2017年5月13日大作文范文——食用进口食品利大于弊吗

 

2017年5月13日雅思大作文题目

 

In some countries, it is possible for people to have a variety of food imported from all over the world. To what extent do you think its benefits outweigh the drawbacks?

 

解析

当今是全球化时代，我们的日常生活中充满了外来的元素，只不过我们很少去关注：我们穿的衣服，吃的食品，乘坐的汽车或者飞机，几乎没有什么东西没有外来的痕迹。那么，在这个大背景下，我们该如何讨论本次雅思写作话题呢？

 

本次考题依然是旧题翻版，原题出现于2016年8月13日。唐老师注意到近期雅思写作，很多都是在重复2015年的话题，部分是在重复2014年话题，因此建议烤鸭重点练习2014年下半年-2015年上半年的真题，复现率的确是很高的。

 

关于食用外来食品，就如引进其他产品一样，肯定是利弊参半。好的地方，无非是丰富了我们的食物选择，改善了我们的营养结构，这都是从消费者个人而言的。那么，对于整个食品产业，无疑会增加产业的竞争，从而提高服务质量，但是坏处也由此而产生：如果消费者大量食用外来食品，这无疑会挫伤国内食品产业的发展。谈及个人观点，我们可以这样认为，虽然在短期内国内食品产业可能受损，但是从长远看，竞争导致提高，从而可以促进国内食品产业走向世界，因此反而变成一件好事，由此得出结论：消费者食用外来食品，无论对个人还是对整个食品产业，都是一件好事。

30 years ago, American fast food such as McDonald, KFC, and Subway was basically unheard of in China, but now they have become everyday words to most Chinese people and China has probably consumed the greatest amount of American fast food in the world. Though the introduction of foreign food is not without negative effects, I do think it is positive to both the individual consumers and the food industry as a whole.

 

With greater variety of food coming from outside, we can enjoy a better nutritional structure and greater freedom to choose our favorite food. Now we all know that eggplants and potatoes are vital to our health, but very few know they were originally grown in Mexico and Ireland and were not imported to China until after the 18th century. So the imported food has offered us more nutritional choices. Instead of just taking soy bean milk, many people today have cow milk; instead of just taking breads, many people now have sandwiches as well.

 

Some people may argue that the importation of foreign food may impair the local food industry. This is indeed true in some cases. We have seen many local food brands become obsolete when their foreign replacements are introduced to the market. However, I believe the intensified competition resulting from the arrival of the foreign food is beneficial to the long-term development of the local food industry, because it will compel the local food companies to improve the quality of their products, which in turn will make them more competitive in the global market. 

 

Thus, the possibility of having a great variety of imported food is a favorable opportunity to both the individual consumers and the entire food industry. It is, therefore, advisable for us to embrace this development, rather than rejecting it.

30 years ago, American fast food such as McDonald, KFC, and Subway was basically unheard of in China, but now they have become everyday words to most Chinese people and China has probably consumed the greatest amount of American fast food in the world. Though the introduction of foreign food is not without negative effects, I do think it is positive to both the individual consumers and the food industry as a whole.

 

30年前，诸如麦当劳、肯德基和赛百味这样的美国快餐食品在中国几乎闻所未闻，然而现在它们对多数中国人而言已经是耳熟能详，中国也许已经成为世界上食用美国快餐食品最多的国家。虽然引进外国食品不无负面效果，但我认为这对个体消费者和整个食品业来说，都是积极的。

 

（1）开头段对题目所提的现象进行细化描写，引入话题，并提出自己的观点。

（2）...is unheard of ......是闻所未闻的

（3）Consume 消费

（4）...is not without bad effects. ......不无消极影响

With greater variety of food coming from outside, we can enjoy a better nutritional structure and greater freedom to choose our favorite food. Now we all know that eggplants and potatoes are vital to our health, but very few know they were originally grown in Mexico and Ireland and were not imported to China until after the 18th century. So the imported food has offered us more nutritional choices. Instead of just taking soy bean milk, many people today have cow milk; instead of just taking breads, many people now have sandwiches as well.

 

当更多种类的食品从外而来时，我们就拥有了更好的营养结构，以及更多自由来选择自己喜爱的食品。现在我们都知道茄子和土豆对我们的身体很重要，但很少人知道它们原本产于墨西哥和爱尔兰，直到18世纪以后才引入中国。因此，进口食品给我们提供了更多的营养选择。今天很多人不只喝豆奶，还喝牛奶；不只吃面包，还吃三明治。

 

 

（1）本段讨论引进外来食品对个体消费者的好处：改进营养结构，提供更多选择。本段主要使用举例法。

（2）Nutritional 营养的

（3）Vital 关键的

（4）Originally 最初地

有些人也许认为，引进外来食品可能损害本地食品业。在有些情况下的确如此。我们已经看到，当外国替代品被引入到市场后，很多本地食品品牌消失了。然而，我相信，随着外国食品到来而引起的激烈竞争对本地食品业的长远发展是有好处的，因为它会迫使本地食品公司改进产品质量，这反过来会让它们在国际市场上更具竞争力。

 

（1）本段讨论引进外来食品与本地食品业发展之间的关系。请烤鸭注意本段深入的用词。

（2）Impair 损害；伤害

（3）Obsolete 过时的

（4）Replacement 替换品

（5）Intensified 加剧的

（6）Long-term 长远的

（7）Compel 迫使

Thus, the possibility of having a great variety of imported food is a favorable opportunity to both the individual consumers and the entire food industry. It is, therefore, advisable for us to embrace this development, rather than rejecting it.

 

因此，拥有更多种类进口食品，对个体消费者和整个食品产业都是一个有利的机会，所以，我们应该欢迎这个发展趋势，而不是拒绝它。

 

（1）本段为结论段，重申观点。

（2）Favorable 有利的

（3）Advisable 明智的

（4）Embrace 拥抱；欢迎
