西方教育好还是中方教育好？我的观点是西方教育好。想求关于更多的西方教育。。

我不知道你想求什么。你要求的是资料还是？如果是资料的话你自己可以去网上搜搜的，很多的。我可以根据的你观点给你几个论据:

1.你可以根据中国的应试教育来与西方的开放教育做评比。

2.中国的教育注重书本的知识，而西方教育则更注重实践

3.可根据一些日常人们抨击中国的应试教育的不足来进行答辩与提问。如中国的学习为了考试，西方的则是考试为了学习，中国培养出来的都是高分低能的学生.中国不鼓励学生外出打工，而西方则专门设置了打工这门社会实践的学分，鼓励学生进社会实践，等等.

英语辩论话题（发展经济与保护环境）

However, we have to admit that we are living in a realistic society, and there are too many goals that we're not able to achieve effectively without enough funds, in which, unfortunately, environmental protection is included. Environmental protection & pullution controlling is an undertaking with high requirements for high-tech and top talents. Without these supports, the proccess of one pollution control may not only be effectiveless, but also become the cause of another pollution. In this case, the efforts we have taken for environmental protection would become senseless.

在环境保护已经成为全球最热门话题的今天，不论是国家政府，还是企业以及个人，都已经把环保事业重视起来。然而我们不得不承认，社会和生活是很现实的，没有足够的资金，有太多的事业都很难有效的进行，不幸的是，这其中也包括环保。环保治污是一项非常需要高新技术以及高新人才的事业，如果没有这些，不但治污的效果达不到，而且可能会在治理一项污染的过程中产生另一项污染。这样的话，我们为环保所付出的努力就变得毫无意义了。而对于政府及企业来说，如果想要引进高新技术及人才，资金是必不可少的。因此只有有了钱，我们才能更好的进行环保事业，从而使我们的环境变得更好。

Nowadays, environmental protection has become the hotest topic all around the globe, to which not only the governments, but also enterprises and individuals have payed their great attention. However, we have to admit that we are living in a realistic society, and there are too many goals that we're not able to achieve effectively without enough funds, in which, unfortunately, environmental protection is included. Environmental protection & pullution controlling is an undertaking with high requirements for high-tech and top talents. Without these supports, the proccess of one pollution control may not only be effectiveless, but also become the cause of another pollution. In this case, the efforts we have taken for environmental protection would become senseless. Moreover, it's essential to have enough money for govenments and enterprises to bring in hi-technologies and top talents. As a result, it's necessary to have enough money in order to carry out the undertakings of environmental protection, which is, to make good changes to our environment.

Part-time jobs do more good than harm to the university students.

大学生做兼职利大于弊。

1。耽误学习时间，大部分人不能协调好学习和打工的时间安排。

2。工作之后的劳累分散精力，无心学习

3。容易影响对金钱的态度，使学生形成错误的人生观，过早形成拜金主义

4。社会很复杂，大学生打工容易受骗上当。

5。并不是所有兼职工作都能起到锻炼实践能力的作用，而在校时光非常宝贵，尤其是对于低年级大学生来说，不必急着提高实践能力，不如用宝贵的4年时间多泡泡图书馆，因为打工以后还可以打，但这样接受文化熏陶的机会却不会再有了。

6。如果想提高实践能力，有其他方式，如参加学生会，学校社团，学校组织的公益活动等。在学校的组织下，相对安全，时间安排相对合理，同样可以锻炼自己。

7。如果单纯是为了解决财务问题，有其他更好的办法，如贷款，助学基金，奖学金，申请做校工等。这些方式也需要学生的责任心，为了申请成功，学生会主动提高自身的素质，使自己变得更优秀。

广告利弊（英语辩论论题）

但如果单单有一个好的宣传，而没有好的商品的话，这个公司能长久营业下去吗？相反，即使没有好的宣传，而是有好的商品的话，这个公司就可以长久下去。辉山牛奶就是一个很好的例子。However, if there is a good publicity alone, but not merchandise well, then the company can continue long-term business吗 In contrast, even in the absence of good publicity, but there is good merchandise, then the companies can go a long time. Shan-hui milk is a good example.

An extensively documented effect is the control and vetoing of free information by the advertisers. Any negative information on a company or its products or operations often results in pressures from the company to withdraw such information lines, threatening to cut their ads. This behavior makes the editors of the media self-censor content that might upset their ad payers. The bigger the companies are, the bigger their relation becomes, maximizing control over a single piece of information.

Advertisers may try to minimize information about or from consumer groups, consumer-controlled purchasing initiatives (as joint purchase systems), or consumer-controlled quality information systems.

