What was the goal of the annual GDP growth rate set by the Chinese Government? 2. This recovery was due to the forcefulness of the Chinese government’s policies.

Name and describe one or two instances of infrastructure construction in 2009. 3. The economic recovery in 2009 has also improved the life of ordinary Chinese people. Say something about how you and your family, or your relatives or friends, have benefited from this economic recovery?正确答案： 【参考答案】
My name is…My registration number is…My topic is: A Year of Economic Recovery.
Many economists say that the year 2009 was a year of economic recovery for China. Judging from the relevant economic data, we can see clear signals that China’s economic recovery is accelerating and broadening and some of the key indicators beat market expectations successfully, which has helped China win applause from home and abroad. Those people who were once showing much worry and concern over China’s economic development are now changing their mind and feel confident again.
It is not difficult to figure out how great efforts the government has made to ease the situation and maintain social stability over the past year. Many people insist that this recovery was due to the forcefulness of the Chinese government’s policies. The best-known and most effective measure is the 4-trillion-yuan stimulus plan. It was adopted right after the outbreak of the financial crisis and was soon put into operation. The government also adopted many other pro-growth economic policies such as expanding the “home appliances to the countryside” program. The quick implementation of the stimulus package successfully reversed the downward trend of the economy and the quarterly GDP growth picked up remarkably. A rainbow of recovery shows up after the financial storm. Many people believe that so far, this is the world’s most effective economic stimulus program. And with the effective implementation of all these policies and measures, we can find everywhere that the people’s lives have been gradually improved.
However, as one economist from the Asian Development Bank said, the Chinese government should get ready to deal with more difficult tasks. It is through the economic stimulus plan that Chinese have managed to overcome the crisis in such a short period of time. However, the more severe challenges could be waiting for them. Thus more efforts should be made to promote the Chinese economy’s sustained growth.解析： 暂无解析 -

问答题◆Topic 9: Primary Functions of University Education Questions for Reference: 1. Most people think that teachers should teach students how to judge right and wrong and how to behave well. Please discuss this view. 2. Why do you think lots of teachers pay much more attention to teaching students academic subjects than other aspects? 3. What’s your opinion of the primary functions of university education? Why do you think so?正确答案： 【参考答案】
There is no doubt that helping students find a job is one of the primary functions of university education, but universities do exist for other purposes such as improving students’ analytical skills and raising students’ moral standards.
A university education can be seen as a process of improving students’ analytical thinking. The variety of courses offered at university inspires students in various ways, therefore improving their analytical ability. For example, science courses such as math and biology help students develop a rational way of thinking whereas arts courses such as literature let students ponder over issues from a logical, multi-dimensional perspective; and courses in social sciences force students to recognize the ideas that have been traditionally assumed to be acceptable and unproblematic. With the development of these types of analytical thinking, graduates can face future challenges with more confidence and enthusiasm.
Also, university education is expected to improve students’ moral standards. This is rooted in universities? Belief that students’ awareness of responsibility towards their community and their country is of high importance. In this ever-degrading society and civilization, students are encouraged actively participate in improving the local community. A university that provides care and facilities for physically disadvantaged students may inspire the graduates to better handle situations in the future where they may have to interact with the disabled community. A successful university education is supposed to produce morally sound graduates, therefore increasing their employability.
In conclusion, university education not only helps students locate a decent job but will also develop other qualities such as enhancing their analytical skills and cultivating their hunger and spirit for life.解析： 暂无解析 -

问答题◆Topic 6: Is International Tourism an Effective Bridge of Different Nations? Questions for Reference: 1. Why do you think people like to take an international tourism? 2. What kind of situation are the travelers most likely to be faced with when they get on an international tourism? 3. The international tourism does not promote understanding between people from different cultures. Do you agree?正确答案： 【参考答案】
Every year, hundreds of millions of people move around to see a different part of the world. It is natural to assume that tourists who have seen other countries have a better knowledge of the people. That assumption also leads to the conclusion that international tourism promotes understanding between nations. How true is this? Let us examine what tourists do in a different country.
First, before going abroad, tourists are often told by their travel agents of the possible hazards which sometimes include local people. They are given example of extreme cases where victims are always the travelers. Then, when they arrive, they are immediately taken to their hotels in big coaches. They flood places where local people don’t go. Their shopping, meals, entertainment all take place in secluded areas. They wear a bubble all the way. Apart from speaking to the guide and a few shop assistants, tourists rarely talk to the local people. To make it even worse, they meet pickpockets; they are ripped off by dishonest traders.
Furthermore, very few local people bother to talk to them out of a genuine interest in the guests’ country, people and culture. Therefore, when asked how much they know about the local people, their answer is “very little”.
If someone really wants to understand a different culture, he has to learn its language, stay there for at least a few month without wearing a bubble, learn how to curse and swear, bargain with a vegetable vendor and then he can say that he understands the people.解析： 暂无解析 -

