1. Although many people think that the luxuries and conveniences of contemporary life are entirely harmless, they in fact, prevent people from developing into truly strong and independent individuals.
2. Public figures such as actors, politicians, and athletes should expect people to be interested in their private lives. When they seek a public role, they should expect that they will lose at least some of their privacy.
3. Creating an appealing image has become more important in contemporary society than is the reality or truth behind that image.
4. The concept of ‘individual responsibility’ is a necessary fiction. Although societies must hold individuals accountable for their own actions, people’s behavior is largely determined by forces not of their own making.
5. People work more productively in teams than individually. Teamwork requires cooperation, which motivates people much more than individual competition does.
6. In any realm of life-whether academic, social, business, or political—the only way to succeed is to take a practical, rather than an idealistic, point of vies. Pragmatic behavior guarantees survival, whereas idealistic views tend to be superceded by simpler, more immediate options.
7. It is primarily through our identification with social groups that we define ourselves.
8. Only through mistakes can there be discovery or progress.
9. Most people recognize the benefits of individuality, but the fact is that personal economic success requires conformity.
10. People who are the most deeply committed to an idea or policy are the most critical of it.
11. No amount of information can eliminate prejudice because prejudice is rooted in emotion, not reason.
12. The most essential quality of an effective leader is the ability to remain consistently committed in particular principles and objectives. Any leader who is quickly and easily influenced by shifts in popular opinion will accomplish little.
13. Sometimes imagination is a more valuable asset than experience. People who lack experience are free to imagine what is possible and thus can approach a task without constraints of established habits and attitudes.
14. In any given field, the leading voices come from people who are motivated not by conviction but by the desire to present opinions and ideas that differ from those held by the majority.
15. It is always an individual who is the impetus for innovation; the details may be worked out by a team, but true innovation results from the enterprise and unique perception of an individual.
16. Success, whether academic or professional, involves an ability to survive in a new environment and--, eventually, --to change it.
17. Most people choose a career on the basis of such pragmatic considerations as the needs of the economy, the relative ease of finding a job, and the salary they can expect to make. Hardly anyone is free to choose a career based on his or her natural talents or interest in a particular kind of work.
18. If a goal is worthy, then any means taken to attain it is justifiable.
19. People often look for similarities, even between very different things, and even when it is unhelpful or harmful to do so. Instead, a thing should be considered on its own terms, we should avoid the tendency to compare it to something else.
20. People are mistaken when they assume that the problems they confront are more complex and challenging than the problems, faced by their predecessors. Thus illusion is eventually dispelled with increased knowledge and experience.
21. Moderation in all things is ill-considered advice. Rather, one should say, ‘Moderations is most things,’ since many areas of human concern require or at least profit from intense focus.
22. Most people are taught that loyalty is a virtue. But loyalty—whether to one’s friends, to one’s school or place of employment, or to any institution—is all too often a destructive rather than a positive force.
延伸阅读：GRE写作审题及思路解析
新GRE考试的两篇作文难度不小，考生需要分别在三十分钟内完成两篇文章：一篇Argue一篇Issue,其中Argue的字数在450左右，Issue的字数在550-650之间。除了字数以外，还有审题也是比较考验考G人的。
接下来出国留学网小编来举个例子说说如何审题：
"The concept of ’individual responsibility’ is a necessary fiction. Although societies must hold individuals accountable for their own actions， people’s behavior is largely determined by forces not of their own making."
题目字面意思是：“个人责任的概念是一种有必要的虚构。尽管必须让个人对其行为负责，但是人们的行为很大程度上是由外力而不是自己决定的。”
我们可以通过拆句子来分析审题
论述个人责任的，采取了反对的观点。这个题目重点放在了对于行为的责任上面。题目分为两句，后句对于前句基本上是起到支持的作用。
第一句：关键词：responsibility，necessary，fiction. Responsibility，而necessary fiction是什么意思呢?
Necessary：adj.
of an inevitable nature : INESCAPABLE b (1) : logically unavoidable (2) : that cannot be denied without contradiction c : determined or produced by the previous condition of things d : COMPULSORY.
Fiction：n.
1: something invented by the imagination or feigned; specifically: an invented story.
2: an assumption of a possibility as a fact irrespective of the question of its truth.
3: the action of feigning or of creating with the imagination.
归纳起来可以理解为：“由想象创造的或假的”;或者“真相的对于可能性的假设，都是可以的。”
那么必要的虚构为什么有必要，又为什么是虚构呢?我们可以在文章开头做出解释。
第二句：关键词：actions，behavior，determine，forces从前半句的must看出了对于necessary的解释，论述了让个人对自己行为负责对于社会是一种必要，那么是否是一种必要呢?题目这里用了Although，显然对于这种想法是不支持的，但是一个绝对的must还是肯定了这种现象的存在。我们如果论述necessary的时候要注意到这几点。而且要注意对于actions或者是后半句的behavior的定义，个人的行为是什么样的行为?把这个问题具体化。
后半句论述了fiction的问题，因为人们的行为并不是自己决定的，而是由外力决定的，那么，显然个人对于行为的责任就没有责任了，而个人责任的概念就是一种fiction了。这里还是有三个问题：①怎么算是determine，如果定义为心理精神的角度是不是就可以被个人自己控制，如果说是一种方向范围的限制的话，是否就很可能是外界的环境压力等来控制的呢?②forces是什么?是外界的社会?是政府的控制?是法规的限定?还是别的因素呢?③还有就是largely的问题，同样给我们留出了余地，很大程度就是不是全部，那么个人在一些情况下还是可以负责的，那么是否个人责任就不是fiction了呢?论述的时候同样要注意到这几点。
说完审题，我们来聊聊写作思路：
相对来说，这篇比较好写一点。明确两个问题就可以，一个是，个人责任(对于自己行为的责任)存在不存在(是不是fiction)?另一个是，对于个人责任的要求是否必要(necessary)?
如果选择赞同的观点，可以否定necessary，说明个人责任不是必要的，而支持fiction，个人责任不存在(个人不能决定自己的行为，不能对自己的行为负责)。后面可以接让步，对于largely论述，个人某些时候是可以决定自己行为的，但是主要是由社会等外力决定的。
如果选择反对的观点，可以赞同necessary，说明个人责任对于社会是必要的，而反对fiction，个人责任是存在的(个人能够决定自己的行为，能够对自己的行为负责)。后面可以接让步，社会对于个人行为也是有影响的，但是个人可以自己来决定自己的行为。
