1.People today can perform the everyday tasks such as shopping, banking or eve n business transactions, without meeting others face-to-face. What effects wil l this phenomenon have on individuals and society as a whole?The interactivity of the Internet and the mobile phone has enabled a multitude of people to purchase their desired items or pay their phone bills without step ping out of their offices or homes. And many others can even register for tests or sign contracts online. This sweeping trend of going about everyday business in the virtual world has triggered a marked decline in face-to-face contact be tween people. Thus, it is essential that we identify the implication of this tr end on both individuals and society as a whole.The impact of this phenomenon on individuals is profound. First, Individual eff iciency in business transaction and banking will be greatly enhanced. And those who dread shopping are spared the chore of browsing around in shops. Secondly, the increasingly sedentary lifestyle will engender a higher incidence of ailme nt. More overweight people means more patients suffering from cardiovascular di seases such as vein hardening, diabetes and hypertension. Thirdly, the absence of face-to-face contact may induce distrust between business partners. An inher ent sense of disbelief is apt to ruin a telecommunicated negotiation when negot iators can only see videos of each other transmitted via the Internet.This trend also has widespread repercussions on society as a whole. In the firs t place, the burgeoning e-commerce will, doubtless, boost corporate efficiency immeasurably. And higher efficiency means more earnings and less costs for busi nesses. In the second place, online fraud, be it banking or trading, retail or wholesale, is sure to abound in the cyberspace. We must search for practicable and effectual means of curbing it. In the third place, the proliferation of e-c ommerce may exacerbate man's overdependence on technology. And that can render our lives un-spontaneous and our tempo of life too fast and furious.In sum, there is no denying that the virtual world is exerting influence on our lives in various ways. It is a key that we take advantage of the upside of thi s trend and in the meantime mitigate its downside as much as possible.2.Many people work at home using modern technology today. Some people think on ly workers benefit from it, not the employers. To what extend do you agree or disagree?Progressions in telecommunications technology have enabled the practice of tele commuting. Which means worker can conduct their assigned tasks without have to commute back and forth to work regularly. This emerging working pattern has pro found implication on our work and life. Some assert that only workers, not the employers, can be beneficiaries of telecommuting. Personally, I think their vie w has both merit and demerit.Granted, telecommuting can bring about numerous benefits to the employees. To b egin with, employees do not have to live with the constant fear that their boss may look over their shoulder, as their work is supervised from far away and in more laisse fair fashions. There is no need for them to get super well-groomedand they can "slack off" a bit when the work-induced stress is too intense to bear. Furthermore, telecommuting can spare workers the everyday chore of travel ing back and forth to work. And this, in turn, helps them to cut down on costs of bus fare, fuel or extravagant work clothes.Yet on the other hand, it would be erroneous if we fail to acknowledge that emp loyers can profit from telecommuting, too. In the first place, less constraint, less peer pressure at work, no office politics and more flexible schedules can boost employee morale and enhance productivity. Empirical evidence abounds in this respect that more occupational freedom can, more often than not, lead to s tronger vocational motivation and more innovative ideas. In the second place, t elecommuting is an economical option for the employer. A telecommuting work for ce can help business-owners substantially curtail the overhead costs, such as t he costs of rent and utilities. Thirdly, the fact that workers can telecommute via the worldwide communications network allows employer to recruit people from remote locations or even half way around the globe. This markedly augments the labor pool of businesses.To conclude, I concede that telecommuting can bring about a variety of boons to employees. However, it would be unjustifiable if we overlooked the advantages telecommuting can spawn on the employers' side. On balance, I am convinced that we should strive to seek out the most effective approach to exploit this win-w in situation.3.We can get knowledge from news. But some people think we should not trust the journalists. What do you think are the important qualities that a journalist should have？In the information era, news plays a crucial role in our work, leisure as well as family life. It informs us about the current world affairs and affords us kn owledge, entertainment and conversation pieces. On the other hand, the credibil ity of news and journalists is a highly controversial issue. Hence, it is essen tial that we determine the most important qualities of a trustworthy journalist .First and foremost, a trustworthy journalist must be an individual with honesty and integrity.In this day and age, there are a host of temptations to lure the reporter into fabricating stories, when confronted with such temptations, only professionals with high moral values can adhere to their code of ethics. Hence , the courage to always pursue and expose the truths about newsworthy events is really crucial to a journalist.Secondly, determination and tenacity distinguish fine journalists from mediocre ones.In today's world, regarded as the conscience of society, a great many jou rnalists find it increasingly difficult for them to come up with factual news s tories. It is