　　GRE写作题库之GRE作文题目：

　　103"The study of history has value only to the extent that it is relevant to our daily lives."

　　GRE写作精讲之提纲解析：

　　103 学习历史的作用不仅仅在于日常生活

　　1、历史研究和日常生活的直接关系不大

　　2、对个人来说，历史人物可以激励

　　3、对社会来说，历史研究的经验教训可以避免犯错

　　103. 只有在历史研究与我们的日常生活相关的前提下，历史研究才有价值。

　　1、 不可否认一些历史的价值已经不能够适应现代的高科技时代了(the rapid change of technological advance

　　have made many historical events and lessons have little values in modern society)

　　2、 但是，大部分的历史事实能够帮助人们认识社会的发展历程，并总结出发展的规律，在社会发展中提供指导。

　　3、 从前辈们的教训中，现代人能够吸取他们的教训，并避免发展中出现失误。比如环境问题

　　4、 正确对待历史的态度应当是有选择的吸收，换句话说就是吸取其中有用的，把没用过时的去掉

　　103 研究历史的价值只体现在这种研究和我们的日常生活相关时。

　　Insofar as possible 尽可能

　　不同意

　　The speaker alleges。。。only insofar as。。。I find this allegation to be specious。。。It wrongly suggests。。。

　　To the contrary,。。。

　　studying historical examples of courage in the face of adversity can provide motivation to face their

　　own personal fears in life

　　历史让个人明白社会变化：

　　History is indispensable to understanding why such changes occur.

　　Once we determine when the trend began, we can try to identify which of the factors present at the 119

　　time combined to set the trend in motion.

　　A purely contemporary analysis may shed some light on the problem, but a historical assessment is

　　clearly fundamental—and essential for anyone concerned about …

　　History as art and entertainment serves a real purpose, on aesthetic grounds but also on the level of

　　human understanding. Stories well done are stories that reveal how people and societies have actually

　　functioned, and they prompt thoughts about he human experience in other times and places. The

　　same aesthetic and humanistic goals inspire people to immerse themselves in efforts to reconstruct

　　quite remote pasts, far removed from immediate, present-day utility.

　　比如：high-art 艺术家，知道了 Van Gogh 后就明白坚持艺术要孤独要艰辛

　　Require strong belief, persistence, and the ability to bear loneliness and misunderstanding.

　　Van Gogh, two of whose still life paintings have recently broken all records in selling for $50 million,

　　sold only one of his paintings in his entire career.

　　Yet, an ever-lengthening honor roll distinguishes works first received as unacceptable by resistant

　　audiences.

　　错过的不要再错：to avoid repeating those mistakes.

　　比如：二战 世界混乱，经济 depression, 人们苦难suffer，进步停滞 impede development 知道和平的珍贵，

　　stability and peace，treasure

　　范文例子：

　　The nuclear accidents at Three Mile Island and Chernobyl have been studied to ensure that they do not

　　happen again. Certainly the study of the effects of nuclear materials on humans and the environment

　　provides value beyond that of the day-to-day life of people. The study of oil spills and their effects on

　　the environment gives similar guidance on how to avoid or at least minimize the damage of an oil spill

　　on the environment. The study of the disintegration of the ozone layer over the poles of the earth has

　　given birth to new laws and regulations on certain chemicals that help to preserve this valuable part

　　of our atmosphere.

　　All of these examples of studying history provide value far beyond its impact on the daily lives of

　　people.

　　宝贵遗产，至今适用：precious historical heritage

　　History also provides a terrain for moral contemplation.

　　比如：孔子的话“two heads are better than one” “know is know…”

　　Socrates : Genuine education, as Socrates knew more than two thousand years ago, is not

　　inserting the stuffing of information into a person, but rather eliciting knowledge from him; it is

　　drawing out of what is in the mind.

　　孙子兵法 From the ancient Chinese author Sun Tzu's book "The Art of War", today's military

　　commanders and even business leaders gather valuable information that allows them to operate more

　　efficiently and effectively.

　　对国家忠诚：histories that tell the national story, emphasizing distinctive features of the national

　　experience, are meant to drive home an understanding of national values and a commitment to

　　national loyalty.

