Issue No.208
"The way people look, dress, and act reveals their attitudes and interests. You can tell much about a society's ideas and values by observing the appearance and behavior of its people."
The speaker asserts that we can tell a society's ideas and values by observing the appearance and behavior of its people since the attitudes and interests of individual could be revealed by their look, dress and act. I fundamentally agree with the author for sometimes our behavior could be a aspect to understand the entire society. However, it is still far from knowing(这个词我觉得有些基础,可以替换一下,如deliberate比knowing要在认识的层面上更深一些)
a society as a whole.
People always dress as the way the(they) like, for instance, a man who always wear sport shoes may have a interest in exercises or because the sports shoes make him feel comfortable. In either of the case, his habit reflects the interests of and attitudes toward life. (这里应该具体展开一下the man always wear sports shoes , what is his society attitudes and values. Such like he enjoy pleasure and healthy life etc.)In another word, our attitudes and interests definitely have a great influence on our daily life. Therefore, the way we look, dress, and act as we(our) behavior, if it is not a deliberately camouflage, can reveal our interests and attitudes.只说了dress, habits can reflect attitude,但是对于attitude would influence life只是说了概念,没有展开,有些略空,只要捎带着上述的例子展开一下就比较好了
When we turn to the behavior of people, it is not hard to find out(observe), although it differs from each other(others), it is coherent with the values and ideas of the society to some extent. For example, the presidential syatem(system) and the whole electoral procedure of America which we get to know from the look, dress and act of candidates and many other people involved show that the liberty plays a significant role in this society's development. Everyone would like to obey the simple rule that all of them are born equal and on(no) one have the authority to deprive their civil rights without legal permission. Therefore, people's behavior could reflects the values and ideas of society to a certain extent.
However, basically, the people consist the whole society vary remarkably, ranging from higher educational to those may pose a threat to human like terrorists. When we want to understand the ideas and values of a society, which group of people we should turn to observe? The one that takes up the dominant population of the large society, the people whose behavior against the tendency of the development of human beings, or all of them? Let alone even the people of the similar group could have different attitudes and interests. From my perspective, it is a really complicated and comprehensive problem and we must analyse it from various aspects. The people, which make up the whole society, can merely be considered a part of the society. Furthermore, the ideas and values of a society cannot be determined only by the the people's interests and attitudes. Because the essence of a society, including the values, ideas, the intrinsic motivation for its vitality, associates with the society's developing history, culture, and so forth. Merely based on the interests and attitudes of the varied collection of individual is far from satisfactory.
In conclusion, the ideas and values of a society cannot be the simple combination of the interests and attitudes of all the people. So as to fully understand it, we should observe and appreciate(appreciate
多表赏识、欣赏之意,我认为这里用observe的递进词比较好些,如deliberate/calculated/considered) other indispensable elements.
绿色的表示好的词,红色和粉色是错误,浅蓝色的是我对文章的小提议
总体来说例子不太能充分证明观点,上下文的逻辑也不是十分的紧密。这篇文章我写的时候也是社会观和行为直接不能充分的辩证。
我写作文开始没多久,改的好不好对不对的,请多指教~互相加油哈:loveliness: |