not unusual that a journalist receives severe warnings or even de ath threats from gang members or business tycoons when they set out to trace cr imes and business scandals. Hence, it takes immense determination and persevera nce to be a genuinely dependable journalist.Lastly, a trustworthy journalist must be able to present keen observations on t he covered events.To produce truly instructive coverage, a reporter must posses s the capacity to analyze and synthesize the information he/she gathers. This r equires penetrating insights and outstanding analytical skills. Only when an in dividual meets such requirements can he/she create in-depth coverage of events.To conclude, to be a reliable source of information, a journalist must possess self-discipline, tenacity and insights. Otherwise, his professionalism would be questionable indeed.4.some people claim that the disadvantages of the car are more than the advant ages,do you agree or disagree? 汽车的利弊范文1the birth of cars have made an enormous change to our life.in the past,we trave l from one place to another only by foot, nowadays, cars can do it .its goes wi thout saying that the invention of cars bring great benefit to all of us.but a s proverb goes:no garden without weeds.car is not exception.owing a car has a lot of advantages.for one thing,car provide us the most conve nient way of transportation.we can get around freely without spending a lot of time.emotionally,i always found driving is so exciting.for another,its the co mfortable to drive a car.In winter.drivers always can stay warm and dry even i n rainy whether,in addition,drivers are usually safe in their cars when they ar e out at night.Cars bring the human merits,their side-effects gradually come to the surface.fi rstly,to run a car need a lot of oil,which is getting less and less.the increas ing number of cars contribute the lacking of energy.secondly,as more and more cars are used,the traffic especially in big cities is getting heaver and heav ier,which lead to the serious social problem--traffic jam.in addition,the incre asing numbers of cars ,which exhaust sent a huge quantities of carbon monoxide into atmosphere.it make the air of cities unbreathable,it strip people contac t with fresh air.therefore,the new energy should be explored to replace the oil so that our envi ronmental pollution can be avoided .and the strick law should be issued to kee p the numbers of cars under control.thus,our heavier traffic can be solved!范文2As traffic problems become more and more serious in many cities of developed an d developing countries, their governments have to try hard and loads of money a nd energy have been spent to deal with them.Firstly, it is not efficient for the commuters to use their private cars to an d back from their workplaces. Occasionally we can see they have to sit on the w heels wasting time and fuel in a heavy traffic jam. At the same time, through b urning the fossil fuels, green house gas CO2, CO1, acid rain gas SO2, fumes an d dusts are being released into the atmosphere, all of which heavily overload t he environment. Thirdly, with the increase of private cars, the road traffic ac cidents are also rise dramatically. For example, in a city with 5000 cars, ther e will be at least 250 accidents happening everyday, which also burden the publ ic healthy services.On the contrary, expected public traffic may be an ideal solution to these prob lems. For example city buses and railways are widely used or being constructed by many cities. People can take buses easily, which can be found every 10 min utes or less in the peak time. Actually, Nottingham Transport Company is buildi ng its own light railway in the city, which is announced by the speak man of th e company, “It will be completed in the next year, the tickets will be very co mpetitive and at the same time the travel will be very safe and comfortable.”On the other hand, public traffic had its own disadvantages. Usually it cannot provide door-to-door service. It is inconvenient to go shopping by public veh icles. Sometimes you must wait a long time for the train. And quite a lot of pe ople prefer to enjoy driving.In conclusion, developing the public traffic is a useful approach to deal with these difficulties. One possible way, if not the best, is to taxi private car s heavily and use these revenues to provide citizens cheaper public traffic ser vices.范文3With the development of science and technology, the cars have already become th e important component in our daily life gradually. Cars make our life convenien t and swift. However, too many cars have caused very serious social problems. S ome people claim that the disadvantages of car are more than the advantages. I doubt whether the argument can bear much analysis.Since one century [ago], the auto industry has [been] developed at full speed w orldwide, and has brought the enormous progresses to our life. For example, th e car is the most convenient tool of transportation. We can [be] on and off dut y by car every day, we can go to travel by car on the vacation, we can utilize the cars to deal with some emergency too. The car [is] playing an important r ole in our daily life. They make our rhythm of life faster and faster, make ou r business become more and more efficient.On the other hand, the development of the automobile has brought a lot of infan t industry to people, Give people countless employment opportunities too. Such as, manufacturing industry, repairing industry and maintaining industry. We a re enjoying the convenience that the cars bring to us; at the same time we can utilize the auto industry to support ourselves.However, we can not ignore tha t too many cars cause enormous social problems, for example, traffic jam, air p ollution, traffic accident, to which we have to find a solution.In a word, the cars have brought enormous change to our life; the advantages ar e far more than the disadvantages. We should recognize the merit of the cars, a nd do our best to solve the problems. If so, our life will be brighter.5.the computer are widely used in education and some people think teacher are not play important role in the classroom . to what extend do you agree?