4、oo much time spent on the computer every day. This is partly because sitting in front of a screen for too long can be damaging to both the eyes and the physical posture of a young child, regardless of what they are using the computer for. However, the main concern is about the type of computer activ
5、ities that attract children. These are often electronic games that tend to be very intense and rather violent. The player is usually the hero of the game and too much exposure can encourage children to be self-centred and insensitive to others. Even when children use a computer for other purposes, s
6、uch as getting information or emailing friends, it is no substitute for human interaction. Spending time with other children and sharing non-virtual experiences is an important part of a childs development that cannot be provided by a computer. In spite of this, the obvious benefits of computer skil
7、ls for young children cannot be denied. Their adult world will be changing constantly in terms of technology and the Internet is the key to all the knowledge and information available in the world today. Therefore it is important that children learn at an early age to use the equipment enthusiastica
8、lly and with confidence, as they will need these skills throughout their studies and working lives. I think the main point is to make sure that young children do not overuse computers. Parents must ensure that their children learn to enjoy other kinds of activity and not simply sit at home, learning
9、 to live in a virtual world. 【知识模块】 写作 2 【正确答案】 In recent years, there has been a debate about whether the use of modern technology increases or decreases peoples creativity. I believe that modern technology has generally allowed people to become more creative. I believe this firstly because technol
10、ogical developments allow people to produce further developments. The development of the telegraph and the telephone led to the development of radio and the mobile phone. Radio led many people to become creative-finding new uses for this medium and allowing people to share music. Since the mobile ph
11、one developed, people have been looking at ways of using it. We can now send text messages around the world and even use our mobile phones to pay for things. This new-found creativity is not only limited to scientists and technicians. Computers allow people to express their creativity by writing boo
12、ks and articles to be published online. Other people have discovered their artistic sides though using relatively easy-to-use computer programmes such as Photoshop. We can even see this creativity in computer games. Games such as “World of Warcraft“ enable people to develop online characters using t
13、heir creativity to accomplish tasks. However, there are people who use modern technology in ways that do not develop creativity. It is widely reported that students in many countries are using the Internet to plagiarise to use other peoples work and present it as their own. It is often claimed that
14、the ease with which music and films can be downloaded for free may dissuade producers from making them. Other people do not use computers in creative ways. For example, they may play games that do not enhance creativity, knowledge, or skills. Having said that, it is not necessary that we do everythi
15、ng for reasons other than simple pleasure. 【知识模块】 写作 3 【正确答案】 I think that education is useless to tackle the problem of people eating too much junk food, but many people disagree. In this essay, I will look at some of the points presented by both sides. Many argue that through education people migh
16、t realise the adverse effects of eating junk food. As a result, they will reject or eat less junk food. I dont eliminate the possibility that some may give up junk food once they are informed that junk food will do great harm to their health. However, in my opinion, people tend to falsely conclude t
17、hat eating less fast food will make one healthy. It is not eating junk food that makes people unhealthy, but eating too little of other foods such as vegetables and fruit that counts. In other words, people who reject fast food completely and just eat vegetables or fruit will be unhealthy, as they f
18、ollow an unvaried diet. It is worth mentioning that there are many factors involved in peoples preference for junk food, even among those who are educated. For example, fast food labelled as junk food does not demand much waiting time and can be taken out, which caters perfectly to those who cannot
19、afford the time to eat slowly in our fast-paced society. These people have no choice but to suck it up. Moreover, junk food undeniably tastes so delicious that it lures the masses. Even though people are taught to stay away from junk food, they cannot be prohibited from choosing the food they favor
20、without policy implementation. To sum up, education is not the answer to the problem of people eating too much junk food. It is because junk food is adapted to our fast-paced society and human beings taste preferences that it has become popular, and this has nothing to do with education. 【知识模块】 写作 4
21、 【正确答案】 According to one recent survey, the number of private cars in Beijing has increased by 20% to 2 million and it is difficult to foresee any downward trend. This ever-swelling car ownership in many big cities as well as countryside is causing numerous problems. Most people often point to the s
22、evere traffic congestion in metropolises like Beijing and Shanghai. The soaring number of cars is not matched by a corresponding increase in the road systems with better design. So during the rush hours in the morning and afternoon, main roads of these big cities are crowded with various cars, somet
23、imes becoming super parking areas. These jams are very costly in terms of both time and money and terribly reduce the efficiency of the city. However, the most serious problem of unlimited car use is the pollution caused. Cars emit various waste gases and dusts, mainly CO, and C02. These greenhouse
24、gases are greatly contributing to the global warming. According to a research by European scientists, carbon emissions from vehicles rose by 25% in the last decade, far outpacing the increase rate of other sources. If we do not control vehicle use or endeavor to make it greener, the outcome awaiting
25、 us would be rather gloomy or even disastrous. As a result, I am of the opinion that car use should be reasonably discouraged. For example, the government can increase the tax on cars with large emissions and subsidize the public transportation to lower their prices and improve their condition, thus
26、 encouraging increasingly more people to choose public transports such as tubes or buses. Of course, we are not advocating a total ban of car use, which is actually unrealistic and unjustifiable. Personally, I think that a policy like the “odd-even“ traffic restriction employed by Beijing during the Olympic Games may serve as a good strategy. 【知识模块】 写作
