids wanting to become more familiar with this culture, thereby creating an atmosphere or arena for this counter-culturre to legitimate. The media created these values but these vlaues of the gangster rapeer do not reflect the actual values of the society.Another example of the media creating the values of a society is the coverage of the modeling industry. Clearly, most women neither want to or can look like Kate Moss. The typical Calvin Klein male models do not appear the way most men are naturally. This look is both unhealthy and atypical of most humans. Nevertheless, thanks to the medias coverage, including magazine advocating, newspapers ads, and commercials to sell products, a large portion of this society has done everything from liposuction to becoming bullimic to attain a supermodel look. If the media does not cover the indutrsy in such a manner, a growing number of people would not care about the skeletal look of kate Moss or any other unrealistic physical attrubutes that are usually genetically or surgically produced. The media creates this image of how men and women should look thereby creating the values of this society. These values would be totally different without the medias negative influence.Lastly, when the media chooses to focus on pervers and negative, and unhealthy aspects of a society, then that part of society becomes the "values of that society. Gangster rap or anorexic models could not possibly have made it without the medias concentrated coverage of either.Comments:This response presents an adequate discussion of the topic. After a succinct announcement of the writers position on the issue, the paper develops two relevant examples: musicians ("gangster rappers") who have negatively influenced peoples behavior and superstar models who have negatively influenced peoples self-image.Although the examples are well chosen and support the writer抯 position, they are not always clearly explained. For example, the writer claims that "most women neither want to nor can look like Kate Moss" but then contradicts that claim by explaining that "a large portion of this society has done everything from liposuction to becoming bullimic to attain a supermodel look."In general, the vocabulary is clear, but not particularly precise. Sentences are formed correctly, but they lack effective variety. Grammatical and mechanical errors occur, but they do not seriously interfere with meaning. In almost every way, this is an adequate response and earns a score of 4.GRE写作：如何解决论据素材
