雅思大作文题目：

The key to solving environmental problems is simple: present generations must have a less comfortable life for the sake of future generations.

To what extent do you agree or disagree?

【话题分类】

环境类

【题目解析】

题目大意为：解决环境问题的方式很简单：为了下一代，我们这一代必须要过简单的生活。

这个题目要求考生表达“个人观点”，可以是“完全赞同”、“完全不赞同”“部分赞同”或“部分不赞同”。

如果“赞同”，则要写“简单生活如何可以帮助解决环境问题”；如果“不赞同”则要写“为什么简单生活没有办法帮助解决环境问题”。

笔者的观点是“完全不赞同”。

【写作思路】

开头段 - 改写题目+个人观点（完全不赞同题目观点）

理由1：下一代没有环保意识环境仍然遭到破坏

理由2：以后的科技可以很轻松保护环境

总结段 – 重申个人观点+总结主体段要点

【参考范文】

It is argued that to solve issues regarding the environment, individuals ought to be required to abandon their luxurious lifestyle for the benefit of those to come. Personally, I totally disagree with this because degradation of the environment will continue with people lacking the awareness of how to conserve it; meanwhile, advancements in technology will be certain to make it easier to tackle issues faced by nature. 

The primary reason supporting my stance is that even if people now sacrifice their comfortable life, a positive impact on the environment may not necessarily come to fruition. In other words, without sufficient knowledge regarding how to protect the environment imparted to future school pupils, they will be unconscious of the how detrimental their irresponsible behaviour such as wasting water may be to nature. As a consequence, simply asking present generations to make contributions takes no effect. 

Another point I consider relevant is that rapid technological development makes the methods to be employed to mitigate the environment even more diverse and efficient, meaning that it is of no necessity to encourage present generations to yield their satisfying lifestyles. Although the environment has been under pressure since the First Industrial Revolution, human beings have been endeavouring to reverse this dilemma and so far, made tremendous progress. It is then not difficult to expect further steps towards minimising the adverse influences of human life on nature. 

In conclusion, I completely disapprove of the viewpoint that present generations are obliged to give up their comfortable lifestyles to provide a better natural environment for future ones to inhabit. For one thing, the attempts people make now might be in vain if no proper education on environmental protection was delivered to future children; for another, technological advances will make these efforts unnecessary.
