解析：政府投资类的话题几乎都和其他话题有交叉的地方，分别与教育、艺术、科技和公民健康等话题结合。这类题目的写法大同小异，好处就是促进教育、艺术、科技的发展，促进公民的健康，提高身体素质等等，而坏处都是一样的：浪费政府有限的财政预算lavish the tight budget of the government，或者说给政府造成了沉重的经济负担impose a heavy financial burden on the government.
具体到本题，题中的only一词过于绝对化，一般来说这种绝对化的词都是应该反对的，逻辑可以是：先让步（承认有一定道理），后转折（但是不具有唯一性）。
注意，让步段在前在后都可以，但是让步段不能以however/but等转折词开头，因为转折词后面才是真正的重点，前面都是铺垫。

How to allocate public funds wisely has long been a thorny issue for the policymakers and now the newly-emerged problem hunting the government is to decide whether the running cost of universities should be collected from students and non-governmental entities while the government capital investment is applied to monetarily reward top students only. As far as I am concerned，I find it hard to agree with this opinion.（注意首段的同义词替换，积累起来并运用到自己的作文中）
It is undeniably a necessity to provide scholarship to best students. As an approach to stimulate students' interest in learning and encourage them to work harder，it would well serve the purpose of boosting the development in certain areas. To be more specific，with the vivid example set by their peers indicating that excellence earns financial reward，university students would be more likely to throw themselves in study. It offers an incomparable opportunity for the government to cultivate talents for some specific fields that are hungry for fresh blood，like military，medical service or traditional culture protection. （先让步）
However，this never means the public funds should be utilized to reward top students only. Instead，other problems may be derived from this policy. The normal operation of a university involves many trivial yet important costs. Whereas， for a large number of young universities that have not been known by the public，it is challenging for them to attract students nor private organizations，thus no tuition fees or sponsorship. That is to say， this policy would undermine the development of universities. Moreover， yearning for money，there is a great possibility that the universities may exaggerate their merits and qualifications so as to attract more students. It is nothing less than a fraud and would mislead the students who would have become productive members of the society.（再转折）
In conclusion，the government funds，other than used for providing monetary reward for excellent students，should also be applied for other activities to ensure the normal function of universities.

One of the problems that have constantly troubled the government is how to manage public funds reasonably so as to ensure that its revenue is spent in the most cost-effective way.Some cannot help wondering whether the gpvernment should only support best students in universities.
people are, to some extent, justified instating that he funds should only be provided for the best students. With limited funds and so many fields to support, the government ought to manage the money wisely. If the funding of a university relies solely on the government, we cannot expect the country to enjoy a long-term economic development. It is also impossible for medical care system and'infrastructural construction, which also relies heavily on the government, to run well.
However, to be partial to the sacalled tab students devi?ies from what we expect Of the government, one of whose principles is*o ensure that every one is given equal right to enjoy public resources. To offer top preferential despite its original purpose to save public funds, may incur people's—doubt “put they authority and credibility of the government.
Another question is the difficulty in defining what kinds of students are really top. Bill Gate did not finish his study in university, he-can never becalled a top student, but he far exceeded his classmates in terms of the contribution to the.ociety. In other words, to be good in academic performances does not always mean that students can serve the pub ic well after graduation.
In conclusion, I disagree with the view that the government should only support the top students. Even if well intended, this measure might face unpredictable factors and lead to people's dissatisfaction with the government. 286 words
话题分析：
众所周知，教育类话题是雅思作文的“大户”，约占所有考试的1/5，因此是烤鸭复习备考时必须重点关注的。
教育类话题多种多样，涉及到
学生该学什么
学校该教什么（比如艺术类课程该不该作为必修课）
老师和学生之间的关系（比如学生是否该评价老师）
家长与学生之间的关系（比如孩子教育中家长更重要还是学校更重要）
教育方式（比如网络教育是不是比学校教育更有效）
教育投资（比如大学的学费到底是学生自己的责任还是政府的责任），等等。
本题是关于政府对教育的投资：应该只支持那些成绩好的学生吗？对于成绩不好的学生，应该自己支付或者由私人赞助商支付？
这个观点一看就比较荒谬，但问题是：我们应该怎样来驳斥这样一个观点？
首先，每一个大学生从某种意义上都是“好学生”，都应该得到政府的支持；
其次，即使按照学校标准划分了“好学生”，只资助这些“好学生”会让很多贫困家庭的孩子无法上学，使他们失去获得公平教育的机会；
最后，如果政府只资助“好学生”，无疑会在大学生中制造不平等，这是违背高等教育精神的。
当然，“好学生”也许该获得更多的奖励，但最好以奖学金的方式来进行，不应该削弱或剥夺其他学生的教育机会。
3、参考范文
The government in any country provides funding for the development of itshigher education, but there are divided opinions about where this government funding should go. Should it go exclusively to those “top students” or indiscriminately to all students? My personal view is, however, quite definitive: the government money should be provided for all students.
