6、析 一、 Part I Writing 1 【正确答案】 The Impact of an Over-reliance on Technology on Education As above picture depicts, a student asks his teacher some questions. However, his teacher suggests asking his search engine. How humorous and preposterous it is! The purpose of the picture is to show us the negati

7、ve effects of an over-reliance on technology on education. Many claim that contemporary technologies are advancing education, as it opens up opportunities for students and teachers to learn, discover and research. But as time goes by, some adverse effects have emerged. In the first place, one of the

8、 major flaws of over-reliance on modern technology is that the more we rely on the search engine, such as Baidu and Google to find answers, the less we inspire our own minds to come up with thoughts or opinions independently. In the second place, the Internet provides us with a world of information

9、at our fingertips. With the simple act of typing a keyword and tapping the search button, a list of thousands of relevant articles pop up in a second. The ease of access allows students and teachers to plagiarize others works by simply clicking, copying and pasting without actually understanding or

10、analysis of the information at all. Therefore, from what has been discussed above, it is safe to conclude that over-reliance on technology on education could be more of a curse than a blessing. 【知识模块】 作文 2 【正确答案】 Failure Is the Mother of Success “Failure is the mother of success“ is a well-known pro

11、verb. It teaches us that failure is not necessarily a bad thing, as long as we can learn from the failing experience and cheer up. My personal experience is a case in point. I entered for the English speech contest last year and was knocked out in the preliminary contest. Since I was not well prepar

12、ed either mentally or academically then, my failure was inevitable. However, from my failing experience I knew I had some problems with my pronunciation and I should learn some strategies of making public speech. So in the following year, following the tapes and imitating the speeches of native spea

13、kers, I made great efforts to improve my pronunciation. This year, I entered for the speech contest again and won the second prize. Without the lesson I learned from last years failure, I can never succeed this year. The truth of the proverb has been proved by countless other facts. So many new thin

14、gs have been invented after the inventors countless experiments. Therefore, we may safely draw the conclusion that failure is the mother of success. Since nobody can avoid failure, why not make failure a stepping-stone to success? 【知识模块】 作文 3 【正确答案】 The Impact of Online Shopping on Offline Retailers

15、 As is shown in the picture, a woman goes into retail shops with a laptop in her hands, saying to the saleswoman that she need to make a comparison with online stores prior to any purchases. What is shown in the picture indicates that online shopping has a great impact on offline retailers. With the

16、 growing accessibility of smart phones and computers, people go shopping online at their fingertips. Nevertheless, online shopping has exerted an unfavorable impact on bricks-and-mortar stores. First and foremost, more and more consumers are using the Internet to search product information before th

17、ey buy in that shopping online can save their money and time. Consequently, offline sales decreased so dramatically that many stores were closed down quickly. Secondly, current online shopping trends and peoples consumption habits are forcing traditional offline retailers to change their marketing s

18、trategies. To attract customers to return to offline shopping, offline retails often launch promotional campaigns and provide customized products or better after-sales service. To sum up, it is not hard to draw a conclusion that online shopping has posed a great challenge to offline retailers. To co

19、mpete with online stores, offline retailers should make changes to the overall shopping experience. 【知识模块】 作文 4 【正确答案】 One False Step Will Make a Great Difference Have you ever heard of an old saying going like that “one false step can make a great difference“? I believe that most of you must know t

20、he similar saying that one false move may lose the game, which indicates that sometimes even a little fault or mistake, can cause greater damage than you could ever imagine. Just as Julius Caesar puts it, important events result from trivial causes in war. Having won a series of victories in contine

21、ntal Europe, extremely arrogant Napoleon started on a dangerous expedition to Russia and he arrayed his troops for battle without taking weather into consideration, which resulted in the defeat of the battle. In addition, for another well-known instance, King Richard fell off the horse during a cruc

22、ial battle, which leaded to his death and finally the defeat of the battle. It was said that the reason why his horse stumbled and fell was that the blacksmith lacked a nail for the horseshoes prior to the battle. In conclusion, little duties neglected bring great downfalls. Therefore, we should pay

23、 attention to details in each thing, including those seemingly trivial, because grave and unforeseen consequences often result from small errors. 【知识模块】 作文 5 【正确答案】 Man and Artificial Intelligence B.F. Skinner once put forward that the real problem is not whether machines think but whether men do. D

24、oes it make sense to you? From my personal perspective, human has the ability to dominate advancing artificial intelligence as long as human beings keep thinking. With the rapid development of science and technology, artificial intelligence is becoming more and more intelligent. Nevertheless, people

25、 are increasingly concerned about whether machines will probably take over the world someday in the future since they have some advantages over humans such as higher efficiency, better adaptability and higher accuracy. But in my opinion the problem comes down to whether man can think. After all, the

26、 great difference between humans and artificial intelligence is that we humans can think and we create machines. Therefore, even if these machines are able to think one day, humans can still control machines via more advanced technologies as long as human beings think constantly. In fact, if we can make use of machines wisely, the intelligent machines can be a blessing forever. Therefore, I would like to conclude by saying that human wisdom is the source of artificial intelligence. As long as human thinking is working, humans are capable of ruling artificial intelligence. 【知识模块】 作文
