2021年6月17雅思大作文题目

More and more people are becoming seriously overweight. Some people say that raising the price of fattening food will solve this problem. To what extent do you agree or disagree?

范文及解析

Introduction

A conundrum of modern societies is the declining level of health in the general population, such as corpulence, with conflicting views on how to tackle this worrying trend. One possible remedy is to increase the price of fattening food to encourage a healthier diet.

【解析】题目与新出的剑16某题十分相似

☀ conundrum n. 难题

☀ corpulence n. 肥胖，臃肿

Concession + Refutation

Admittedly, such practice could to some extent alleviate the tension. Advocates of this solution deem that today’s prevalent food delivery services and easy-to-reach oily food mean that diet beverage and food are no longer part of some citizens’ lives. If the price of such high-calorie food was raised, the general public who live on a tight budget would be more likely to consume cheaper yet low-fat alternatives, rather than just collapse in front of screen every evening, with fried chicken and cola in hand. However, such measure fails to uproot the problem, since the relatively rich may not be acute to the raising price.

【解析】题干虽然乍一眼看没有像only, best一类常规极端词，但是solve这个动词需揣摩：真的能“根除”这个问题嘛？还是只是“缓解”？这会是我们的切入点。

☀ alleviate vt. 缓解

☀ easy-to-reach adj. 容易获得的

☀ diet adj. 低脂肪的，低糖的

☀ uproot vt. 根除

Argument

As a matter of fact, there may be better ways of tackling this crisis. In most cases, excessive intake of unhealthy food can be ascribed to people’s absence of awareness of how much oil and fat those products contain. In other words, hardly do consumers have a clear understanding of the nutrients listed on the package and thus neglect the repercussions of over-adsorption. In this sense, some talks should be available both online and off-line to inform citizens about the function of ingredient labels. // Besides, high tax penalties could be imposed on high-fat food products, whereas awards could be bestowed upon healthy ones. Hence, more businesses would be motivated to develop and produce diet food products.

【解析】提出其他更切实更能“根除”这种问题的方法

☀ intake n. 摄入

☀ penalty n. 惩罚

☀ bestow sth. upon sb. 给予某人某物

Conclusion

To recapitulate, raising the price is too narrow an approach and would not have the desirable results. Not only should consumers arouse their awareness of studying the nutrient lists printed on packages, but food companies should invest healthier products as well.

【解析】重申观点

☀ recapitulate v. 总结
