In many instances, online shopping is now replacing store shopping. Some people view this as

s positive development; other people view it as a negative development. Although the benefit of

online

shopping

are

certainly

understandable,

it

is

my

feeling

that

it

will

be

a

negative

development if many retail stores are forced to close due to competition from online shopping

sources.

The advantage of online shopping are obvious. People can read reviews on those items and

can compare prices from various sources on the internet. Without even leaving their home, they

can order and receive online products, often at prices which are similar or even lower than the

prices they would receive in a retail store. So, the benefits of online shopping are undeniable.

That

being

said,

retail

stores

also

offer

advantages

that

are

undeniable.

Retail

stores

allow

people

to

touch,

feel,

and

maybe

even

demonstrate

the

product,

in

front

of

customers.

For

example, if a person is interested in purchasing a smartphone works, a salesperson can walk

him through. Also, ordering groceries online means that customers will not be able to touch or

feel those fruits, as they would if they purchased those items in the supermarket. Moreover, not

everyone is patient enough to wait for their orders for a few days whereas they can receive

these items immediately in a real store.

There is no doubt as to why online shopping is becoming more and more popular. However,

retail shops offer benefits which are not available with online shopping. It remains to be seen

how much online shopping will affect people's retail shopping options, but I think people will be

better served if both options remain available.

Some people think that with the increasing use of mobile phones and computers, people

lose the ability to communicate face to face. To what extent do you agree or disagree?

立场：同意

1.

用手机和电脑交流，很多时候 无法像面对面交流，可以观察对方的肢体语言、表情

2.

通过电脑沟通，某种程度也降低了沟通的愉悦

With the increase use of mobile phones and computers, some people think that many people

are losing their ability to communicate face to face. I strongly agree with this premise.

No one can doubt the benefit of face to face communication. Since the evolution of man, face-

to-face

communication

has

always

been

our

main

means

of

communication.

Face-to-face

communication

allows

us

to

the

person

we

are

talking

to. We

can

see

how

they

are

receiving

what

we

are

telling

them

by

viewing

their

body

language,

by

watching

their

facial

expressions, or by hearing the tone of their voice.

Many of these observations are not possible when we communicate with someone via mobile

phone or computer. If we are talking to someone on the phone or chatting with someone on the

computer, we may be able to hear them, but we may not able to tell their body language. If we

are texting someone or sending them an e-mail, we will not be able to see them or hear them.

Face-to-face communication is a more complete form of communication than phone or computer

communication. It

is my feeling that face-to-face communication can be more satisfying and

more rewarding.

Although it would be foolish to not take advantage of the avenues of communication offered by

today's technology, it is unfortunate that many people now have less face- to-face basis as they

rely instead on technology whenever possible.

Nowadays, more and more jobs and tasks are done by machines which involved hard

physical work. Do the positive effects of this trend outweigh the negative effects?

借助机器是为了提高产出和效率

Nowadays, more and more physical jobs and tasks which were previously performed by people

are now being performed by machines. I disagree with the view that the negative effects of this

trend outweigh the positive effects.

Some people maintain that the wide use of machines in various

industries is threatening the

future of workers. Sooner or later, those humans will lose their jobs and their ability to support

their families because the machines have taken over their responsibilities.

On the other hand, it should be noted that even though machines may be replacing the jobs of

some humans', humans will still be needed to operate those machines. Yes, an employee who
