解析政府与城市化雅思写作话题

1. 个人与政府

母题：Some people say that it is the responsibility of individuals to save money for their own care after they retire. To what extent do you agree or disagree? (070825)

提示：关于政府与个人这类话题，肯定是些政府和个人都应当分担责任。

子题：政府要不要为个人的医疗和健康买单?个人不要向国家缴税，你同意吗?公民除了纳税以外还有别的方法来尽社会责任吗?捐助是应该直接捐助给当地社区，还是给国家和国际性慈善组织?人们是否只应当关心当地和本国的人，而不是整个世界的人?

2. 政府应当投资吗?

母题：Some people say arts such as music and painting cannot directly improve the quality of people’s life, so the government shouldn’t put money on art such as music and painting, instead, they should spend more money on construction of public services. Do you agree or disagree? (040626, 041127, 070920, 110611)

提示：政府投资类的话题几乎全都是交叉类话题，分别与教育(谁应该为学费买单)、艺术、科技、健康等话题结合。这类题目的写法大同小异，好处就是围绕各自的交叉来写，如促进教育、艺术、科技的发展，促进公民的健康，等等，而坏处都是一样的：浪费政府的有限的财政lavish the tight budget of the government，或者说给政府造成了沉重的经济负担impose a heavy financial burden on the government.
