2016全国卷英语作文题In the era of digitalization, the landscape of communication has been revolutionized by the advent of technology. The traditional methods of interaction, such as face-to-face conversations and handwritten letters, are gradually being replaced by instant messaging, emails, and social media platforms. This essay aims to explore the impact of technology on traditional forms of communication and discuss whether these changes are beneficial or detrimental to society.Firstly, the convenience and speed offered by technological advancements in communication are unparalleled. People can now connect with others across the globe in real-time, which was unimaginable a few decades ago. This has not only facilitated international business and diplomacy but also allowed friends and family to stay in touch, regardless of geographical barriers. The instant nature of communication has also made information dissemination faster and more efficient.However, this shift towards digital communication has also led to a decline in the use of traditional communication methods. Handwritten letters, for instance, are becoming a rarity, and the art of letter writing is at risk of being lost. Face-to-face conversations, while still valued, are often interrupted by the need to check smartphones or respond to digital messages. This can lead to a decrease in thequality of interpersonal relationships, as the non-verbalcues and the emotional depth that come with in-person interactions are often missing in digital exchanges.Moreover, the reliance on technology for communication has raised concerns about privacy and security. With theincreasing amount of personal information being shared online, there is a greater risk of data breaches and identity theft. Additionally, the anonymity that the internet provides can sometimes lead to a lack of accountability and the spread of misinformation.In conclusion, while technology has undoubtedly made communication more efficient and accessible, it is essentialto find a balance that preserves the value of traditional forms of communication. It is crucial to recognize the importance of in-person interactions and the personal touch that comes with handwritten notes. As we continue to embrace technological advancements, we must also ensure that we donot lose the essence of human connection that thesetraditional methods provide.。

2016年11月学位英语真题Part 1 Reading comprehension (30%)Passage 1If the Dakota Access Pipeline(输油管道）is completed, it will carry nearly half a million barrels of oil across four states every day. Energy Transfer Partners (ETP), a Texas-based company behind the $ 3.8 billion project, hopes to finish construction this year. But the Standing ROCK Sioux, an American Indian tribe, is determined to stop the 1,172-mile pipeline from being built. (76) Both sides show no signs of backing down.The Dakota Access Pipeline was announced in 2014. A section of it will run near the Standing Rock Sioux reservation. A reservation is an area of land set aside for American Indians. The tribe says the construction threatens to destroy historical areas and ancient burial sites. They also say the pipeline could pollute their main water source, the Missouri River. In April, the Standing Rock Sioux began a protest against the project. They camped at the construction site. Since then, thousands of people, including people from other American Indian tribes, have traveled to the site to protest.ETP says that the pipeline will have built-in safety measures to protect against oil leaks. Workers will also monitor it remotely, and will be able to close valves(阀门) within three minutes if leaks are detected.American Indians have been staging a nonviolent protest for months. The protest took a turn last week when police were called to keep the peace between protesters and armed security guards hired by the company.(77) Twenty-eight people have been arrested since then and charged with interfering with the pipeline construction.1. Which of the following is the main idea of the passage?A. The Dakota Access Pipeline will create more markets for oil and gas.B. The Dakota Access Pipeline will create many job opportunities.C. American Indians oppose the construction of an oil pipeline.D. American Indians fight for equal voting rights.2. ETP hopes to finish this project in ____________.A. 2016B. 2017C. 2018D. 20193. Why do American Indians protest against the construction of this pipeline?A. Because it will cost up to $3.8 billion.B. Because it threatens the regions’ water supply.C. Because it will make many people lose their jobs.D. Because it will force many people to leave their homes.4. According to the passage, the workers can _______ in case of pipeline leaks.A. report it to the local governmentB. ask people to leave the leak affected areasC. call 911D. close valves5. According to the passage, which of the following statements is NOT TRUE?A. This pipeline will cross four states.B. This pipeline is 1,172 miles long.C.

