2021年3月20雅思大作文題目

Some people think that if a police force carries guns, this will encourage a higher level of violence in society. To what extent do you agree or disagree?

高分范文及解析

01

I tend to disapprove of police arming (武裝) themselves with guns. The main concern is that evidence shows it inextricably leads to a violence epidemic (暴力泛濫) in society. 

解析

? 開頭即表態(tài)（不贊同警察配槍）

02

Many people believe that police with guns can stop an attack in its tracks (阻止一場襲擊). To their mind, allowing open carry can deter (震懾) those offenders in cases like robbery or harassment, and as a result, protect innocent people. However, the fact is more like that in areas where police sidearms (警察配槍) are prevalent, potential criminals would be on guard against (提防) the police, thereby equipping themselves with weapons (配備武器) like guns or daggers in advance. This greatly increases the probability of violent crimes. In other words, if the police do not take guns, there may not be so many provoked criminals (被激怒的罪犯) and thus fewer extreme behaviors.

解析

? 駁論段，關(guān)注總結(jié)性的簡潔短句和用作細節(jié)展開的長句比重。

03

In this sense, arming the police with guns engenders (造成) more violence than it prevents. This is also partly because the police, fearing that any civilian may have a gun, have heightened anxiety (高度焦慮) when on duty, which is prone to spark fatal shootings accidentally (導致意外致命槍擊). Even if the police can control gun using without firing by accident, it still negatively affects young children, who inherently (天生) idolize (崇拜) the embodiment of justice. Then, there may be a misconception (錯誤觀念) that firearms are requisites (必需品). That is, a positive correlation (正相關(guān)) between police taking guns and the young falsely imitating them to punish injustice with weapons. 

解析

? 立論段，關(guān)注兩個支撐論點的思考維度。

04

In conclusion, since shootings are not an uncommon event in many countries worldwide, to allay fears that public safety would suffer, I would say that except for the few specially trained ones, the police force had better not carry firearms.
