Whats your opinion? 雅思（写作）模拟试卷 147答案与解析 1 【正确答案】 Recently, the issue regarding the future of traditional technology and methods in the midst of the rapid development of science and technology has been in the limelight

3、. Some people argue that the traditional technology and methods are bound to die out, hence the futility of maintaining them. On the other hand, some people firmly believe that the traditional technology and method will survive the technological revolution. As far as I am concerned, the latter opini

4、on carries more weight. For one thing, being traditional is quite different from being out of date or obsolete. Tradition is what we inherit from our forefathers, and its being handed down from generation to generation itself proves its capacity to survive. Only those things that have weathered ardu

5、ous trials time after time can be called tradition; otherwise, they are something obsolete. For another, the survival of traditional technology and methods does not mean that they linger on in a steadily worsening condition. On the contrary, their existence tends to propel and even accelerate the de

6、velopment of science and technology. If we compare the development of science and technology to the construction of a modern building, the traditional technology and methods can be likened to the foundation. Without a solid foundation, the building is destined to collapse. In addition, the developme

7、nt of science and technology originates in traditional technology and methods. Thus, development itself does not exclude tradition, but requires its assistance. In a word, development and technological renovation can only be accomplished on the basis of traditional technology and methods. From what

8、has been discussed above, we may safely arrive at the conclusion that traditional technology and methods are far from obsolete, and are bound to contribute more to the development of science and technology. 2 【正确答案】 With the development of society, customs and habits have made a lot of changes. For

9、example, Chinese people used to have the habit of calling on each other or exchanging presents during festivals, but with the modern conveniences and facilities such as the telephone and the computer and peoples greater concern for privacy, they would choose to communicate by telephone or e-mail now

10、. Are these changes good or bad? People who oppose the changes hold that some long-cherished precious traditions are lost with the changes of customs and habits such as the above-mentioned examples. Despite the conveniences, modern technology also brings side effects. Modern people are more and more

11、 isolated and indifferent to each other. Furthermore, these people are worried that changes of customs and habits imply the betrayal of our forefathers, our past, and our history. They also point out that people are morally deteriorating with the loss of tradition. Material gains are much valued tha

12、n spiritual ones, which may eventually give rise to a national crisis. Indeed, the changes of customs and habits have many disadvantages, but in the meantime there exist advantages to these changes. Firstly, some customs and habits came into being only because of peoples superstition and ignorance.

13、This kind of customs has brought more harm than good to the society and the nation. The customs of giving lucky money in the Spring Festival and holding large dinner parties at wedding lay a heavy economic burden on people. Secondly, many old-fashioned customs do not respect human rights and distort

In conclusion, I think it is a good phenomenon that customs and habits have changed. New customs and habits can

15、make peoples communication more efficient, and they allow people to communicate with each other in an equal, natural and simple manner. New customs and habits have created more opportunities for women such as education, employment and management. With the advance of society, all people will enjoy a better life.
