Some people think that by paying taxes they have contributed enough to their society. Others think there are other responsibilities besides paying taxes. Discuss both views and give your opinion.

答案
I believe that the individual members of society have more responsibilities than simply paying their taxes. In this essay, I shall outline the key ones.
Paying taxes is certainly a responsibility for citizens. It is necessary for some services to be provided by governments (e.g. national defence). Other services may be provided by governments depending on their (and their citizens’) wishes (e.g. education and a health service). It can be argued that this is all people need to do regarding their social responsibilities. After all, the government can now use the money as necessary. However, I think this is not the only responsibility citizens have.
Many people argue that another responsibility citizens have is to obey the law. Of course, there may be situations where some people might find breaking the law to be necessary, but many laws are useful, e.g. ones which are against violent behaviour or theft. If the majority of people start breaking these kinds of laws, society quickly collapses into chaos.
A lot of people also argue that it is necessary for citizens to follow other, unwritten, laws or customs in their everyday lives. Whilst it is not against the law to be rude to other people, being polite does help society to function in a better way, making it easier to communicate with others and get things done. For example, shopping might not be so easy if customers and sales staff were generally rude to each other.
In summary, I think that there are other responsibilities that people have to society, aside from a financial contribution in the form of taxes. Whilst these contributions may not be financial, they help society to function.
