2022年6月25日雅思写作考试已经结束啦，小编搜集整理了本次雅思写作task2：开采偏远地区能源的利弊相关范文，供雅思考生参考。

WRITING TASK 2

You should spend about 40 minutes on this task.

Write about the following topic:

With the increasing demand for energy such as oil and gas, people start to look for their sources in remote and untouched places.

Do the advantages of this development outweigh the disadvantages?

Give reasons for your answer and include any relevant examples from your own knowledge or experience.

Write at least 250 words.

环境类

【题目解析】

题目大意：随着对于石油和天然气等能源的需求不断增加，人们开始去偏远地区寻找这些能源。这种发展的好处是否多于坏处？

【思路分析】这个题目曾经在2014年6月28日以及2009年5月30日出现过，是一道老题目。从难度上来讲，这个题目的论点构思不算很难。

寻找能源的目的肯定是为了解决能源短缺，这就是好处的部分，坏处方面就是对于偏远地区的影响。这里如果想到的是自然环境，那么就可以联想常见的自然环境问题，例如污染，破坏栖息地，破坏生态平衡等；如果联想到了偏远地区还可能有人的聚居地存在，就可以想到破坏当地人生活；这个时候可以顺势补充第二个好处—可以促进这个地区的发展。通过这种思路就可以想到对于自然和人存在的community的好坏影响，然后确定立场。

如果多一些背景知识了解，会发现有人和无人存在的地区，开发能源的情况都是有的，例如在靠近北极地区进行开采（无人），在美国阿拉斯加进行开采（有人）。本文将remote and untouched area作为 “无人”环境，进行构思。

【写作思路】

开头段：改写题目，提供自己的立场，说明认为好处大于坏处。

主体第一段：论述题目现象的好处，说明主要的好处就是保证能源的供应，确保生活质量以及国家各项产业的发展。之后给出具体的一些例子说明人们对于能源的依赖，如果不进行更多的能源开发，那么就会导致价格上升以及进一步的其他社会问题。

主体第二段：论述可能存在的环境问题；开矿或钻井等寻找化石能源的方法以及建立风力发电机和太阳能电池板等可再生能源都会对环境造成破坏，会产生污染，动物栖息地破坏等。尽管如此，这些担忧不能被过度放大，因为国际社会能够意识到这些问题并且采取相应的措施。已经有国家和国际层面的法律以及规章出现，可以使影响在可控范围内。

结尾段：重申个人立场，表明虽然有潜在的环境问题，但是好处更加明显

【参考范文】

The energy consumption has been growing dramatically in the past few decades, and to meet the rising demand, seeking energy sources in places far away from human habitats has become conventional. Despite some environmental repercussions, I believe the benefits of this exploration are more significant.

The major advantage of such practice is to ensure the quality of individuals’ daily life and the development of various industries of nations. Undoubtedly, exploiting resources in these remote areas can expand the available pool of resources and thus tackle the energy problem. After all, every aspect of life and production requires energy, ranging from the electricity it produces to the fuels for vehicles or manufacturing equipment. Should people stop exploring new sources of energy, the coming shortage could drive the price to a high level that both people and companies are unable to afford. What comes next might be more severe problems that could threaten the normal function of society.

However, I understand the environmental concerns raised by some people. The mining or drilling activities for fossil fuels as well as the construction of solar farms or wind turbines could pose a threat to the ecological balance in that area, considering the destruction of animal habitats and the pollution caused by hazardous chemicals involved in the process. Nevertheless, these worries should not be overstated as the international community is fully aware of the potential danger and in turn well prepared with relevant resolutions. There are already regulations and laws restricting reckless exploitation at both national and international levels, meaning that the risk and impacts could be meticulously monitored and kept at an acceptable level.

In conclusion, with appropriate preventive actions, the possible environmental consequences of seeking energy sources in remote areas could be alleviated. Therefore, I am convinced that this practice has more advantages than disadvantages.
