问题     Most countries want to improve their standard of living through economic development, while others think social values are lost as a result. Do you think the advantages of economic development outweigh the disadvantages?
选项
答案 People’s living standards are largely improved due to economic development. However, arguing that social values are lost as a result, some contend that the disadvantages of economic development outweigh the advantages. I strongly disagree and will outline both views in my essay. Economic development brings about considerably significant advantages. Generally speaking, people’s livelihood is substantially improved. Also, the domains of politics, culture and technology derive observable benefit from economic progress. Therefore, more and more people are living at a higher standard with regard to both material and spiritual aspects. These advantages are being enjoyed by us and should not be ignored. Some argue that loss of social values means our society is deteriorating. However, I would say that social values keep changing to adapt to society. For instance, years ago students were encouraged to race into a burning forest to put out wildfires. Nowadays, students are educated to ask for help from others in such cases. The change in social value gives priority to life instead of property. Life should be undeniably respected in this case. As a result, social values should be pondered as time passes. In addition, not all social values are actually shared by all people. As the saying goes, "one man’s meat is another’s poison." The loss of or change in social values is bound to be accepted with delight by some. A loss of social values is not necessarily a bad thing, as new social values will come into being along with economic development. More importantly, the advantages of economic development outweigh the disadvantages.