In Maine, more than 87,500 acres of forest will become government-protected parkland for the first time. In Hawaii, a national monument created by President George W, Bush in 2006 will expand to about 582,578 square miles, four times its current size.Obama has now created or enlarged 26 national monuments during his presidency. As a result, his a dministration says, Obama has protected more of the nation’s land than any other president has. But some residents and officials, in both Maine and Hawaii, object to the plans. (78) They say their local economies depend on the use of these areas.In establishing this monument, Obama took the side of conservationists (自然资源保护者) who want laws to protect wild lands. Creating a national park usually requires the approval of Congress. But a 1906 federal law allows the president to establish national monument on his own.The lands’ new status as a monument means that mining and drilling operations are forbidden there. (79) It may also severely limit activities such as logging, road-building, and hunting. Some of Maine’s politicians who want to protect the state’s logging industries say Obama should not have acted alone. They say Washington should not tell the states how to use their land, especially when people’s jobs are at stake. Maine politician Susan Collins said the president should have listened to Maine lawmakers and residents, as well as the U.S. Congress before making his decision.However, those who support the president’s decision say the establishment of the new monument will lead to new jobs through tourism.6. Which of the following is the best title for the passage?A. Creating new jobsB. Protecting wild animalsC. Stimulating local economiesD. Creating new national monuments7.

The establishment of the new monument will lead to new jobs.Passage 3Toronto’s third City Hall, now known as Old City Hall, was designed by Edward James Lennox and declared open on Sept. 18, 1899.Created to provide more space for city officials, it turned out to be the largest building in the city and the largest city building in North America at the time.Lennox took three years to design the City Hall and it took 11 years to build it. Contemporaries believe that the odd carving(雕刻) above the Queen Street entrance were actually caricatures(漫画) of councilors at the time.Lennox even included himself in the caricatures, on the west side of the central arch(拱门), and left a strange signature in the stonework of the link portions of the building.The third City Hall was originally used as councilors’ offices and legal offices, but it is used only as a courthouse today.When the fourth City Hall (the one we know today) was declared open in 1965, Old City Hall was threatened to be pulled down. It was saved by a group of people called the “Friends of Old City Hall.”The clock tower stands parallel with the middle of Bay Street, rather than with the center of the building. The bells in the tower were not installed until the building opened. Old City Hall was declared a historical site in 1989.(80) The entire structure cost more than $2.5 million to build at the time. This is equal to $53 million today.11. Toronto’s third City Hall came into use in ______.A. the 18th centuryB. the 19th centuryC. the 20th centuryD. the 21st century12.

2016雅思写作精选范⽂之科技类 We have been living in the nuclear age now for over half a century. Since the first atomic bombs were developed, nuclear technology has provided governments with the ability to totally destroy the planet. Yet the technology has been put to positive use as an energy source and in certain areas of medicine. To what extent is nuclear technology a danger to life on Earth? What are the benefits and risks associated with its use? Model Answer: These days, many people are afraid of nuclear technology because of the dangers associated with its use. In my opinion, although it is true that nuclear weapons pose the greatest threat to life, the use of nuclear technology for peaceful purposes also carries some serious risks. Nuclear power stations provide an important source of cheap power for many industrialised nations and some developing countries. However, there is always the danger of radiation leaking from these plants. Even though safety precautions are taken, there have been numerous disasters such as the explosion of a nuclear plant in Russia not long ago. Nuclear technology is even used to help cure some diseases such as cancer. Radiation can be applied to the body to burn away cancerous cells. This is, however, a dangerous procedure, and the application of radiation is almost always painful and not always successful. The most worrying aspect of nuclear technology, though, is its use for military purposes. Enough atomic bombs have already been built to completely destroy the planet, and the real danger is that one day some country will start a war with these weapons. Too many countries now have the technology required to make such bombs, and there is currently much debate about how to control the situation. In conclusion, nuclear technology certainly has positive uses, but is, nonetheless, dangerous. However, it would have been better if it had never been used to create nuclear weapons. If life on Earth is to continue. 2016雅思写作精选范⽂之犯罪类 Without capital punishment (the death penalty) our lives are less secure and crimes of violence increase. Capital punishment in essential to control violence in society. To what extent do you agree or disagree with this opinion? Model Answer: Before talking about the essential role of death penalty, you have to think about the meaning, and the purpose, of any kind of punishment. If you consider that the purpose is to prevent the guilty from being nasty again, you can be seduced by an argumentation in favour of the suppression of capital punishment. But you have to think about another aspect of the problem: a punishment is also useful to impress people, to make them fear the law. In fact, let's take the example of a young misfit, which has grown in a violent atmosphere, influenced by older delinquents, etc ... He lives in the streets, he's got no aim but to survive. This is the kind of person who could possibly kill someone for money, or even for fun ... Why would he fear prison? Life would be easier for him there. In addition, in many cases, when you behave normally, you can benefit from penalty reductions. This young misfit needs to be impressed, he needs to know that the law is a frontier. When you cross it, you can lose your life. That is why capital punishment helps keeping a distance between robbery and murder. If you abolish it, you suppress the difference between these two types of crime, which are completely different. But there is also a limit to define: even if death penalty is unavoidable, it would be a crime to apply it to inadequate cases. If there is no premeditation or past facts which can justify such a punishment, it is far too strict to apply death penalty. That is why the lawmakers have to establish precisely the context in which capital punishment car be pronounced. That is the price to pay to limit violence without using excessive violence.。

