9月25日超全考情回顾|独立口语解析+素材+综合写作真题还原

9月25日的考试已经结束啦

貌似今天听力有点难

独立写作题目虽然没命中不过题目很常见

只要之前好好准备过

或者有认真看过之前解析的都问题不大

独立口语疑似是一道新题

由原先的一道写作题目改编的

不管怎样总之考完就不要再想啦

来一起回顾一下考题

Task1

你是否同意以下说法？职业运动员不应该得到他们的高薪。

这道题目没有准备过的话确实容易一上来有点懵。之前很早的时候曾作为写作题目出现过，现在改编为一道新的口语题目再次出现。

ETS近些年越发喜欢口语写作题目互用，所以无论是在准备写作题目还是口语题目时，请务必注意扩展积累，务必做到一个题目无论是口语还是写作都能很快有一个清晰且合理的思路展开～

这道题目外教曾作为写作题目进行分析过，以下思路供各位参考，请注意素材积累，并分别考虑在口语与写作不同情况下的展开。

Agree

我同意职业运动员不应该得到他们的高薪。

I agree that professional athletes don't deserve the high salaries they get.

过高的工资导致很多运动员只是为了钱去参加职业运动。一些球员会为了额外的高薪而不顾集体利益违约，抛下他们的社区和忠实的球迷。甚至有的运动员为了得到更多的报酬而采取不法手段，比如服用兴奋剂。

Excessive salaries lead many athletes to play professional sports just for the money. Some players will break their contracts and leave their communities and loyal fans behind for the sake of extra high salaries regardless of their collective interests. Some athletes even resort to illegal tactics, such as doping, to get paid more.

有些人强调运动员的高薪与其所承担的风险相符。然而，即使运动员为了达到职业水平付出了很多努力，他们也不应该赚取数百万美元。那些警察和消防员同样以积极的方式影响社会，他们工作中承担的风险甚至高于运动员。与运动员相比，他们的工资却却很低。

Some emphasize that athletes' high salaries are commensurate with the risks they take. However, even if athletes put in a lot of effort to reach the professional level, they shouldn't have to earn millions of dollars. Those police officers and firefighters who also positively impact society take even more risks in their jobs than athletes. Compared to athletes, their salaries are pathetically low.

为了支付过高的运动员工资，球队老板为了保持球队运营收支平衡往往会增加门票价格或是减少相应服务来负担球员的高薪。这对于长期以往支持球队的球迷而言可能并不公平。

To pay the excessive salaries of athletes, team owners often increase ticket prices or curtail services to cover players' high salaries to maintain a break-even operation. This may not be fair to the fans who have supported the team for a long time.

为某一球星提供过高的工资可能会影响整个队伍的和谐氛围。毕竟比赛不是一个人的演出，而是集体共同的参与。少数球员的极高薪资可能会引起其他队友的不满或是心态失衡，这不利于整个队伍的发展。

Overpaying for a player may affect the harmony of the team. After all, the game is not a one-person show but collective participation. Extremely high salaries for a few players may cause dissatisfaction or imbalance in the mindset of other teammates, which is detrimental to the development of the entire team.

Disagree

我不同意这样的说法，在我看来职业运动员值得他们的高薪。

I disagree with the statement in the title. From my perspective, professional athletes deserve their high salaries.

职业运动员的高薪是他们通过无数艰苦的竞争和淘汰过程换来的。他们的职业生涯往往很有限，最佳的黄金阶段可能只有短短几年。一旦他们无法产生结果，他们就会离开，尽管他们可能已经为此付出了几十年的训练。

Professional athletes earn their high salaries through a myriad of grueling competition and elimination processes. Their careers are often limited, and their best prime may be just a few years. Once they fail to produce results, they are gone, even though they may have already trained for decades for it.

