雅思写作高分大作文范文：年轻人为什么不能当leader?

　　The leaders or directors of organizations are often older people. But some people say that young people can also be a leader. What do you think?

　　题目讲解

　　2015年首场大作文题目略抽象，难在拓展。

　　范文是双边论证，方法用的是具体化，举例子：

　　一：老年人适合当leader。因为他们社会经验多，社交圈子广，认知能力强，遇到问题不仅能够考虑全面，而且能够有很好的心态应对各种问题，在弱势的时候鼓舞团队成员。

　　二：年轻人也可以当leader。现在是全球化的信息时代，年轻人学习能力强，语言沟通能力强，有同理心，能够很好地了解各国文化，招贤纳士，并且留住人才。

　　雅思写作参考范文：

　　It is true that many leaders and senior executives in global companies are elderly people. However, I would argue that those superb young people are also eligible to take important positions in today’s world.

　　的确，全球企业的许多领导人和高管都是老年人。然而，我认为这些优秀的年轻人也有资格在当今世界占据重要地位。

　　On the one hand, compared to the young generation, elderly people possess more edges. First and foremost, they have better cognitive skills, such as big-picture thinking and long-term vision. This is because years of work experience and failures teach them to take every aspect into consideration before making important decisions. By contrast, due to a lack of social experience, young leaders seem to make shortsighted decisions sometimes. Moreover, since the old have already overcome countless difficulties and challenges prior, they can quickly adjust their mood in turmoil and lift them or ale of the whole organization.

　　一方面，与年轻一代相比，老年人拥有更多的边缘。首先，他们有更好的认知能力，比如大的思考和长远的眼光。这是因为多年的工作经验和失败让他们在做重要决定之前，把每一个方面都考虑进去。相比之下，由于缺乏社交经验，年轻的领导者们有时似乎会做出短视的决定。此外，由于老年人已经克服了无数的困难和挑战，他们可以在混乱中迅速调整情绪，提升整个组织的情绪。

　　On the other hand, there are two reasons why younger directors are also competent to be leaders in important positions. In the first place, with well-educated backgrounds, young leaders are more likely to have a deep understanding of cultural difference, and they can empathize with other employees and clients much better. Today, empathy plays a key role in retention of talents. For example, it is easy to misunderstand others in a cross-cultural dialogue. When good employees resign, they might take the company’s knowledge with them, which is a brain drain for the company. Secondly, compared with the senior leaders, young directors can apply the latest technology and theory into practice, and this can counteract negative stereotype of management and greatly improve the productivity.

　　另一方面，年轻董事也有能力成为重要职位的领导者有两个原因。首先，拥有良好教育背景的年轻领导人更有可能对文化差异有深刻的理解，他们也能更好地与其他雇员和客户产生共鸣。如今，同理心在留住人才方面起着关键作用。例如，在跨文化对话中很容易误解他人。当优秀的员工辞职时，他们可能会把公司的知识带在身边，这是公司的人才流失。其次，与高层领导相比，年轻的董事们可以将最新的技术和理论应用到实践中，这可以抵消管理的负面影响，并极大地提高生产率。

　　In conclusion, in my opinion, age should not be the criterion when selecting the leader of a company. Anyone who has the leadership can play his or her role in the organization.

　　总之，在我看来，年龄不应该是选择公司领导者的标准。任何有领导能力的人都可以在组织中发挥自己的作用。
