2018年11月3日雅思寫作大作文 | 讓犯人接受教育是減少犯罪的辦法嗎?
It is shown that many criminals have a low level of education. Some people argue that the best way to reduce crime is to educate criminals in prison to help them find jobs when they leave prison. To what extent do you agree or disagree?
解析&審題
11月3日的考題與犯罪有關(guān)。犯罪題材一直都是雅思寫作考試的重點(diǎn)之一,每年都會(huì)出現(xiàn)4-5次,請各位烤鴨務(wù)必重視這個(gè)題材。以往考過的犯罪題材包括犯罪的原因,如何減少犯罪,青少年犯罪的懲罰等。
本次涉及減少犯罪的辦法。題目中提出一個(gè)觀點(diǎn),即加強(qiáng)犯人的教育,讓他們出獄后能夠找到工作,這就是減少犯罪的辦法。對這類“辦法”的題目,唐老師認(rèn)為的策略就是雙邊討論,首先承認(rèn)題目中提出的辦法是有效的,然后再指出這個(gè)辦法的缺陷,提出它應(yīng)該不是的辦法,還存在其他更好的辦法。本題提出加強(qiáng)犯人教育這個(gè)辦法,其前提是很多犯人的教育水平很低。就本題而言,我們應(yīng)該不會(huì)去反對這個(gè)前提,而是承認(rèn)犯人的教育水平很低,并在此基礎(chǔ)上討論教育是不是的辦法。那么,我們首先承認(rèn)教育可以幫助犯人出獄后找到好工作,然后提出,犯人能夠找到好工作也不一定確保犯罪率降低。這樣就否認(rèn)了教育犯人是降低犯罪的辦法。
以下是唐老師的高分范文,大家可認(rèn)真閱讀,看老師是如何把以上思路落實(shí)到具體文字表達(dá)的。

01
Because many inmates in prison do not have formal education and have not ever had a decent job before, it is believed that the best way to reduce crime is to educate them so they can find employment after release. However, there are both good news and bad news about the value of prison education.
由于監(jiān)獄中的許多囚犯沒有受過正規(guī)教育,也從未有過體面的工作,因此人們認(rèn)為減少犯罪的辦法是教育他們,使他們釋放后能夠找到工作。然而,監(jiān)獄教育的價(jià)值既有也有壞消息。
解析
(1) 本段先重述題目觀點(diǎn),并給出自己的判斷,表明接下來文章做雙邊討論。
(2) inmate 監(jiān)獄中的囚犯
(3) a decent job 一份體面的工作
(4) employment 工作;就業(yè)
(5) release 釋放(n. & v.)
02
There is evidence that educating criminals in prison does work to some extent, for it can help them secure a good job after being set free and return to normal life as soon as possible. In looking across the related statistics, the chances of finding employment are about 10 percent higher among prisoners who have participated in either academic or vocational education programs than those who have not. Education, therefore, remains an important means to ensure that inmates are prepared for the challenges in workplaces.
有證據(jù)表明,在監(jiān)獄里教育罪犯在某種程度上是有效的,因?yàn)檫@可以幫助他們在獲釋后找到一份好工作,并盡快恢復(fù)正常生活。相關(guān)統(tǒng)計(jì)資料顯示,參加過學(xué)術(shù)或職業(yè)教育項(xiàng)目的囚犯的就業(yè)機(jī)會(huì)比未參加的囚犯高出約10%。因此,教育一直都是確保囚犯為迎接工作場所的挑戰(zhàn)做好準(zhǔn)備的重要手段。
解析
(1) 本段主要論述監(jiān)獄里的教育項(xiàng)目的確可以幫助罪犯出獄后找到工作。本段論述中使用的是數(shù)據(jù)法,也就是提供數(shù)據(jù)來支持自己的觀點(diǎn)。
(2) evidence 證據(jù)
(3) secure 活得(v.);安全的(adj.)
(4) statistics 數(shù)據(jù)
(5) participate in 參加
(6) vocational 職業(yè)的
(7) ensure 確保

However, skeptics claim that in practice education behind bars may be more a romantic idea than an effective solution to the growing crime rate. It must be made clear that the point is not against correctional education programs, considering that most criminals are under-educated. Rather, the point is that sometimes prison education produces nothing more than “better-educated criminals,” who may become even more dangerous. These days, the violent crime rate keeps soaring up, which is a clear indication that prison education is not really working well. The value of prison education, therefore, must not be over-exaggerated, though it does improve the prospect of employment for the former prisoners.
然而,懷疑論者聲稱,在實(shí)踐中,監(jiān)獄中的教育可能更多地是一個(gè)浪漫的想法,而不是一個(gè)不斷上升犯罪率的解決辦法。必須清楚地表明,這里并不是在反對補(bǔ)救性的教育項(xiàng)目,因?yàn)榇蠖鄶?shù)罪犯受教育程度的確是很低的。這里的要點(diǎn)是,有時(shí)監(jiān)獄教育只會(huì)產(chǎn)生“受過良好教育的罪犯”,他們可能變得更危險(xiǎn)。最近,暴力犯罪率不斷上升,這清楚地表明監(jiān)獄教育并沒有起到很大作用。因此,監(jiān)獄教育的價(jià)值雖然這確實(shí)改善了前囚犯的就業(yè)前景,但不要過分夸大。
解析
(1) 本段主要論述監(jiān)獄的教育并一定能降低犯罪率,反而可能讓罪犯變得更加危險(xiǎn)。
(2) skeptics 懷疑論者
(3) education behind bars 監(jiān)獄里的教育
(4) crime rate 犯罪率
(5) correctional 補(bǔ)救性的
(6) soar up 快速上升
(7) exaggerate 夸張
(8) prospect 前景
04
To sum up, it pays to educate inmates and prepare them for job opportunities. Whether education in prisons is the best way to reduce crime depends on the way those inmates see the education they receive. Good things often happen, but probably not as often as justice officials hope.
總之,對囚犯進(jìn)行教育并使他們?yōu)榫蜆I(yè)機(jī)會(huì)做好準(zhǔn)備是值得的。監(jiān)獄里的教育是不是減少犯罪的方法,取決于囚犯們對教育的看法。好的結(jié)果經(jīng)常發(fā)生,但可能不像司法官員所希望的那樣頻繁。
解析
(1) 總結(jié)前面的主要觀點(diǎn),包括監(jiān)獄教育的好處和局限。
(2) it pays to do... 做......是值得的
(3) depend on 取決于
(4) justice official 司法官員
