托福獨立寫作難點話題思路解讀和高分范文賞析：land needs to be left in natural condition

　　Land in your country: needs to be left in its natural condition or needs to be developed?

　　In your country, is there more need for land to be left in its natural condition or is there more need for land to be developed for housing and industry? Use specific reasons and examples to support your answer.

　　寫作思路展開結(jié)構(gòu)分析

　　這道題目要注意審題，in your country這個前提條件不能忽視，要結(jié)合國家的情況來說，不要一上來就直接寫環(huán)保的那一套理論。而從實際角度來說，中國人口密度很高，所以，我們選擇后者應該更容易寫一些。開發(fā)土地的好處主要有解決住房的需求/發(fā)展工業(yè)能夠解決資本問題/能解決失業(yè)問題，進一步繁榮經(jīng)濟等等。當然，保護環(huán)境也不是不能說，但要結(jié)合實例比如中國的沙漠化問題，沙塵暴現(xiàn)象等等來展開。

　　With a population accounting nearly for one quarter of the world population, my country, China, has been suffering from serious loss of arable land, which now hardly accounts for 7% of overall arable land of the world. Yet some people simply do not realize that land loss is so crucial that we one day might incapable of averting that catastrophe if we now close our eyes to it.

　　Industrial development without careful consideration regarding land preservation has caused problems more serious than people can ever imagine. Take the great Three Gorges dam for example, which will be put into operation next year. While the country benefits from gargantuan potential of electricity generation, we have to face up to various environmental conservation issues concerning geological and ecological environment along both river sides and whole upper reaches. The professional designers of the great dam now have to work out a practical way to prevent and remedy pollution effectively, which has already been the focus of world attention.

　　After the entrance of the WTO, industry development is more and more important for our country, yet we should be careful about the pollution which is inevitably caused by industry. Recent surveys have shown that refuse treatment engineering is not well financed in China, while attentions are drawn to those much more obvious achievements. Industrial pollution accidents occur far more frequently in our still developing country than in other more advanced countries. Urban population also produce astoundingly large amount of pollution. Today the alleged white pollution is creeping all over the country—people throw plastic bags, films everywhere, never feeling anything wrong.

　　We no doubt need land either for natural condition or for industry, and it seems we need more if possible. Nevertheless, we live in a world where everything has its cost, and some day in the future, I believe, we will inescapably pay for what we have ignored.
