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?
这个题并非首次出现在雅思考试中,它是2014年10月11日的原题重现。2013年、2014年的写作原题最近频繁再现江湖,烤鸭们似乎应该重视一下,平时练习可多写2014、2013年的真题。比如11月19日的作文“独居的好处和坏处”是2014年9月27日的原题;11月5日的作文“现在人是越来越独立还是越来越相互依靠”是2013年8月24日的原题,等等。
手机类的话题当然不只涉及面对面交流,还包括其他议题。比如:在某些地方使用手机与抽烟一样不受人欢迎,那么是否应该像禁止抽烟一样禁止使用手机(2015年2月14日);有些人认为,用手机和电脑交流对人的写作和阅读能力有消极影响(2015年3月28日);手机和电脑让写信的人少了,你认为写信很重要吗(2012年11月24日);手机和互联网在人们交流中扮演的角色越来越重要,这是好还是坏(2012年8月9日),等等。
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。
参考范文:
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 acronyms. 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 the smart 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.