　　比如：美国独立战争

　　总结：不仅明白，而且提高修养

　　Helps us understand how recent, current, and prospective changes that affect the lives of citizens

　　are emerging or may emerge and what causes are involved

　　Lift spirits.

　　In sum, the speaker fails to recognize that in all our activities and decisions--from our grandest to our

　　most rote--history can inspire, inform, guide, and nurture. In the final analysis, to study history is to

　　gain the capacity to be more human--and I would be hard-pressed to imagine a worthier end.

　　另一开头：To state … is to ignore the value …It would seem to be a rather shallow statement that 120

　　implies … only …rather than …

　　103 在现代社会，科技的进步导致传统观念和过去人类积累的经验都面临挑战 moral euthanasia

　　Homosexuality;world issue nuclear warfare。医学上，AIDS, SARS.有些情况没有出现过，有些可能用不上

　　但更多是有用的。At the individual level, 从历史中得到鼓舞,吸取经验教训。如：Edison; perpetual motion

　　machine。Community level，了解 GE100 年来发展的历史有借鉴意义。了解一个国家，一个民族的历史得到归

　　属感。，中国人对自己 5000年历史的了解更使他民族自豪感和爱国。At the nation level, only seek into history

　　can we learn how events cone into being.如：苏联解体，冷战后的世界格局。研究世界大战的起因，能够避

　　免今后发生同样的战争

　　有些看似回顾历史没有用处，但是确很有用，比如犯罪，社会运动。都是人本性的作用，了解历史能把握这些，更

　　好的制定政策。

　　但是不能简单的照搬历史，毕竟当今和过去有着千差万别，很多客观调价都变了，学要我们根据今天的具体情况来

　　调整，得出符合实际的解决问题的方法。比如教育制度，就不能只按照过去的内容来教育学生，科技的进步，要求

　　我们加入新的知识。

　　103历史与日常生活

　　一、不同意,far more than，通过历史，对于个人来说人们 establish our value system, refine our personality,

　　and define ourselves，对于社会，经验和教训

　　二、Studying history, for an individual, is useful.

　　1.Children come to the world...学习历史人物

　　2.To upper degree，牛顿巨人，framework and basic ideas, 找到灵感

　　三、 resorting to history, individuals define themselves, and have a sense of who they are.

　　1.每个社会有独特的祖先形成的belief，shared by its members

　　2.Socialization is the process...

　　3. history teaching people what the environment around them is, and what beliefs are valued.

　　4.日本武士精神，美国民主—the ways Americans behave

　　四、the society can learn much from history.

　　1.Avoid tragedies 非典，原子弹, Prohibition

　　2.学习经验，发展中国家

　　103T "The study of history has value only to the extent that it is relevant to our daily lives." 103. 只

　　有当历史和我们的生活相关时，对它的研究才有扩展性和价值

　　要侧重讨论那些看起来和现在无关的历史的有用性。

　　① 在现代社会，科技的进步导致传统观念和过去人类积累的经验都面临挑战 euthanasia;nuclear warfare。有些

　　情况没有出现过，有些可能用不上

　　② 与日常生活有关的。At the individual level, 从历史中得到鼓舞,吸取经验教训。如：Edison; perpetual motion

　　machine

　　③ 与日常生活无关的，但与国家决策有关的。At the nation level, only seek into history can we learn how

　　events cone into being.如：苏联解体，冷战后的世界格局。

　　④ 有些历史事件表面上看来与现代社会无关，但是本质上，都是人类社会发展中的各个台阶，应当符合历史发展的

　　客观规律。

　　First of all, to study history is to look at a road map of human behavior that has led us to where we are

　　today in the world. For example, the lessons learned during all of the past wars can make for more

　　effective wartime leadership by avoiding mistakes made by past commanders. From the ancient

　　Chinese author Sun Tzu's book "The Art of War", today's military commanders and even business

　　leaders gather valuable information that allows them to operate more efficiently and effectively.

　　Another example is that by studying history, parents can help to improve the lives of their children in

　　the future. 121

　　Additionally, the study of medical advances made throughout history can be the foundation to build

　　upon to make the medical advances of today and tomorrow to make people live longer and healthier

　　lives.

　　A further example of the value of the study of history beyond its effect on daily life is the treatment of

　　the environment and the earth as a whole