(agre e/disagree)电脑&老师范文1Computers are widely used in education and some people think teachers arenot playing an important role in classroom. To what extent do you agree or disagree?The 21st century is the period of information, in which computers will play an important role in every area of our lives. Recently, computer assisted education has become more and more popular in primary schools, highschools and colleges. The computer’s multimedia abilities make the classes lively and interesting. As a result, some people have said that teachers are no longer playing a significant role in classroom.I can hardly agree with the m.First, it is the teacher who creates the software used in class. For example, the software may be an outline of the teacher’s lecture.If you listen to som e lectures, you will find that the lectures contain far more information than the multimedia software includes. While showing the class, most teachers will expand the knowledge extent, especially adding some latest discoveries and breakthroughs. So, the computer is just an assistant, which makes the class more vivid and clear. Teachers and students are the main part of a class. Second, computers cannot organize activities in class in place of teachers. For example, we often do some group work during classes, and it is the teachers who set the groups and control the time. After checking our homework, teachers will understand what the real weakness of students is,and adjust their classes to improve their teaching, while computers cannot. Moreover,the interaction between students and teachers is very useful.During the asking and answering of questions, students pose problems and find answers more clearly. But computers, now, have not that intelligence.All in all, although computer technology is developing very quickly and computers can solve more and more problems without people, teachers still play an important role in class. And I insist that, no matter how the technology develops, teachers will be in the front of the classroom forever范文2The computer is widely used in education，and some people think teachers do not play important roles in the classroom. To what extend do you agree ordisagree?In this period of communication,computer has been used in all kinds of fields widely, and plays a particular role in our lives. Especially computer has become more and more important in educational field, therefore dozens of people considered teachers could be replaced computers that will go with the current of the times. The above point is certainly wrong; this essay will outl ine three reasons.The main reason is that people’s brain better than computer. Firstly, people design all kinds of computer’s programs. Secondly, computer doesn’t have log istic ideation. Computer only can defend on that designer inputted computer’s programs to judge a question’s right or wrong. In other words,computer can’t defend on thinking that computer independently analyzes aquestion’s right or wrong. In case, designer inputted programs that are wrong. Computer output the result that also will be wrong. If this kind of problem happened in classroom, students would be infused plenty of wrong information.Another reason is that computer’s programs designed software of educationthat could be amended difficultly.If software of education of bugs were foun d, commonly these of problems couldn’t be solved in the classroom. The softwar e was amended that means total of program were corrected, not onlyparts of program were inserted or amended usually.Last but not the least reason is computer is mechanical,it couldn’t be suited all kinds of students and different demands. As students’ intellect is differ ent, same of software couldn’t base on every status of student to set a perfec t project.In conclusion, computers couldn’t instead of the position of teachers in the classroom, however computer is an absolutely good helper for teacher范文3In this IT age, computers are widely used in the classroom in order to enrich t he methods of teaching. This phenomenon gives some the illusion that the thing teaching students is no longer the teacher but a computer. Personally, I disa gree with this opinion.As another machines, computer doesn’t enable to control itself. Though compute rs are capable of learning from their mistakes and improving on their performan ce, they need details instructions from human being in order to be able to oper ate. They can never, as it were lead independent lives, no mention teaching stu dents. In case a computer lacks the control of a teacher, there is no differenc e between a computer and waste.Not only this, but computers, unlike a teacher, can’t solve a variety of new p roblems. Everything is developing in today’s society, including education. Fo r example, a student suddenly asks a creative question that the computer isn’t programmed for, it can do nothing, while teacher can explain clearly though a bundant teaching experience.Last but not least, the computer can’t communicate with students from emotio n. Such as an eyesight or gesture of teacher can transfer his or her idea and f eeling to students. In this way, students can feel more human touch in the clas s. In comparison, the computer is too dry and dusty to understand.All in all, no matter how nice a computer is, it can’t take the place of teach er. Of course, I don’t mean that computer is useless. In contrary, I believe i t will become the most powerful assistants to teacher in further.