　　1.Do you agree or disagree with the following statement: People should not spend a lot of time on communicating by technologies, such as through social media or with text messages.

　　The younger generation are perhaps the tech-savviest in history, spending several hours on their smartphones, laptops and tablets, exchanging messages and updating on their social media accounts. Some have even abandoned the face-to-face communication and opted for a virtual social life. In my opinion, people should limit their time spent on these technological devices.Admittedly, modern technologies allow us to lead a more efficient and colorful life. With a smartphone or a tablet, we can reach out to our friends or complete strangers regardless of geographical barriers. Via several touches on the screen, an appointment can be made, and the whereabouts of the celebrities can be known. The outside world has never been so close to us. It is no wonder that some would sacrifice hours of time which should have been used to work or study for a indulgence in the virtual world, giving out and receiving likes, reading and making comments. However, things would never be that simple. As the technology creeps into our life, we are more or less becoming the slaves of them.Too much exposure to the virtual world affects our communication in real life. One look at the way a person chats online or texts on the phone and we can realize how different it is from our daily talks. Communication online involves no changes in intonation or facial expression, and certainly does not follow strictly the grammatical rules. Instead, emoji and memes have been created as a substitution for facial expression. Also, acronyms and abbreviations have been employed to squeeze space for more contents in the 140-character limit. When these people return to real life, they find it impossible to read long articles, or to compose proper essays, or even, to talk at ease with others outside their own circle of friends.Moreover, social network fails to achieve what it has claimed to be. Rather than cheering us up, it makes us more depressed. Normally, a girl spends hours doing make-ups, takes hundreds of selfies, picks several good ones, and retouches them for dozens of times, before posting the best-looking one on her social media accounts. Then comes the anxious waiting for likes and comments from her friends, which, if not enough, will certainly dampen her mood for a whole day. Also, rather than keeping us well-informed, social network makes us more arrogant and biased. We do not agree to disagree—we simply aim for a good quarrel with those holding a different view. We do not look for voices from the other party—we simply turn a blind eye to them and stick to what we believe to be true.In conclusion, long time exposure to modern technologies, and social media and text messages in particular, will more or less have a negative effect on our social life and mental health, so it seems we have to limit our time spent on these technologies.

　　2.Some people think that giving students time during a class to discuss ideas with each other is a good way to help students learn; others think giving students time for discussion is ineffective or a waste of time. Which idea do you agree with, and why?"

　　As is known to all, the education in China is exam-oriented. Everything students learn in class is for passing the exams. There are few open topics for students to discuss in Chinese class. It is believed by both Chinese teachers and students that discussion in class is an ineffective way to learn. I totally agree with it.To begin with, Chinese students have got used to the way they are educated. Most students are required to listen carefully to the teachers and take as many note as possible in the class from primary school to senior high school. It will be too much to ask for students to accept class discussion within a short period of time. It is possible that students might not know what to say in the first place. When topics were given in class, it would be possible that the whole class would be silent. It is not only a waste of time, but also embarrassing.In addition, the effectiveness of class discussion depends on the students’ personality. Unlike students from western countries like the United States, Chinese students are introverted who are reluctant to express their ideas in front of their fellow classmates. Some students might be afraid of speaking in public. They are worried if they do something wrong, it will be quite humiliating. Some students are just not interested in sharing although they have plenty of amazing ideas in mind.Moreover, in order to conduct successful class discussion, the teacher plays the most crucial role. It is quite tough for the teacher to supervise the process. He is supposed to be capable of dealing with various challenges. He has to know how to start the topic when the whole class remains silent. Also he has to know how to engage as many students as possible. He has to know what to do when the discussion is absolutely off the topic.In sum, class discussion might be an effective teaching method in other countries. However, it is not the case in China. It takes time for Chinese students to get familiar with it. It might be good when students become more extraverted. The qualification of the teacher matters the most in carrying out a successful class discussion.

　　3.Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? Technology designed to make our life simpler actually makes our life more complicated.

