文章写作内容决定文章逻辑结构

 

有选择有侧重的逻辑结构：

第一段：

讨论对象引入句(1~2)+观点表明句

Thanks to technological advances, today many daily tasks can be accomplished without us meeting each other face to face. Generally, I tend to believe it leads to many desirable results.

technological advances：点名话题

谓语动词的同义替换：perform—accomplish

can be accomplished：注意主动、被动语态的转换

 

It is easy to notice that today many daily tasks can be accomplished without us meeting each other faceto face. While some people are worried that it might bring about several problems, I tend to think otherwise.

It is quite common for people to ... = It is not uncommon that...

 

第二段：

立论段：

It is evident that fulfilling some tasks over modern technologies such as the Internet and other computer networks具象思维 is highly efficient.中心句

在日常生活中使用网络很高效。

 

In the past, if people had the need to do shopping, they had to go to the shopping mall; but today, allcan be done with the click of a mouse and并列句 the goods will be delivered home, even at a lower price. 对比论证

Also, we used to need to go to the bank and wait for a desperately long line if we wanted to make a transaction from one bank account to another; instead, now we may comfortably make use of the self-banking service at home.

Actually, almost all banks and financial organizations are well-connected to the Internet, which promotes the development of international trade and world economy dramatically.

 

Thus, obviously, the efficiency of life has been improved significantly due to the technological advances.总结句

 

第三段：

驳论段/让步段:

However, that is not to say that lack of face-to-face communication brings about no problems.极端不成立法则 One of the biggest concerns is safety.

With the increasing virus threats and well-trained hackers, online deals are well exposed to all kinds of risks and losses, for example, the wide-spread problem of identity theft具象思维.

So when making the most of充分利用 the desirable changes brought about by technology, we should be aware of its potential downsides and并列谓语 find a way to minimise the negative impacts.

 

第四段:

Overall, there are both favourable and unfavourable effects on individuals and society if everyday tasks are performed without the need of seeing each other. But I am quite optimistic about itsfuture, and并列句 I think people and countries alike will benefit from it on a new level soon.

（二）

Nowadays technology is increasingly being used to monitor what people are saying and doing (for example through cell phone tracking and security cameras). In many cases, people being monitored are unaware that this is happening. Do you think the advantages of this development outweigh the disadvantages?

影响类题型

be doing + be done =be being done 现在进行被动

be aware of/that 意识到、知晓

be unaware of/that

写作核心：具象思维

 

批判性中立结构

首段：

In recent years, advances in technology have allowed governments, the police and privately owned companies to keep the public under constant surveillance具象思维. In many major cities and towns, security cameras are recording the movements of ordinary citizens. This essay will analyze the pros and cons of it.

 

主体段：

Certainly there are several benefits. In areas where there is a high crime rate, the use of security cameras may act as a deterrent to criminals: if they see a camera, they may think twice about breaking into abuilding or stealing a car. If a crime is carried out, then a camera may provide useful evidence. The same is true for a cell phone; for example, the police sometimes rely on tracing the phone calls to locate the suspects or victims.具象思维

 

On the other hand, there are a number of concerns. In countries where human rights are ignored, the use of security cameras or listening devices may be harmful to society.具象思维People should be able to hold meetings and express opinions without their privacy being invaded. Nowadays, many people upload personal information and photographs onto social networking websites but they often do not realize how easy it is for other people to view this information or for the site owners to use the data or photographs for their own financial gain.具象思维

invade one's privacy 侵犯隐私

 

尾段：

It seems inevitable that there will be more and more ways to monitor society in the future. However, it is our responsibility to evaluate new technology and decide whether it will do more harm than good.