范文4Computer, the most exciting and significant invention in 20 century, will resha pe our lives and our world. As a result, some people proclaim that computers sh ould be involved into our classroom, and replace the roles of human teachers. H owever, I cannot agree with their point of view.Admittedly, as the useful tools, computers can become the optimum assistants fo r human teachers in the classroom. To beginning, vivid pictures shown on scree n can motivate students’ interest and curiosity dramatically. Moreover, the co mbination of computers and Internet can provide children the abundant informati on. Although computers enjoy considerable merits, they cannot compare with huma n teachers for two main reasons.Among countless factors which influence my inclination, there is a most conspic uous one: computers are not as qualified as human teachers in academic field s. As we all know, students can get the final result of a mathematic question u nder the help of computers, however, they are still confused on the whole compu ting process. By contrast, our human teachers’ performance is much better in t hose cases. They not only can teach students how to analyze and compute the que stion, but also can remind them what are the possible errors that they may mee t. Thus, human teachers are more adequate than computers in academic aspect.The second advantage of human teachers is they can guide students to deal with some psychological problems that they meet in schools. In China, sometimes, t eachers even burden many responsibilities that students’ parents have. For exa mple, as for the student with rebellious spirit, the important duty for teacher s is to prevent the student from campus violence, even crime. Obviously, comput ers cannot do that.In summary, from what has been discussed above, we may safely arrive at the con clusion that the positions of human teachers are unshakable, and computers cann ot take the places of them.范文5with the development of new technology and science,computer are widely used in education.therefore,some people think we don’t need teachers anymore.i total ly disagree with the above point.there is no denying that the computer bring great benefit to people and are of great help to puter can be programmed to simple digits of questio n,as the students answer these digits,their theoretical knowledge can be reinfo rced.however,in practice and learning of complex questions,computer can never replac e the human brain or surpass the human puter only can tell you r the final correct answer.but it cant provide students opportunity to think ov er it,which limited their creativity.teaching itself is an art rather than a me chanical activity.therefore,teachers function can not be neglected.puter only can do work according to the procedure formulated previou sly.they can not answer all question in different way.teachers,however,can teac h students according their attitudes.some students who have better ability to a ccept knowledge,under teachers' guidance,can be save time to gain other knowled ge.secondly,facing the vivid delivery from teachers,students can be improved thei r motivation and concentration.the effective communication operated by teacher s not only can help students understand the knowledge,teachers also can teach s tudents how to be a valuable people,which cant be done by computer.in addition,various teaching methods can help student absorb the knowledge rapi dly.when students meet with the thorny question,teachers not only can explain i t in different way,they also can show them the important deductive process.therefore,i would say teacher is the good compensation for flexibility lacking in the computer.i totally disagree with view that we don’t need teachers an ymore!范文6Computer, as the most powerful tool in 21 century, is widely used in education areas. Whether computers can instead of teachers become a controversial issu e. From my point, I don’t think computers can take the place of teachers. First and foremost, computer cannot communicate with students. Every human bein g has feeling. Teachers are not only teaching students knowledge but also showing their loves to students when they are teaching. How to have a conversation w ith others and how to take care of others can be learned from teachers. For exa mple, teacher can take you to the hospital when you are sick. In comparison, co mputers cannot likely to it.Secondly, computers cannot help students when the get confused. Asking teacher s is the best way to do when students get any quires. However, computers do no t have this function. Study is a two-way process, teachers can excite student s’ imaginations and fire their creations.Last but not least, computers cannot organize teaching activities instead of te achers. Take England as an example, students need to do a lot of practical expe riments, especially in physics and chemistry. When they do these experiments, s tudents usually work together as a group and discuss with teachers. Team work i s a very important part to shape students’ personalities.From what has been discussed above, we might safely say that computers can neve r take the place of teachers. We should always remember that human beings are t he host of technology and computer is a machine no matter how clever it is!范文7With more and more extensive use of computers in education, some people claim t hat the importance attached to teachers has been jeopardized. Therefore, comput ers will replace teachers in the classroom. However, it seems quite clear to m e that learning from teachers is the most important way that cannot be substitu ted for students.Naturally, some people maintain that computer should instead of the old way o f education. They hold that the strong function of the computer offers a new mo de of education, which is more interesting, more vivid and more acceptable by c hildren. The students will not face to the serious teachers and calm classes an y more, which are replaced by a brand-new world offered by the Internet. In add ition, this can decrease the investment on the foundational education and save the human resources and material resources.As an assistant, computers do help teachers with their