No.1 ISSUE202 政治家是否应该妥协 拍拍,谢~
Issue202: 513 words 40 minutes
Unlike great thinkers and great artists, the most effective political leaders must often yield to public opinion and abandon principle for the sake of compromise.
----------------------
The speaker's statement that the most effective political leaders must often yield to public opinion and abandon principles for sake of compromise. In my point of view, I also concede that for political leaders, practicality should take precedence over the principles, while the politicians should take principles into consideration.
First, let ys [U]us[/U] ? turning to the topics of great thinkers and artists, who do not have to appeal to the opinions of the public. The discipline of art and philosophy are the fields that praise characteristics and differences. [U]没看明白 :( [/U] If a thinker or artist [U]an artist [/U] does not possess a distinct thought or style but always cater to flavor of other people, it is possible that he may not have a memorable set in the history of the discipline.[U]说得太不坚决了吧[/U] ! In contrary, it is often the situation that the distinct styles can obtain much popularity in other people. For example, the works of Picasso, which may be not understandable to many of us, are earned great popularity and reputation.[U]感觉论述得不那么透彻哩[/U] .
However, for political leaders, winning the favor of the public is a key to effective leadership.[U]观点8错[/U] ! The basis of politics is to gain the support of most of the citizens, not to create a peculiar thought. And politics is a business born not only of idealism but also from pragmatism and practicality, which should be rooted in the public favor and support. For example, when a leader raises the taxation rate in order to lessen the pressure of federal [U]用这个词不好,要是英国的领导呢?[/U] budget deficit, without taking into account the demands and interests of its 指什么? citizens, may stir angry and dissatisfaction among people, which might lead to end of his political life. Thus, to earn the support of public is the base of every leader's chief goal.
[U]感觉总是在边上,差一点就扣紧了题目:yield to public opinion [/U] 。
In addition, political policies are often based on the compromise of different interest groups and the dictates of the situation. There are many interest groups in the society, each of which may hold different opinions and demands and interests. What is more, it is usual that these interests may be conflicting with each other. Since the fundamental goal and function of politics is to reconcile the conflicting interests and try best to maximize the overall well-being of the society, an effective political leader should be able to deal with this situation. But how can we to arrive at it? It is essential that leaders should listen to different opinions of each group, based on which to make decisions. During the course, the leader may encounter the circumstance that the possible decision are not according with his own principles, [U]妥协并不见得要放弃原则。 例如一些外交成果是妥协的产物,但政治家并不敢放弃自己的原则。没有原则更容易导致下台。[/U] however, it is still be necessary for him to compromise to the public demands, which is the basis for politics itself. Thus, compromising to public demands and interests is sometimes essential, while it may counter the principles of political leader himself.
The building of politics is built upon the foundation of public. Without a consistent public opinion, political leader will lose the base to stand on. Consequently, the political leaders should sometimes yield to the public opinion and abandon principles of his for the sake of compromise.
[U]40min内写了500多字,8错!总的来说,结构还不错,细节上可以加强。加油! :) [/U] |
