問題: Should students learn to cook at school?

思路 1

Yes
是的
考官答案
Sure, why not? Students study many subjects in school they won't use after graduating. Cooking, however, is a lifelong skill, like riding a bike. Many students go abroad for university and struggle with cooking. They end up relying on ready meals or restaurants, which are unhealthy. Learning to cook would be very beneficial.
當然可以。學生在學校學習許多科目,畢業後可能不會用到。然而,烹飪是一項終身技能,就像騎自行車一樣。許多學生出國讀大學時會在烹飪上有困難。他們最後只能依賴現成餐或餐廳,而這些並不健康。學習烹飪將是非常有益的。
Yes, why not? Students have to study lots of subjects at school that, once they graduate, they will never ever study or use again. Cookery on the other hand is something that they will use for the rest of their lives. It's like riding a bike, so once you know how to do it, you never forget. So many students go to university abroad these days and they have no idea how to cook. This puts an added burden on them as they struggle to find things to eat and either rely on ready meals, or restaurants for food. Both are really unhealthy options.
是的,為什麼不呢?學生在學校裡必須學習許多科目,但畢業後可能永遠不會再學或使用。而烹飪則是一輩子都會用到的技能。就像騎自行車一樣,一旦學會了就不會忘記。如今有許多學生到國外上大學,卻不知道怎麼煮飯。這讓他們更加負擔,因為他們很難找到食物,要麼靠速食,要麼去餐廳用餐。這兩種選項都不是健康的選擇。
語法分析
現在分詞作狀語:"Students have to study lots of subjects at school that, once they graduate, they will never ever study or use again" 中的現在分詞 "studying" 描述了學習的持續狀態,增加了句子的複雜性。 類比:"It's like riding a bike" 使用類比來比較烹飪技能和騎自行車,增強了觀點的通俗易懂性。 現在進行時態:"So many students go to university abroad these days and they have no idea how to cook" 使用現在進行時態描述目前學生的狀況,展現了話題的現實相關性和緊迫感。

思路 2

No
考官答案
I don't think cooking should be part of the school curriculum. The main reason is that students already have packed timetables with essential academic subjects. Adding cooking classes could overburden them. Moreover, cooking involves using knives and other potentially dangerous kitchen tools, which might not be suitable for younger students due to safety concerns.
我認為烹飪不應該成為學校課程的一部分。主要原因是學生已經有壓力重重的時間表,需要學習必要的學術科目。增加烹飪課程可能會使他們負擔過重。此外,烹飪涉及使用刀具等潛在危險的廚房工具,這對於安全考量可能不適合於較年幼的學生。
Incorporating cooking into school curricula might not be the most feasible idea. Firstly, students' schedules are already quite full with critical academic subjects, leaving little room for additional classes. Integrating cooking lessons could add to their workload, which may not be ideal. Additionally, cooking classes involve the use of sharp knives and other equipment, posing safety risks, particularly for younger students. This makes it impractical and potentially hazardous.
將烹飪納入學校課程可能並不是最切實可行的想法。首先,學生的課程安排已經滿檯滿桌,留下很少空間供額外上課。整合烹飪課程可能會增加他們的工作量,這可能並不理想。此外,烹飪課涉及使用鋒利刀具和其他設備,尤其對年幼學生存在安全風險。這使得這個想法不切實際且有潛在危險。
語法分析
1. 被動語態:“將烹飪納入學校課程”使用了被動語態,突出了提議的對象和行為,增加了句子的正式性和複雜性。 2. 副詞修飾形容詞:“最可行的想法”中的“most”修飾形容詞“feasible”,增強了句子的強調效果。 3. 現在分詞作定語:“整合烹飪課程”中的“integrating”作為現在分詞,用作定語,為句子增加了動態感和複雜性。 4. 條件狀語從句:“提出安全風險,特別是對年幼學生”作為條件狀語從句,指出了實施該建議可能面臨的問題,增加了句子的深度和邏輯性。
