雅思大作文题目
当今时代不需要动物食品或动物产品了吗?
In modern world, it is no longer necessary to use animals for food or use animal products, for instance, clothing and medicines. To what extent do you agree or disagree?
解析&审题
本题是2016年3月12日原题重现。
有人说,现在我们不需要食用动物,或者不需要使用动物产品了,你同意吗?
动物保护者当然会同意,理由很简单,当今的科技已经可以制造食品来替代动物食品,也不再需要用动物的皮毛制品来保暖。同时,斩杀动物可能破坏环境平衡,从而使人类自身遭殃。
但是,如果完全拒绝动物食品,人类的营养又会成问题。所以,不妨这样破题:将动物分成野生动物和家养动物,对于野生动物,我们不能过度猎杀以保护环境平衡,但将家养动物作为食品,或者药品,则是可以的以保证人类充足营养。
这里使用的破题技巧是:将animal进行分类,然后分别讨论。这是写作破题的一种常用技巧,即将题目中的关键词进行分类细化,然后根据不同类别进行讨论。

Nowadays, some people think it unnecessary for us touse animals for food, clothing, or medicines any longer because modern technology has found thesubstitutes for them. While I certainly agree that now we do not have to kill wild animals for the purpose of our survival, I think we need food from domestic animals for our health.
现在,许多人认为我们不再有必要使用动物制成的食物、衣服和药品,因为现代科技已经找到了它们的代替品。尽管我十分同意我们现在无需为了生存而杀害野生动物,但我认为为了我们的健康,我们需要以家禽家畜为食。
解析
(1) 文章段提出自己观点:人类无需为了生存而杀害野生动物,但为了健康,仍需要以家禽家畜为食。这里看出,本题解题关键在于,将animal分为两类:一类是野生动物,另一类是家养动物,然后分别讨论我们对两类动物的态度。
(2) think it unnecessary for sb. to do sth. 认为做什么是没必要的
(3) substitute (for sth.)n. …的替代品

On the one hand, we should protect wild animals, especially the endangered species of animals and recognize their importance to the entire eco-system. Some people hunt after endangered animals just to make beautiful clothes. This kind of behavior should be prohibited. Hunting rare animals will lead to their extinction and affect the animal diversity, which is detrimental to the balance between nature and animal. Therefore, wild animals ought to be protected, and we can’t satisfy our own pleasure at the price of their extinction.
一方面,我们应该保护野生动物——尤其是濒危物种,也应该承认它们对整体生态系统的重要性。有些人仅仅是为了制作美丽的衣服就猎杀濒危动物,这种行为应当被禁止。猎杀珍稀动物将会导致其灭绝,影响生物多样性,这对动物和自然界之间的平衡十分有害。因此,野生动物应该受到保护,我们不能为了满足自己的利益而以他们的灭绝为代价。
解析
(1) 本段主要阐释野生动物有利于生物多样性和生态系统的平衡,因而野生动物应该受到保护,人类的利益不应以动物的灭绝为代价。
(2) recognize 承认,recognize their importance to 承认…对…的重要性
(3) at the price of 以…为代价

But we still need some domestic animals such as chickens and ducks to supply our daily diet and nutrition. As we all know, meat provides a variety of nutrition that is difficult to obtain from vegetables and fruit. Some microelements in the meat can help prevent diseases too. For the sake of human beings’ health, we need to balance our diet so that it contains both meat and vegetables. It seems that it’s impossible to completely remove meat from our table. The same is true to clothing. The hide of animals like cow and sheep can strengthen the durability of the clothes.
但我们仍旧需要一些家禽,例如鸡鸭等,来提供我们日常饮食所需要的营养。正如我们都知道,肉类能提供各类难以在蔬菜和水果中获取的营养。有些肉类中的微量元素还能预防疾病。为了人类的健康,我们需要平衡饮食结构,既要有肉类也要有蔬菜。我们似乎无法完全将肉类从餐桌上移除。而衣服也是一样。诸如牛皮和羊皮的动物皮毛能增强衣服的耐久性。
(1) 本段主要阐释动物在人类饮食结构和衣着中的必要性(能平衡人的饮食结构增加衣服的耐久性)。
(2) a variety of=various/a range of/diverse 注意“多种多样”的同义表达
(3) for the sake of 为了…起见
04
To sum up, while modern technology has made it quite necessary for us to kill wild animals to keep us from hunger and cold, we are still in great need of animal products for our own benefits. 总的来说,尽管现代科技使我们没有必要通过杀害野生动物来远离饥饿和寒冷,但为了自身的利益,我们仍十分需要动物产品。
解析
(1) 本段得出结论:我们仍旧十分需要动物产品。
(2) To sum up 表示总结,看了这么多关于总结的表达,“考鸭”们能想到什么同义替换呢?
(3) be in great need of 十分需要
