12月3日的雅思大作文考的是政府投资类话题，下面是小编为大家整理收集的关于2016年12月3日雅思真题大作文范文的相关内容，欢迎大家的阅读。
Task：Some countries achieve international sporting success by building specialized facilities to train top athletes instead of providing sports facilities that everyone can use. Do you think it is a positive or negative development?
思路解析：
本年12月首次考试的作文题目是关于为顶级运动员建专门的训练设施，让他们在国际赛场争金夺银，这样做是好还是坏?本题是2014年7月10日原题重现。唐老师在本专栏上期曾提醒大家多注意练习2014年和2013年的写作真题，没想到再次一语成谶。不过，即使没练过，这个题目写起来也还是相当容易的。在解析本题之前，顺便说一句，关于体育设施，还有一个比较常见的问法是：在一个新城市中，是多建体育设施好，还是建购物中心好?
那么，为顶级运动员专门建训练设施，让他们在国际赛场上成功，这个做法好不好呢?如果从肯定的角度，我们可以认为，运动员获得冠军，最直接的好处就是让他们收获奖金，从而改变他们的经济状况。这点是常识，但很多烤鸭可能都想不到，因为我们中国烤鸭一看到冠军，立马想到的是升国旗，奏国歌，其他的好像什么都想不起了。这就是中国烤鸭的思维问题所在：因为是用汉语思维，就不可避免地带上汉语思维的特征，同时因为都是成年人了，汉语思维还往往比较抽象，但问题是多数烤鸭的英语水平不够好，用英语来表达汉语想的那些复杂思想还不能做到游刃有余，于是就霸王硬上弓，结果就弄出来很多汉语式英语，顺带还有很多语法错误，最糟糕的情况就是把雅思考官弄得一脸蒙逼，他就只好给你个低分了。那么，怎么办呢?药方就是让这类考生主动装傻，或者扮嫩，给自己的思维降降等级。雅思6分作文的思维水平，只要达到我们小学3、4年级即可，不需要去讨论那些高深层次的内容，因为你的英语表达水平达不到。各位烤鸭回去看看，你小学3、4年级的汉语作文写的什么，你在雅思考场上就用英语写什么就够了!
好，运动员得冠军，除了改善运动员的经济状况外，还有别的什么好处呢?那我们就稍微想远一点，这些运动员是不是可以成为孩子们的英雄(role model)，从而激发他们去参加运动呢?最后再想多点，这些运动员得冠军，是不是可以激发整个国家的自豪感(national pride)呢?好，总结起来，国家给顶级运动员建训练设施让他们得冠军，就有三个好处：(1)改善他们自己的经济状况;(2)成为孩子们学习的对象;(3)激发国家自豪感。这三点都不抽象，而且层层推进，从个人到他人，最后到国家，层次感有了，逻辑也有了。雅思写作思维就是这么简单，就是这么有乐趣!(特别提示：如果你写不了国家自豪感这个层次，写前两点也足够。写作的核心标准是写正确没有，写明白没有，而不是一定要写到哪几个点!那是国内政治课老师的毛病!)
然而，如果只考虑顶级运动员得冠军的好处，却不考虑大众体育设施的建设，这无疑又是极端了。如果一个国家大多数群众没有地方锻炼身体，你得再多的国际冠军也是然并卵。你的钱有了，role model 也有了，国家自豪感也有了，可是当你豪情万丈地出门准备锻炼身体，却发现举目四望无处可去，你不回家骂娘才怪!因此，结论很简单：政府需要给顶级运动员建特殊训练设施，但更需要给普通民众提供体育锻炼设施，但是如果政府预算有限，不能两者兼顾时，我宁愿政府先投资大众体育设施，因此只有建立在大众体育基础上的冠军才能真正成为大众的role model，才能真正给我们带来国家自豪感!
Sample answer：
Some countries today invest huge amount of money on specialized facilities for the training of their top athletes to achieve sporting success internationally. I think this investment is rewarding as long as it is not at the expenses of the sports facilities for the public.
The benefits of athletes winning on international sports arena such as Olympic Games or the World Cup Championship are multiple. For the athletes, who often come from economically underprivileged families, a champion can save them from their financial embarrassment, not just for themselves, but for the entire families as well. An Olympic champion, furthermore, can become a national hero and serve as the role model for numerous young people, who will try to be as hard-working, self-disciplined, and persistent as the champion. Most importantly, a hard-won champion title can even bring pride to the entire nation and help the nation to move on, especially in hard times.
However, more international champions should not become the excuse to cut down on the investment on the public sports facilities. A country without adequate sports facilities for the general public can never be truly encouraged no matter how many world champions it boasts. You will understand the frustration when you put on your sports shirt and go out, spurred by the perfect performance of an athlete you love in an important game, only to find that all available gyms and stadiums are crowded, leaving you nowhere to go.
To conclude, international sporting success is necessary, which explains why a country ought to put money into specialized facilities to train its top athletes. However, if the government has to make a choice between the world champions and the public sports facilities, I will support the second one. To my mind, only when the general mass of people enjoy the adequate sports facilities will they be encouraged and motivated by their world champions.