You come home alone after a long day at work. You open the door to your home. No one is there. Is it blessed silence you hear or echoing emptiness?
Millions of people who live alone today may have either experience. Some love living alone, yet others wish they didn’t have to.
When they open that door at night, people who live alone do not have to put up with demands or listen to someone’ s noise or meet anyone’ s dinner deadlines. They do not have to debate about which TV program to watch or stay off the phone because someone else is expecting an important call. No one else messes up their kitchen.
But when they are sick, no one else will bring them an aspirin or call the doctor. Preparing dinner for one can be difficult, and eating dinner for one night after night can be very lonely. Perhaps no one really cares what they did all day. If they are feeling sad, there may be no one to cheer them up. Some people who live alone say the worst times come when something very good happens because there is no one to share the joy.

问答题◆Topic 11：On Bicycle Theft Questions for reference: 1) Is bicycle theft commonly seen on campus? 2) What are the causes for the theft? 3) What can universities you to stop such phenomenon?正确答案： 【参考答案】
Bicycle theft is very common on campus, which is immoral and illegal. And it is damaging to the academic image of the colleges and universities.
There are several reasons for this. First, the security system of the school should be partially responsible for the losses. Besides, more than too often, students’ carelessness leaves opportunities for the thieves. Sometimes when they have to leave their bicycles for 10 minutes, they will not take the trouble to lock them. The last point that is also worth mentioning is that there is a lack of moral education in most schools.
Considering these situations, the school and the students should work together to fight against this phenomenon On the one hand, the school security system should be perfected. On the other hand, students should learn to he more allergic. Above all, moral education must be added and emphasized. 解析： 暂无解析 -

Should people who receive subsistence allowance from the government be allowed to own luxuries? Why or why not? 3. What do you suggest will be the more “humane” restrictions on those who apply for subsistence allowance?正确答案： 【参考答案】
My name is... My registration number is... My topic is: Should government relief recipients be kept from owning “luxuries”?
My name is my registration number is my topic is: Should government relief recipients be kept from owning “luxuries”?
I have known from newspapers that one local government has declared that government relief recipients are not allowed to buy “luxuries” such as cell phones and computers. Once violated, the subsistence allowance will be halted. It has caused withdrawn debate among the Public. The supporters say that limited financial resources should be used where they are most needed and those who can afford top-grade commodities have no right to the subsistence allowance. Nevertheless, the opponents insist that purchasing something they think necessary is personal freedom and should not be interfered. As far as I am concerned, government relief recipients shouldn’t be kept from owning such “luxuries”. My reasons are as follows:
Firstly, I agree that it is personal freedom [or people to decide what to buy, even for the poor. How recipients use the money is their own business in which the government has no right to interfere despite its role as the provider of the relief.
Secondly, cell phones and computers are currently becoming the daily necessities for the majority of the average people, including the poor. They can help o improve people’s living standards and shake off poverty.
Thirdly, we are now living in a modern age. Information technology is developing fast with each passing day. We all need to try our best to keep up with the time.
Finally, I hope that the government will take more active measures to implement the policy of urban subsistence allowance and effectively help those from low-income families. 解析： 暂无解析 -

My name is... My registration number is... My topic is: My View on Private Tutoring.
There is more than one way to Rome, so is the way of tutoring. Nowadays many parents prefer to a private mentor for their children rather than step-by step study in school. Is it helpful? Or is it harmful?
Someone argues that it will destroy the systematic course established by school teacher. It would increase children’s dependency on unnecessary crutch. The worst situation may appear when all trust in public school staff were deprived by those part-time-job hunter.
To be honest, I’ m inclined to disagree with these opinions. First of all, another way for textbook interpreting would give children another kind of viewpoint. It would be good at training their critical spirit from the very beginning. On the other side of the coin, absolute authority may be the most undiscoverable enemy during elementary phase for school education. Competition from outside could change the teacher-oriented status.
Love is preference. Preferable choices provide much qualified option. At least the multi-access tutoring is not an access full of thorn. 解析： 暂无解析 -

