When new towns are planned, it is important to build more public parks or sports facilities than shopping centres for people to spend their free time.

选项
答案 Over the past few decades, new towns have mushroomed around the world, in particular in developing countries. It is argued that, when new towns are planned, public parks or sports facilities are more helpful for citizens to kill their spare time than are shopping centres. I totally agree with this statement.
The primary reason in my favour is that recreational areas or sports equipment promises regular exercise, which is good for health. As we all know, the sedentary working style gives rise to various health problems and lack of exercise aggravates the situation. With more public parks or sports facilities available, those living nearby will find ideal ways to spend their free time, for example, by taking a stroll in the parks or doing athletic activities such as swimming and playing badminton. Obviously, improving physical health better suits the needs of modern people.
Another argument to support my view is that compared with shopping malls, parks and sports facilities are more frequently used and better means for people to relax. Under the pressure of intensive work, parents often have to work overtime, which reduces the time they spend with their children. By taking their children out for fresh air or playing sports with them, parents will definitely develop closer relationship with their children. In this sense, frequent visits to parks or regular use of sports equipment strengthens family ties, especially the one between parents and children.
Advocates of shopping malls may hold that shopping centres make it easier for shoppers to buy the stuff they need. However, online shopping is so convenient for people to buy almost whatever they can think of, thus making shopping centres in towns less desirable.
In conclusion, I opt for public parks and sports facilities since they not only enable people to improve their health, but also allow them to accompany their family members.
解析 To what extent do you agree or disagree?是雅思写作中常见的一种题型。针对这种题型基本上可以用一边倒的结构，这样更容易突出自己的观点。
题目的实质是在问做城市规划时，建公园或体育设施(public parks or sports facilities)重要，还是建购物中心(shopping centres)重要。考生可以选择其中一方。选择公园或体育设施的常见理由包括：方便居民休闲运动，有利于身心健康；逛公园有利于减压，逃离城市喧闹；公园有利于绿化等等。选择购物中心的常见理由包括：方便居民购物；可帮助打发时间，逛商场也是许多人(尤其是女孩)的放松方式；购物中心也可以提供其他休闲娱乐，如看电影，喝咖啡等。
范文选择支持建公园或体育设施，行文思路大致如下：
   1．介绍背景、引出话题并阐明自己观点：完全同意多建公园或体育设施。
   2．提出支持自己观点的首个理由：促进身体健康。更适合现代人需要。
   3．提出支持自己观点的第二个理由：加强亲子关系。
   4．让步论述，对支持购物中心的观点加以反驳。
   5．重申自己的观点。