这是基本经济学。运动员之所以能赚到高薪，是因为供求。詹姆斯赚了疯狂的钱，因为人们愿意买他所在队伍的票，在电视上看他比赛，买球衣和各种纪念品。他惊人的工资代表着他的独一无二，很难被复制。他的价值是由市场决定的，而不是个人感情。简而言之，高端职业运动员的工资令人发指，因为他们创造了令人发指的收入——就这么简单。既然如此，为什么不应该给他们的工资反映他们的真实价值？

It's basic economics. Athletes earn high salaries because of supply and demand. LeBron James makes insane amounts of money because people are willing to buy tickets to his team, watch him play on TV, buy jerseys, and all sorts of memorabilia. His amazing salary represents that he is unique and hard to duplicate. His value is determined by the market, not personal feelings. In short, high-end professional athletes are paid outrageous salaries because they generate excessive income - it's that simple. If that's the case, why shouldn't they be paid wages that reflect their true value?

在某种程度上，运动员多数以伤害自身为代价来换取荣誉。就这一点来看，他们的高薪是值得的。在他们相对短暂的运动生涯中，伤病是其基础，并且将一直陪伴着他们一生。比如，很多运动员为了能够参加比赛，他们经常采取打封闭针这种会对自身造成永久损伤的方法来应对伤痛。

To some extent, most athletes trade glory at the expense of hurting themselves. For that matter, their high salaries are worth it. Injuries are the foundation of their relatively short athletic careers and will remain with them for the rest of their lives. For example, many athletes respond to injuries by often resorting to corticosteroid injections, which can cause permanent damage to themselves. For these reasons, I believe their salaries are fair and reasonable.

注意积累！切莫偷懒！！！

Reading section: 

Making community service required for high school graduation is not a GOOD idea.

1. Difficult to monitor; students may cheat, and the school has no way to monitor them; for example, if they do some work in their home garden, they will report that they helped their neighbor weed for two hours.

2. Students would feel that this is too utilitarian and would be reluctant to volunteer in the future; this would actually drive students away from community volunteering rather than closer to it. Forcing students to complete community volunteer service to receive a diploma will make them cynical, which is an ironic attitude toward such utilitarianism because people will not volunteer if there is no benefit.

3. Such a mandate is an infringement; it violates the students' rights.

Listening rebuttal: 

The three questions can be answered.

1. The community service required by the school is organized by specialized agencies, i.e., it must be an activity carried out by recognized associations, and there is a list of which activities can be counted.  For example, suppose a student wants to have their work recorded as gardening. In that case, he needs to participate in gardening on the list run by neighborhood associations and do it in a public spot to be counted.

2. After participating in community volunteering, many high school students have a good experience, which does not keep students away from volunteering. For example, some students who went to the hospital to serve and those who did tutor said they had a powerful and great experience. The school requirement just provided more opportunities for them to have these diverse experiences. This will strengthen their motivation to participate in volunteer work in the future.

3. The requirement to participate in volunteer activities does not violate students' rights. After all, they would have been required to attend school and would have been required to attend classes; just like schools require students to attend math classes, there is no infringement, and the students can learn more. So it's not a violation that they are required to do volunteer activities.

Do you agree or disagree with the following statement： 

Nowadays, children rely too much on the technology, like computers, smartphone, video games, for fun and entertainment. Playing simpler toys or playing outside with friends would be better for the children's development.

这道题在今年4月的家考中出现过。简而言之就是，你是否同意，玩更简单的玩具或与朋友在外面玩比依赖技术会更有利于孩子的发展。

这道题的内容绝对不陌生（如果陌生请去把之前的推送看一遍），可以参考的相似题目也非常多。比如真题库里的一道2020年2月的题目。有一定的借鉴性。

Some teachers believe that it is good for students to use digital devices (such as computers, smartphones or tablets) to do their schoolwork at school. Other teachers believe that in the 21st century, students should not use digital devices at school. Which opinion do you support and why? 20200215

以及机经预测中有道同源题目也可以进行参考

Some people think that some lessons for young children (age 5-8) which include video games can serve as effective and interesting ways of learning, while others think that these lessons are quite distracting and can be seen as a waste of time. What is your opinion and why? 20200923
