在考试中，事实上大部分题目都可以从人和社会的角度来思考并寻找论证角度。
人的角度： 凡事以人为本，因此那些能为人们带来益处的事物总是我们所推崇的，而那些不利于人们的事物则应该为我们所摒弃。
●health
e.g. physical, mental & psychological health
●wealth
e.g. material & spiritual wealth
●improvement of living standard
e.g. clothing, food, housing transport & education
社会的角度： 人组成了社会，因此社会包含了人与人的关系以及其相关的内容。
●relationship between two people
e.g. understanding and confidence between people & friendships
●the development of social economy
e. g. the boom of trades, the development of social economy & the increase in revenue
●social civilization
e.g. language, custom, religion and belief & tradition
以下七项原则也是考生打开思路的途径之一。
女性就业：
●Women find that they must work to earn enough money to provide for their family.
●Once they get married, the majority of women continue working since the financial pressures of setting up a house and establishing a reasonable standard of living often require two incomes.
●Those professional childcare facilities come at a cost and often require two salaries coming into a family to be affordable.
●Indeed it could be argued that by giving mothers the opportunity to work and earn extra money, children can be better provided for than previously. There is more money for luxuries and holidays and a more secure family life is possible.
艺术：
●The arts can be an important attraction for tourists, bringing considerable revenue into the country.
●Government subsidy of the arts is unnecessary because if art is good enough, then people will pay for it. If art is not good enough to be popular, then government should not reward it for its failure.
●Art is not a commodity.

●Globalisation has increased world prosperity.
英语作为国际语言：
●If everyone spoke the same language it would be much easier for people to move and work in different countries or to conduct trade with each other.

●Parents often find some uniform items, e.g. jackets, very expensive compared to the rest of their child’s wardrobe, and complain they can never be worn outside the school environment.
旅游：
●Tourism is the largest industry in the world. It surpasses the trade in oil, steel, and armaments in total dollar value and in employment created.

女性就业：
●This also helps to create jobs in the childcare sector, generating employment for more people.
核能：
●The nuclear industry is a major employer.
父母共同照顾孩子：
●The economic and employment situation in many countries means that jobs are getting more, not less, stressful, requiring long hours and perhaps long journeys to work as well. Therefore, it may remain for many a desirable ideal rather than an achievable reality.
旅游：
●Tourism increases employment opportunities. Additional jobs, ranging from low-wage, entry level to high-paying professional positions in management and technical fields, generate income and raise standards of living. As tourism increases in importance, tourism-related employment needs will also increase.
●Many hotels are parts of large international chains, choosing to exploit local labour purely because it is cheap.

Violence, aggression, crimes and wars are broadcast through the daily news as well as in movies, showing dark pictures that encourage psychological tension, pessimism and negative emotions.
●TV and movies shouldn’t be a way to hide from life. Sometimes it can help us to cope with real problems.

●They learn that force is an acceptable factor in human interaction; they feel humiliated and lose self-respect.
●A physical punishment is likely to provoke resentment and further misbehaviour.
课外活动：
●Without the opportunity to do this, they could grow up immature and unformed.
●It is also important to remember that children need to relax as well as work. If everything they do must have educational or academic relevance, they will soon get tired of studying altogether, which is the last thing parents would want.

●The risks of stifling free expression far outweigh the potential for unacceptable material.
●An individual’s rights end when they impinge on the safety and rights of others.
媒体报道名人：
●Famous people deserve privacy and respect.
●Although, generally speaking, the media should not interfere in people’s private lives, there are times when it is correct to do so.
母亲照顾孩子：
●Mothers should have as much freedom as anyone else in society to decide what is best for them and their children.
家庭教育：

●Overall, however, the essential point is that it is morally wrong to kill animals for pleasure and no amount of economic benefits can make that right.
动物实验：
●We need to make sure that millions of animals who are used for testing new products are treated with the minimum of suffering. Although some animal testing may be unavoidable at present, treating our fellow creatures as mercifully as possible will demonstrate our humanity.
