上周六考试的烤鸭们,不知道你们此时此刻的心情如何。据说阅读和听力的难度值得雅思冲上热搜。别的科目暂且不谈,就写作这道考题而言,着实有点小难度。

 

所以,今天和大家一同拆解一下此题。如下两篇例文,供大家参考。

 

Music has always been and continues to be the universal language of mankind. To what extent do you agree or disagree

 

音乐是人类的通用语言。毫无疑问,这是个比喻。其实本题从题型到题干观点都非常简单直白,只不过涉及的话题领域稍微抽象。

 

关于音乐的话题,通常都是和教育类话题混合出现。例如,学校该不该提供音乐教育。学生们该不该学习乐器等等。其实就音乐本身进行讨论,也不是没有。但是的确不算常见。

 

剑桥14真题集的第三个大作文题目就是音乐类,后面会给大家相关例文。我们先来分析一下下面这个例文。

 

In contemporary world, a widespread metaphor is that music can be seen as the worldwide universal language, since a lot of people believe that individuals speaking different languages can gain the same understanding and feeling from listening to the same piece of music.In my opinion, as a language, it should be able to convey more complex information rather than merely expressing simple moods.

 

开头段先是背景介绍。随后话锋一转直接表明立场。作为“语言”,音乐不能表达复杂信息,而只能表现一些简单情绪而已。

 

Primarily,without any doubt, while being immersed in some certain melodies,humans can naturally feel the similar emotion. For example, party music can easily cheer people up, and the music from horror movies from whichever country can readily make film audience terrified. In fact, this is nothing with the information that music can present,and it is just humans’ instinct. An instance in point is that most people without sufficient musical knowledge can not understand what classical piano pieces want to express, and to understand a folk song that was popular over 2,000 years ago in Han Dynasty of my country,historians need to do related research for years.

 

本段着重于纯音乐的讨论。的确听了相同的音乐之后,大部分人会有类似的心情。但是这不能说明音乐可以传播信息,而这只是人们的本能反映。本段开始的两个例子在证明人们的确听了同一段音乐之后会有相似的情绪,但后面两个例子告诉大家其实更复杂的信息一般人根本体会不到。这种例子比比皆是。伯牙子期,高山流水,其实这就是最好的例子。

 

On top of that, what tunes can express is obviously limited, and probably that is why in most cases tunes are with lyrics. This makes songs far more difficult to comprehend for people in different cultural backgrounds. Music fans have to understand the language used by lyricists so as to know whether this song extols love or expresses sorrow. An interesting example is that I have heard a song called“Lemon Tree” since I began to learn English around 10 years ago,and until now I do not know why this singer liked a tree that sincerely. I certainly know its lyrics word by word, but without adequate cultural study, this song is just a cheerful tune for me.

 

这一段把音乐赋予了歌词,但是即使有了歌词,该听不懂还是听不懂。要么是语言不通,要么是缺少文化学习。所以还是不通。本段使用了一个第一人称“本人”的例子来说明事实。此例子比较暴露年龄,可能大部分烤鸭不能感同身受,但是只要能看懂其中逻辑即可。还有一个例子相信大家可以秒懂。印度神曲“我在东北玩泥巴”其实是歌颂爱情的,恐怕大多数跟着欢快了好久的听众,也并不知情。毕竟中文的“情歌”都有种死去活来的感觉,不曾想这印度情歌却如此欢快。

 

In conclusion, music is widely thought to be a lot more than tunes, and it is universally known as the symbol of a region’s culture.Therefore, for understanding the in-depth meaning of a piece of music people need to learn about much knowledge in many aspects. Only in this way, can what musicians indeed want to express be received by all listeners. Thus, it is obviously not the “language” that all humans can understand with ease.

 

结尾段直接回应主题。音乐是地区的文化符号,不是你想懂,想懂就能懂的。所以根本谈不上什么世界语言。

 

如前文所述,其实在剑桥14真题集里面就有类似的题目。如下,供大家参考。

 

Some people say that music is a good way of bringing people of different cultures and ages together. To what extent do you agree or disagree?C14T3

 

Someworld-renowned musicians assert that there is no one who dislikes music, and if there is he or she just has not found the right type of music. In this context, music is often regarded as a social lubricant, especially among people with various cultural backgrounds or in diverse age groups. Personally, it bridges the cultural gap but not the age gap.

 

On one hand, light music in many occasions can be used for icebreaking,for instance, at a welcome party for new students from all over the world. Admittedly, this kind of music can easily make those new comersrelax, get rid of nervousness, and begin to talk with someone they did not know before. This can be attributed to the charm of music,which is worldwide compared to a cross-cultural language. No matter where people are from or who they are, they usually have the same understanding to some certain songs and tunes.

 

On the other hand, while hanging out with people in different ages,people sometimes hope music can serve the same purpose, whereas under this circumstance it is no longer the versatile antidote. Taking a family party as example, the moment young generations play some hip-hop music, the atmosphere is foiled and the elderly will immediately call a taxi. This is simply because older people are unable to understand why contemporary youth are fond of this kind of“noise”. Similarly, old people’s taste of music is definitely not what the young can accept.

 

In a word, without any doubt, music is cross-cultural, cross-linguistic,and cross-sex, and accordingly it can be largely conducive to socializing with people of different cultural backgrounds.Nevertheless, it does not function well to people with difference inage mainly because the musical taste changes dramatically with aging.