问答题Practice 6 You should spend about 40 minutes on this task. Write about the following topic: News media is more influential nowadays. Some people think it is a negative development. To what extent do you agree or disagree? You should write at least 250 words.正确答案： 【参考范文】
As a social member, few of us can avoid the overwhelming influence of news media, through which we can get full information of the outside world efficiently. Some believe that news media have positive impact, but others disagree. Personally, I believe that news media contribute much more than people realize.
There is no doubt that some people or institutions try to mislead the public by making up fake news for the sake of private interests. But this situation only appears on a few occasions and most mainstream media are still reliable when providing genuine information constantly, through which we can know the latest policy or big events going on, so news media have more positive impacts obviously.
Positive sides can be manifested from three aspects. To begin with, it is one of the most important ways to spread information in modem society efficiently. In other words, news media update their information not by the day, but the minute or even the second. Moreover, from those news media, people can not only judge trends by reviews of the public but also receive useful advice from specialists and experts, which will be of benefit to making decisions. Most importantly, it is the news media that establish a platform, on which laymen and experts get chances of equal communication. Without it, there will always be a gap between the decision makers and the public.
To sum up, news media are more than a way of spreading information in modern society, as they provide people with a window to outer world and a forum of communication which enables everyone to participate in the Information Age.解析： 暂无解析 -

Some people are opposed to the extension initiative for fear that it might reduce job opportunities for young people. What’s your comment on this opinion? 3. China is facing a surplus labor force. What are the possible solutions to such a problem?正确答案： 【参考答案】
My name is...My registration number is...My topic is...The Retirement Age for Chinese.
It has been said that the government is discussing about extending the retirement age of employees. Although the authorities involved have ruled out the possibility of increasing the retirement age for the time being, it has still caused much concern and heated discussion.
Back in the 1980s, China’s major concern was its huge population, which had to be tackled first. But today, the aging of its population has become a pressing issue. As life expectancy increases with the help of higher social living and healthcare standards, more and more retired people are becoming healthier and still energetic enough to continue their work. For example, a 50-year-old man used to be regarded as aged a few decades ago, while he would more probably be considered a middle-aged person today. On the other hand, people in China retire earlier than in many other countries. In many of the western countries, the retirement age today is usually 65, or even beyond 65. But in China, the average men retire at the age of 60, and women at 55. Moreover, many workers retire earlier than the legal retirement age owning to preferential policies for women and workers in some of the heavy industries. The other thing which is worth our consideration is that the life expectancy of Chinese has been raised for a number of times over the past decades, and in many of the big cities in China, it has already reached 80 or over, so our pension scheme is facing an increasingly heavy pressure. Taking into consideration of the above-mentioned situation and some other factors, many people think that the retirement age for Chinese workers should and can be extended.
However, adjusting the social security system is a big issue, which has to be done with caution and discretion. The government should encourage a thorough public discussion on the issue and strike the right balance between the pros and cons before making the decision.解析： 暂无解析 -

Living in a highly competitive society, the idea that the purpose of life is to work is prevalent even dominant. Most bread earners believe that financial guarantee is more realistic and more important for a person and for his family. So they take for granted that devoting to work is the most reasonable and worthy thing to do.
Nevertheless, objectors think that work is only a means to have a better life. They argue that there are more important things than work in life, such as friends, personal interests, social responsibilities and so or. They think that life will be dull and meaningless with work as its aim.
In my opinion, we should strike a balance between work and life. On the one hand, to be a diligent worker is necessary and meaningful. On the other hand, we should not be workaholic, or we will lose many significant things in life, such as love and friendship. 解析： 暂无解析 -

Nowadays, international communication has become more and more important, people prefer to communicate in languages, such as English, Arabic and Chinese. But many of the world’s languages and culture are dying out. In my presentation I will examine the problem of languages and culture, dying and the solutions, such as writing books and increasing language population levels.
Firstly, as the technology improves, people around the world are relying more and more on electronic devices to communicate with each other. While this trend is helping the major culture, it is having a harmful effect on the minor culture that could be swallowed up by the major culture.
Secondly, some of the world’s languages are not being learned widely by children or used in daily commerce. In some boarding schools, children were punished for speaking their parent’s language. Despite the desires of language and culture activists, the outlook is somewhat grim.
People already realize this problem exists and are trying to solve it. For one solution, people can record the culture and languages on books or tapes, making sure our descendants can learn or use them in the future.
The second solution is increasing the language population levels. Governments can make some policies, like encouragement for people to learn and teach the languages facing extinction, no matter whether the language is used in daily commerce or not. By trying to keep them alive, at least they have a future as second languages.
The important thing is to learn the elder’s tongue and culture before it’s too late. Otherwise we will lose them. 解析： 暂无解析 -