2016雅思作文范文Globalization is a phenomenon that has transformed the world in various aspects, including economy, culture, and communication. While it has brought numerous benefits, such as increased economic growth and cultural exchange, it also poses significant challenges that need to be addressed. This essay will discuss both the advantages and disadvantages of globalization.One of the most significant advantages of globalization is the expansion of markets. Businesses can now operate on a global scale, allowing them to access new customers and resources. This not only increases their revenue but also fosters competition, which can lead to better quality products and services. For instance, technology companies can source materials from different countries, reducing costs and improving efficiency.Moreover, globalization has facilitated cultural exchange. People from different parts of the world can share their traditions, languages, and ideas more easily than ever before. This has enriched localcultures and promoted understanding among different societies. For example, the popularity of international cuisine and music has created a more diverse cultural landscape, allowing people to appreciate and learn from each other's heritage.However, globalization also has its downsides. One of the most pressing issues is the widening economic gap between developed and developing countries. While globalization has benefited many, it has also led to job losses in certain industries as companies relocate to countries with cheaper labor. This can result in social unrest and increased poverty in affected areas.Additionally, the cultural homogenization that often accompanies globalization can threaten local identities. As global brands and media dominate, unique cultural practices may be overshadowed or even lost. This can lead to a loss of diversity, as communities adopt a more uniform lifestyle influenced by global trends.In conclusion, globalization is a complex process that brings both opportunities and challenges. While it offers the potential for economic growth andcultural exchange, it also requires careful management to address its negative impacts. Policymakers must work together to ensure that the benefits of globalization are shared equitably, preserving cultural diversity while fostering economic development.中文翻译：全球化是一个在经济、文化和沟通等各个方面转变世界的现象。

To what extent do you agree or disagree?雅思写作大作文参考范文 Now you are benefiting from the use of mobile phone and the Internet as social interaction media, could you imagine what your daily lives would be withoutthese inventions? Some people claim that individuals are gradually losing face-to-face communication skills. Nevertheless, from personal perspective, online communication cannot make people lose the ability of offline communication.Apparently, excessive use of the Internet and mobile phones has been undermining our interpersonal relationship offline. Even during a face-to-face conversation, it is no rare thing that everyone is busy looking at his cellphones, neglecting his friends or families across the dinner table. In addition, it has become incredibly easy to contact each other electronically and share information instantly in social community. Gone are the days when people could only communicate via fixed telephone or writing letters which took several days to reach others. So no one is not crazy about smart phones and computers which boast cutting-edge functions like sharing photos and videos with more friends simultaneously.In spite of the popularity of technological progress mentioned above, never should we turn a blind eye to the irreplaceablity of face-to-face communication. It is common that many schools impart knowledge to students by teaching in classrooms instead of distance education. The same is true of the cooperation among companies, which needs face to faceconversation to acquire trust with each other in advance. Furthermore, although online contact may possess increasing numbers of friends, the permanence of mutual relationships cannot lack face-to-face interactions, which can be confirmed by the example of the closest friends and even loving couples.