Another indirect effect of advertising is to modify the nature of the communication media where it is shown. Media that get most of their revenues from publicity try to make their medium a good place for communicating ads before anything else. The clearest example is television, where broadcasters try to make the public stay for a long time in a mental state that encourages spectators not to switch the channel during advertisements. Programs that are low in mental stimulus, require light concentration and are varied are best for long sitting times. These also make for much easier emotional transition to ads, which are occasionally more entertaining than the regular shows. A simple way to understand objectives in television programming is to compare the content of programs paid for and chosen by the viewer with those on channels that get their income mainly from advertisements.

In several books, articles and videos, communication professor Sut Jhally has argued that pervasive commercial advertising, by constantly reinforcing a bogus association between consumption and happiness and by focusing on individual immediate needs, leads to a squandering of resources and stands in the way of a discussion of fundamental societal and long-term needs

男人比女人对社会的贡献大（英语辩论论题）

1.Prejudice against women violates the fundamental principle that all people are created equal.

2.Women should not be treated differently from men since,according to statistics,there is no basic difference between the standards and quality of work performed by men and women who do the same work.

3.This is an unfair world: most of the top position is in society,like company directors,judges,university professors,etc. are occupied by men.

4.This is a male-dominant world.Over centuries men have been training and educating women to consider themselves inferior and to accept their superior position.As a result ,not only men are prejudiced against women,but some women are also prejudiced against themselves because they believe they are really inferior and only fit for household chores.

5. Women should no longer be treated as the inferior sex.They should stand side by side with men and define their role in society,in which they can choose to work outside or stay at home and in which they will have more time to develop their own interests.

6. It is a shame in the modern world to confine women to the home and block their way to the full exploitation of their capacity and potential.

7. Men should take an equal share in housework so as to liberate women from the kitchen.

8. Women should be given an equal chance of education in order to compete with men on an equal footing.

9 It is unreasonable for authorities to refuse to promote able women to important posts just because they have children to bring up.

10. Actually women today have already got as much freedom as they could possibly want.They enjoy the right to vote; They can go to university; they can compete with men in any professional field on equal terms.

死刑是否应该存在 同意死刑的存在

My Idea about capital punishment

In the modern global community, the ideas of liberalism and democracy are widely accepted. People embrace freedom to an extent that has never been achieved throughout history. However, some countries go a little bit too far. The abolishment of capital punishment is just one example. These counties argue that no authority is entitled to deprive individuals of their right to live. Even those who commit felonies such as murder, rape and arson should be put in prison rather than on a guillotine. They believe their practice embodies humanism which goes well beyond the tit-for-tat juridical tradition that is passed down for generations. In my mind, however, death penalty should not be abolished, as long as there is a possibility of grave crimes in the world.

In the Chinese language, there is a proverb that goes like this: A merciful angel frightens no devil.(门神善了鬼不怕). The capital punishment is the last weapon that awes potential criminals. If there were no nuclear bombs, would China have felt at least apparently at ease at the militaristic menace posed by the USSR in early 1960s Perhaps this is not an appropriate analogue, but China is a country which holds one fourths of the world population. Now our country is still not safe enough partly due to lack of policing. If the penalties are loosen, China will be in a mess, with so acute confrontational sentiments between the rich and poor and so uneven distribution of properties. Not only won’t our goals of a better-off society be achieved, but stability, our basis of national development will also be threatened.

I will have to mention the case of Singapore as well. We all know that a year ago an young Australian was executed there for carrying drugs. Singapore was thus widely criticized for its despotism by European and Australian presses. Given that the independence of justice of one nation should be respected if it does not defy international laws, we must know that Singapore is a key port. If the law is not strict enough, will this tiny country enjoy its peace and stability as we constantly admire

You may say that both China and Singapore are oriental countries whose rulers are descendants of thousand-year-long feudal monarchies. We just shift our focus to the most liberal country, the United States. Do Americans say goodbye to death penalty We safely come to a conclusion that it death penalty is not a case of tradition, but an earthy need indeed.

You may also argue that despite the abolishment of capital punishment the EU is still well-organized with no significant rise in crime rate. That is correct. I never deny that EU is safer than the US and China. But I would like to remind you of Milocevic’s death in Hague. Yes, even if he is convicted won’t he be killed at once, but he was left in a small room with no access to basic medical care. He died of heart attack. What a good death. The Europeans remove a pain in the ass without using a knife. Europeans treasure human rights. They tried Milocevic for his genocide of Croats. But note the Rwanda genocide.Which Tony Blair or Jacque Chirac grieved for the victims of Rwanda genocide Where was the EU then I find sheer dual standards. I find typical hypocrisy.

To accomplish humanity we have too many things to do, except the consideration of the abolishment of death penalty. Perhaps this is done one day in the future when China is more democratic and liberal. But now, we must stick to death penalty for the good of the majority of the citizens, not of the criminals.
