2018年9月29日雅思大作文題目:團隊活動比個人活動能教我們更多生活技能嗎?
Team/group activities can teach more important skills for life than those activities which are played alone. To what extent do you agree or disagree?
Give reasons for your answer and include any relevant examples from your own knowledge or experience.
解析&審題
9月29日的雅思寫作要求我們討論的話題涉及我們從事的活動,尤其是體育活動。就學(xué)習(xí)生活技能而言,參加團隊活動比參加個人活動更重要嗎?
這類問題,我們的寫作思路不外乎有三個:(1)團隊活動比個人活動更重要;(2)個人活動比團隊活動更重要;(3)團隊活動很重要,但個人活動也很重要。
唐老師認(rèn)為,在這個題目中,團隊活動和個人活動并不是相互排斥的(mutually exclusive),因此我們完全可以辯證地認(rèn)為這兩種活動對于我們培養(yǎng)生活技能而言都很重要,而一旦采取這個思路,我們要解決的問題就變成:團隊活動和個人活動各有利于培養(yǎng)哪些生活技能?因此,我們就有必要對生活技能進行分類:自信、責(zé)任心、社交能力、合作精神……,然后論證這些能力到底應(yīng)該在團隊活動還是在個人活動中來培養(yǎng)。比如,我們可以論證個人活動有利于培養(yǎng)我們的自信和責(zé)任心,而團隊活動有利于培養(yǎng)社交能力和合作精神。
因此,本題立論的核心就是找出題目中的life skills這一關(guān)鍵詞,將其進行分類,再結(jié)合另外兩個關(guān)鍵詞即group activities和activities played alone進行分別討論。
分類討論,這是雅思寫作的一個很有用的思維,也能體現(xiàn)考生的批判思維能力。
新航道團隊范文
01
Are activities played as a team better than those played individually when it comes to learning life skills? The answer, I think, depends on the life skills in question —self-reliance, responsibility, cooperation, sportsmanship, or the ability to feel happy.
在學(xué)習(xí)生活技能方面,團隊活動是否比個人活動更好?我認(rèn)為,答案取決于在討論的生活技能——自力更生、責(zé)任感、合作能力、體育精神還是感受幸福的能力。
解析
(1)本段為引入段:本次范文的引入段比較直接,用問答開始,然后亮出自己的觀點:哪種活動更好取決于在討論的生活技能是什么。

(3)when it comes to… 當(dāng)談到……

02
Activities that are played alone can develop the sense of self-reliance and responsibility in young people. This is because in such activities, success is entirely a matter of personal efforts, and young people will have to learn to rely on themselves and consider the consequences of their own decisions and actions. Further, playing alone requires one to motivate oneself as there is no team pressure and there is nobody else to blame for failure. This intrinsic motivation as a life skill is perhaps more powerful than external motivation in a team. Further still, people can perhaps derive more happiness and satisfaction from their success in individual sports, and this sense of self-recognition is an essential skill in their work and life.
獨自從事的活動可以培養(yǎng)年輕人的自立感和責(zé)任感。這是因為在這樣的活動中,成功完全是個人努力的問題,年輕人必須學(xué)會依靠自己,并考慮自己的決定和行動的后果。此外,個體活動需要激勵自己,因為沒有團隊壓力,沒有別人為失敗負(fù)責(zé)。作為一種生活技能的內(nèi)在動機也許比團隊中的外在動機更強大。此外,人們可能從個人運動的成功中獲得更多的幸福和滿足,這種自我認(rèn)同感是他們工作和生活中必不可少的技能。
解析
(1) 本段論述個人從事的活動對培養(yǎng)生活技能的重要性,包括自強、責(zé)任心、內(nèi)在驅(qū)動力、自我認(rèn)同,等。
(2) consequence 后果
(3) motivate 激勵
(4) intrinsic 內(nèi)在的
(5) derive … from… 從……獲得……
(6) self-recognition 自我認(rèn)同
03
Group activities such as team sports can teach at least three life skills that benefit young people forever. Firstly, the social aspect of group activities might be what appeals to young people in the first place. Participation in such activities gives young people an opportunity to spend time with peers in a learning environment and practice their social skills. Secondly, by learning to positively handle the winning and losing outcome in group activities, young people can foster their fair-play sportsmanship, a trait extremely important both in their youth-hood and adulthood. Thirdly, group activities will help people understand the value of cooperation. They will get to know that working as a team is key to success in life, though this sometimes might mean personal sacrifices.
團體活動,如團隊運動,至少可以教三種讓年輕人永遠(yuǎn)受益的生活技能。首先,群體活動的社會方面可能就是最吸引年輕人的因素。參加這樣的活動使年輕人有機會在學(xué)習(xí)環(huán)境中與同齡人共度時光,并鍛煉他們的社交技能。其次,通過學(xué)習(xí)積極地處理群體活動中的勝負(fù),年輕人可以培養(yǎng)他們公平競爭的體育精神,這是他們青年時期和成年時期都極為重要的特征。第三,群體活動有助于人們理解合作的價值。他們會知道,團隊合作是人生成功的關(guān)鍵,盡管有時這可能意味著個人的犧牲。
解析
(1) 本段討論團隊活動對培養(yǎng)人們(尤其是年輕人)社交能力,體育精神和合作精神的作用。
(2) appeal to 吸引
(3) foster 培養(yǎng)
(4) sacrifice 犧牲
04
To conclude, though group activities can teach people many important life skills, people can gain a lot of other essential skills from solo activities as well. As it is hard to tell which set of skills is more important, we cannot reach the consensus of opinion as to which kind of activities is more useful in the development of our life skills.
總之,雖然團體活動可以教會人們許多重要的生活技能,但是人們也可以從個體活動中獲得許多其他的基本技能。因為很難說哪組技能更重要,我們無法就哪種活動更有助于發(fā)展我們的生活技能達成共識。
解析
(1)本段為結(jié)論段,總結(jié)前文觀點,同時直接回答題目問題:我們無法斷定是團隊活動還是個人活動更重要。
(2)essential 核心的;重要的
(3)consensus of opinion 一致意見
(4)as to 關(guān)于
