The absence of choice is a circumstance that is very, very rare.


We are so frustrated nowadays not by the absence of choice but by not knowing how to make our best choice, and when some people claim that they have on choice, it is not true that they are out of choice, but they are confined by certain restrains to make their most desired choice or the options offered to them are not as good as they wish. So the statement is fundamentally right, the situation of no choice, though exists, is very rare.

The development of economy, science, technology enriched our options of choice. And we are entitled by the law to make our own choice in a democracy society.We make our choice form daily life such as what to eat what to dress to big decisions such as getting married or stay single, to be a member of certain religious group or be an atheist, to be a supporter of some political party or just stay out of politics. It is not that we are out of choice that confusing us, it is that we don't really know what we want for our life that troubles us.
But there were days when people are deprived of making their own choice because of lack of law or because of unjust laws. In ancient china the so called laws were set by the emperor to his own benefits. People under the ruling of emperor were just conducting the wills of the emperor; there was no negotiation about making their own choice. And it was also true as to Jews in Germany under the rule of Hitler; they were deprived of the basic right of life not to say other choices; and in American before civil rights, black person had no choice of veto, they could not chose to serve in the army, they also had no choice of being served as their white peer. And some times the option is decided by the law to the best benefits of the whole society which leaves its people no choice. For example, the one-child-policy in china, It is planned by the law that one couple could only have one child no matter how many children they want. The law is set for the benefits of the whole society for the country just don't have enough space and resources to support its increasing population. And also the compulsory education law in china, children have to finish the basic education no matter they want it or not. The law was set under the assumption that only after this education can one be qualified for a good citizen and it is to the individual’s best for them to live better in the society.

And except the restrains set by the laws nowadays people still complain about not having a choice. But as I understand it, it is not that they have no choice, it is the options are not the best in satisfying their desire. A student may complain that he has no choice but to study hard and pass the examinations so as to graduate. But the truth is he has the choice of not to take the examination and don't graduate. The absence of choice here is caused by the hope that he doesn't need to study hard but could still graduate. The choice of study hard and graduate or the choice of not study and don't graduate are not satisfied. But one can’t have his cake and eat it too, or surely he will be out of choice. And I assume that an unreasonable choice should not be called choice. Another situation I heard people complain about they don't have choice is in the election veto. The candidate they prefer are not on the option list so they can’t chose to veto for him. But the election veto is to present the choice of the whole community, and personal choice should give way to the overall benefits. But still he could give up his right to chose among these unsatisfied candidates, it is also a choice.


To sum up, in a non-democracy society, its people were deprived of choice and in certain particular history period a democracy society could also be unfair to some group on that it leaves them no choice for some basic human rights. Besides these, when people are complaining about lack of choice, they are not actually out of choice, they are just fail to satisfy unreasonable desire or want to make his choice over community choice. Except these situations, we usually have plenty of choice no matter in daily life options or in big decisions.

挺好的，qualify了题目，TS也很清楚

The development of economy, science, and technology enriched enriches our options of choice. And we are entitled by the law to make our own choice in a democracy society（I think the choice should be restricted here）.We make our choice form daily life normal ones such as what to eat what to dress to big decisions such as getting married or stay staying single, to be a member of certain religious group or be an atheist, to be a supporter of some political party parties or just stay out of politics. It is not that we are out of choice that confusing us, it is that we don't really know what we want for our life that troubles us. （confusing, troubles,你想用哪个时态？注意前后统一）
说不是没选择，是选择太多不知道该选择什么了，这个问题困扰着我们，挺好，就是没例子。

