   本文重点讲的是Issue的写法,培养辩证思考的逻辑。它问你是否同意一个观点。你需要表明自己的态度:批判性思考,不一定是绝对的对错,要从两个或多个方面来考虑。


  例题讲解
  82.Colleges and universities should require their students to spend at least one semester studying in a foreign country.
  托福考试中不在乎逻辑:用交朋友、新文化+语言学习,再来一个让步就可以。
  但是从GRE的角度,上面的逻辑就有问题。去国外学习可以交朋友,那么是说在国内学习就交不到朋友吗?出国可以学习语言和文化,那么在国内就学习不到语言和文化吗?还有很多同学喜欢写让步,但这里是有误区的。我认为让步段落是可以写的,但是在论证过程中并没有什么营养,只是凑字数,完成一篇文章而已。
  你之前以为的让步段落是这样的:
  提问:你觉得要不要爬珠穆朗玛峰啊?
  答:要!
  理由一:锻炼身体(嗯,是的,挺好的。)
  理由二:可以帮助我更好地交朋友(行吧,也许对你来说只有在户外的时候才能交到一些特别好的驴友。)
  让步:我承认爬珠穆朗玛峰有很大的风险,可能会因此丧失生命,就算没有丧命,但也可能因此落下病根。(让步)但是对于前面所说的两个好处来说,我觉得爬珠穆朗玛峰依然值得。(谁信啊?)
  用上面这个思路去写Issue,应该不会拿到太好的分数。说回刚才的题目,我们可以这样写。
  首先有一个introduction,“我的观点是……”
  INTRO:
  It is argued in the statement that … ,有一定的benefits,but not a requirement!
  Study overseas
  1.personal development: academically vs professionally: 1. different countries = different cultures = Disparity in education concepts and systems = disparity in academic researches = students with new perspective + innovative 1 know-how 2 / knowledge; 2 professionally:global citizen = working & researching cooperate with people different cultural background = team work = cultural tolerance 3 = immersion 4 in the country = one good way = one semester in foreign countries.
  NOT study overseas
  1.problems = exposed to a new cultural / social environment: cultural tolerance vs cultural shock: on the one hand, culture shock frustrates 5 students = not focusing too much on the studying but struggling with the cultural issues every day = loss of orientation 6; on the other hand, exposure to so many new interesting and exotic events, not focusing on studying but going for fun for most of the time, even try drugs / violence and other things they might not think of in homeland.
  2.University should require??? free will vs obligation = require = ignorance of the personal willingness = might not be interested = waste of time and effort, especially great financial burden for either the university or the students. IF Universities sponsor the oversea studies =students not getting the expected result = waste of limited resources; IF students self finance = expensive + the results not ensured. SO University create the system to ensure the possibility, provide relevant offerings but not set a requirement for the the students = unfair.
  每个部分都有一个逻辑链条。
