Due to the technology explosion, our society is driving forward at an unprecedented speed while the nature of our human beings changes a little, both of these lead to little attention on the intellect.
First of all, the rapid changes in the society keep people running but no time for thinking.这个表达有点怪,我明白你得意思。但是我从来没有见过这样的表达 In this increasingly compelling competition, every body should burst out their energy and wit day and night to get the job opportunities and higher salaries. From the first appliance of the assembly-line to the automobile manufacturers in Ford, even though great productivity emerges, the blue-collar workers have been put into part of the line and repeat the same task hours and hours, months and months. Sometimes, these workers almost understand nothing about the products they produce, needless to say the cultivation of the intellect. And when the robotized offices appears, the white-collars are also involve into the no-idea world, since what they have to do is just press the button on the copy machines or the printers. The growing improvement of the personal computer is trying its most to format our head. Television, magazines, newspapers, radios and the internet throw into our brains thousands of pieces of information and alternate minutes by minutes, no room for us to consider for a while. In short, people have to and only have to run. If anyone stop to think, reason and analyze, he/she would be submerged by the explosion of the information.这段感觉有点散,ts说的是rapid change in society, 而你论证的是assembly-line ,Robert 等模式化的东西。 感觉是两回事。可以重新组织一下, 说模式化的生产带来了高效率,限制的人们的创造性。另外信息爆炸不一定会限制人们的cognitive skills, 信息多样提供了更多思路,有利于人们cognitive thinking。可以说信息爆炸占用了人们很多筛选信息的时间,使得人们没有很多时间去思考
On the other hand, it is the human nature, to manipulate and to be manipulated, which leads to little emphasis on the intellect. There is a growing dislike of the original, creative people in our society, especially in politics. In other words, if one questions what the superior tells, one may not find the pigeon holes for one's own. We can look no further than the Goerge Owell's horror novel, 1984, in which the people are formulized and wear the same clothes physically and psychologically, all numbered and registered. No one can deny the fact that only those who submit the leaders and do what they are told can get on in this society. This also happens in companies, where the warm and colorful men would stay at the same place for years and even be fired out. Seldom the inferiors with high intellect on reasoning, judgment, analyzed, synthesis can be promoted. Thus, as the laziness exists in most people, the ability on question and other cognitive skills has been paid little attention. 这一段感觉论证有点怪,至少从我的角度。人生来是很有创造性地,并不是by nature to manipulate and to be manipulated.
Meanwhile, our education system also contributes to the insufficient emphasis on cognitive skills. Nowadays, our education system is driving on the lane that the students should be sit down to listen to the teachers, doing what the teachers have shown. It is true that children grow up by imitating others around, but the schools fail to teach them the cognitive skills and a students with lots of questions would be considered to be abnormal. That is the consequence of Thomas Edison drummed out of school. But we are fortunate as well as Edison, attributing to Edison's mother who leads him to understand the fantastic world. Not all the children have this fortune. In schools, the grades greatly depend on the resemblance between the students' answer and the standards. The goal of our education, to foster original and creative future leaders, has been distorted.
In sum, human beings are gradually losing the basic cognitive skills due to the rapid social changes. Even though the technology in this era can help us in many fields, we still have a long way to reach the actually modern and civilized society, in which more cognitive skills are needed to improve and develop.
我对这篇文章的破题 和作者不太一样。Intellect 智力,理解力,智商。与它相对的还有creativity 和 emotion
我的提纲是1 society has paid attention on reasoning and cognitive skills, 例如学校里教授的课程都是在培养逻辑思维。社会也是建立在reasoning and cognitive skills 的基础上,例如法律。 我们在这里练gre写作不也正是在培养逻辑思维吗;
2 但是由于社会的发展,模式化的工业生产,Robert, computer 等人们总是被要求按照一定的模式去工作,限制了人们的创造性
3 除了intellect 外,社会还应该注意 unintellect 方面, 例如情感教育等。
由于破题角度不同,给楼主的建议也不多。谢谢排砖指正 |
