To what extent do you agree or disagree? 2 Some people think that good health is i

2、mportant to everyone, so medical services should not be run by profit-making companies. Do the disadvantages of private health care outweigh the advantages? 3 Some people say that governments should pay for public health care and education, while others say that it is not the governments responsibil

3、ity. Please discuss both views and give your opinion. 4 Some people believe that air travel should be restricted because it causes serious pollution and uses up the worlds fuel resources. To what extent do you agree or disagree? 雅思写作（综合）模拟试卷 4答案与解析 一、 WRITING TASK 2 You should spend about 40 minutes

4、 on this task. 1 【正确答案】 Countries are making great strides in scientific research today, but the optimal structure for it, that is, whether it should be controlled and carried out by the government is still a debate among many. Some people claim that it is important for the government to control sci

5、entific research. They point out that many researches are in the national interest and involve highly classified information, such as research into nuclear technology and military development, so of course they should only be carried out by the government. Also, sometimes scientific research is desi

6、gned and conducted purely for the advancement of knowledge or the study of theories, which means results cannot be guaranteed, and there is little incentive for the private sector to invest in these areas; therefore, governments need to take a leading role in such kind of research. Others, however,

7、argue that there are reasons for private companies to participate in scientific research. They believe that research conducted in corporate labs is more closely alligned with market needs research into medicine and cosmetics, for example, which is not always a governmental priority. Besides, private

8、-owned institutes have certain advantages in financing scientific research and their profit motive tends to result in a more efficient allocation of resources .Thus, obviously, it is necessary for the private sector to invest in this area. Overall, I think that both the government and the private se

9、ctor should be actively involved in scientific research and more encouragement should be given to the cooperation and coordination between different research institutes including state-owned research organisations, universities and corporate labs etc. to accelerate the development of technology so a

10、s to benefit human life on a larger scale. 【知识模块】 写作 2 【正确答案】 A great deal of debate has been raised in recent decades over the issue of “two-tier“ health care. That is, while the public system is struggling, there is a dispute going on over whether or not the usage of private hospitals should be pr

11、omoted. People who oppose a two-tier system say that it may result in one system that is far better than the other, attracting the best doctors and the best equipment, and that those who cannot afford private or do not wish to pay will only be able to obtain second-rate healthcare. But it is very ha

12、rd to imagine why people should be denied more choices in medical service when the only governmental challenge is to make sure that no citizen is deprived of appropriate medical care because of financial need. As a matter of fact, a private health care system grants freedom to choose the medical ser

13、vice suitable for different patients and promises increased efficiency at low prices due to competition and specialised institutions. Many people today are choosing private medical service to gain the reassurance of knowing that treatment is available promptly in the event of illness or injury. Also

14、, more people are willing to turn to some private hospitals because stiff competition drives them to keep offering better services with lower costs. Another thing that cannot be ignored is that privatised medical system tends to promote innovations in medical science. Compared to the public sector,

15、profit-making companies have more sources of capital and larger tolerance for risks. So while the government is having a hard time guaranteeing the basic demands for health care, private-owned companies play an important part in the research and development of advanced treatment and new drugs. So ov

16、erall, I believe that the advantages of private health care far outweigh any disadvantages and that private, profit-making companies should be encouraged to enter the health care market to compete with the public sector. 【知识模块】 写作 3 【正确答案】 How to finance the increasing costs of healthcare and educat

17、ion has become a major concern to many. While some insist that they should be provided by governments for free, others think otherwise, holding that it is not the responsibility of the government. Generally, I believe that government should cover some part of the bills at least. A sound health care

18、system and quality education for its citizens are fundamental and essential to the well-being of a country, so they should be among the top priorities of a governments agenda, along with other issues such as sovereignty and national security etc. That is to say that the government has the responsibi

19、lity to take care of its people in terms of their health and education. It is also true that the budget of the government is not unlimited, and there are simply too many issues that need to be dealt with and paid for. It is imaginable that taxes will definitely be raised if all the costs of public h

20、ealthcare and education are paid by the government. This is especially true in some developing countries with huge populations. Obviously, too much taxation imposed on individuals is not justified. Therefore, I think a good way to take care of this issue is that part of the healthcare cost and educa

21、tion fees are covered by the government, especially for those economically disadvantaged people and families. At the same time, quality private healthcare and education systems should be encouraged and monitored by some legislation and authorities to make sure that most kinds of medical and educatio

22、nal demands are met while governments finite budget will not be exhausted. To conclude, the government has an indispensible role to play in developing a healthy and educated society, but the financial burden on its shoulder should not be neglected. 【知识模块】 写作 4 【正确答案】 Aeroplanes are becoming the top

23、choice of transportation for more and more people, as they are by far the fastest way to travel between cities and countries. While some people claim air travel should be limited because of its massive emissions of carbon dioxide and relatively high fuel consumption, I personally think that they are

24、 oversimplifying the situation. Admittedly, air travel produces greenhouse gases and is fuel-consuming, but one fact that needs to be highlighted is that the main source of the worlds emissions is private cars rather than aeroplanes. Further, alternative energies are being explored and some have alr

25、eady come into being. It is imaginable that in the near future planes will be powered by cleaner energy. Besides, industrial pollution is still the number one source of pollution, so it is unfair and unreasonable to blame all these on air travel or even put restrictions on it. Rather, air travel pla

26、ys an irreplaceable role in our daily lives and world economy. The most obvious merit of travelling by air is its speed, which means geographical limitations are not a problem any more. Every hour of every day, millions of business and leisure travellers alike are taking advantage of aeronautical te

27、chnology to hurtle safely through the air in a metal tube. People are therefore granted the chance to be able to attend a meeting in a different city or visit an old friend living far away and make it home the very next day or even the same day if needs be. Thus, the convenience and efficiency of li

28、fe has been improved dramatically, and we are actually leading a lifestyle that used to be completely impossible. On a larger scale, the system of air travel, more importantly, supports the global economy by connecting business across the world. Companies today have many offices overseas, countries

29、import and export goods between each other on a daily basis. Without aeroplanes, none of this would be easy, or perhaps even exist. So overall, I am optimistic about the future of air travel and firmly believe that, as one of the most important parts of the worlds transportation infrastructure, it should be invested in and developed even more. 【知识模块】 写作
