六级模拟题

Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a short essay entitled The Importance of Physical Exercise. You should write at least 150 words following the outline give below.

1. 有人建议我们应当倡导节约型社会；

2. 有人认为我们应当倡导消费性社会；

3. 我的观点。

Should we advocate conservation-oriented society or consumption-oriented society?

Should we advocate conservation-oriented society or consumption-oriented society? The debate is becoming a hot issue with no common consensus among the people as to the view of it.

Some people claim that we should encourage a conservation-oriented society. They are more convinced that thrift is a traditional virtue that has been passed from generation to generation. So, we all need to practice thrift in order to build a prosperous country.

However, others counter the view that consumption-oriented society is an irreversible trend. As is seen, consumption expands domestic demand and thus boosts economic growth. Moreover, the motivation to work harder lies in an ironic truth that all of us want to consume more in our lives.

From my standpoint, we should advocate the fact that consumption makes a better balanced society, while the former argument merely shares with us a kind of virtue which is no cornerstone of economic development. Admittedly, we shall reduce side effects to ensure that none of us indulges in excessive or useless consumption.
