本题改编自老GRE的ISSUE35"No matter what the situation, it is more harmful to compromise one's beliefs than to adhere to them"。题目可以从两个角度来进行阐述,一是“是否应该坚持信仰”,二是“放弃信仰是否比坚持信仰更糟糕”。观点一定要明确,并且从坚持或放弃信仰的条件,优缺点等角度进行思考。
1. 什么是信仰?你有什么信仰?描述一个自己或者别人的信仰。
回答:
信仰,是指对圣贤的主张、主义、或对神的信服和尊崇、对鬼、妖、魔或天然气象的恐惧,并把它奉为自己的行为准则。我信仰的是自由,平等的观点。
2. 坚持信仰有什么好处?有什么缺点?请分别举例说明。
回答:
坚持自己的信仰,能够让人在面对困难的时候不动摇,有一个持久的动力能够坚持做一件事。比如说缅甸的昂山素季就始终坚持自己的民主平等的观念,即使被缅甸政府长时间的关押,依然坚持着自己的信仰。但是也有一些时候,对一些信仰的坚持会让人非常偏执,不妥协的态度。比如说处女情结的信仰,在中国,很多人坚信娶一个处女能够带来好运。但是随着思想的开放,这样的观点越来越被人所摒弃。
3. 哪些因素会导致人们放弃信仰?这样做有什么好处?有什么缺点?请分别举例说明。
回答:
外部因素,让人的一些东西改变。比如说一些朝鲜人曾经是朝鲜社会的坚定支持者,但是当他们有机会接触到韩国,日本这样民主发达的社会后,成为了拖北者,这样的放弃了信仰是正确的。比如说,有一些曾经信仰自由民主的人,因为被政府收买,反而成为了政府的支持者,一些科学家为了政府放弃了自己对科学的信仰,对一些工程问题作出错误的判断。
4. 在什么条件下,人们应该坚持信仰?为什么?请举例说明。
