初看这个辩题,觉得挺难打,仔细思考一下之后,感觉还是蛮有话说的首先建议一下,不要从所谓“人权”的角度去讲——“人权”这个词,已经被某大国滥用,以至于非常不得人心,如果不想给观众和评委造成逆反心理,还是不要作为主攻方向的好。
法律、刑罚的最终目标,不是为了惩罚犯罪,是制止犯罪——最好没有人犯罪因此,惩罚不是目的,警示和威慑也只是手段,最关键的还是教育作用——用“死刑”来“杀鸡儆猴”,其实是很初级的方式,其实质是一种“以武力压制”式的威慑。
但是,事实告诉我们,无论“死”的威慑力有多大,“不怕死”的,从古自今,从未绝迹过——秦始皇时代,死刑的种类异常繁多,每年被判死刑的人不计其数,以至于杀不胜杀,干脆拉去修长城、修陵寝。
尽管如此看重“死刑”的威慑,但是,结果与愿望恰恰相反,秦朝只存续了15年,短短15年,不要说朝代,就算是个孩子,活不过15岁,就只能称为“夭折”!秦朝的迅速灭亡,从一方面也告诉我们:死刑的威慑,绝对不是制止犯法的最佳手段!我们认为,制止犯罪,最主要还是要从“心”开始!连古代人都知道:“刑,莫过于大辟”,也就是说,刑罚的最高限度,最需要谨慎对待的,就是死刑。
这说明,古代人也已经了解,对死刑,要采取非常谨慎的态度。
纵观古今中外,死刑的威慑作用,是被逐步弱化的,取而代之的是教育警示的作用——从最早期的烹(把人扔掉油锅里)、磔刑(把人砍成无数段)、炮烙(这个大家知道)、五马分尸,等等,到后来弱化为砍头;再后来就不是随时都可以执行死刑了,要等秋后问斩;再到明清之后,每个死刑犯都要由皇帝亲自“勾绝”;中国的死刑制度,越来越谨慎,越弱化,而加强的,是人们对“什么样的行为会被判死刑”的认识,也就是普法教育——社会治安并未因为死刑犯数量的减少而变差,反而越来越文明,越来越开化这是中国,在国外,我们也可以看到,死刑从断头台的身首异处,到枪决的保留全尸,再到绞刑架的不见血迹,到现代的电椅、死刑注射,逐步地人性化——不要认为,对于罪大恶极的死刑犯,就要“以血还血”“血债血偿”!!!“以血还血”“血债血偿”,是中国千百年来的一种固定思维模式,仿佛只有用最恶毒的方式惩罚对方,才能满足报复心理,或者才能让看到的人从此害怕,不敢再犯……但是,我们知道,这种做法是达不到效果的,我们甚至可以说这种想法是“幼稚”的!时至今日,中国人还抛弃不了这种“幼稚”的看法吗?当然不,就连你我,也能够知道,“血债血偿”是达不到最佳效果的,那么,为什么还要死死抱着“死刑”这个“法宝”不放呢?!!对于犯罪者,我们应该给予改过的机会;对于那种屡教不改,确实危害巨大的,我们也不应该用“杀”的方式来对待。

Parliamentary Points of Information
Debaters may offer a point of information (either verbally or by rising) at any time after the first minute, and before the last minute, of any speech. The debater holding the floor may accept or refuse points of information. If accepted, the debater making the request has fifteen seconds present the point of information. During the point of information, the speaking time of the floor debater continues.
A “motion” is the statement around which the debate takes place. The motion divides the ground in the debate between the Proposition and Opposition teams and should allow for reasonable arguments both for and against.
