雅思寫作範文：
對幸福的追求一直都是人類世世代代的夢想，儘管人類一直困惑於幸福的真諦。幸福是什麼?幸福和經濟的成功有密切聯絡嗎?個人經濟上的成功能夠直接帶來幸福嗎?就個人而言，我不認為經濟上的成功是人類幸福的唯一前提。
The pursuit of happiness has long been the dream of generations of human beings. They have always been puzzled Get Word ("puzzled"); by the essence of happiness. What is happiness? Is it closely related to one’s economic success? Will one’s financial success lead to happiness directly? Personally Get Word ("Personally");, I don’t agree that one’s economic success is the only prerequisite of one’s happiness in life.
幸福有很多種。俗話說得好，“一個人的美食可能是另一個人的毒藥”。幸福可能意味著成為一個成功的受人尊敬的領袖，或是一份穩定舒適的大型跨國公司的工作，又或是市區的大房子、一套漂亮的傢俱等等。然而，幸福也可以是一個和諧平靜的家庭，或是一個體貼熱情的朋友，或者只是一個微笑、一個手勢、一個暗示。事實上，幸福可以是你能夠想到的任何事情。至少，我們可以有兩種幸福：精神幸福和物質幸福。
Happiness may fall into different categories Get Word ("categories");. An old saying goes like this: “One man’s meat is another man’s poison”. Happiness may mean being a successful and respected leader of a company, or a stable and comfortable job in a large international company, or a big flat downtown, a fantastic set of furniture, etc. However, happiness can also be a harmonious and peaceful family, or a hospitable and considerate friend, or just a smile, a gesture, a hint. In fact, happiness may be composed of anything you could ever think of. At least, we may have two types of happiness: [wv]spiritualGetWord("hospitable and considerate friend, or just a smile, a gesture, a hint. In fact, happiness may be composed of anything you could ever think of. At least, we may have two types of happiness: [wv]spiritual"); happiness and materialistic happiness.
一方面，一個人的物質幸福依賴於經濟上的成功，儘管不是完全依賴。沒有穩定的經濟後盾，很難想象如何過上輕鬆簡單的生活，更不用說富庶奢侈的生活了。如果買不起房子、車，甚至是一本書，任何人提到這種生活都會害怕。當然，有一些人只要基本的生活需求得到滿足就可以立刻感到很幸福。但是我們仍然必須承認，這些人也需要某種意義上的經濟成功。
One’s materialistic happiness is dependant on one’s economic success, though not completely. Without a strong and steady economic background, one could never imagine an easy and simple life, let alone an affluent and luxurious one. If you aren’t able to afford a house, a car, or even a book, anybody would be horrified at the mere mention of this kind of life. Definitely, some people will feel happy right away if their basic demands for life are satisfied. However, we have to admit that these people still need to be successful materialisticallyGetWord("materialistically"); to some degree.
另一方面，個人經濟上的成功不見得能帶來精神層面的幸福。眾所周知，金錢不能帶來一切，甚至有人說金錢是萬惡之源。經濟上的成功可能就是建立在犧牲時間、健康和愛情的基礎之上，而這三件事情是個人精神層面幸福的基本要素。我們對於這個畫面並不陌生：一位職場成功的男士帶著一顆破碎的心獨自品味孤獨。
On the other hand, one’s success in economy may not necessarily lead to one’s spiritual happiness. As we all know, money doesn’t get you everything and some even say that money is the root of all evilsGetWord("evils");. One’s financial success may be built on the sacrifice of time, health and love, which are the three most essential elements of spiritual happiness. All of us are not new to this picture: a successful business man tasting loneliness alone with a broken heart.
以我的觀點，經濟上的成功只是幸福的'一個重要因素，但絕對不是唯一因素。儘管我們每一個人對於幸福有完全不同的理解，要幸福就要精神上和物質上都能得到滿足。
In my point of view, one’s economic success is only one of the key factors of happiness, but never the only one. To be happy, one needs to be both spiritually and materially satisfied Get Word ("satisfied"); though each of us may have a totally different picture of happiness.
Passage Twointernational tourism
Nowadays, international tourism is the biggest industry in the world. Unfortunately, international tourism creates tension rather than understanding between people from different cultures. To what extent do you agree or disagree?
International tourism is booming: millions of tourists go to other countries to explore the outside world. Tourism enhances the mutual understanding between the local people and tourists. Some people hold opposite opinions. They think that international tourism causes tension rather than promoting understanding between people from different cultures.
The people holding the latter view suppose that tourists are likely to offend the local people because of the lack of knowledge of the local customs, which differ from their own. Moreover, tourism inevitably harms the natural resources and the cultural legacy, which may lead to the resentment of the local people.
