话题分类:环境类
文字版解读如下:
今天我们要讲解的题目与环境问题有一定关系,涉及到最佳选择(best)这一类的题目。在这种类型的题目中,我建议大家不要直接表态同意某个观点,因为很难确定到底什么才是最好的选择。从反向的角度进行分析,往往能帮助我们更好地理解问题,得出更有力的结论。
题目当中我已经提供了一个思路和观点,那我们也可以说,为了真正解决环境问题,我们需要更加多元化的应对策略。
例如,推动绿色技术的创新、改进废物回收系统、提倡可再生能源的使用等。单一的依赖本地资源并不能全面解决问题,反而可能带来新的环境风险。
03、参考范文
Introduction:I disagree with the statement that the most effective solution to current environmental problems is to only use resources produced locally.
🚩Tips:开头可以稍微简短一些,可以省略掉背景直接进入讨论。
译文参考:我不同意“解决当前环境问题最有效的办法是仅使用本地生产的资源”这一说法。
Body Paragraph 1Granted, relying solely on these resources can help ease pollution to some extent. Transporting goods from other regions, especially from foreign countries where air travel is required, takes a significant toll on the environment. It not only worsens air quality, as vehicles and aircraft emit harmful gases, but also consumes a large amount of fuel. Therefore, restricting resource use to local production can shorten the distances products need to travel, thereby mitigating air pollution and reducing fuel consumption. This is especially important for perishable goods, which require additional refrigeration during transportation, leading to the emission of thousands of tons of carbon dioxide and significantly contributing to global warming. Additionally, this practice can reduce dependence on imported goods, encouraging more sustainable consumption patterns and further addressing environmental concerns.
重点词汇/语料:granted– 诚然take a toll on- 对某事有损害perishable– 易腐的,容易变质的refrigeration– 冷藏,冷却emit– 排放,散发carbon dioxide– 二氧化碳sustainable– 可持续的consumption patterns– 消费模式mitigate– 缓解,减轻
🚩Tips:
这是个让步段,在一定程度上同意对方的观点,认为使用本地资源是一个很好的想法,因为它确实能够通过降低排放和减少资源消耗,在一定程度上缓解环境问题。
译文参考:
诚然,仅依赖这些资源在一定程度上有助于缓解污染。从其他地区,尤其是需要航空运输的外国进口商品,对环境造成了巨大负担。这不仅会恶化空气质量,因为车辆和飞机排放有害气体,还会消耗大量燃料。因此,将资源使用限制在本地生产可以缩短产品运输的距离,从而减少空气污染和燃料消耗。
对于易腐产品来说,这一点尤为重要,因为它们在运输过程中需要额外的冷藏,这会导致数千吨二氧化碳的排放,并显著加剧全球变暖。此外,这种做法还能减少对进口商品的依赖,鼓励更可持续的消费模式,并进一步应对环境问题。
Body Paragraph 2
However, limiting resource use to local production is only a superficial solution that does not address the fundamental cause of environmental degradation, which is over-reliance on fossil fuels. Even if a region depends solely on local resources, excessive reliance on nonrenewable energy sources will continue to harm the environment, as frequent short-distance car trips can also emit toxic gases. Instead, investing in clean energy sources, such as solar, wind, and hydroelectric power, would be a more effective long-term solution. Moreover, this practice may not be feasible for many regions. Some areas lack essential natural resources, making complete self-sufficiency impossible. Therefore, a strict policy that only allows for the use of locally produced raw materials could lead to greater environmental harm if unsuitable land is over-exploited to meet demand, ultimately defeating the policy’s original purpose.
重点词汇/语料:
superficial– 表面的,浅薄的
degradation– 退化,恶化over-reliance/excessive reliance– 过度依赖toxic gases– 有毒气体hydroelectric power– 水力发电feasible– 可行的,行得通的self-sufficiency– 自给自足over-exploited– 过度开发,过度利用defeatsth’s original purpose– 和某事最初的目的背道而驰
🚩Tips:这段话的中心思想也可以用于其他和【best】相关的题目。首先,尽管使用本地资源看似有其优势,但它存在致命缺陷。毕竟,这种做法并不完全可行,因为一些国家或地区根本无法做到自给自足,强行限制资源使用可能会导致环境破坏。其次,这一做法并没有触及问题的根本原因,即过度依赖化石燃料。
译文参考:
然而,限制资源使用仅限于本地生产只是一个表面性的解决方案,并没有解决环境退化的根本原因——对化石燃料的过度依赖。即使一个地区仅依赖本地资源,过度依赖不可再生能源仍然会继续伤害环境,因为频繁的短途汽车出行也会排放有毒气体。
相反,投资于清洁能源,如太阳能、风能和水力发电,将是更有效的长期解决方案。此外,这种做法对于许多地区可能并不可行。一些地区缺乏必要的自然资源,完全自给自足是不可能的。
因此,一项只允许使用本地生产原材料的严格政策可能会导致更大的环境危害,如果不适宜的土地被过度开垦以满足需求,最终可能会适得其反,违背该政策最初的目的。
Conclusion
In conclusion, while using local resources can help reduce transportation-related emissions, it is not the most idealway to address environmental issues, as it is neither entirely practical nor capable of solving the problem at its core.·
🚩Tips:结尾也可以稍微简短一些,就是对立场的paraphrase,但是最好把前面两段的观点用另外一种方式强调一下,更加扣题
译文参考:总之,虽然使用本地资源可以帮助减少与运输相关的排放,但这并不是解决环境问题的最理想方式,因为它既不完全实用,也无法从根本上解决问题。
