大家好!我说过,只要有难度的作文,我会站出来帮大家的.现看到那么多人遭遇"黑色情人", 我就来啦! 5月22日/2月14日的考题为:Some people believe that greed and selfishness has become the basis of modern society, and we should return to the old traditions of family and community then we will have a better life. To what extent do u agree or disagree with the above opinion?

　　这道题的难点在于对the old traditions of family and community 的认识。在中国有一种四代同堂的tradition----人很多，对长者必须绝对地respect or even obey.家有“家规”，管教特多，最长者(male)最有威信，不是凭能力来定地位，而是由年龄来决定。多大程度上同意或不同意这种题应该说是比较灵活的，下面为其中的一种写作思路给大家参考：

　　赞成traditions of family and community对付greed n selfishness有招，因为四代同堂，老大掌门，互助友爱，共产同乐，无“私”可捞，无利可贪。

　　However,“旧社会”不能给我们带来更好的生活。我想举个例来说明。在我山区老家，到如今还有个传统(在考试中就说是old tradition就行了)：妇女不能与男人同桌而食，只能吃leftovers. s e x ual discrimination(性别歧视) 绝对传统。

　　In many parts of the world, a traditional concept of family called four generations living together has been handed down for thousands of years. In old times, the eldest man usually dominated others without any challenge amid the overpopulated home. In comparison with modern society, such a place should be an effective habitat to keep greed and selfishness ,which is considered as born nature of humans, away as a consequence of helping each other and sharing property between family members under the supervision of the most influential man.

　　However, over a thousand-year period those female members suffered extremely tough circumstances of s e x ual discrimination: they were in charge of childcare, household chores, farming--topsoil clearing and planting, you name it. What’s worse, they weren’t allowed to dine with men at the same table---leftovers filled up their bellies. Conversely, in contemporary society, a growing number of females are fighting for more human rights, say, equality to males, and they are gaining ground! How to convince the "fierce female tigers" these traditions are their better destiny? No way!!!

　　A better life can never be expected by only eliminating greed and selfishness; whereas it ought to be defined along with the following qualities: privacy respected, individual development, no s e x ual discrimination and a fair community with equal opportunities. In addition to my viewpoint, an appropriate way of education would probably a sensible solution to minimize the goddamn greed and selfishness in modern society instead of returning to the old society.
