答案
Starbucks Should Leave the Forbidden City
As globalization gears up, cultural conflicts come along. One example could be the issue whether Starbucks should withdraw its outlet from the Forbidden City. Heated debates have arised recently. Many people, especially the younger generation, oppose the suggestion, because people love Starbucks for a coffee, a snack and a place to rest.
But as I see it , it may not be appropriate to have a Starbucks outlet inside the Forbidden City. For one thing, the style of Starbucks does not match that of the Palace Museum. The American chain coffee store is a tycoon in the fast food industry, and seems out of place in a solemn royal palace. For another, the Forbidden City is China’s cultural center, and so is justifiable to be free from solely commercial operations like Starbucks.
Of course, there is nothing wrong with the preference of Starbucks, but one does not have to appreciate it inside the Forbidden City. In my view, an outlet nearby may be a better choice. On the one hand, it is still convenient for people to have a comfortable place to sit, chat, and drink. And on the other hand, it avoids such controversy as spoiling Chinese culture.
解析
写作提示:全球化带动跨文化交际的同时也引发了一些冲突。星巴克故宫店是否应该停业就是其中之一。本题看似对背景知识的要求比较高,但是遇到此类题目,如果考生仔细阅读要求,就能发现写作提纲其实已对事件的背景进行了大致介绍。而题目也并未要求考生讲出事件的来龙去脉,双方的理由都可以源自个人的辨证思考。以赞成星巴克故宫店停业为例,第一段可以介绍全球化大背景下星巴克故宫店引发的争议。第二段可以列举其不适合继续营业的理由,如与皇家风格格格不入、可能让人对中国传统文化产生误解等。第三段可以综合反对的理由,提出建议,如迁出故宫而到附近营业。