问答题Practice 3 You should spend about 40 minutes on this task. Write about the following topic: Students at schools and universities learn far more from lessons with teachers than from other sources (such as the Internet and television). To what extent do you agree or disagree? You should write at least 250 words.正确答案： 【参考范文】
Rapid development of technology provides convenience and freshness for many aspects of people’s life, including education. Nowadays, students become more reliable on computers for research and are often asked to hand in a perfect paper by schools. Others even have decided to give up the original way of learning and to obtain knowledge through online institutions. These changes in learning and teaching methords have aroused a special concern regarding the fading of teacher s’ giving lectures in classrooms.
Some people observe that compared with that of an original classroom, the role of teachers is beginning to drop because computers can help students study faster. For example, in the classroom, most of students’ intellectual capacities can not be activated, and thus some would be confined to a slow advance in their studies because of others' lower capacity of understanding. However, thanks to the new study mode, pupils could progress in their acquisition of knowledge at their own pace.
The presence of teachers, however, is essential for students because human interaction plays positive and significant roles which can hardly be replaced by the cold machines. Firstly, from teachers, students can gain more than mere knowledge in the textbooks. They can cultivate their interest in certain subjects and establish emotions with students and teachers. They can learn the importance of communication through working in a group and how to respect other students. Furthermore, it is necessary to have teachers in the learning process to learn students' deficiencies and help them solve their problems by repeating explanations, giving extra instructions or even suggesting a tutor. Hence, students can have a bigger chance of passing exams.
To conclude, although computers and the Internet do brings convenience and speed, the role of teachers in the learning process is still very important and it will continue to be in the future because machines cannot replace human interaction.解析： 暂无解析 -

What’s your view?正确答案： 【参考答案】
Recently, more and more people believe that a building should serve its purpose rather than looking beautiful, whether the architects should worry about buildings as works of art has become an issue of controversy. Before presenting my opinion, I would like to probe into both sides of the debate.
Critics argue about the shortcomings of buildings designed as works of art. First of all, it needs a great sum of money to design beautiful buildings with extra decorations. Most people would like to have better infrastructures and recreational facilities rather than a better look. Secondly, the side effects brought by artistic designs also arouse people’s wide concern. They worry about the safety of buildings and they believe the steadiness is more essential. Last but not least, the appearance which is loved by the designers may not be accepted by everyone. Different people have discrepant views. It is easier said than done to settle a proposal satisfying everybody.
Supporters also claim that there are a large number of benefits following the special architectures. For one thing, we can hand down our cultural heritages by constructions. If we fail to build up symbols of our tradition, our descendants may forget it someday. For another thing, it’s also a good way to enhance the embellishment. There is no doubt that a good image of the city could successfully attract the world’s attention and powder .the dwellers with more opportunities. Also worth mentioning is that it can give us good feelings. Under such circumstance, people could work more efficiently and rest more comfortably.
Generally speaking, both of their views are rational. But personally, I side with the latter one.

What can the degrees bring to people? 3. Do you think it’s necessary to have increased emphasis on degrees in our society? Why?正确答案： 【参考答案】
People have several arguments against the need for degrees. They say that having so many graduates devalues a degree. People lose respect for the degree holder. It is also claimed that education has become a rat race. Graduates have to compete for jobs even after years of studying.
Another point is that studying for such a long time leads to. learners becoming inflexible. They know a lot about one narrow subject, but are unable to apply their skills. Employers prefer more flexible and adaptable workers.
However, I feel strongly that this move to having more qualifications is a positive development.
In the past education was only for the rich and powerful. Now it is available to everyone, and this will have many advantages for the country and the individual. First of all, it is impossible to be overeducated. The more people are educated, the better the world will be, because people will be able to discuss and exchange ideas. A further point is that people with degrees have many more opportunities. They can take a wider variety of jobs and do what they enjoy doing, instead of being forced to take a job they dislike. Finally, a highly educated workforce is good for the economy of the country. It attracts foreign investment.
In conclusion, although there are undoubtedly some problems with increased levels of education, I feel strongly that the country can only progress if all its people are educated to the maximum of their ability.解析： 暂无解析 -