小学生英文辩论赛题目
小学生英文辩论赛题目Today, we are here to debate about an important topic that affects all of us in our daily lives. The topic is about the use of technology in schools.On one side, some people believe that technology is essential for students to learn and adapt to the modern world. They argue that using computers, tablets, and the internet can help students to access information quickly and efficiently. In addition, technology can make learning more fun and interactive, which can lead to better retention of knowledge.On the other side, some people are concerned about the negative impact of technology on students. They argue that excessive screen time can lead to poor eyesight, decreased physical activity, and social isolation. They also worry that students may become too reliant on technology and rely less on critical thinking and problem-solving skills.It is important for us to consider both sides of the argument and come to a conclusion that is best for students' overall well-being and academic success. As young students, we must be mindful of how we use technology and balance its benefits with its drawbacks. Thank you.。

英语辩论赛常用语辩论题目:motion(价值辩论的辩题)Motion :Are you for or against Naked Marriage?正方一辩:1st Affirmative 正方二辩:2nd Affirmative 反方一辩:1st Negative 反方二辩:2nd Negative计时员:time-keeperSchedule:chairman hosting scoring:Presentation 20% Questioning 5% Answering 20%Free debate 20% Summarizing 20% Demeanor 15%行为,风度Round one: position presentation Round two: free debate Round three: position summaryRound Four: Time for questions Both the judge and the audiences could ask questions. Each for one side. Comment from Judge Definition of key wordsEach side has the right to make any reasonable definitions of each of the terms of the motion. A―reasonable‖ definition generally means the definition intended when the motion was phrased, or the technical definition of the term as used by professionals in that field. If the affirmative‘s definition is not reasonable, the negative should challenge it at the earliest opportunity.Reasons and opinionsThe team line is the basic statement of ―why the topic is true?" for the affirmative) and ―why the topic is false?‖ ( for the negative).A debate is a contest, or, perhaps, like a game, where speakers present their arguments intent on persuading one another.A debate is a form of argument. The topic changes from debate to debate. They are often about current issues of public importance or about general philosophies or ideas.What can we learn through debating ? Debating is a way of arguing constructively. Through debating, students can: develop positive attitudes toward the intellectual exchange of ideasdevelop an interest in the investigation of issues and problemsBasic rules:the roles of the debatersWe’ll limit our discussion to team debate. In this type of debate, each team consists of two speakers. Each speake r has specified roles that they must fulfill to play their part in the team.1. 1st affirmative speaker must: Define the topic; Present the affirmative‘s team line; Begin arguments against the negative side.2. 1st negative must: Accept or reject the defi nition. If you don‘t do this it is assumed that you accept the definition. Present the negative team line; Rebut some of the main points of the 1st affirmative speaker; Present strong negative arguments .3. Free debate: rebuttal and refutation speech4.2nd affirmative speaker must: Reaffirm the affirmative‘s team line; Rebut all the remaining points of the negative‘s case; Present a summary of the affirmative‘s case; Round off the debate for the affirmative.5. 2nd negative must: Reaffirm the negati ve‘s team line; Rebut all the remaining points of the affirmative‘s case; Round off the debate for the negative .Construct Effective ArgumentsThere are many techniques that each speaker can use in their speech but there are three main areas that you will be marked on. They are language, content and delivery.1. LanguageLanguage is important, of course, since contestants must be understood. Judges look for accurate pronunciation, and articulation as well as the ability to vary the pace and pitch of the voice when speaking.This often requires speakers to slow their speech more than they would for everyday language.V ocabulary use must be appropriate, correct and interesting although it is perhaps better not to use words that you have difficulty pronouncing.There are no marks to be gained from trying to use big words you don‘t understand or can‘t pronounce.2. ContentContent is what you say, it is the substance of your speech. Y ou should divide your content into arguments and supportingmaterials. An argument is a statement ― The topic is true/false because of X‖, where the argument fills in for the X. For example in the topic ― That the zoos should be closed‖ an argument may be: ―the zoos should be closed because they confine the animals in an unn atural environment‖The most important aspect of debating is that assertions must be justified. No one can be convinced or persuaded of anything if they are given no reason for doing so. That is to say you should use materials to support your arguments. Supporting materials can be examples. An example is a fact or piece of evidence, which supports an argument. Y our arguments can also be backed up with other supporting materials, like reasons, statistics, and even with anecdotes, idioms, proverbs , quotations and analogies.3. Delivery To bring the topic alive, you need to consider your delivery. Here are some tips and pointers.i. Cue cards Do not write out your speech on cue cards. Debating is an exercise in lively interaction between two teams and the