后面的refutation写的比较口语化,我的word有问题木有拼写检查,可能会有一点语法问题,先发给两位参考一下吧 Supporting arguement:
1. According to Oxford Dictionary and Longman Dictionary, “Love” is a strong feeling of
affection and sexual attraction for someone. “True love” is a person whom one loves. And according to the Wiktionary “True love” means the form of romantic affection that is considered pure and wholly positive, not just based on feelings of lust. It is a profound and caring attraction towards someone. This kind of feeling cannot be developed in a short time. It is a progressive process from “know each other”, “like each other” and “love each other”. It is impossible for one to find the true love if he/she always stands out of a relationship and refuses to give a try.

2. According to the statistics on All-China Women’s Federation, the average age at marriage of
Chinese male is 27.8, while women’s average age at marriage is 26.2. Although many people are inclined to marry later these days, or even choose to become a celibatarian, most people still observe the tradition to get married at a certain age. Those people who remain single at a mature age will be called leftovers in today’s society. This puts great mental pressure on elderly men and women. They will also suffer from the pressure from their family members, especially for those who come from one-child family. In a word, people who decide to remain single as long as they do not find their true love will have to endure more pains, and it is definitely not better for their mental health and social status.
3. Additionally, it is also not better for the development of our society if large amount of people
choose to remain single unless they find their true love. This will worsen the situation of lack of labor force and gender imbalance. (这个我没找到什么source,你们要是喜欢的话,可以说是according to the statistics on Ministry of Human Resources and Social Security of the People’s Republic of China, 中华人民共和国人力资源和社会保障部)
Possible refutation
1. Waste time, hurt people, unfair—at least you gave it a try. You tried to find the true love from
this relationship, even though you and the other half failed, that doesn’t mean it is a waste of time. Also you and your boyfriend/girlfriend gained experience from this relationship, and it will help you get ready for the next relationship to truly find your true love.
2. Dating, seeing people will lead to true love—for one thing, dating culture is not commen in
China and many countries. It is an usual phenomenon in America(刘瑜), but traditional countries like China are not accustomed to this. For another, true love is a profound affection which is formed from long-term contact. Is it really possible that one can find the true love simply by seeing one another? No!
3. Possible to be true love means find the true love—If you find out that someone is possible to be your true love through several datings, you still have to be in a relationship with him/her to find out whether he/she is really your true love. This is different from “possible”.
