2017雅思寫作范文：學(xué)生是否需要學(xué)習(xí)國際新聞

　　Should secondary students study international news as one of their study projects. one think it is a waste of their valuable study time. Discuss both and tell your opinion.

　　中學(xué)生是否應(yīng)該把學(xué)習(xí)國際新聞作為學(xué)習(xí)項(xiàng)目之一?有人認(rèn)為這是浪費(fèi)他們寶貴的學(xué)習(xí)時(shí)間。討論雙方觀點(diǎn)并給出你的觀點(diǎn)。

　　思路分析：

　　1. 不該學(xué)： 國際新聞對(duì)于學(xué)生當(dāng)?shù)氐纳鐣?huì)而言太過遙遠(yuǎn)，和他們每天的學(xué)習(xí)和生活毫不相關(guān)。舉例，國外的各種政治丑聞，罷工，或是股票的起起落落，都無法教會(huì)孩子們?nèi)チ私猱?dāng)?shù)厣鐣?huì)，或是幫助他們?nèi)〉酶�好的學(xué)�？荚嚦煽�(jī)。

　　2. 應(yīng)該學(xué)： 首先，學(xué)習(xí)國際新聞開闊了學(xué)生的視野。舉例，通過學(xué)習(xí)國際新聞中的國外文化元素，孩子們能掌握一種跨文化理解力，這讓他們的海外旅行和留學(xué)不會(huì)犯二。

　　3. 還有，國際文化幫助孩子們變的更加成熟。舉例，在富裕的國家，孩子們總是花錢大手大腳，因?yàn)樗麄兊某砷L環(huán)境太安逸。當(dāng)他們看看那些關(guān)于非洲戰(zhàn)亂，饑餓和死亡的國際新聞之后，他們能學(xué)會(huì)珍惜他們的生活。

　　參考范文：

　　The world today has become quite dynamic and news stories develop almost every minute. Some people think reviewing the international news need to become a high school subject while another group disagrees. In my opinion, studying the news across the globe can shape these young viewers as well-informed citizens.

　　Admittedly, the main reason against such news is that it has nothing to do with students’ daily lives. For example, the breaking news in other countries or continents--such as political scandals, work strikes, ups and downs of stock market exchange, is too far from the regional situations to provide practical knowledge or instructions for local students. All they see and hear from the international news fail to reflect the truth and day-to-day changes of local community around them, or to improve their studying performance, or to teach them self-care skills for dealing with the challenges in a real world. In addition, the negative news from other countries including natural disasters, social violence and crimes, unnecessarily shock these young minds, thus trapping them into nervousness and anxiety. On this level, the assertion about the international news wasting time is proper.

　　However, I strongly believe the international news is highly valuable, to a large extent. Firstly, it is a wonderful means by which students’ minds can be broadened. For example, the international news reports inevitably contain a foreign culture from a certain country--from social manners to languages, from food to religious rituals. By being exposed to the exotic information, students can build up a cross-culture understanding, and their thoughts would become more flexible, adaptable and patient, when encountering with the cultural diversity in future travelling and studying abroad.

　　Besides, international news plays a role of catalyst for the maturity of youngsters. Actually, many teenagers in some rich countries are overindulged because they grow up in a peaceful, affluent, safe and healthy environment. More or less, they might squander money with no restraint. However, when watching the pictures and stories about Africa, like the massive starvation, epidemics, and the homelessness and death caused by civil wars, they begin to realize how happy their lives are. Then they can learn to spend money in moderation, cherish food and clothes, as well as turn into kind and charitable people with a willing of giving.

　　In conclusion, for young students in schools, there are more advantages of studying the global news over its disadvantages. Although it is possible that such studying is unpractical for their academic scores in school education or for daily lives, its benefits in cultivating youngsters as well-qualified generations with open, comprehensive and mature thoughts, can never be ignored.
