本题讨论对个人行为负责相关的问题,题目认为个人行为并非是自己可以决定的,更多得是被外界左右。本题改编自老GRE的ISSUE93"The concept of 'individual responsibility' is a necessary fiction. Although societies must hold individuals accountable for their own actions, people's behavior is largely determined by forces not of their own making",和老GRE的ISSUE156"Choice is an illusion. In reality, our lives are controlled by the society in which we live"有互通之处。在分析的过程中,可以从个人责任的意义以及是否必要,影响个人行为的因素,外界对个人行为的影响方面和具体形式、程度等方面展开思考。
1. 如果不存在“个人责任”这个概念,人们的学习、工作、生活以及整个社会的发展都会出现哪些问题?请举例并简述。
回答: 如果不存在“个人责任”,会导致人们在学习工作生活中无失去约束,从而导致不能很好地完成学习工作生活,并因此而影响社会发展。 例如:如果没有个人责任,那么在工作中如果犯了个人错误就不会受到惩罚,这会纵容犯错误,使得工作不能很好地完成。 详细来说,例如汽车工厂的工人造零件,如果在制造过程中疏忽大意,导致汽车发生车祸,却仍然不受到惩罚,可能会助长疏忽大意之风,从而导致车祸越来越多。
2. 让个人为自己的行为负责对于社会有哪些好处?请举例并简述。
回答: 个人对自己的行为负责,会使个人的工作与生活变得更符合整个社会团体的利益,从而有利于社会的团结与发展。 例如,当每个司机都为自己的行为负责,从而使得自己的驾驶过程符合交通规则,那车祸的发生肯定大幅减少。因而车祸导致的纠纷也会大幅减少。
3. 人们的行为都受到哪些因素的影响?请举例并简述。(可从内因、外因两方面分别考虑)
回答: 内因:自身的欲望,愿望,能力,经历,教育。一个人如果没有食欲与吃饭的愿望,他不会去吃饭。一个人没有驾驶技能,他不能去开车。 外因:环境影响,别人的要求,客观限制。如果周围没有饭吃,一个人不能去吃饭。如果周围的人都在读大学,那一个人辍学需要更多的勇气。如果他的家人要求他读大学,那他可能会听从家人的要求。如果学校招生名额已满从而不录取他,那他不能去读书。
4. 外界因素在哪些情况下以何种方式影响着人们的行为?请举例并简述。
回答: 外界因素可以以命令、心理暗示、条件限制等方式影响一个人的行为。如领导命令你完成工作;周围的人暗示你应该注意形象;买房子发现钱不够等等。
5. 人们是否可以不顾外界环境的影响而进行自己的选择?如果可以,请举例;如果不可以,请解释原因。
回答: 在一定程度上是可以的。比如领导命令你完成工作时,你可以选择完成工作获得嘉奖,也可以选择不完成工作被开除。主观能动性还是在你的手上的。但是不能无限制地进行自己的选择。换言之,外界环境影响给你选项,选择哪一项是你自己的任务。

  Currently, people have more and more power from technique's advance, leading people think of the question of that whether people's behavior is determined by force from outside world or inside. In my point of view, outside force is more important than inside force, because the force of outside can affect people from many aspects.
  Firstly, from a macroscopic view, one outside factor, the history of one's life, is a determinant factor of his or her behavior. All things one can or will do is under the rule of history principles. For example, before language was envolved, one cannot speak to another; before cellphone was invented, a wife never expected to hear her husband's voice who was travel to another city when she was just sitting in home; it is after the invention of network can one imagine news from other side of the globe can be heard at the moment it happens. Everyone of us can do things when history allows you do.
   Secondly, when we consider of people's daily life, we cannot deny the conclusion that outside reasons have much more force than factors from one's inside. The outside factors affect people's behavior mainly from three aspects: objective restrictions, orders or demands from others, and the environments. When one hungry, he cannot fill himself or herself with food if there is no food, that is an objective restriction,it has a rigid effect to people's behavior. Orders and demands from others always govern people via power of the society. You can resist it, but you must pay for it. For example, one can resist the demand from his or her boss only if he or she can accept the price of lost the job. The environment, however, is an unforbidable,but also effective power. The allusions, the compliments, the mockeries, and so forch, could have so much effection on people's action. For instance, if one student leave in a place where all his or her neighbors have a degree of Ph.D, he or she will face more balks when making the decision of quit from university. Meanwhile, when he or she leaved in a place full with millionaire, he will feel pressure and try hard to earn more money.
   I concede that personal responsibility has important effect on one's behavior. Actually, if no people in the society has personal responsibility, the world would be a mess: drivers would not follow the rules and car crashes increasing fast; workers would not reduce their mistakes and products have awful qualities...However, the personal responsibility can play its role only if the outside force allow it to do. People who never learned driving is not able to drive on road, even if he or she totally ready to obey all the traffic rules.
   Based on reasons listed above, I believe we can safely conclude that the forces from outside have more influences on people's behavior than inside force of people. People can adjust their action only in the bound setted by outside force.
