本次的这篇issue的题目如下：

Claim: Even though young people often receive the advice to follow your

dreams, more emphasis should be placed on picking worthy goals.

Reason: Many people’s dreams are inherently selfish.

Write a response in which you discuss the extent to which you agree or

disagree with the claim AND the reason on which that claim is based.

学生习作：

Follow your dreams is an inspirational quote to urge youngsters to follow

their goals,passion.These dreams are usually about having a successful career,

lifestyle,becoming like role models.Though it may appear selfish it is personal

goals, passion, concerns,hobbies.These goals are worthy enough from individual

perspective.Picking worthy goals such as community development,bringing in

changes in society like to fight for a cause ,demands courage,involves hardship,

lot of risks.

Follow your dreams will motivate yougsters to do hardwork, overcome their

barriers, difficulties on the way to fullfill their dreams.There will be many

lessons learnt on their way to achieve those dreams.For example, sincerity,

focus, patience, persistent, since nothing comes easy in this world.If the

dreams come true that would be the culmination of their pursuits.They will be

repleted with joy, happiness, positive energy.

There are personalities in history where in people have picked worthy goals

and been succesful.Famous personality like B.R ambedkar who was indian jurist

campaigned against social discrmination, caste system.Coming from a poor family

, being treated as untouchables,his father encouraged him to study well and work

hard. At school,he was not assisted by teacher, not allowed to sit with other

students . Inspite of all this adversities, he managed to become a jurist and

uplifted untouchable to educate them.This takes lot of

responsibility,courage,risk, painstaking effort to achieve such goals.Majority

youngsters are not ready to take such risk, responsibilities,lack courage to do

it.

Contrast to the above claim,there are many hapless youngsters who cannot

follow thier dreams.Consider families stricken by problems of poverty, deceased

family members, poor economic conditions. In such hostile conditions where it is

very difficult to even attain the basic necessities of food,cloth, housing

"follow your dreams" would be distant.From a common man perspective he will only

advice his kids/youngster in the family to study well, take up job to improve

their economic conditions.In such families , youngster have no choices other

than to suppress their dreams, desire, passion.

老师点评：

第一，这篇文章的语法错误很多。

比如“Though it may appear selfish it is personal goals, passion, concerns,

hobbies."

这句话里面，首先it是什么?如果是指dreams，那么应该是they。所以it指代不明。另外，为什么用though，这里的转折语气怎么体现的?怎么就和personal

goals, passion, concerns, hobbies成相反的意思了呢?

另外再比如：Follow your dreams will motivate youngster to do hardwork, overcome

their barriers, difficulties on the way to fulfill their dreams.

这里的问题是，不是follow your dreams来motivates。人们是为了follow

dreams然后motivate自己。先后因果就反了。

第二，除了语法问题，另外这篇文章的立场一致不鲜明。你必须要在一开头就摆明自己的观点：

a) "I agree that emphasis should be placed on picking worthy goals, not

simply following dreams"

or b) I disagree, and believe that telling kids to follow their dreams is

just fine.

第三，你的议论逻辑很混乱。最后一段说到人们没有follow their dreams. 这个和话题无关。你应该说的是：whether people

should be told to follow their dreams, or to focus on something less

selfish.

第四，你缺少一个结尾。这篇文章结束的太草率了。

以上就是我的点评。