2016全国卷英语作文题Dear Editor,I am writing this letter to express my deep concern regarding the recent trend of students neglecting the importance of physical education in favor of academic studies. As a high school student, I have witnessed firsthand how the focus on academic achievements has overshadowed the value of physical fitness.First and foremost, it is universally acknowledged that a sound mind resides in a sound body. Physical education is not only about sports; it is about building a foundation for a healthy lifestyle. It is through physical activities that we can improve our stamina, coordination, and overall well-being.Moreover, engaging in sports and other physical activitiescan significantly reduce stress and anxiety that often accompany the pressures of academic life. It is a well-known fact that regular exercise releases endorphins, which are natural mood elevators. This can help students maintain a positive outlook and enhance their mental health.Additionally, participating in team sports can foster a sense of camaraderie and teamwork, which are essential life skills. It teaches students to work together towards a common goal,to respect one another's strengths and weaknesses, and to communicate effectively.However, I have noticed that many of my peers are foregoing physical education in favor of extra study sessions. This is a concerning trend that needs to be addressed. Schools should place equal emphasis on both academic and physical education. Students should be encouraged to balance their time between studying and engaging in physical activities.In conclusion, I urge the school authorities to take immediate action to ensure that physical education is given its due importance. It is our collective responsibility to nurture well-rounded individuals who excel not only academically but also physically.I look forward to a positive response and a prompt resolution to this matter.Yours sincerely,[Your Name]。

11月26日雅思真题作文2016年11月26日雅思真题作文范文我们用手机和电脑来交流，这个已经非常普遍了，但问题是，用手机和电脑来交流会不会让我们忘记如何面对面交流?下面是店铺整理的雅思英语作文，大家可以参考参考。

2016年11月26日雅思写作考试真题People believe that using mobile phones and computers to communicate. Therefore, people are losing the ability to communicate with each other face to face. To what extent do you agree or disagree?解析11月26日的雅思写作大作文涉及手机和电脑：我们用手机和电脑来交流，这个已经非常普遍了，但问题是，这种交流方式是否已经使我们失去面对面的交流能力呢?很明显，本题的核心是“交流能力”，用手机和电脑来交流会不会让我们忘记如何面对面交流?那么，使用手机和电脑交流在多大程度上让我们失去了面对面的交流能力呢?其实，我们都很熟悉这个话题，比如手机和电脑交流的确提高了我们交流的速度和效率，但问题是交流的速度和效率并不是我们交流时关心的'所有内容，有时候我们需要慢慢聊天，互相了解对方，比如面试或者交流感情，在这些时候，我们在手机上或电脑上交流时习惯的那些方式不仅不能起到好的效果，反而会阻碍交流效果。

与此同时，习惯了远程交流的我们，往往不太注意身边朋友的感受。

于是，我们可以从以下三个方面讨论手机或电脑交流对面对面交流的消极影响：(1)花太多时间，失去与真实人的交流时间(2)手机和电脑交流时不用注意对方的手势和表情，导致我们对声调、表情等非语言因素阅读能力的下降;(3)手机和电脑交流时我们只关注远方的人，忘记与附近的人进行情感交流，导致交流失败。

