摘要：朗阁名师分享雅思作文关于监狱类话题解题思路

雅思考生拿到作文题目都想知道究竟哪种写作方式比较容易拿到分，有没有写作的范本以供学习呢？为此，朗阁的名师为此特意撰写了这篇文章，希望对学生们有所帮助。
Question: In most countries, prison is an effective solution to the problem of crime. Some people think it is a more effective solution to provide education for those who violate the law. To what extent do you agree or disagree?

解读：这个题目是问在大多数国家，监狱是一种更有效的解决犯罪的方法。有些人认为更有效的方法是向那些违反法律的人提供教育，问同意还是不同意。这个题目的难点在于如何区分两个对立面。其中一个是监狱，这个很多考生都会非常容易理解。而另一个则是提供教育。罪犯不送进监狱，而是去接受教育，这个可能很多人还无法完全的理解。因为，目前在大多数国家，基本上都是监狱的形式来管理罪犯，而并没有所谓的提供教育来解决罪犯的问题。所以，可能对于考生来说比较有难度，并不是非常容易地回答。这里考生需要明确的是，进行教育的形式和目的是什么。如果考生本身确实觉得教育方面的观点比较难以进行写作，可以考虑去从监狱的坏处的角度来写作。这样一来，就可以更好地将这个话题展开讨论。

1st argument:
The ultimate purpose of a prison system is to serve as a deterrent force against the potential wrongdoers by setting out a standard set of guidelines for the public to adhere to/comply with. Without the adequate legal system, there is a good chance that many who harbor ulterior motives may act beyond the moral and legal boundaries and thus hurt, either intentionally or unintentionally, those innocent victims. It is by no means an overstatement that the crime rate is negatively correlated with the strictness of the law enforcement. Therefore, to curb crime rate in the future, the prison still appears the ideal option of treating the criminals.

2nd argument:
Locking up prisoners behind the bars is also intended to restrict their freedom and minimize their contact with the public. If the criminals were allowed to continue to wander around in the city streets, more innocent people would be hurt and victimized. Thus, putting prisoners in jail can spare the public from the greater risks to which they would have otherwise been exposed.

3rd argument:
The majority of crimes can be attributed to the greed for financial power or the desire to elevate social status. It is understandable that those undereducated ones could hardly land a decent job amidst increasingly fierce competition and thus are forced to resort to illegal activities to scrape a basic living. Even if they are sent to prison to be rehabilitated, they are still confronted with the identical set of issues upon release. Worse yet, their criminal records, which would accompany them forever, would scare away many potential employers. Such strong sense of discrimination and social prejudice against ex-convicts might push them back to the life as criminals again.

思路：
这篇文章主要所支持的方向还是以监狱为主。首先，第一个方面是，监狱体制的最终目的是通过法律标准的实施，让公众有一个可以遵守的一套标准，从而对于大量的潜在的罪犯起到一个很好的抑制的作用。因为，如果没有相应的法律体制的话，很有可能很多有不良动机的人的行为会超越法律和道德的边界，从而故意的或者是无意的伤害到那些无辜的受害者。毫无疑问，法律实施的严格程度与犯罪率是成反比的。所以，在未来如果要抑制犯罪率的话，最好的方式依然是通过监狱。其次，把罪犯关押起来能够很好地限制他们的自由，并且减少他们与大众的接触。如果罪犯依然可以在城市街道游荡，更多无辜的人会受到伤害，并且因此成为受害者。所以，把罪犯关进监狱可以保护公众的安全，减少罪犯对他们所造成的威胁。
反过来，大多数的犯罪行为可以归结于对财富的贪婪或者是对社会地位的提升。不难理解的是，那些没有接受过良好教育的人在如此激烈的竞争环境下，很难找到一份不错的工作。因此，他们被迫要去从事一些非法的行为去维持基本的生计。即使说他们被送进监狱去接受改造，他们在释放的时候仍然会面临同样的问题。更糟糕的是，他们的犯罪记录将会伴随他们一生。这样一来，他们会把很多潜在的雇主吓跑掉。这样的一种强烈歧视和社会偏见会让这些有前科的人再次走向犯罪的道路。
