2019年3月14日雅思大作文题目:为什么报纸影响力那么大?
Newspapers have an enormous influence on people’s opinions. Why is it the case? Do you think it is a positive or negative situation? Give reasons for your answer and include any relevant examples from your own knowledge or experience.
解析&审题
本题是关于媒介的,以前很多考题涉及因特网如何取代传统媒体,而本次考题则要求论述传统媒体--报纸为什么对读者有那么大的影响力。
我们可以先承认报纸的读者面在逐渐下降,然后转折回来说其影响力依然巨大:其原因在于人们通常认为报纸是最严肃的媒体,而其他媒体如电视和网络更多是娱乐的媒体。由此我们可以展开论证报纸对大众观点的形成具有重大影响力。
至于这种影响力是好还是坏,显然应该具体情况具体讨论:如果报纸传播的是好的东西,那么其巨大的影响力就是一件好事;若报纸传播的是偏见或错误的东西,那么其影响力就会变成一种坏事。因此报纸的影响力是好还是坏,取决于报纸内容是正确还是错误。
各位烤鸭,你是怎么写的呢?以下请看雅思7分范文。
老师笔记
01
Even though gradually being eclipsed by TV, radio, and more recently the Internet, newspapers are still the dominant source of information for most people, especially in the political and business landscape, and likely to remain in that position for some time to come. This is mainly because newspapers are traditionally thought of as the most serious news channel compared with TV, radio, and the Internet, which are often treated as media of entertainment. Newspapers are generally believed to supply more reliable and balanced information on which many readers form opinions. In a wider mass media system, nothing can beat newspapers in shaping the desires, wants, and thinking of the majority of people. That is why anybody who says that they can predict the death of print journalism may be either a liar or a fool.
尽管报纸逐渐被电视、广播和最近的互联网所取代,但对大多数人来说,报纸仍然是主要的信息来源,尤其是在政治和商业领域,可能会在未来的一段时间内保持这种状态。这主要是因为,与电视、广播和网络相比,传统上大家认为报纸是最严肃的新闻渠道,而后者通常被视为娱乐媒体。人们普遍认为,报纸提供了更可靠和更平衡的信息,许多读者根据这些消息对此形成意见。在更广泛的大众媒体系统中,没有什么比报纸更能塑造大多数人的欲望、需求和思想了。这就是为什么如果任何人说他们可以预测印刷业即将死亡,那他不是骗子就是傻瓜。

02
The impact of newspapers on public opinion could be good, bad or somewhere in between. To begin with, effects are not the same from one country to the next, or even from one person to the next. The good part is that, since newspapers exercise so vast a power, and the great body of readers take the print stuff seriously, so the influence goes a long way. The bad part is that a number of newspapers are biased due to pressure from owners and investors who intend to make more and more money, which is likely to threaten the independence of some newspapers. In this case, much of what appears in the editorials and comments might be propaganda in politics and businesses.
报纸对公众舆论的影响可能是好的,也可能是坏的,或者介于两者之间。首先,报纸影响国与国不一样,甚至个人之间也是不一样的。好的方面是,既然报纸行使如此巨大的权力,广大读者对印刷品的重视程度很高,所以(好的东西)可以广为传播。不好的方面是,很多报纸由于受想赚更多钱的业主和投资者的压力而变得不公正,这可能会威胁到一些报纸的独立性。在这种情况下,出现在社论和评论栏中很多东西可能都是政治和商业宣传。
解析
(1) 本段讨论报纸对人们影响巨大的好处和坏处:好处是好的东西可以传播很远;坏处是有些报纸是不公正的。
(2) Impact 冲击力,影响
(3) Somewhere in between 介于两者之间
(4) Exercise vast power on... 对......产生巨大的影响
(5) Take...seriously 认真对待......
(6) Threaten 威胁
(7) Propaganda 宣传
03
To sum up, the role newspapers play in the modern society is unique when it comes to having the power to influence people’s opinions. To what extent that influence is positive or negative may depend on whether a newspaper is independent or biased.
综上所述,报纸在现代社会中所扮演的角色,在影响人们意见的力量方面是的。这种影响在多大程度上是积极的还是消极的,可能取决于关于报纸是独立的还是有偏见的。
解析
(1) 本段是结论:首先总结报纸的影响力,然后提出是好是坏取决于报纸的好坏。
(2) Unique 的
(3) To what extent 在何种程度上