　　It cannot be denied that technology enables people to live a better and more convenient life today. People have been enjoying high-tech products such as smart phones, car navigation system, and laptops, to name a few. However, it does not mean that those high-tech tools make our life easier now than in the past. In fact, technology makes our life far more complicated today as illustrated in the following parts.High-tech tools can save lots of labor work, but sometimes they are not as “smart” as we expect. I would like to use car navigation system as an example. In the past, people could only refer to printed maps to find ways to their destinations. Nowadays, car navigation system can automatically find the right path for us. It seems that car navigation system is far more convenient than printed maps. However, in order to install the system, we need to download the digital maps before ahead and make sure that our destinations are recognizable. If the system fails to recognize the destination, it sometimes does not stop navigating, but lead us to somewhere else. Once I was driving from California to a Native American Reservation in Arizona, the car navigation failed to find the right path and led me to a small town that I had never heard of. Fortunately, I found a gas station and the employees there showed me the correct way. My own experience shows that high-tech products might not be always as reliable as we expect.Another example of how technology has made our life more complicated is online shopping. Nowadays, more and more people choose to shop clothes online, so to save time and efforts. Admittedly, shopping online is convenient to some extent compared with going to a shopping mall, because we could stay at home and check out with several clicks. All we need to do then is to wait until our new clothes are delivered to us. However, many people had terrible shopping experience in that the colors and designs of those clothes are not exactly the same as they are described online. Moreover, the size might not fit us, which is not expected either. In this case, we need to follow a complicated returning process, completing forms needed for returning and going to the local express service to send the clothes back. The process of returning is extremely daunting, which usually takes a long time for us to get our money back.Based on the above discussion, it could be concluded that sometimes technology is not as convenient as we expect. Should we just refuse to use high-tech products? I do not think so. I believe that modern technology is still developing, and it will definitely make our life more and more comfortable and convenient in the future.

　　Task 1

　　1.Sometimes people behave impolitely in public. Describe a time when an impolite behavior annoyed you. Explain why you were annoyed.

　　I’d like to talk about an incident took place in the library last month. I was trying to finish my paper for my finance class. It was the most difficult paper I have ever written. This paper had bugged me for over an entire week. I had a habit of doing my assignments in the library due to its quiet environment. It is easy for me to concentrate. Unfortunately, the guy sitting next to me kept making telephone calls in a loud voice. Everybody, including me in the library was disturbed by his loud and rude voice. I asked him to keep quiet. He was reluctant to lower his voice although many people had already starred at him.

　　2.An environmental group is planning to organize an activity to help protect the environment. What activity do you suggest and why?

　　It is a fact that the earth is suffering from severe environmental problems. Measures should be taken to protect our environment. I’d like to suggest an activity. I would invite many people who want to contribute to protecting the environment to go cycling around the west lake. Each bicycle would have a flag with some slogans concerning environment protection on it. There are two reasons why I would do this. Firstly, cycling is an eco-friendly activity. And it’s beneficial to our health. If more people choose to go to work or go to school by bicycle, the environment will be much better. Besides, West Lake is the most popular tourist attraction in HZ. It would be really easy to draw a lot of people’s attention.

　　3.If a high school is planning to organize an after-school activity for its students, what kind of activity would you recommend and why?

　　I strongly recommend that the high school should organize basketball matches for the students. The most important reason is that basketball matches will help students build up their stamina, which brings great benefits to their study and the activities will certainly encourage more students to take part in sports rather than spend all day long on their academic study, which leads to a poor health condition and low efficiency in study. Second, Basketball matches are able to help students learn cooperation and competition, which are essential for them when they get started to work.

　　4.Talk about an object, tool, or piece of equipment that you depend on in your daily life. Explain how it makes your life easier.

　　I depend on my Smartphone in my daily life and it has made my life a lot easier because all the information and apps I need for work and social life are in my Smartphone. For example, I don’t use an alarm clock in the morning because there’s an app for that in my phone. Once I leave my apartment, I use the GPS in my phone to navigate the route with the least traffic to my office. If I’m stuck in the traffic，I can start checking for important emails from clients or colleagues in my car or even make some phone calls to get some problems solved before I，m actually in the office. After work, I use instant messengers on my phone to connect with friends. Without my Smartphone, everything in life would be time consuming and complicated.