雅思范文【1】Now you are benefiting from the use of mobile phone and the Internet as social interaction media, could you imagine what your daily lives would be without these inventions? Some people claim that individuals are gradually losing face-to-face communication skills. Nevertheless, from personal perspective, online communication cannot make people lose the ability of offline communication.Apparently, excessive use of the Internet and mobile phones has been undermining our interpersonal relationship offline. Even during a face-to-face conversation, it is no rare thing that everyone is busy looking at his cell phones, neglecting his friends or families across the dinner table. In addition, it has become incredibly easy to contact each other electronically and share information instantly in social community. Gone are the days when people could only communicate via fixed telephone or writing letters which took several days to reach others. So no one is not crazy about smart phones and computers which boast cutting-edge functions like sharing photos and videos with more friends simultaneously.In spite of the popularity of technological progress mentioned above, never should we turn a blind eye to the irreplaceablity of face-to-face communication. It is common that many schools impart knowledge to students by teaching in classrooms instead of distance education. The same is true of the cooperation among companies, which needs face to face conversation to acquire trust with each other in advance. Furthermore, although online contact may possess increasing numbers of friends, the permanence of mutual relationships cannot lack face-to-face interactions, which can be confirmed bythe example of the closest friends and even loving couples. Besides, solving tricky issues are generally more effective and more convenient by surrounding colleagues or friends then by those who live and work in remote places and need online communication.As far as social interaction is concerned, although the cell phone and the Internet have updated the lives of the current generation. People cannot forget how to make offline communication with each other.雅思范文【2】We live in a world where communication through modern technology such as smart phone and computer is so prevalent that it’s hard to go anywhere without seeing someone texting, emailing, writing blogs and tweeting. Of course the use of technology can be good. It provides us with faster, more efficient ways to communicate with others, but it can also harm our ability to communicate with people face to face.Studies have shown that students who rely so heavily on technology have trouble communicating in person because they don’t quite develop all of the necessary skills to hold or even start a face-to-face conversation. For example, students who are constantly texting with abbreviated forms of words such as “LOL” and “OMG” have begun to speak with the same acro nyms. This form of talking is often seen as flighty and uneducated. Furthermore, in the face to face communication, especially the serious ones, such as interviewing someone, or just meeting someone for the first time, we need to catch the subtle tone in their voice, see their expression as it changes from sad to outraged, and look them in the eye to see if they are trustworthy. Yet most of these skills have been lost to our obsession to thesmart phone and computer.In addition, many of us have formed the habit of using the smart phone even when they are with their friends. The unspoken subtext of checking text messages in front of friends is: “Somewhere else there is someone who I care about more than you. I want to know what they have to say more than what you have to say to me now.” In this way, we are devaluing our current situation, the friends and family around us, our surroundings and setting, for something going on elsewhere. This is certainly a complete disrespect for the people we spend time with in person, which may ruin our relationship with them.In summary, though I believe the smart phone and computer are very useful in speeding up our communication with others, they may prevent us from finding enough time to communicate with real people in person and even worse, they may result in ineffectiveness or even failure in our face-to-face interactions with others.雅思范文【3】When it comes to the issue about the influence brought by the pervasive use of technologies, some people argue that devices like mobile phones and computers do not damage the ability to communicate face to face, but I cannot agree with this opinion.To begin with, the presence of mobile devices and computers trap their users in a virtual world. In the past, the public might be accustomed to having parties together where they could interact with peers. However, social platforms on the Internet allows people, especially the young generation, to talk with anyone they want, because of which individuals may not attend offline activities. Naturally, people will be nervous to converse withothers face to face without regular exercise.In addition, the rise of cellphone and social websites will also dampen the enthusiasm for face-to-face communication. Currently, what do people do when they have a meal together?A lot of people, although they sit closely, attempt to post their pictures online and they hardly talk to people near them. Current technology renders it possible for users to talk to others with great distances, but it is also a double-edge sword since users may prefer to chat online rather than talk directly.But the refuting voice may come from opponents that computers and mobile phones facilitate face-to-face communication with the function of video chat. However, they may ignore some deficiencies of video chat. It is true that people could see each other on the screen, but the fact is that people cannot observe and interpret body language of others. In face-to-face conversation, gestures and emotions could be observed clearly while online communication makes it too difficult to identify the real emotions of a person if s/he intends to hide his/her feeling.In sum, the capacity of face-to-face communication does drop, considering that the obsession with mobile phones and computers not only lowers the frequency of face-to-face communication but also makes people lose passion for talking face to face.【2016年11月26日雅思真题作文范文】。

英语考试作文26日雅思写作考试真题范文Full-time university students should spend a lot of time in studying, but it is essential to be involved in other activities.To what extend do you agree or disagree?思路分析：本文是一篇教育类的文章，题目中给出了一种观点，学生在专注学业的同时还应该重视课外活动，问同不同意这种观点。