My name is... My registration number is... My topic is: Talk about Virtue.
We must uphold these core virtues including diligence, honesty, justice and responsibility. Traditionally, we Chinese admire the virtue of plain living and hard struggle. The vital importance is also placed on honesty and justice.
In my eyes, however, responsibility tops our priority. To shoulder some heavy responsibilities, we must keep a style of plain living and hard struggle. Responsibility also means honesty and justice. Everyone must assume a set of responsibilities. For example, we college students must take the responsibility for pursuing the impressive academic performance. But an army of students plant themselves in online games, an activity which compels them to shun huge responsibilities.
The virtue of responsibility is strongly associated with the “Eight Dos and Don’ts” moral campaign in full swing. Under this slogan, everyone must take on his/her own responsibilities and dedicate to his/her own position. Unquestionably, everyone must promote the socialist concept of honor and disgrace. 解析： 暂无解析 -

Discuss both views. 2) Give your own opinion about this issue. 3) What can we do to ensure the TV and video make a positive effect on our children?正确答案： 【参考答案】
It is true that a lot of children, from below 3 to high school, would like to spend time in watching a range of TV programs and videos. One of the most obvious reasons for this is that these are so attractive, vivid and touching our lives that the children who are curious cannot resist their temptation at all.
Some people, especially the parents, argue that this is very damaging. They probably begin by pointing out that their children who are limited in self-control and self-principle will easily take too much time in watching instead of being back to study after doing for a short while. In addition to this, it is well aware that the amount of violence and unhealthy pictures are filled with videos for some reasons. When children who are still simple watch too much amount without any correct guidance, some of them will easily break the laws in the realistic world by imitating the details of crimes.
However, others who disbelieve watching TV or video is bad claim that TV programs and the amount of videos can fully help children understand outside world or relax their stressful brains after intense study. Obviously, those who often watch TV have a wider range of knowledge and better understandings to our society than those who do not. All of this is beneficial to children’s growth and their future social life.
Overall, I would like to say that watching TV or videos are necessary for children who need knowledge and information, but the point is that parents must ensure their children not to watch too much or too long, and at the same time the Government should give a harsh warning to media with overuse of unhealthy contents. 解析： 暂无解析 -

问答题Task II（20 points）Directions:Your class has recently had a discussion on violence on television and in films today. Your teacher has now asked you to write a composition giving your opinion on the following statement. Violence on television and in films can make young people behave badly. Please write your composition in no less than 160 words on the Answer Sheet.正确答案：
Nowadays, many violent pictures have appeared on the screen of the televisions and films. Those violent films not only give a strong influence on adults, but also bring a tremendous effect on the young people.
First and foremost, violence on TV or in films is portrayed as vividly as possible in order to attract audience. This will definitely set a bad example for all the audiences who are watching, especially those young children lack of parents’ guidance. Secondly, immature audiences are easily influenced by the violent pictures. They are likely to imitate the violent behavior just because that behavior seems different. This underlies a potential for possible future crime. Thirdly, the violent pictures influence not only the behavior of those immature audiences, but also their minds. They might become aggressive and cold-blooded, which would enhance the violent crime of the society.
In a word, violence on TV or in films plays a bad role for the growth of our teenagers. The government should take measures to control those violence pictures and give our young people a clean growing environment.

问答题Practice 5 You should spend about 40 minutes on this task. Write about the following topic: If a product is of good quality and meets people's needs, people will buy it, Therefore, advertising is unnecessary and is no more than a type of entertainment, To what extent do you agree or disagree? You should write at least 250 words.正确答案： 【参考范文】
With the popularization of media, many manufacturers take advantage of advertisement to publicize their products. Whether you like it or not, advertisements have become an indispensable part of modern entertainment. Therefore, some believe that they have more entertaining functions instead of genuine promoting objectives. As far as I am concerned, I cannot totally agree with this argument.
Admittedly, as more advertisements tend to invite celebrities like movie stars and pop singers to be their image spokespersons. But the questions are: who pays the bill in advertising areas and what is the intention?
The producers invest great sums of money in the advertisements with the only ultimate purpose of selling more products at a higher price. Although some advertisements have entertaining elements, the original intentions can never change. To begin with, by effective communicative means, the advertisements can attract more audience to enlarge the customer base. In other words, people get to know a product from advertisements on channels like TV or posters on buses. The second level is more important. Advertisement can leave audience with a deeper impression. With the great help of modem media, people can easily sink into a public effect. Consumers are apt to follow trends formed by ads. Last, there is possibility that some ads may contain some false information of the product in order to exaggerate the functions and cover some shortcomings. As a saying goes, “There is no reasonable consumer, but only crazy buyer tempted by advertising.” Ads easily lead to irrational shoppers.
In conclusion, advertisements are a vital element in the commerce for selling products or services. But the entertaining elements should be judged with sense and reason.解析： 暂无解析 -

