写作题目
收起Think carefully about the issue presented in the following excerpt and assignment below:
Sometimes it is necessary to challenge what people in authority claim to be true. Although some respect for authority is, no doubt, necessary in order for any group or organization to function, questioning the people in charge-even if they are experts or leaders in their fields-makes us better thinkers. It forces all concerned to defend old ideas and decisions and to consider new ones. Sometimes it can even correct old errors in thought and put an end to wrong actions.
Is it important to question the ideas and decisions of people in positions of authority?
Plan and write an essay in which you develop your point of view on this issue. Support your position with reasoning and examples taken from your reading, studies, experience, or observation.

有时候,挑战权威人士声称是对的东西是有必要的。尽管对权威的尊重毫无疑问对任何组织的运行是必要的,然而质疑负责人让我们拥有更好的思想。不论是领域内的专家还是领导。这让所有的相关者都必须维护旧的思想和决定,并且思考新的思想和决定。有时候,甚至纠正过往的错误,停止错误的行动。
