關(guān)于新聞審核的雅思作文范文

　　Some people say that censorship should be cancelled completely. Do you agree or disagree with the statement?

　　有些人認為應(yīng)該完全取消審查制度，你同意這種觀點嗎？

　　As to whether is worthwhile for a modern civilized society to retain the practice of censorship, there is a long-running controversial debate. It is quite natural that people from different backgrounds may have divergent attitudes towards it.

　　Some critics insist that we should abolish this practice. They claim that this is a violation of freedom. As society progresses, democracy should develop, too. We should enjoy more freedom than before. We should be allowed to do whatever we like to. And news reporters should have the right to report what they want to cover. All of us have the basic human rights such as freedom of speech and freedom of press. Moreover, the practice may more often than not be abused and applied to all aspects of life. Some artists even say that the practice of censorship will ineluctably interfere with their creation. Therefore, they hold that any efforts to restrict people's freedom of speech and press should be condemned.

　　Inevitably, on the other side, there are others who strongly advocate the practice of censorship. Democracy cannot go to the extreme. They think that it's essential to exercise this practice because they believe that too much liberty spoils all. They have several reasons for this. Firstly, with this practice, we can guarantee the positive influence of the mass media. We can make sure that what is reported is true and that the effects are good. If people are given the reins to report whatever they like to, there is possibility that some news items are nothing true but sensational in order to grab the public attention and make profits. Secondly, the responsibility of society of mass media is strengthened. They will think over what kind of results their articles will bring about every time they write. And they will aim to collect writing materials which will exert beneficial and positive influence on the public. Thirdly, we can have a clean cultural environment, which is essential and crucial to the smooth and healthy development of our society.

　　With views of both sides considered, I think that it is necessary to exercise the practice of censorship for the good of our society, and for the good of our younger generations.