解析
（1） higher education 高等教育
（2） divided opinion 不一致的观点
（3） exclusively 单独地
（4） indiscriminately 不加区分地，不歧视地
（5） definitive 确定无疑的
任何国家的政府都为本国高等教育的发展提供资助，但关于政府资助到底该用在哪里却有不同观点。它是该只用于“优秀学生”还是不加区分地用于所有学生？然而，我个人的观点是确定无疑的：政府资金应该提供给所有学生。
To begin with, the concept of “top students” is rather vague or sometimesdownright mistaken. As I see it, all university students are “top” in one way or another. Some of them may be good at their academic subjects, while others may excel in music, sports, designing, to mention only a few. As each student is unique in his/her own way, to sort out a few and label them as “top students” is senseless and misleading. Then, secondly, even if we manage to define some students as being “top” in accordance with a set of （oftenbiased） standards, those from the poor families who happen not to fall into this “top” category will have a hard time going to college if they are not able to use the government funding. This means many students may lose the opportunity to receive higher education. Ultimately, government providing funding only for the “top students” is itself a bad thing to do, because it runs against the spirit of higher education, that is, to foster the sense of equality, fairness and justice.
解析
（1） concept 概念
（2） vague 模糊的
（3） downright 完全地
（4） as I see it 在我看来；我认为
（5） excel in… 在……方面很优秀
（6） label 标签
（7） biased 有偏见的
（8） ultimately 最后；终于
（9） foster 培养
首先，“优秀学生”这个概念相当模糊，有时候甚至是完全错误的。在我看来，所有大学生在某种方式上都是“优秀”的。有些可能精于学业，另外一些可能在音乐、体育、设计等方面超过别人。由于每个学生都以自己的方式而独特，那么选出一些并标之以“优秀学生”就是没有意义而且具有误导性的。其次，即使我们按照一套（往往是带有偏见的）标准，成功地把一些学生定义为“优秀”，那些来自贫穷家庭又恰好没有被划入“优秀”范围的学生如果不能使用政府资金，上大学就会有困难。这意味着很多学生可能失去接受大学教育的机会。最后，政府仅为“优秀学生”提供资助本身就是一件不好的事情，因为这种做法违背了高等教育的精神，即培养平等、公平、正义的意识。
This does not follow, however, that the hard work of those “top students” should not be rewarded. My suggestion is that they be rewarded in various forms of scholarships. In this way, the “top students” are positively encouraged and meanwhile other students are not deprived of the government financial support.
解析
（1） this does not follow that… 这不意味着……
（2） reward 回报，奖励
（3） be deprived of… ……被剥夺
然而，这并不意味着“优秀学生”付出的辛苦不应该得到回报。我的建议是以各种奖学金的形式回报他们。这样，“优秀学生”就得到了正面的鼓励，而同时其他学生也不被剥夺政府的资金支持。
4、参考范文
第一段做个同义改写就好——
Some people believe that all government funding should be used to award best students, and funding from student fee and private organizations can meet budget shortfalls of universities, but I cannot agree with this opinion.
第二段，写一下奖学金对学生的激励作用
Admittedly, using government funding to award excellent students can motivate students. When students receive scholarships from universities, they may have a feeling that they are also recognized by governments since those scholarships are sponsored by the authorities. Then, these top students may be more willing to study harder and make contributions to both their universities and society. However, there still exist demerits if government funding is only used for awarding top students.
第三段，说一下穷学生的囧境
To begin with, charging poor students may deprive them of the opportunity of learning. For some poor students, the only way for them to go to universities is to get a scholarship. However, if they do not perform well in the entrance examination for universities, they may not receive scholarships from governments. Then, they lose the access to universities, which actually means that they lose an opportunity of changing their life.
第四段，说一下傲娇的private organizations
In addition, private organizations may refuse to fund universities anymore. It is common that private organizations will set some regulations for utilizing the funding they provide. For example, some organizations may regulate that their money can be only used to award students with some traits, such as their nationality or their beliefs, but not their academic performances. If universities chooses to use such funding for other purposes, private organizations may stop their financial support for universities in the future.
第五段，做一个小小总结
In sum, it may not be an optimal choice for universities to allocate all government funding to scholarships for top students and it is not wise for universities to raise all other funding from private organizations or rely on student fee, considering that private organizations often regulate the way money is used and poor students may not afford the expense of tertiary education. |
