12.26 托福写作考题分析:outdoor classes的好处和坏处!
2023.12.26 托福作文考题分析
教授:5-18岁的孩子是否应该带他们每个月一次户外课程?
Kelly:不应该,老师太累。
Andrew:应该,帮助孩子更好了解环境。
Dr. Achebe: Outdoor education can have various benefits, such as connecting with nature and learning in a different environment. As part of an initiative to encourage more outdoor learning, there is a proposal to have teachers take students aged 5-18 outside of the classroom for outdoor classes once a month. In your response, please share your thoughts on whether outdoor classes once a month would be beneficial for students in this age group.
Kelly: We should avoid burdening teachers with additional responsibilities during instructional time. Teachers are already tasked with delivering quality education and managing classrooms effectively. Adding more duties, such as administrative tasks or non-teaching responsibilities, can divert their focus from teaching. Instead, we should prioritize supporting teachers in their primary role.
Andrew: Hands-on learning outside the classroom can help students understand environmental problems in a tangible way and spark their interest to learn more. For example, measuring air or water quality in local areas impacted by pollution can vividly demonstrate environmental threats. Outdoor learning experiences make environmental issues real to students, motivating them to care about finding solutions.
破题
今天写作重复10月10日的考题!难度不大~
只是这道学术讨论话题更加宽泛(也就是难度没那么大~),可以不只是说环保动植物方面,其他方面也可以涉及。当然,也可以反驳,就像Kelly的角度一样。
需要注意的是,这个题目有给年龄限制5-18岁,大致就是整个基础教育阶段,中小学阶段,大家注意不要写成大学生了。这个年龄段跨度也比较大,因此也可以将年龄段拆分写中立,也是可以的。
好处:
① 激发学生的学习兴趣。不同于在教室里听老师的授课,学生可以真实都看到外在世界,发现一些环境问题:比如雾霾city smog/动物栖息地减少habitat loss。运用课堂上的知识解决一些问题(students can witness real-world applications of what they learn)。觉得课堂很有用,就会认真学习。
② 有利于学生开阔视野,学到更多的内容。(Exposure to nature and environmental issues can deepen their understanding and interest:native flora and fauna)
…
坏处:
①学习效率不高,老师管理起来很麻烦。比如小朋友被环境分心,不好好听老师的讲解。
②浪费学校的资源。学校一般都花了很多钱有自己的实验室,已经足够让学生去学习。(The cost-effectiveness of using in-house labs vs. field trips)
③给学校和老师带来额外的负担。学校要支付额外的费用,比如学生的车费,餐费,甚至还要安排更多的老师来管理学生。(Financial strain on school budgets.)
…
中立:
1. 小学生可以,因为小学生时间多。
2. 中学生不太合适,中学生时间紧张。
参考思路
立场:坏处
Andrew raises a valid point about the appeal of outdoor courses for stimulating students' interest in learning about environmental issues.(让步) However, it's important to consider the abundance of alternative resources available to students, such as online materials.(给出反驳观点) For example, numerous well-crafted documentaries like "Planet Earth" vividly and informatively depict our planet's beauty and the environmental challenges it faces, from the impact of climate change on the Amazon rainforest to other factors affecting our world. In today's digital age, students can conveniently access these videos at their leisure during weekends or holidays, eliminating the need for frequent trips to local parks to observe only one aspect of nature.(给出例子)
Furthermore, it's challenging for contemporary students to allocate extra time for outdoor activities. (新观点)Their schedules are typically filled with various daily responsibilities, including academic work, athletic training, and community service commitments. These activities are vital for their college applications and future prospects, leaving them with little energy for pursuits that may not directly contribute to their academic or extracurricular goals, such as participating in outdoor classes on a monthly basis.(给出理由)
立场:好处
I concur with xxx that it is beneficial for schools to integrate outdoor classes into students curriculum. My conviction stems from the real-world understanding that outdoor experiences provides to students. 让相比于让学生整天坐在教室里,盯着黑板,听老师讲授一些枯燥的知识点, 学生更喜欢在教室外自由的环境中学习知识。(students are just either mindlessly scribbling down complex mathematical equations or staring at the blackboard without really putting thoughts in it, an outdoor environment offers a more interactive and engaging learning experience). 比如,学生们很容易走神当老师滔滔不绝地讲环境保护有多重要,但是当学生们在公园里亲眼看到因为整个城市因为工厂大量燃烧煤炭导致酸雨频发, 当地河流中的鱼类都大量死亡后(However, witnessing firsthand the detrimental effects of environment neglect, such as the local fish populations being threaten with extinction due to the frequent acid rain caused by the burning of fossil fuels),他们就会更投入地学习,专研解决措施(students are more likely to become actively involved in their learning and seek solutions to these pressing issues). In conclusion...
语言表达积累

stimulate students' interests

depict world's beauty
