  2019年8月24日雅思大作文題目：誰來資助醫學研究?

  Research into new types of medicine and treatments are essential for improving health and dealing with diseases. Who do you think should fund these researches: private companies, individuals or governments?

  解析&審題

  本題問：醫學研究需要經費，那么這個經費應該誰來出：私立公司、個人還是政府?

  這個題顯然不適合用“一邊倒”模式，即在私立公司、個人和政府間做出一個絕對的選擇，因為我們知道：有些醫學研究是企業和個人主導的(主要是利潤驅動)，而有些研究則是政府主導的(主要是公共健康驅動)，而無論是利潤驅動還是公共利益驅動，醫學研究都有利于人類更好地生活。

  因此，本題的基本思路就是分類討論：不同類型的醫學研究需要不同的經費來源。

  以下請看唐老師的高分范文。

  老師筆記

  01

  Modern medical advances have helped create new types of medicine and treatment for diseases, and today people can enjoy longer and healthier lives. This has been made possible mainly by decades of huge investment in medical research funded by industry, individuals, and governments.

  現代醫學的進步幫助創造了治療疾病的新藥和治療方法，今天人們可以享受更長和更健康的生命，這主要是因為數十年由行業、個人和政府資助的醫學研究而取得的。

  解析

  (1) 本段先引出新藥和新治療方式這個話題，然后提出觀點：醫學上的進展與行業、個人和政府都有關系。

  (2) Medical advances 醫學進展

  (3) Treatment 治療(方式)

  (4) Decades 數十年

  02

  On the one hand, many medical studies are funded by pharmaceutical companies directly and individuals indirectly. To begin with, companies need to increase the sales of newly developed drugs or treatments in order to generate adequateprofits. So, it would be in their best interest to directly finance research that favors their corporate goals. That is exactly why industry-funded clinical trials have risen sharply in recent years. Indirectly, individuals support medical science every day through taxes they pay as well as products and services they purchase from companies. For example, something as simple as buying a bottle of aspirin may help foot the bill for medical research.

  一方面，許多醫學研究是由制藥公司直接資助和個人間接資助的。首先，公司需要增加新開發的藥物和治療方式的銷售，以產生足夠的利潤。因此，直接資助有利于實現公司目標的研究符合他們的最佳利益。這正是由行業資助的臨床試驗最近幾年急劇上升的原因。間接而言，個人每天都通過納稅以及從公司購買產品和服務來支持醫學科學。例如，買一瓶阿司匹林看起來很簡單，但可能有助于支付醫學研究的費用。

  解析

  (1) 本段論述私人公司為了利潤可能直接資助醫學研究，個人通過購買醫療服務也在間接支持醫學研究。

  (2) Pharmaceutical company 制藥公司

  (3) Newly-developed 新開發的

  (4) Generate profits 產生利潤

  (5) In one’s interest 符合某人的利益

  (6) Foot the bill for... 為......買單

  03

  On the other hand, government’s involvement in financing medical research, like any scientific research, is essential. While some say that private funding will perhaps ensure enough progress without government funding, a majority of people believe that government investment should play an important role in finding ways of preventing and treating human diseases such as cancer and diabetes, with the objective of improving public health. The importance of government investment is that public funding is non-commercial, which means that research is independent and much less susceptible to profit-oriented bias. So government investment is extremely crucial, especially in fields where private companies or individuals are not willing to invest.

  另一方面，政府參與資助醫學研究，就像任何科學研究一樣，是必不可少的。雖然有些人說，沒有政府資助，私人資助也能確保取得足夠的進展，但大多數人認為，為了提高公眾健康，政府投資應發揮重要作用，以尋找預防和治療人類疾病，如癌癥和糖尿病。政府投資的重要性在于，公共資金是非商業的，這意味著研究是獨立的，利潤驅動的選擇性對其影響要小得多。因此，政府投資是極其重要的，特別是在私人公司或個人不愿意投資的領域。

  解析

  (1) 本段討論政府投資的重要性。

  (2) Involvement 參與;涉及

  (3) Ensure 確保

  (4) A majority of 多數的

  (5) Non-commercial 非商業性的

  (6) Be susceptible to... 容易受到......影響的

  04

  From a financial perspective, private companies, individual consumers, and government departments are likely a mix of sources of funding for medical research. The increased human longevity and better health depend upon financial assistance from various sources for the innovation of new types of medicine and treatment.

  從經費的角度來看，私人公司、個人消費者和政府部門合在一起，可能是醫療研究的資金來源。人類壽命的延長和健康取決于各種來源的經費援助，以創新新型藥物和治療方式。

  解析

  (1) 總結前文的主要觀點，并提出各種渠道的資金來源都可用于醫學研究。

  (2) Mix 混合

  (3) Longevity 壽命;長壽

  (4) Financial assistance 資金支持

  (5) Innovation 革新;創新
