獨立口語思路解析

第一套

Do you agree or disagree with the following statement: It is impolite for tourists to take photos of local people without asking for permission?

是否同意：遊客不經允許就給當地人拍照是不禮貌的。

*本題重複2019年8月24日

答法一：同意

理由一：未經允許拍照可能侵犯隱私，尤其是在私人場合；

表述關(guan) 鍵詞：Violation of privacy and autonomy. Taking photos of locals without consent disregards their right to control their own image. Many people value privacy, especially in vulnerable or non-public settings.

理由二：它會(hui) 讓人覺得不被尊重或不舒服；很多人對陌生人未經允許就給他們(men) 拍照感到不安或尷尬，即使這與(yu) 文化信仰無關(guan) 。

表述關(guan) 鍵詞：It can make people feel disrespected or uncomfortable. Many people feel upset or embarrassed when strangers take their photo without asking, even if it’s not about cultural beliefs.

答法二：拍照隻是為(wei) 了記錄真實的文化

理由一：照片捕捉日常生活的真實時刻，為(wei) 教育或藝術目的保留文化真實性。

表述關(guan) 鍵詞：Photos capture genuine moments of daily life, preserving cultural authenticity for educational or artistic purposes.

理由二：在許多社會(hui) 中，在公共場合被拍照被認為(wei) 是正常的；比如，遊客用拍攝熱鬧的意大利廣場，包括當地人聊天或用餐，不太可能引起冒犯。

表述關(guan) 鍵詞：

A tourist taking a wide-angle shot of a lively Italian piazza, including locals chatting or dining, is unlikely to cause offense.

#02學術寫(xie) 作思路解析

Doctor Achebe:

Today, let's discuss about the effect of different transportation means. Short-distance air travel is increasingly criticized for its environmental impact. Air travel generates significantly higher carbon emissions per passenger than trains, up to10 times more on routes under 500 miles. Critics argue replacing such flights with rail could curb emissions. Should governments ban short flights? Explain why.

Claire:

I think short flights should be banned. Planes emit significantly more carbon per passenger than trains. Switching to trains for short trips, like Paris to Brussels or Tokyo to Osaka, would drastically reduce carbon footprints. Trains also often connect city centers directly, avoiding lengthy airport commutes. Giving priority to rail travel helps promote global sustainability.

Andrew:

Restricting short flights is impractical. People should choose transportation based on their needs. For urgent business trips, medical emergencies, or tight schedules, planes save critical time, which is a 2-hour flight versus a 6-hour train ride. Additionally, not all regions have reliable rail networks; imposing bans could isolate areas lacking alternatives. Instead of restricting options, governments should innovate cleaner fuels for planes.

思路：

讚同Claire，覺得應該禁止短途飛行，因為(wei) rail travel享有和air travel一樣甚至更多的好處。

現代的高科技的rail transportation在升級後擁有同樣快速/便捷/優(you) 質的乘坐體(ti) 驗-無需提前候機和複雜安檢-rail station也不會(hui) 像airport那樣遠離居住區-能夠更節約時間/更有效率-這樣rail travel享有和air travel一樣甚至更多的好處。