audience. Use cue cards the same way you would use a prompt(台词提示) in a play. They are there for reference if you lose your spot.ii. Eye contact If you look at the audience you will hold their attention.iii. V oice Adjust your volume, pitch and rate of speaking to emphasize important points and catch the audie nce‘s attention. * Constant shouting will be very annoying.Refute argumentsRefutation is the process of proving that an argument or a series of arguments, or the conclusions drawn from that argument or arguments, is false, erroneous, or at least doubtful. Q: If, for instance, someone says "X will win the match," how can you refute?. In a debate, effective refutations are key to success. Refutation should be handled systematically. Here are guidelines that you can follow:1. Anticipate what your opponent will say. A speech of rebuttal requires antic ipation of what opponent will say. For any controversial proposal, you should know the material on both sides. If you have an idea of how your opponent will proceed, you will be in a much better position to reply.2. Take careful notes of what your opponent says accurately and as nearly as possible in the actual words used. Sketch your reactions as you listen. Thoughts will come to mind as you are outlining, and you will be in a much better position to respond.3. Find your opponents' fallacies in arguments and attack on that basis.If the opposition's case is built on an assertion with little or no evidence to support the assertion, you can refute the argument on that basis.For every bit of evidence presented, you should ask the four questions: what is the source? Are the data fact or opinion? Are the data recent? Are the data relevant?When speakers do not justify their assertions, it is a golden opportunity for the opposition to request facts or figures. A word of warning however, it will be considered 'weak‗ if a debater merely says, "Please respond" or 'Please give us some evidence" without stating or restating the specific subject that they want evidence on.4. Organize your arguments effectively.Although you do not have long to consider exactly, your refutation must be organized nearly as well as your planned speeches. If you think refutation as units of argument, each organized by following four definite steps, you will learn to prepare and to present refutation effectively.(1) state the argument you are going to refute clearly and concisely.(2) State what you will prove. Y ou must tell your listeners how you plan to proceed so that they will be able to follow your thinking.(3) Present the reasons and data completely and with documentation ( a brief reference to source ).(4) Draw a conclusion. Do not rely on the audience to draw the proper conclusion for you. Never go on to another argument before you have drawn your conclusion.Avoid fallacies in argumentsMaking effective and logical arguments is key to success in a debate. To make your arguments sound, you have to be careful about fallacies in reasoning. A summary of the typical fallacies is presented as follows.1. Emotional argument Emotional arguments are based on feelings, not logic. For example, "Listen ! I love New Zealand. Ilove the All Blacks, the Tall Ferns. We should get down on our knees and thank the sporting gods for them…‖2. Doubtful authority An argument supported by a person who is not accepted as an expert is considered ineffective. Here is one example: Let us consider the questions of sport. My Dad told me that the America‘s Cup is organized for millionaires, and funded by the money the Australians pay us to lose to them in all sports.3. Circular argument Y ou should avoid arguments that go round and round but never get to the point. The following is an example of arguing in a circle: Segregation should be prohibited for it is morally wrong; we know it is morally wrong because it is a practice that should be prohibited. Often arguing in a circle does not appear as clearly as in the example cited. Often it demands keen analysis before you can discover it.4.Irrelevant conclusion Another typical type of fallacy is forming an argument that can not be proved by the ideas put forward. For instance: All these points go to show that on this planet we are the greatest sporting nation ever!5. Limited exampleY ou should avoid an argument which only applies in a few situations. Here is one example: And what about Peter Hillary climbing Everest? That is proof that we are the world's top climbing nation...6. Personal attack Personal attack means criticizing the speaker instead of what they have said, like "Y et the pathetic, pimply, alternative team say this is a good thing for New Zealand..."Do not criticize the individual speakers, criticize what they say. To call someone fat, ugly or a nerd does not make what they say wrong and it will also lose you marks.A few tips to followConfidence is vital in debate. Dress appropriately Have notes prepared. Y ou do not want your debate to be an oral presentation of a written essay. Practice speaking aloud in front of a mirror and then in front of other people.Understand both sides of the debate so that you are prepared to contradict the other side.Be ready to concede small points. It does not matter if you lose many little battles, so long as you win the war.The rules of asking partThe speech of each debater should includes answer part and ask part. The answer should be clear and easy and the question also should be clear.( only one question each time) During the debate, debaters cannot read the imformation that is prepared before. But they can show the summary of any newspaper or book.During the debate, debaters cannot leave sets.