However, I can hardly assent to this idea: the above mentioned rarely happens. In my opinion, international tourism does encourage the understanding between people from different countries. For one thing, without going to see for themselves, people may never know what other countries are really like and thus can be misled by hearsay or films and TV programmes, which, more often than not, are one-sided. For instance, one of my American friends told me that most Americans had a strange bias against the Russian people until some young Americans traveled to Russia and saw with their own eyes that the Russians are human beings just like them. Another example is that, with the development of Chinese tourism, people outside China start to realize that Chinese men no longer have long braids and Chinese women’s feet are of normal size now. Secondly, having seen the fine scenery or experienced the rich culture of other countries, tourists will have the desire to develop a good relationship with the locals, which certainly contributes to the understanding between them.
In conclusion, instead of causing tension, international tourism furthers the understanding of people from different countries.
Passage ThreeWhat famous place would you like to visit? Use details and reasons to support your response.
各人往往會因為自己的出生地不同、家庭條件的不同、相關經歷的不同，甚至教育程度的不同而在選擇旅遊地方面呈現出極大的不同。出生紐約的人可能不會再對紐約感興趣，因為一切的一切都太熟悉了;來自經濟狀況較差家庭的孩子可能無力選擇遙遠的地方遊歷;在東京工作了多年的人士肯定希望能夠到日本東京以外的地方看一看;歷史遺蹟眾多的地方大概不會吸引多少國小畢業的人士。。。。。。，現實往往就是如此。就我個人各方面的情況而言，我現在能夠想到的自己最想去的地方就是中國的西安，主要原因就是我還從來沒有到過那裡。
Different people might choose to visit different places due to their different places of birth, family conditions, relevant experiences, and even different levels of education. People who were born in New York are less likely to be interested in New York any more for the simple reason that everything is just too familiar already. Children from less well-off families might find it difficult to afford a visit to a faraway place. Those who have been working in Tokyo for years are surely looking forward to touring around places out of town. Places with numerous sites of historical interest may not be so appealing to people with only a primary school education. Things are just like this in our real life. With all aspects considered, the most desirable place that I can think of going to at present is Xi’an in China for the simple reason that I have never been yet.
我希望去我沒有去過的地方。西安作為中國的歷史文化名城擁有幾千年的歷史。從中國成為一個統一的國家-秦朝開始，這個地方一直是後續各個朝代的首都，因此，這裡匯聚了眾多的歷史文化遺蹟。參觀這些遺蹟可以讓我親身感受到中國的過去是什麼樣子的，過去的人們是怎樣生活的。很早就聽說過西安的秦始皇兵馬俑，也看過相關的照片：規模巨集大，絕無僅有!可惜從來沒有親眼看看，這不能不說是一種極大的遺憾，所以，我不想為自己的一生留下這種遺憾。
Firstly, I would like to visit places where I have never been to. Xi’an, as a famous city with profound historical and cultural significance in China, enjoys a history that can be dated back to several thousand years ago. From the first dynasty when China became a unified country, namely the Qin Dynasty, this place was the capital of successive dynasties, thus it has many a site of historical and cultural heritage. As the saying goes: If you want to acquire a sense of history about China, visit Xi’an. A visit to these heritages, I am sure, will let me learn about what China was like in the past and how people lived at ancient times. I’ve long heard of the famous Terra Cotta Warriors and Horses of the First Emperor—Qin Shihuang, and have seen relevant pictures of it: really grand and exquisite, next to none in the world. However, I have never seen it on site with my own eyes, which could be a kind of regret. Therefore, I want to have this dream of mine realized at the earliest possible time.
其次，我希望品嚐一下西安的地方美食。早就聽說過西安的美食獨具特色，與我們家鄉的飯菜是完全不同的兩個風味。很多去過西安的人都在講那裡的飯菜怎樣怎樣好吃，特別是什麼什麼尤為味美，大有不嘗一嘗便遺憾終生的意思。所以，我選擇去西安遊歷的目的之二就是為了去大飽一次口福。
Secondly, I would like to try the local delicacies of Xi’an. I was long told about the unique flavor of the local cuisine there, which is so different from the food cooked in my hometown. Moreover, many people who were back from Xi’an are commenting so much favorably on the food there and are actually making no effort to hide their liking of certain dishes, giving me the impression that it would be a regret-whole-life thing if one does not try them in person. So on and so forth, this makes another reason which urges me to go to Xi’an for a visit.
當然，我沒去過的地方還有太多太多，包括國內的、國外的，比如四川、重慶、新疆、西藏、巴黎、柏林等等，它們也都各有其特色，在條件許可的情況下，我肯定也會逐漸去一一遊覽的，但近期，我只想先去西安。
Of course, there are countless places that I have never been to, both at home and abroad: Sichuan, Chongqing, Xijiang, Tibet, Paris, Berlin, to name just a few. I know to the best of my knowledge that they all have their distinct features which hold so much attraction to me and I will definitely visit all of them when conditions allow. However, for the time being, I just want to go to Xi’an.
以上便是我選擇去西安遊覽的兩個主要原因，不管別人會怎麼想，最起碼，我就是這樣認為的。
Above are two main reasons for me to have decided to visit Xi’an. Whatever others may think, for me alone, they do make sense.
