2014-11-24 谢侃 Kevin英语课堂 文/谢侃（公众号: kevinenglishclass）

关于今天（2014.11.23）的托福考试，我只能说，ETS真是很懒，完全重复2014.4.27的考题。算是给我放假了，因为今天的独立写作我之前就已经写过了：工作和社交生活哪个一个对你的影响更大。范文水平不高，仅供参考

【题】Do you agree or disagree with the following statement: Yourjob has more effect on your happiness than social life does.

题型分类：选择题

论证角度：原因挖掘

观点选择：让步

开头：跟社会生活相比，工作对我们幸福的影响更大。（话题引入+他人观点+明确立场+过渡）

It is one of human beings’ basic rights to be in pursuit of happiness. Among all factors that can affect our happiness, jobs and social life are the most talked about ones. Thus, an interesting discussion arises on which one of them on earth exerts more influence on our wellbeing. As far as I am concerned, jobs have more correlation with our happiness instead of social life. My reasons and examples are given below. (74words)

中间段1：工作能让人实现自我，充满有成就感。（主题句+说理论证+细节例子） Firstly, jobs make us feel valuable and fulfilled, which is an important reflection of happiness. It is because everyone is born to this world with a mission. Apart from rudimentary physical demands like eating and sleeping, we also need to seek the meaning of life, and working plays a critical role in helping us to find the answers, from which their happiness is derived. For example, Steve Jobs, as we all know, is a workaholic who almost devoted all the time to his career without much social life.

However, from his biography I can feel that it is his career that defined his happiness. (102 words)

中间段2：工作带来财富，而财富是幸福感的物质保证。（主题句+说理论证+细节例子） Secondly, jobs provide a stable income that is the material guarantee of happiness. We have to admit that happiness without the material foundation is not a real one. In other word, a happy life should be based on a decent financial strength that can be achieved through working hard. A good case in point is my uncle who built up a

renowned enterprise from scratch in my hometown. My uncle and his family now live in an extravagant villa and own a limousine, he supports my cousin to study overseas financially, andmy auntie appears stunning everyday by wearing expensive cosmetics and ornaments.It is money that brings them a sense of happiness. (113 words)

让步段：当然，社会生活对一个人幸福感的提升也有作用，比如我们可以经常和朋友在一起，交流思想，互帮互助。但是，社交生活的前提是物质得上得到保障，所以从这个意义上说，工作对我们的幸福的影响是根本性的。（承认漏洞+堵漏）

In some extent, it is true that social life can boost our wellbeing. For instance, one advantage of having a social life is to make our life more enriched and enjoyable because we can hang out with friends, exchange ideas or help each other. However, we cannot depend our wellbeing on others. Only by working can we feel a real and solid sense of happiness. (65words)

结尾：重申观点，归纳理由/升华主题

In conclusion, compared with social life, jobs play a more important role in influencing our wellbeing. They not only enable usto enjoy a sense of achievement, but also provide a stable source of finance that lays the groundwork for our wellbeing. (42 words)
