Today people in many countries live in a throw-away society where they use things for a short period of time and throw them away. What are the causes and what problems does the phenomenon lead to? (2019/12/14)
解析&審題
本題與(yu) 2018年9月8日高度相仿。2018年9月8日的題目明確了浪費型社會(hui) 對環境的影響，設問如何解決(jue) 這個(ge) 問題。本次考試中，問題是“消費型社會(hui) 產(chan) 生的原因及其帶來的問題”。可見，兩(liang) 次考試雖然是同一話題，但側(ce) 重點有所不同。這提醒我們(men) 大家，即使在看到自己以為(wei) 熟悉，甚至背誦過的題目時，也要花時間仔細閱讀問題，弄清楚題目中的問題，否則可能樂(le) 極生悲，導致考試失敗。 本周考的是一個(ge) 環境類的老題目。我們(men) 現在的社會(hui) 是一個(ge) 浪費型的社會(hui) （a throw-away society），隨處可見被扔棄不用的東(dong) 西。
本題要求分析這個(ge) 現象產(chan) 生的原因及其導致的問題。就原因而言，大家可能想到的生活水平提高了，物質太豐(feng) 富了，這是老雅經常談到的物質層麵上的原因。如果我們(men) 再往下想一想，可能就想到，我們(men) 扔掉舊東(dong) 西，可能還有一個(ge) 心理原因，即因為(wei) 技術的發展，新產(chan) 品不斷出現，從(cong) 而誘使我們(men) 使用新產(chan) 品；除此之外，當然還有一個(ge) 社會(hui) 層麵的原因，即消費社會(hui) 鼓勵大家扔棄舊東(dong) 西，換新時尚。
在這類分析原因類的考題中，大家都可以按照這三個(ge) 層麵去思考（或者寫(xie) 其中的兩(liang) 個(ge) 層麵），就容易寫(xie) 得更有邏輯一些。 那麽(me) ，這個(ge) 現象導致什麽(me) 問題呢？大家很容易想到汙染，用了就扔而不是回收利用當然會(hui) 導致汙染問題的產(chan) 生，但這種現象還可能導致一個(ge) 更深層次的問題，即資源浪費問題。
過於(yu) 追求時尚，會(hui) 造成社會(hui) 資源的浪費，不利於(yu) 整個(ge) 社會(hui) 的和諧發展。 我們(men) 在構思任何一篇雅思作文的時候，都應該寫(xie) 出層次，這是雅思作文批判思維的基本要求。各位烤鴨應該在這方麵積累經驗。
以下範文老雅在3500個(ge) 詞匯範圍內(nei) 操作，旨在給各位烤鴨一個(ge) 示範：沒有那些所謂高大上的詞匯，我們(men) 一樣可以寫(xie) 出高分來！

Ours is a throw-away society today where people tend to discard everything that is not new though repairable, while only a few decades ago, people would keep things and use them as long as possible until they were completely beyond repair.
There are mainly two reasons for people’s change of mind towards old things. At the most basic level, people today are financially better off than before. If they had to use and re-use the old things in the past, now they can afford to get rid of them and buy new ones. For example, it was very common that a TV set was kept for more than ten years, but now the time has been shortened to three years averagely.
Another important reason is that people may be forced to throw away old things and turn to new ones. Now new technologies are developing at a much faster speed than ever before, the consequence of which is that a product is quick to be replaced by its newer and better versions, and then the users have to buy them in order to enjoy their new features. As this goes on, more and more people will be drawn to the newest products, even if not for their new features, but as a fashionable habit.
Throwing away breeds over-consumption, which in turn will cause many problems for us, the most serious one of which is the pressure it imposes on the Earth’s natural resources. The more old things people throw away, the more new products need to be produced. This will definitely put our natural resources at risk. Another problem that a throw-away society has to deal with is the environmental pollution. As old things like furniture, washing machines, TV sets, and even cars are piling up, we have every reason to believe that they will make our neighborhood a less desirable place to live in.
