精选优质文档-倾情为你奉上写作题库目录官方题(一)Intelligent MachinesThis sample prompt, Intelligent Machines, is representative of the prompts that will be used for the ACT writing test.The test describes an issue and provides three different perspectives on the issue. You are asked to evaluate and analyze the perspectives; to state and develop your own perspective; and to explain the relationship between your perspective and those given. Your score will not be affected by the perspective you take on the issue.Sample promptIntelligent MachinesMany of the goods and services we depend on daily are now supplied by intelligent, automated machines rather than human beings. Robots build cars and other goods on assembly lines, where once there were human workers. Many of our phone conversations are now conducted not with people but with sophisticated technologies. We can now buy goods at a variety of stores without the help of a human cashier. Automation is generally seen as a sign of progress, but what is lost when we replace humans with machines? Given the accelerating variety and prevalence of intelligent machines, it is worth examining the implications and meaning of their presence in our lives.Perspective OnePerspective TwoPerspective ThreeWhat we lose with the replacement of people by machines is some part of our own humanity. Even our mundane daily encounters no longer require from us basic courtesy, respect, and tolerance for other people.Machines are good at low-skills, repetitive jobs, and at high-speed, extremely precise jobs. In both cases they work better than humans. This efficiency leads to a more prosperous and progressive world for everyone.Intelligent machines challenge our long-standing ideas about what humans are or can be. This is good because it pushes both humans and machines toward new, unimagined possibilities.官方题(二)Public Health and Individual FreedomPublic Health and Individual FreedomMost people want to be healthy, and most people want as much freedom as possible to do the things they want. Unfortunately, these two desires sometimes conflict. For example, smoking is prohibited from most public places, which restricts the freedom of some individuals for the sake of the health of others. Likewise, car emissions are regulated in many areas in order to reduce pollution and its health risks to others, which in turn restricts some peoples freedom to drive the vehicles they want. In a society that values both health and freedom, how do we best balance the two? How should we think about conflicts between public health and individual freedom?Perspective OnePerspective TwoPerspective ThreeOur society should strive to achieve the greatest good for the greatest number of people. When the freedom of the individual interferes with that principle, freedom must be restricted.Nothing in society is more valuable than freedom. Perhaps physical health is sometimes improved by restricting freedom, but the cost to the health of our free society is far too great to justify it.The right to avoid health risks is a freedom, too. When we allow individual behavior to endanger others, weve damaged both freedom and health.官方题(三)9月12日北美题Unjust LawsUnjust laws are part of our legal systems. They can restrict our freedom and violate our privacy. People often question themselves whether they should obey those laws. Martin Luther King Jr famously called upon people to oppose the laws that were racially discriminatory and morally wrong. But how do we, as private citizens seeking justice, approach these unjust laws? What is the best way to act in order to ensure that the harms of these laws are minimized and that they are eventually repealed without bringing harm on oneself or those for whom one cares? These are questions worth examining both historically and in our modern society. Perspective OnePerspective TwoPerspective ThreePeople have rights to break the laws when the laws are unjust or immoral.Breaking the law should not be encouraged even if the laws themselves are problematic, because such action would result in chaos.Even if the laws are bad, people have reason to comply with them and seek other ways for change. To defy the laws openly would only bring danger and harm on themselves.官方题(四)9月12日亚太题CreativityCreativityExplore the role of creativity in the life of individual people (回忆版).Perspective OnePerspective TwoPerspective ThreeMany newly created things today defy tradition and ignore history. The best ideas are often based on proven methods and theories.People can live without creativity, but in order to thrive in the fast changing world, one needs to be creative.Creativity has no standard or set definition. It makes more sense for us to focus on other qualities that are productive and accurately defined.官方题(五)10月24日亚太题ChallengePhysical challenge may make you stronger.
