2012年12月六级作文预测：变与不变

第二部分：预计可能出现的新题型
　　2011年12月17日之前的四六级作文，都给出了中文提纲
　　一种文体是：antithetical-views essay 对立观点作文：写两种对立的观点，最后给出个人观点
　　　另问题则是：problem-solving essay 问题解决作文：解释问题原因危害，给出个人看法建议
　　如果2012年6月的作文继续出现创新，会不会以全英文的的形式，来出这两种问题呢？
　　以下的4篇文章，题目和范文，都来自雅思写作，出题方式和国内四六级写作方式一致
　　对于这四篇范文，大家只要熟悉文章的写作思路就可以，熟读就行
　 　Some people prefer to spend their lives doing the same things and avoiding change. Others , however, think that change is always a good thing. Discuss both these views and give your own opinion.
　　Over the last half century the pace of change in the life of human beings has increased beyond our wildest expectations. This has been driven by technological and scientific breakthroughs that are changing the whole way we view the world on an almost daily basis. This means that change is not always a personal option, but an inescapable fact of life, and we need to constantly adapt to keep pace with it.
　　Those people who believe they have achieved some security by doing the same, familiar things are living in denial. Even when people believe they are resisting change themselves, they cannot stop the world around them from changing. Sooner or later they will find that the familiar jobs no longer exist, or that the ‘safe’ patterns of behavior are not longer appropriate.
　　However, reaching the conclusion that change is inevitable is not the same as assuming that ‘change is always for the better.’ Unfortunately, it is not always the case that new things are promoted because they have good impacts for the majority of people. A lot of innovations are made with the aim of making money for a few. This is because it is the rich and powerful people in our society who are able to impose changes(such as in working conditions or property developments ) that are in their own interests.
　　In conclusion, I would say that change can be stimulating and energizing for individuals when they pursue it themselves, but that all change, including that which is imposed on people, does not necessarily have good outcomes.
