  美國西部作文標題

  Is emotionally based opinion worthy of respect?

  寫作考題剖析

  這個標題咋一看挺難,但實在同窗們假如依照咱們日常平凡上課時所講的動筆以前斟酌兩分鐘,這個題也能夠輕松搞定,而且套上咱們所提到的例子。

  在現實生存中,咱們許多人的概念都有兩種:基於理性剖析的,和基於情緒身分的。剖析到這兒,根本思緒就已出來了。確定是理性剖析更靠譜,而基於情緒身分的概念因為收到非理性的滋擾,許多時刻不敷以被采信。並且,此標題也屬於考過的標題改寫,請參考2009年5月考題:

  Good decision making generally requires people to think carefully and logically and to pay attention to practical details. However, people who depend on their feelings and emotions to make important decisions are not likely to spend hours gathering information, making lists, considering all possible outcomes, and so forth. When comparing the advantages or disadvantages of one course of action to another, these people ask themselves, "What do my feelings tell me?"

  Assignment:Should people let their feelings guide them when they make important decisions?

  範文示例

  Emotionally based opinion is not worthy of respect. Emotion, as its definition indicates, is instinctive or intuitive feeling as distinguished from reasoning. Opinion based on emotion usually leads to irrational decisions, sometimes crazy ones, as is evidenced by Hitler’s hatred towards Jews. On the contrary, opinion based on rational reasoning can help people make right decisions. Churchill’s handling of Coventry bombing attack proves it perfectly.

  The notoriously horrible Holocaust was based on Hitler’s long-standing emotional opinion that the Jews were the great enemy of the German people. From a very young age, Hitler started to develop the hatred towards Jews. In his eyes, Jewish people were not entitled to live on the earth, not to mention in Germany. To make things worse, according to an agent from CIA, who investigated the boyhood of Hitler, the love affair of his mother with a Jewish piano tutor deepened the hatred. After he seized power in Germany, Hitler started “the annihilation of the Jewish race in Europe”, saying that “we shall regain our health only by eliminating the Jews”. The diaries of Nazi officials demonstrate that under Hitler’s authorization, 5.5-6 million Jewish people were killed, mostly through mass executions in concentration and extermination camps. Even today, we still shudder at the mere thought of the Holocaust, the greatest tragedy ever in human recorded history. Hitler’s emotionally based opinion was distorted from the fact, causing great sufferings to many.

  Just as said above, it was rational reasoning that helped Winston Churchill make the right decision during the Second World War. As part of Hitler’s plan, Coventry, a major city in England, was singled out for heavy bombing raids. The attack destroyed most of the city center; 568 people were killed, more than 4000 homes were destroyed and thousands more were damaged. The devastation was so great that the word Koventrieren entered the German and English languages. What was just as shocking was the fact that before the bombing, Winston Churchill, the then prime minister, was aware that a major bombing attack was falling on Coventry. It is common sense that in such a situation no effort should be spared to save people’s lives, but Churchill chose not to defend them, due to the rational reasoning: keeping secret the fact that they deciphered Germany’s code. And the following victory has already shown us that what Churchill did was, if a bit cruel, absolutely right. If Churchill had, against rational reasoning, employed emotion as a final resort and taken measures in advance, the defense would have exposed the fact to the German and would make the whole plan a failure.

  From what has been illustrated through the examples, the fact has sprung that emotionally based opinion is not worthy of respect; only opinion based on rational reasoning can lead people to the right path.
