參考范文
When it comes to how to measure a country’s progress, different people may have different standards of it. 1
Some people may hold that economic progress is one way to measure a country’s success. With economic progress, people witness great improvement in living conditions and increase of living standard. 2 While others maintain that other factors, such as better social systems and the increasingly enhanced international political status, are also important. 2 There are also people who think that GDP growth means social progress, technological development and productive increase. 2
There is no doubt that the factors such as economic progress, GDP growth, social systems and international political status are very important ones to measure a country’s progress. 3 But for my part, more indicators related to health and environment should figure into measures of national progress. 4 For instance 5 , less inequality and unemployment, less water and air pollution, good climate, less wetlands depletion and more forest cover, higher education and lower crime rate—all these indicators more accurately reflect the progress of human society. To conclude 6 , the overall social improvement can be an ideal standard of measuring a nation’s progress.
當說到如何衡量一個國家的進步這一問題時，不同的人可能會有不同的標準。
有些人或許認為，經(jīng)濟的發(fā)展是衡量國家進步的方法之一。經(jīng)濟發(fā)展了，人們會見證生活條件的巨大改善和生活水平的提高。而另一些人則認為，其他的因素，如良好的社會制度和不斷增強的國際政治地位也很重要。還有的人認為，GDP的增長代表著社會的進步、科技的發(fā)展和生產(chǎn)力的增加。
毋庸置疑，經(jīng)濟發(fā)展、GDP增長、社會制度及國際政治地位等是衡量國家進步的重要因素。但在我看來，更多與健康和環(huán)境相關的指標應該計入衡量國家進步的標準之中。例如，不平等現(xiàn)象少、失業(yè)率低、水和空氣污染少、氣候好、濕地消耗少、森林覆蓋率高、受教育程度高、犯罪率低，所有這些指標會更精確地反映人類社會的進步?？偠灾?，社會的全面進步才是衡量國家進步的最好標準。
