Governments should only spend on public services, but not waste on arts such as music and painting. To what extent do you agree or disagree?
Art and music have long been records, examples and symbols of a culture or period of time, yet some have put forth the argument that governments should not set aside any money to pay for such activities, but should only pay for public services. Personally, I disagree with the view that arts and music should not receive any funding, but I would agree that resources can be reduced during tough economic times.
【Introduction首句给出了背景，并引出了题目是否应该只给公共设施提供资金，而不应该给予艺术方面任何的经济支持。本段中类似于put forth, set aside，tough economic times这些短语都是非常值得摘录的。】
Granted, every government has restrictive budgets when addressing a variety of necessary public services. Education, welfare, defence, healthcare and the construction and maintenance of infrastructure are some of the many public services that consume vast amounts of governmental funding. While those activities are certainly costly, tax revenue, as the main source of income for governments, can only be spread so far. With greater demand for funds than supply, governments must make tough choices, and that dilemma is exemplified in Australia, where large cuts are expected in the upcoming budget release for 2015.
【首先，每个政府都有可用资金的限制。一些基本设施，例如教育，福利，医保等等，都需要大量的资金去建设维护。因此，政府需要规划一些政策，来降低对于公共设施的开支。例如Australia，2015年的budget就有可能大大降低。】
Regardless of the limited amount of funds, arts and music are cultural imperatives. Music can often define a generation, like it did with the evolution of Rock and Roll during the 1950s, 60s and 70s. Art can also represent a culture and changing views, much in the same way that it did during the French Revolution. As music and art represent the feelings, beliefs and culture for not only groups of people, but also periods of time, it is necessary that music and art be kept alive.
【尽管资金有限，但是艺术和音乐都是culture imperatives—can define a generation。例如Rock and roll, 例如在French revolution时期。 最后重申，音乐和艺术，需要被keep alive。 】
Personally, I believe minimal amounts should be set aside for music and arts regardless of the current economic environment. Modern governments must decide how best to use funds in a way that allows for the social and economic stability of their nation, but art needs to have some allotted funding. During tough times, resources for arts and music is often reduced first, and rightly so, but they should also receive additional funding during better times.
【这一段写了作者自己的观点—无论经济情况如何，音乐和艺术，都应该得到最基本的经济支持。】
In summary, every government is tasked with deciding how to support the needs of its citizens, butgiven the importance of art and music throughout history, funding for art and music is a categorical imperative.
