雅思大作文范文:了解国家可以通过电视互联网代替实地造访

雅思大作文题目：

Some people say that travelling abroad is necessary for learning about other countries,while others do not think so because TV and the Internet can give the same information.

Discuss both these views and give your own opinion.

【话题分类】

媒体类

【题目解析】

题目大意：有人说想了解其他国家必须实地造访；其他人则认为电视和互联网也能提供相同信息，所以无须出行。

题型特点：要求对双方观点展开讨论，并给出自己的看法。

难点：本题话题是媒体类话题中关于出国的话题，对很多考生来说并不陌生，但是就具体如何了解外国文化，未必有深入思考和积累。

【写作思路】

开头段：引入话题、抛出争议

主体第一段：呈现一些人的观点、提供相关细节

主体第二段：呈现另一些人的观点、提供相关细节

主体第三段：呈现个人观点，分情况讨论

结尾段：概括作者认为不能一概而论，需要分别讨论的观点

【参考范文】

The technological advances over recent decades have meant it is much easier for the average person to find out about the climate,landscape and tourist attractions in other parts of the world.Given such convenient access to information,some people argue that it is no longer necessary to go through the trouble of travelling to and staying in any foreign country.Is this claim justified?

Some people say that electronic media can,to some extent at least,satisfy their need to learn about exotic destinations,and I can understand their point of view.The tech-savvy young population,for instance,are no strangers to cloud-based resources on this topic,frequently exploring and recommending websites and applications that feature high-definition photos and 360-degree videos.Seniors and other community members with mobility limitations,unable to visit as many countries as they wish,probably also recognize the importance of having a rich media repertoire for their enjoyment.

Others,however,might argue that despite the wonder of technology,it cannot emulate one’s physical presence.Travel enthusiasts most likely find their own journeys more memorable than watching documentaries or video blogs about their favourite destinations,given the tastes,touches and smells unique to the trips.Children,similarly,can benefit from such immersive experience of the local landscape and culture that no educational video can offer.

Personally,I think the question depends on how much time you have.For people who are busy with work or study,it is not realistic to arrange frequent week-long vacations abroad,so professionally curated media content may be the best alternative outside of holiday seasons.However,if you have plenty of time at your disposal,paying a visit to a new country and being absorbed in the experience can be rewarding,especially during off-peak months.

To conclude,since international travel and media resources each offer their own advantages,I think there is enough choice for everyone these days.
