背景介紹:
You might have found that more and more TV plays concerning the Anti-Japanese War (1937~1945) have appeared on the screen on condition that you still prefer to watch TV, though. What’s interesting is that the heroes and heroines in these plays fighting against the enemies seem to become stronger and stronger with more and more unbelievable killing skills that you cannot have imagined. In short, defending our motherland against Japan’s invasion looks like as easy as a piece of cake as shown in these plays. Besides, in order to attract more audience’s attention, many beautiful actresses and handsome actors are chosen to star in these plays. Is it really necessary? I wonder whether as far as the real history of the war is concerned, our respected fighters are all good-looking or only good-looking soldiers can defeat the enemies. If so, what do these TV plays aim to? Do they need the audience to remember theses famous actors and actresses? Then, what about the real history of the war?
In a word, the TV plays (not to mention the films) of the Anti-Japanese War are on the track of becoming entertaining, betraying the real history.
話(huà)題:
You can choose one of the following items as the topic for your writing—
1) Do you often watch TV now? If yes, what kind (or kinds) of programs do you prefer? If not, why?
2) As for the aforementioned TV plays concerning the Anti-Japanese War as well as the phenomenon of their becoming entertaining, what do you think?
3) If you are the screenwriter or the director, in your eyes, what the TV plays (or films) about wars are really like? And from what angles can you represent the real history of wars?
范例1:
As a matter of fact, I have watched TV less and less. Even if I watch TV, I prefer to focus on the domestic and international news exclusive of plays relating to wars.
Compared with these boring plays, I am more in favor of the related documentaries telling the real history of wars. These documentaries are more meaningful for they can reproduce the actual situation of different wars in man’s history as real as possible. Needless to say, these kinds of documentaries can play a more important and valuable role in ideological education.
What we must remember is the history and those contributing to the liberation of our country rather than what are exaggerated in the commercial TV and film works, which are purposeful to entertain us and to make money from us.
范例2:
Nowadays more and more anti-Japanese TV dramas have been prevalent among people’s life. To some degree, those TV dramas tell a kind of patriotic mood. In my mind, we should express our patriotic mood intelligently instead of blindly doing something anti-Japanese. However, some so-called anti-Japanese TV dramas even stretch the truth to arouse an echo among the public. Granted, we can’t forget the disgraceful history, but I also hold the idea that the patriotic mood should not become the reason to make such TV dramas for entertainment. History is serious. Re-creating the path of toil by making TV dramas may help us remember the history and hand down the spirit of great value, while instigating the anti-Japanese mood will harm our compatriots.
To conclude, I expect more anti-Japanese TV dramas which express the idea of rational patriotic mood
