本题是2009年5月21日的话题,属于抽象类话题。抽象类话题看似难写,实际上只要转换成具体话题就容易手了。进步的领域:科技,教育。仍需改进的领域:环保,犯罪,人口老龄化,动物保护,文化语言保护。本题几乎无所不包,雅思写作题库中几乎所有话题都能用于本题。

题目 Some people think the human race has made continual progress in all areas of life, while others believe that there is less certainty about this. What areas of progress human race has made? What else areas we have not developed?
一些人认为人类在各方面已经取得了不断的进步,而另外一些人认为并非如此。人类在哪些领域取得了进步?哪些领域没有取得发展?
开头段 How to make a better life never fails to capture people’s attention throughout much of the human history ,which serves as a catalyst for the continuing development in every aspect of life. Some people, however, believe that the so called “development” cannot be regarded as real progress.
中间段1 回答第一问:人类在哪些领域取得了进步? 1. 众所周知,几个世纪以来,人类一直致力于通过发展科技来改善生存环境。
It is commonly believed that human beings have been striking for improving living conditions by evolving science and technology for many centuries.
【论证示范】
Due to the convenient transportation system, citizens in China are able to enjoy fresh American lemons which were once not available to Chinese or people in many other counties. Communication modes mainly relied on writing letters in the past also witnessed a significantly transformation with the advent of internet, making friends or families enable to contact each other instantly by their computers or tablets.2.其次,与过去相比,人类在医学领域取得了许多突破。
Furthermore, compared with the past , there are many breakthroughs having been achieved in medical care.
中间段2 回答第二问:哪些领域没有取得发展? 1. 污染,全球变暖,物种灭绝等环境问题已经成为很多国家头痛的问题,它们经常会陷于经济发展和生态平衡的困境中。
Environmental problems in terms of pollutions, global warming ,species extinction and so forth, have been a great headache to most nations who always trap into a dilemma between economic development and ecological balance. 2.各个种族和宗教间的武装冲突是一个持续性的问题,这对世界的和平与和谐造成了威胁。
Arm conflict among various races and religions is another endless problem posing a large threat to world peace and harmony.
结尾段 To sum up, although a lack of knowledge concerning how to control human desire seems to be a big handicap to human civilization, it should be admitted that we have made a great progress in many fields , and the advancement is expected to continue.
A novel 3D-3D CuS/graphene hydrogel (CuS@rGO) photocatalysts with the synergistic effect of adsorption and photocatalysis had been successfully prepared by a facile two-step hydrothermal method, which was applied to photodegrade dyestuff wastewater. The 3D-3D CuS@rGO hydrogel, with 3D macroporous network structures, in which 3D-hierarchical structured flower-like CuS was homogenously distributed, not only showed great absorption toward the organic dyestuff, but also provided multidimensional quality and electron transfer channels. The 3D-3D structure of CuS@rGO composite was not only beneficial to light refraction and reflection, but also able to extend the light absorption edge to the visible region, which highly improved the utilization rate of sunlight. The synergistic effect of the 3D-3D CuS@rGO composite greatly enhanced the removal rates for anion dye and cationic dye with ease separation and recycling in water purification. The removal rate of methylene blue (MB) and methyl orange (MO) by 3D-3D CuS@rGO composite are about 2.3 and 1.3 times than that of pure CuS under visible light irradiation, and the removal rates of MB and MO are about 3 and 2.3 times than that of pure CuS under UV-irradiation. When the composite repeatedly used for 3 times, the MB removal efficiency still remained 91.57%, indicating that the3D-3D CuS@rGO composite has a high recyclability for degration of MB. The construction of the 3D-3D CuS@rGO composite resolved the adsorption saturation problem of graphene hydrogel and improved the photocatalytic activity of CuS, thus greatly improved the removal rate of water pollutants.