英文辩论赛辩题大全
英文辩论赛辩题大全英文回答:1. Resolved: The benefits of genetically modified organisms outweigh the risks.Genetically modified organisms (GMOs) have sparked a fierce debate about their potential benefits and risks. Proponents of GMOs argue that they offer a number of advantages, including increased crop yields, resistance to pests and diseases, and enhanced nutritional value. They also point to the fact that GMOs have been extensively tested and found to be safe for human consumption.Opponents of GMOs, on the other hand, raise concerns about the potential environmental and health risks associated with their use. They argue that GMOs can cross-pollinate with wild plants, creating new and potentially harmful species. They also worry that GMOs could lead to the development of antibiotic-resistant bacteria.The debate over GMOs is complex and there is no easy answer. However, I believe that the potential benefits of GMOs outweigh the risks. GMOs have the potential to help us feed a growing global population and to reduce our reliance on pesticides and herbicides. They also have the potential to improve the nutritional value of our food.2. Resolved: The internet has had a negative impact on society.The internet has revolutionized the way we live our lives. It has made it easier to communicate with friends and family, to learn new things, and to access entertainment. However, some people argue that the internet has also had a negative impact on society.One of the main concerns about the internet is that it can be addictive. People can spend hours surfing the web, playing games, or watching videos. This can lead to problems with social isolation, sleep deprivation, and obesity.Another concern about the internet is that it can be a source of cyberbullying. Cyberbullying can have a devastating impact on victims, leading to depression, anxiety, and even suicide.Finally, some people worry that the internet is making us more narcissistic. Social media platforms like Facebook and Instagram encourage us to share our lives with others. This can lead to a constant need for attention and approval.I believe that the internet has had a mixed impact on society. While it has undoubtedly brought many benefits, it also has some potential drawbacks. It is important to be aware of these drawbacks and to use the internet in a healthy and balanced way.3. Resolved: The government should provide free healthcare to all citizens.Healthcare is a basic human right. Everyone deserves access to quality healthcare, regardless of their income oremployment status. The government has a responsibility to ensure that all citizens have access to the healthcare they need.There are many benefits to providing free healthcare to all citizens. First, it would improve the health of the population. People would be more likely to seek medical care if they did not have to worry about the cost. This would lead to earlier diagnosis and treatment of diseases, which would save lives and improve quality of life.Second, free healthcare would reduce poverty. Many people are forced to choose between paying for healthcare and paying for other necessities, such as food and housing. Free healthcare would eliminate this dilemma.Third, free healthcare would boost the economy. A healthy population is a productive population. People who are healthy are more likely to work and earn money. They are also more likely to be involved in their communities.I believe that the government should provide freehealthcare to all citizens. It is the right thing to do and it would have a positive impact on the health of the population, the economy, and society as a whole.中文回答:1. 同意,转基因生物的好处大于风险。

英文辩论赛辩题Title: Should fast food advertising be banned?Fast food advertising has been a topic of debate for many years, with some arguing that it should be banned in order to combat the rising rates of obesity and other health issues, while others believe that it is a form of free speech and should not be restricted. In this debate, we will explore both sides of the argument and ultimately determine whether or not fast food advertising should be banned.Those in favor of banning fast food advertising argue that it contributes to the obesity epidemic by promoting unhealthy eating habits. They point to the fact that fast food companies often target children and adolescents with their advertisements, leading to a generation of young people who are addicted to unhealthy food. Additionally, they argue that fast food advertising creates a culture of overconsumption and waste, as people are encouraged topurchase more food than they need, leading to environmental and health problems.On the other hand, those who oppose banning fast food advertising argue that it is a form of free speech and should not be restricted. They believe that individuals have the right to make their own choices about what they eat, and that banning fast food advertising would be an infringement on this right. They also argue that fast food companies provide jobs and contribute to the economy, and that banning their advertising would have negative economic consequences.In conclusion, the debate over whether fast food advertising should be banned is a complex and contentious issue. While it is clear that fast food advertising does contribute to the obesity epidemic and other health issues, it is also important to consider the rights of individuals and the economic impact of banning such advertising. Ultimately, it is up to policymakers to carefully weigh these factors and make a decision that will best serve the public good.。

辩论赛辩题
