本题改编自老GRE的ISSUE190"As long as people in a society are hungry or out of work or lack the basic skills needed to survive, the use of public resources to support the arts is inappropriate -- and, perhaps, even cruel -- when one considers all the potential uses of such money"。题目讨论公共资源支持艺术发展的合理性问题,题目认为相对于艺术,资金更应当用于解决社会基本问题(饥饿、失业)。在分析的过程中,可以从社会基本问题和艺术发展各自的重要性以及忽视之后可能带来的直接和间接后果、资金支持在二者发展之中的必要性以及效率效果等方面展开思考。对于此题这种对比型的题目,需要注意不应孤立得去说二者各自的利弊,而是应当将二者放在一起通过对比、类比等方法将差异展现出来,这样才能说明哪个更好。
1. 对于社会基础问题以及艺术发展,现在各国的投资支持态度是如何的?请描述具体某国家的情况,并评价其是否合理以及原因。
回答: 中国:社会基础问题很多 需要的资金很大 现在中国解决了一些社会基础问题 如社会保险 医疗保险 失业保险 养老保险 住房公积金等 但这些远远不够 还需要很多的资金 来解决更多的问题 艺术发展:建了一些 艺术馆 画廊 还有很多艺术节 中国的艺术发展 属于刚刚起步阶段 政府投入了一些资金 但要培养起老百姓的欣赏艺术习惯 还有很长一段路要走 这就需要政府进一步投资。
2. 社会基础问题(饥饿、失业)得不到解决会对社会产生哪些不良影响?请举例并简述。
回答: 饥饿得不到解决 人们的身体素质就会下降 更甚者 就会出现饿死人的事情发生 这对于任何一个社会都是悲剧 失业问题 也一样 美国失业问题一直很严重 居高不下 而迟迟得不到解决 所以就爆发了占领华尔街运动 阶级之战 阻塞交通 在公园里盘踞长达数月 与防暴警察对立 造成社会动荡。
3. 在社会基础问题解决之前是否其他任何投资行为都是不合适的?能否因为社会基础未得到解决就不去用公共资源支持艺术?请解释其中的原因。
回答: 不是 更不是 在社会基础问题未得到解决之前 可以适当的投资 艺术 因为 即使贫穷 人们也有对精神生活的追求 也会对美好事物有向往 这就是艺术存在的价值。
4. 如果一个国家专注于改善其社会基础而忽视了艺术发展,该国的发展会出现哪些问题?请举例并简述。
回答: 就像今天的中国 物质生活水平 明显提高 而与此同时 精神文化生活 荒芜的就像一片沙漠 几乎什么也没有 偶尔 有一个人 讲孔子 讲的全是鸡零狗碎 可见精神家园的荒废成了什么样子 而且更可怕的是 软乎乎的幸福主义 生活好了 人的手里有钱了 就已忘记了一些更为重要的东西 精神上的强大 更为重要。
5. 社会基础问题和艺术二者之间存在哪些相互影响?请举例并简述。
回答: 有时两者会相互促进 英国的音乐产业极其繁荣 2012伦敦奥运会闭幕式上 的演出震惊了世界 人们沉浸在一个巨大的Party 中 享受音乐的美好 而音乐产业 又可以带来可观的经济收入 创造许多就业岗位 降低失业率 使一部人的生活有了保障。

   Coincidental with the need of art increasing is the development of the society. I think that nations should offer appropriate government funding for the arts when significant numbers of their citizens are hungry or unemployed.     If social basement questions-such as, hungry and unemployment-can not be solved, they have bad effects on the society. Hunger is the prime example of these problems. The hungry problem can lead to the decreasing of human body mechanism, even death. It is tragedy for any a society. Unemployment is also a problem. The unemployment rate in the United States is very high and this problem can not be solved for a long time. So the movement "Controlling the Wall Street" broke out. It makes the class war start and traffic jam. The protesters live in the park for several months and stand the opposition of the police. All these things make the society unstable. Before the social basement questions are solved, not any investment is not suitable. And it is not because the social basement questions are not solved so that nation does not use the public resource to support the art. The nation could invest into art appropriately. Because even if people are very poor they also have the pursuit to the spiritual life and good world. This is the value of the art existing. If one nature focus on improving the social basement and ignore the development of the art, the development of this nation could have some questions. Just like China now, the level of material life improves obviously, but the spiritual culture life is like a desert, which almost has nothing. Sometimes, one woman tells the Kongzi , but the speech is all about the life details. From this view, the spiritual homeland is too vacant. Furthermore, many persons have money and forget the strong spirit is really strong.     The social basement question and the act can interact positively for each other. The British music area provides a case for this. British music area booms. On the closing of London Olympic game, it is a super music party and makes people enjoy the sea of music. The music area can bring good economic income and create many job opportunities as well as decrease the unemployment rate and let some people's life have safeguard.     Above all, I think that nations should offer appropriate government funding for the arts when significant numbers of their citizens are hungry or unemployed.
