很多人认为我们应当鼓励廉价的飞机旅行，因为它给了普通人远行的自由。然而，另外一些人则认为这会导致环境问题，因此飞机旅行应当更加昂贵，以便减少人们的使用。谈论双方观点更给出你自己的观点。
【关键词分析】
cheap air travel
本题不是简单的飞机旅行的利与弊，而是问飞机旅行是否应当廉价。
【话题分类与题型】
本题是旧题，与2008年6月14日的考题完全相同，与2010年4月10日（见下）的考题也几乎一致。属于科技类与环保类的混合话题，题型为Discursive(Argumentation)。值得一提的是，最近考老题的次数较多，上一次考试（2011年3月19日）的考题与2008年11月15日的完全相同，因此提醒各位考生一定要重视对历年考题的复习。有意思的是，今天欧洲考区的话题同样是科技类与环保类的混合题型，同样是2008年的考过的旧题。题目是科技改变农产品产量与质量的利弊（详见本文最后）。
【话题评价】
环保类写作话题题库中有一个小分支是关于“交通工具”的。从2003年至今，这个分支话题共出现8次，其中2次是问汽车的利弊，6次飞机是否应该被限制（其余4道话题见下）。这些话题的基本思路都是相同的，缺点主要从环保角度去考虑。当然每个话题有不同的侧重点，同学需要认真对待。

【结构与思路】
本文属于Discuss both views and give youropinion题型，因此双方的观点必须都提及，缺一不可。但是结论上未必要折中，如果要支持一方的话，则选择驳斥另外一方即可。
文中词汇表达较丰富恰当，但学术词汇稍显不足；可适当增加复合句和从句的使用；语言不流畅；连词使用偏少。
The development of air travel gives us the chance to go further and further, and thanks to its convenience, we won't feel tired after a long journey. But to enjoy this convenience, we have to pay for a lot of money which is more expensive than other means of transport. So the question comes: whether the price of flight tickets should be reduced so that most of travelers can afford to? Some people support this idea but others hold the opposite viewpoint. There is a proverb going in China: Travel thousands of miles, read thousands of books. It tells us that the traveling is as same important as reading. we can increase our knowledge and open our horizons by traveling. But time is life and the air travel can help us save our time, so it is important to make the flight ticket price as an average level. Consider that the airport produces more air pollution than other travel tools, some people think that the airport travel should not be encouraged. Besides, if we are planing to travel, the train provide us a nicer view than aircraft and the plane is more suitable to the emergency business and cases. What's more, if the flight ticket is cheaper, more and more people will chose to travel by plane, the other travel tools will be on the track to be stopped. This will make our economic condition unbalanced and disordered. In my opinion, the air travel should not be encouraged considering our environment and our economy.