笔者赞成了这种观点，并在首段表示了赞成，接下来主体段分别从两方面去分析。

第一个主体段先论证了努力学习专业知识的必要性：人类已经步入知识经济，只有努力学习专业知识，才能面对将来工作中面临的专业问题。

文中用了举例和对比论证，如果一个医学院的毕业生没有在学校好好学习专业课，那么他将来在给病人的治疗过程中会面临重重困难。

相反如果，一个大学生专业知识学的好，那么他在就业市场中会更受欢迎，因为这不仅代表了他专业知识过硬，还显示他学习能力也很棒，有潜力。

第二个主体段从参加课外活动的角度去分析，现在职场中面临的情况越来越复杂，只是专业只是好的话会显得捉襟见肘，所以应该去通过课外活动锻炼一下自己的其他能力，比如沟通能力，团队合作能力和领导力等。

这样，他们将来找到好工作的可能性会更大。

最后一段，总结全文，学生需要好好学习专业知识，但参加课外活动也是一件不容忽视的事情。

参考范文：Nowadays, college students tend to spare more time and energy on their academic study and at the same time lay less emphasis on some extracurricular activities. From my point of view, this is a positive trend.Firstly, as human beings have entered an era of knowledge-based economy, the more college students learn, the better they prepare for the future. [j1] The specialized knowledge they learn in university will play a key role in their future career. For instance, for a student majoring in medical science, if he does not apply himself to his major, he will meet a number of problems during the treatment and consequently, it is unlikely for him to become a prestigious doctor in the future. By contrast, regarding to students excellent academic attainment, they are more popular in the workplace since their conspicuous transcript is proof of not only their hard work but also their potential in learning, which is extremely significant for future work.On the other hand, excellent school performance is far from enough for university graduates, considering the increasingly competitive job market. The situation in real tasks has become more and more complicated, which is difficult for graduates to handle if they are weak in other abilities. [j2] In this case, taking part in some activities during college is a perfect approach for them to understand the complexity in real work and to enhance capacities like communication skills, teamwork spirit and leadership ability. Students engaging in activities tend to have an edge over others who only concentrate on study and they are more likely to find decent jobs after graduation.In conclusion, I believe in order to become well-rounded individuals, academic study is needed but participating in some extracurricular activities cannot be ignored.288 words。

2016全国卷英语作文题In the era of digitalization, the landscape of communication has been revolutionized by the advent of technology. The traditional methods of interaction, such as face-to-face conversations and handwritten letters, are gradually being replaced by instant messaging, emails, and social media platforms. This essay aims to explore the impact of technology on traditional forms of communication and discuss whether these changes are beneficial or detrimental to society.Firstly, the convenience and speed offered by technological advancements in communication are unparalleled. People can now connect with others across the globe in real-time, which was unimaginable a few decades ago. This has not only facilitated international business and diplomacy but also allowed friends and family to stay in touch, regardless of geographical barriers. The instant nature of communication has also made information dissemination faster and more efficient.However, this shift towards digital communication has also led to a decline in the use of traditional communication methods. Handwritten letters, for instance, are becoming a rarity, and the art of letter writing is at risk of being lost. Face-to-face conversations, while still valued, are often interrupted by the need to check smartphones or respond to digital messages. This can lead to a decrease in thequality of interpersonal relationships, as the non-verbalcues and the emotional depth that come with in-person interactions are often missing in digital exchanges.Moreover, the reliance on technology for communication has raised concerns about privacy and security. With theincreasing amount of personal information being shared online, there is a greater risk of data breaches and identity theft. Additionally, the anonymity that the internet provides can sometimes lead to a lack of accountability and the spread of misinformation.In conclusion, while technology has undoubtedly made communication more efficient and accessible, it is essentialto find a balance that preserves the value of traditional forms of communication. It is crucial to recognize the importance of in-person interactions and the personal touch that comes with handwritten notes. As we continue to embrace technological advancements, we must also ensure that we donot lose the essence of human connection that thesetraditional methods provide.。
