GRE政治类写作素材整理

　　新GRE写作范文之国家政治如下：

　　The surest indicator of a GREat nation is represented not by the achievements of its rulers, artists, or scientists, but by the general welfare of its people.

　　一个国家的伟大体现在国民的安乐上，而不是体现在统治者、艺术家或科学家的成就上。

　　1. It is true that the general welfare of its all people is a reliable indicator of a GREat nation. The welfare of the people, including the living condition, social security system and charity of developed country is often far better than those of developing countries.

　　2. On the other hand, however, the achievements of its rulers, artists and scientists are of equal important, which by their way bring the aim of welfare of its people into fruition.

　　1) As what is mentioned above, when we speak of promoting the general welfare, we refer to the following index: public health and safety, security against invasion, individual liberty and freedom as well as a high standard of living, while all of these are brought about by its rulers, artists and scientist.

　　2) Scientific and technological achievements serve in the first place to enhance a nations general welfare.

　　3) Artistic achievements could not be neglected, though. They help to make a nation a better place to reside.

　　4) Yet the achievements of artists and scientist, while integral, are insufficient. The military and diplomatic accomplishment of its leaders could neither be ignored in the general welfare of a nation.