But there were days when people are deprived of making their own choice because of lack of law or because of unjust laws. In ancient china the so called laws were set by the emperor（去the用复数，没特指哪个皇帝不用定冠词，以下同理） to for his own benefits.（for表目的，或者用to meet） People under the ruling of emperor were just conducting the wills of the emperor; there was no negotiation about making their own choice. And it was also true as to Jews in Germany under the rule of Hitler; they were deprived of the basic right of life as human beings not to say other choices; and in American before civil rights, black person had no choice of veto, they could not chose to serve in the army, they also had no choice of being served as their white peer.（serve有对待的意思吗？如果解释成服务的话加个类似in restaurants的地点状语吧，或者直接把served改成treated） And some times the option is decided by the law to the best benefits of the whole society which leaves its people no choice. For example, the one-child-policy Family Planning in china, It is planned stipulated by the law that one couple could only have one child no matter how many children they want. The law is set for the benefits of the whole society for the country just don't have enough space and resources to support its increasing population. And also the compulsory education law in china（这个，compulsory解释成义务，不是强制，以前喜欢读郑渊洁的书，他儿子郑亚旗就没怎么上过学，所以你这例子不大好吧）, children have to finish the basic education no matter they want it or not. The law was set under the assumption that only after this education can one be qualified for a good citizen and it is to the individual’s best for them to live better in the society.
前两个例子说历史，这一点我保留意见，我感觉这个题目最好别说特定的历史阶段，他是一个general statement，用特定的地区，特定的历史，特定的政策去反驳这个题目不大好吧

And except the restrains set by the laws nowadays people still complain about not having a choice. But as I understand it, it is not that they have no choice, it is the options are not the best in satisfying their desire. A student may complain that he has no choice but to study hard and pass the examinations so as to graduate. But the truth is he has the choice of not to take the examination and don't graduate. The absence of choice here is caused by the hope that he doesn't need to study hard but could still graduate. The choice of study hard and graduate or the choice of not study and don't graduate are not satisfied（by……这句话没说完）. But one can’t have his cake and eat it too, or surely he will be out of choice. And I assume that an unreasonable choice should not be called choice. Another situation I heard people complain about they don't have choice is in the election veto. The candidate candidates they prefer are（主谓一致！） not on the option list so they can’t chose to veto vote（看到这才发现你原来搞错了veto和vote，我刚没闹明白你怎么前面说黑人不能投否决票，虽然事实确实如此） for him. But the election veto is to present the choice of the whole community, and personal choice should give way to the overall benefits. But still he could give up his right to chose among these unsatisfied candidates, it is also a choice.
还行，觉得你上述两段应该并成一段，作为concussion，其实思路挺好的。说是没有最佳选择所以觉得没有选择，其实没选择只是illusion

To sum up, in a non-democracy society, its people were deprived of choice and in certain particular history period; whereas a democracy society could also be unfair to some group groups on that because it leaves them no choice for some basic human rights. Besides these, when people are complaining about lack of choice, they are not actually out of choice, they are just fail to satisfy unreasonable desire（这句话说得好绕） or want to make his choice over community choice. Except these situations, we usually have plenty of choice choice no matter in daily life options or in big decisions.

思路挺好，关于语言，我水平有限，很多别人的思路我一时半刻融不进去也改不出什么漂亮的句子，但是你写完作文放world揪揪错吧，会帮别人省很多时间的。

我今天跟我妈争那个义务教育的问题了，我妈说，父母不送孩子去学校是犯法的，我大为诧异，如果我是研究中小学教育的，我自己希望教育自己的孩子都不行？如果我是有钱人，请了全科的老师来辅导，不送孩子去学校也不行？如果我认为小学是误人子弟的地方，我为了孩子不被毒害不送他去小学，结果我得被公安扭送派出所？

事实上，不是我看不起中小学教育，是中国的教育现状决定的，在台湾，中小学老师，包括幼教，他们的社会地位很高，因为他们面对的不仅是这个社会的未来，还是这些孩子们刚刚开始树立人生观价值观的黄金时代，尤为非常极其特别的重要，当然老师的准入门槛就高，你能成为中小学老师，自然说明你水平高。但是反观内地，知识分子是很难选择从事中小学教育工作的，而那些幼教，师范，准入较低，这直接导致中小学老师素质不高，我们怎么放心把孩子放在这些人手里呢？

这是一个恶性循环，这是一个怪圈，老师水平越差，他们的口碑就越低，就越难吸引真正的人才进入这个行业，就导致师资水平更差。我不知道为什么在你这扯这些蛋，可能小学给我留下阴影了，可能我太愤青了，也可能我是个忧国忧民的人，哈哈哈。

你说的很对，现在小学中学教育的质量是不高，我同意义务教务是有缺陷的，但是好处多过坏处，这就是法律是不是just的讨论了

我在这里用这个例子只是想说明，在这样的法律的约束下， there is absence of choice........
