今天給大家分享一道獨立寫作題目，2021.1.20考過，2021.3.29托福家庭版也考到了這道題，有一定難度哦~題目比較長，審題一定要仔細。垃圾食品會讓人不健康，有的人認為應該給這些垃圾食品征稅使其更貴，這樣會減少人們的購買，并且為未來醫療保健費用籌集資金。而其他人認為不應該征稅。你怎么看？
Foods and drinks that contain high levels of sugar, salt, or fats have harmful health effects when consumed in great quantities. Some people believe that governments should make these unhealthy foods and drinks more expensive by taxing them. The tax (money paid to the government) would discourage consumption of unhealthy foods and drinks and raise money for future health-care costs. Other people believe that consumers buying foods and drinks should not pay any additional tax, even if the foods or drinks are unhealthy. Which viewpoint do you agree with, and why?
選不應該征稅：
分論點1：效果不佳，可能會讓許多人更不健康
（e.g. 有的窮人因為稅收高了，會選擇更不健康的食物來減少開支；e.g. 有的人已經習慣于吃不健康的食物，哪怕更貴他們也還是會吃并且花更多錢，反而減少了他們在健康食物和醫療上的花費，導致更不健康）
分論點2：會增加人們的經濟負擔，尤其是對低收入者。
分論點3：政府收稅來”raise money for future health-care cost”，政府可能會因為依賴這筆稅收而不能有效制止人們這種不健康飲食行為。