辩论赛辩题英文回答:In the realm of competitive debate, the propositionthat "The internet has done more harm than good to society" presents a complex and multifaceted argument. While the internet has undoubtedly brought about numerous benefits,it is essential to scrutinize its potential negative impacts on our social fabric and individual well-being.One of the most concerning issues raised by the motion is the spread of misinformation and the erosion of trust in credible sources. The internet has become a breeding ground for "fake news" and conspiracy theories, which have the power to mislead and divide society. By blurring the lines between truth and falsehood, the internet has made it increasingly difficult for individuals to form informed opinions and engage in meaningful discourse.Moreover, the ubiquity of social media has contributedto an alarming rise in cyberbullying and online harassment. Anonymity on platforms like Twitter and Facebook has emboldened trolls and bullies to inflict emotional distress on others with impunity. This can have devastating consequences for victims, leading to anxiety, depression, and even suicide.The internet has also been implicated in a decline in face-to-face interactions and a loss of social skills. The constant stimulation and entertainment provided by smartphones and social media apps can become addictive, leading individuals to withdraw from real-world relationships. This can result in social isolation, loneliness, and a diminished sense of community.Furthermore, the internet has facilitated the proliferation of addictive behaviors, such as excessive gaming, online gambling, and pornography. These behaviors can lead to health problems, financial ruin, and relationship breakdown. While the internet can be a valuable tool for education and self-improvement, it is important to recognize its potential for addiction andexercise moderation.It is important to acknowledge that the internet has also brought about significant benefits. It has broken down geographical barriers, enabling people from all corners of the world to connect and exchange ideas. Access to information and educational resources has been democratized, empowering individuals to pursue their interests andlifelong learning.The internet has also revolutionized the way we conduct business, making it easier for entrepreneurs to launch startups and for consumers to access goods and servicesfrom anywhere in the world. Telemedicine and online education have made healthcare and education moreaccessible to people in remote areas.In conclusion, while the internet has undoubtedly brought about many positive changes in society, it iscrucial to recognize its potential negative impacts. The spread of misinformation, cyberbullying, social isolation, and addictive behaviors are serious concerns that need tobe addressed. By striking a balance between the benefitsand the risks, we can harness the power of the internet for good while mitigating its potential harms.中文回答:互联网对社会的利大于弊是一个极具争议的话题。
辩论赛辩题
辩论赛辩题英文回答:In the realm of debate, where minds clash and ideas ignite, the proposition "Should the government regulate social media" presents a multifaceted conundrum that demands careful consideration. As an ardent advocate for preserving both individual freedom and societal well-being, I firmly believe that the government should take an active role in regulating social media.Social media has become an integral part of our lives. We use it to connect with friends and family, share our thoughts and experiences, and stay informed about current events. However, the rise of social media has also brought with it a number of challenges, including the spread of misinformation, hate speech, and cyberbullying.Misinformation, the intentional or unintentional spread of false information, is a major problem on social media.False news stories can quickly go viral, reaching millions of people and causing widespread harm. For example, during the 2016 U.S. presidential election, Russian trolls used social media to spread fake news stories about Hillary Clinton, which likely influenced the outcome of the election.Hate speech, which is speech that incites hatred or violence against a particular group of people, is another serious problem on social media. Hate speech can have a devastating impact on its targets, leading to feelings of isolation, fear, and even violence. For example, in 2018, a white supremacist used social media to plan and carry out a mass shooting at a synagogue in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.Cyberbullying, the use of electronic devices to bully or harass someone, is also a major problem on social media. Cyberbullying can have a lasting negative impact on its victims, leading to depression, anxiety, and even suicide. For example, in 2013, a 14-year-old girl in Massachusetts committed suicide after being cyberbullied by her classmates.These are just a few examples of the many challengesthat social media poses to our society. While social media can be a powerful force for good, it can also be used to spread misinformation, hate speech, and cyberbullying. The government has a responsibility to protect its citizensfrom these harms, and that includes regulating social media.Some people argue that regulating social media would be a violation of free speech. However, I believe that thereis a difference between free speech and harmful speech. Misinformation, hate speech, and cyberbullying are all harmful speech, and the government has a legitimateinterest in preventing them.Others argue that regulating social media would be ineffective. However, I believe that there are a number of effective ways to regulate social media. For example, the government could require social media companies to take down harmful content, or it could impose fines on social media companies that fail to do so.I believe that the benefits of regulating social media outweigh the risks. Social media has become a powerful tool, and it is essential that we use it responsibly. The government has a responsibility to protect its citizensfrom the harms of social media, and that includesregulating it.中文回答:在唇枪舌剑的辩论赛场上,“政府是否应该监管社交媒体”这一辩题层层递进,引发诸多思考。