work, but they can neve r replace the important role of a real teacher. The main functions of any compu ter are storage and calculation. It cannot think on its own anyway. All the tea ching data stored in computers are the essence of teaching experience generaliz ed by many teachers during their work. Hence, to assist education, what a compu ter can do is just to repeat the contents summarized by real teachers.In addition, each student has different talents and different defects, and acco rdingly, they may come across various problems during their study. Computer pro grammer designing the software, however, cannot predict these problems. Therefo re, a single computer can never solve these problems without a teacher’s guida nceFurthermore, if the significance of teacher has been weakened, the number of te achers may be decreased, that is to say, many teachers may be laid-off. If suc h a case comes to reality, series of social problems will break out, such as th e drop of working opportunity which will surely make the burden of whole societ y become heavier and heavier.In conclusion, although computer-aided-education has spread widely, teachers st ill play s crucial part in the classroom, which cannot and will not be replace d by computer.范文8as the most important invention in the 21 century,computers have windspread in the world,and the use of it has become the necessity of various spheres both in our work and in our daily life. although computers are also greatly utiliz ed in the education field,teachers are still playing a crucial part on the plat form. personally,i believe that teachers should not be replaced by computers du e to the following reasons.being the architect of human being's moral, teachers shoulder the responsibili ties of passing knowledge to students as well as shaping them to be real men wi th good qualities. students may learn some certain knowledge from computers whi ch are cold and senseless, but good qualities can only be taught by teachers.at the same time,computers might not give detailed and understandable elaborati on of complicated theories. after judging whether the answers are right or wron g computers fail to tell them why they make such mistakes. the problems can onl y be dealt with by teachers.in addition,some elementary academic exchanges,such as discussion and associati on,cannot be organized by computers.nevertheless, teachers make up the deficie ncy.by this means,students' learning enthusiasm is greatly activated.above all,computers bring about many significant revolutions in the education f ield,but teachers are still the hosts of the classroom.we should always bear i n mind that men are the owner of technology and no matter how intelligent the c omputers are,they are merely man-made machines.范文9Along with the mass use of computer technology in education circles, we are del ighted to witness the uncountable conveniences be brought by computer. Some peo ple even argue that teacher will not be important in classroom any more. Is thi s reasonable? Personal speaking, I oppose holding such a ridiculous conclusion.In the first place, the feature of teaching defines teachers as an essential pa rt in education. It is well known that teaching is a process of mutual-communic ation: firstly, teachers impart/initiate knowledge or ideas to students, then s tudents should promptly transfer their feedback to teachers, moreover, teacher s will give students the final interpretation according to their specific requi rement. Besides, teachers also can (teach students in accordance of their aptit ude). In contrast, what computers can do is merely to display materials which h ave already stored in their EMS memory or mechanically execute operator’s comm ands. We actually can not image what our education will being if computers subs titute teachers totally.As to another reason, it seems that teacher’s role as a supervisor is more an d more overt. Computer is indeed a controversy, it not only can be an efficien t education assistant, but also can become an addiction which includes too muc h violent and (pornographic propaganda). Youngsters do not mature fully in psyc hology, therefore, without teachers' supervision, many children would spend hou rs playing computer games or surfing unhealthy websites, which are regarded as a waste of valuable time and intelligence, instead of trying to have a good c ommand of knowledge and skills.We never deny that computers are absolutely an available education implement s, furthermore, the combination of teacher and computer technology will greatl y improve our education quality. However, from all of the grounds of argument m entioned above, we can safely draw a conclusion that teacher will not be replac ed by computer in the classroom.范文10Computers nowadays are more and more widely used in education. Hence, some peop le claim that teachers are no longer playing important roles in the classroo m. I completely agree with this statement. Although teacher may be more emotion al than computers, the later actually far outdoes in educating students, for th e following three reasons.First, it is an undoubted fact that computer are more likely to provide suffici ent information to students. Neither a well trained graduate from education ins titute nor an experienced teacher can offer more knowledge than an advanced com puter.Human brain is more suitable for creative activities, but not in conveyin g information. As a result of the rapid development in technology, the compute r’s capacity of containing information will become much stronger.Second, computers are more efficient in educating students than teachers, not o nly because they will merely make mistakes, but also due to that the will not feel worn out after a long time of work. It goes without saying that teacher s are some times complained to transfer mistaken messages to students. And the latter, lack of enough related knowledge, finally become the victims of suc。
