答案                                            Do We Protect Animals?
       With the extinction of some rare animals, many people come to realize the importance of animal protection. As a result, special funds and organizations have been established to fulfill this purpose. However, some people are skeptical about such a costly practice, for they believe human beings are still confronted with countless problems of their own, and it is due time to spend time and money on mankind rather than on other creatures. In my opinion, protecting wild animals is not only the duty of human being, but also of great benefits to ecological system as a whole.
      To start with, it is us human beings who are chiefly responsible for wild animal extinction and thus it is our responsibility to protect them. We destroy millions of acres of tropical forests, leaving the animals with no place to live in. We contaminate water in rivers and lakes, poisoning most of the animals there. We even directly kill animals to satisfy our appetite or to make profit out of their furs, etc. What we do results in great disasters in the animal kingdom; for instance, we can only see the dodo in pictures now. Moreover, the dying-out of one animal species means one unrecoverable missing link in the ecological balance, which will then have bad effects on our human race. Ecologists say that the day when only people exist on earth is the end of the world. Therefore, protecting animals, we are protecting ourselves. It is never a waste of time and energy to care for our intimate friends on the earth.
      In conclusion, I commit to the notion that the survival of animals is of monumental importance to human society and we should spare no effort to concern about those living creatures that constitute a major part of the world.

解析   一些人认为人类不应该花大量的时间和金钱保护野生动物,而应该关注人类自身的发展。题目要求考生就“我们要保护动物吗?”给出自己的观点并进行论证,典型的观点论证型文章。
   分析提纲,可知文章在结构上应该是:第一部分给出背景知识并提出自己对此问题的看法;第二部分从两个方面论证自己的观点;第三段进行总结,重申自己的观点。参见MODELTEST ONE命题作文的结构模版。