My name is…My registration number is…My topic is: Will petty criminals get light punishment?
A new prosecution guideline was recently released. It says that if the petty criminals are minors, old or very poor, they may get light punishment. The public hold different attitudes towards this guideline.
Some people think that the regulation violates the principle that “everyone is equal before the law”. It also breaches the legal principle that citizens’ property is inviolable. But more people, me included, think that the new guideline represents the combination of leniency and severity, and it helps to promote social harmony. Although China is now richer than before, the gap between the rich and the poor is widening. Therefore, social conflicts may arise due to the widening of such gaps and there is the possibility for those who lack basic social security to violate laws for survival. As a way to tackle these problems, the judicial system surely needs to do something for the disadvantaged group. The stipulation that people who have committed a small crime because of poverty will be exempted from prosecution is actually a kind of protection to the helpless from a legal perspective.
Furthermore, we all know that the objective of the judicial system is to prevent crimes rather than to punish wrongdoers. If one is severely punished because he steals bread for survival, the punishment may damage his whole life and lead him to commit more serious crimes. Severity does reflect justice and objectivity, but sometimes leniency can be more effective in saving the soul of an individual, because it will affect the hearts and minds of the petty criminals. It reflects tolerance and humanity and may play a more positive role in helping criminals make a fresh start.
In a word, if the law can show both leniency and severity at the same time, it will be the most解析： 暂无解析 -

问答题Practice 3 Think carefully about the issue presented in the following excerpt and the assignment below. Many among us like to blame violence and immorality in the media for a decline immortals in society: Yet these people seem to have lost touch with logic. Any objective examination shows that our society is far less violent or exploitative than virtually any society in the past. Early humans murdered and enslaved each other with astonishing regularity, without the help of gangster rap or Jerry Bruckheimer films. Assignment: Do violence and immorality in the media make our society more dangerous and immoral? Write an essay in which you answer this question and discuss your point of view on this issue. Support your position logically with examples from literature, the arts, history, politics, science and technology, current events, or your experience or observation.正确答案： 【参考范文】
One of the most misguided notions of conventional wisdom is that depicting violence in the media makes our society more violent. A close examination shows that this claim is baseless. Societies with severe restrictions on violence in the media tend to be more, not less, violent than those with no such restrictions. Indeed, despite the popular myth of a more peaceful past, societies were far more violent before the advent of movies, television, and video games. Societies that restrict access to immoral western movies are the same ones that call their citizens to violent and irrational holy war. As Michael Moore pointed out poignantly in the movie Bowling for Columbine, Americans kill each other with firearms at a far greater rate than al- most any other first-world nation. But he is quick to point out that our media is not more violent than those in Japan or Germany or even Canada, which have rates of violence that are a full order of magnitude lower than ours. Indeed, the killers among us are not likely to spend a lot of time listening to Marilyn Manson or playing Mortal Kombat on their Play- stations, despite what our more nearsighted and sanctimonious politicians and preachers would like us to believe. Ted Kaczynski, the Unabomber, lived in a one-room shack without electricity or running water, let alone cable. But even if murderers like Kaczynski were video game addicts, attributing their motives to media violence would be missing the point entirely. People who are habitually violent have adopted a war mentality. They tend to see the world in black- and-white, us-against-them terms. Tragically, our leaders tend to have this very same mentality, but they couch it in patriotism. Lobbing cruise missiles and landing marines in another country is not considered a horrible last resort, but a patriotic duty. If we wish to understand why Americans are more violent than the Japanese, violence in the media will hold no answers; Japanese kids watch just as much violence. Foreign policy is far more telling: which country has leaders who engage in violence against other countries at every opportunity, and constantly try to convince us that it’s right? If our pundits and politicians were truly concerned about making a safer world—and there are many reasons to believe they are not, since they profit the most from a fearful citizenry—they would begin by acknowledging that violence is almost a desperate grab for control from a person or people who believe they are being repressed. If we want a more peaceful and noble society, then we will stop coercing other countries with violence and economic oppression. As Franklin Roosevelt said, We have nothing to fear but fear itself. We are the most fearful nation on the planet, and we are paying for it.解析： 暂无解析
