第二次杀G了，上次作文很次，这次希望众大侠出手相助

TOPIC: ISSUE190 - "As long as people in a society are hungry or out of work or lack the basic skills needed to survive, the use of public resources to support the arts is inappropriate-and, perhaps, even cruel-when one considers all the potential uses of such money."

I do not concur with the statement at large for it leaves no corner and contains absolute expression which is easily to be refuted. The core issue underneath the statement is how we should utilize the public resource. And the very nature of public resource is the character of human society that people are organized in a system which benefits all members in general. Thus there is public resource, a donation consisted by basically every member of the society, whose purpose is to augment the society in a whole. By understanding such nature and task of public resource, then we might start to examine the statement by the criteria above. Generally speaking, I deem that both helping the needed and the espousal of arts are public resource's mission.

Indeed, in our society, whenever ages, there are always certain groups of people who need support from public resource, which could be a crucial help in a matter of survival. The human society is stratified, which renders as a shape of olive most time. Hence there are people due to physical or mental problems, or just bad luck born in an impoverished family, who cannot make living only by themselves. In that case, the public resource has to lend a hand, by providing direct support such as food and shelter and indirect help like education. And there might be a time when public resource acts as a vital role in stabilizing the society. Take the Great Depression for example, at that time, the US economical system faced serious challenge that cannot recover by the "invisible hand". Therefore, the government must exert public resource to create employment and make the market confident again. So during that period, the espousal of art might not be much a task for a moment. And if the government still acted as usual, even kept supporting Hollywood movies and those surrealism painters, then there might not be a market to consume those art products. The public resource must help those who are in need all the time.

However, helping those needed does not mean that the public resource must devote all its strength in that task, for the number of the needed could be infinite or too immense that it cannot afford. Thorough the history, among those needed, there is a part of them who would not be improved much by the public resource, or just cannot depend on themselves at all. It is a cruel reality, but a reality none or less. Thereby, if all the public resource is contributed to those people, then there could be many holes in other part of society where help is required. So in general, the public resource cannot eliminate all the poverty and unemployment.

In the other hand, helping the art industry could be beneficial to the whole society. Humans have developed art in an early age of history. The reason for art is most for leisure and enjoyment. Men are not machines, so we entail rest and relax, and this is what original art can provide. By "original art", I mean the inchoate form of art. Nowadays, there is so much more connotation and function embedding in the art. Besides leisure, those art products can hearten people, encouraging them when they are in low, even saving them at the time the thought of suicide crossing the mind. Furthermore, to some people, the art is their livings and reliance, such as those who have a misery growing background. And their art products would help those who have similar surroundings and experiences in turn.

By that effect, the public resource should always espouse the art industry. As I mentioned above, the sole mission of public resource is to enhance human society at large. Therefore, it should be distributed to areas where there are influences on improving the society. And art is definitely one of those areas. Supporting the art industry, the society will benefit a lot, and even those who are needing help from it might receive support in an indirect way, the art way. So supporting the art is both a way to improve the society and a way to help those in needed.

Simply put, the public resource need to be distributed wisely. And both helping the needed and art are its tasks in achieving the goal of enhancing the society in a whole. Hence as the time and circumstances vary, the proportion of public resource for those tasks should be different. But the general guideline remains: do what is conducive to the society most.

我现在基本上明白你以前为什么分数低，因为你只是在写，根本没仔细看过你的句子到底在表达什么意思。就从你第一段，只有2句话勉强表达了意思还有一句话是废话。你应该仔细思考一下一个问题，就是issue说的是人话，每个单词都有它的作用和意思。。你的句子咋一眼看上去还可以，仔细一看，几乎没几句话是对的。这样看着太累人了。简单一句话 就是乱用词汇，完全没考虑你这这一堆单词加在一起到底是什么意思。你把你的句子翻译翻译，字对字翻译成中文，看看自己到底在说什么。

比如

The reason for art is most for leisure and enjoyment.

art的理由？怎么样看也应该是目的，作用这种词吧。诚恳建议，写400字的文章，每句话写对，也好过现在这样。如果语气有点重，不要介意，我看着你我着急阿。。

I do not concur with the statement at large for it leaves no corner and contains absolute expression which is easily to be refuted [你再写argument么，这种没具体信息的句子，完全可以不写]. The core issue underneath the statement is how we should utilize the public resource. And the very nature of public resource is the character of human society that people are organized in a system which benefits all members in general. [这句话完全不通顺，没办法理解是什么意思。资源的属性是人类社会的属性？？]Thus there is public resource, a donation[社会资源可不是donation] consisted by [consist的意思是组成，donation是由人组成的么？] basically every member of the society, whose purpose is to augment the society in a whole. By understanding such nature and task of public resource [什么叫做nature，什么叫做task你到底明白么。一社会资源是一个客观存在，它不是个人，怎么会有task], then we might start to examine the statement by the criteria above[什么criteria]. Generally speaking, I deem that both helping the needed and the espousal of arts are public resource's mission[问题是一样的].
