问题     Today, people are living in a digital world which brings about a fast evolution of technology in daily life, such as digital photos, digital computers, digital books, etc. Nearly everything can be simplified in an efficient and convenient way. Yet, with the growing dependence on digital technology, some people question the influence of digital age. Thus a debate over whether digital age is making people stupid or smarter arises. What’s your opinion?
    Write a composition of about 200 words on the following topic:
    Digital Age Is Making People Stupid or Smarter?
选项
答案 Digital Age Is Making People Stupid or Smarter? Nowadays, we have stepped into a digital age. Every day, people receive superabundant information and face various new technologies. However, in my view, despite the convenience the digital age brings to us, the growing dependence on digital technology is making people stupid. There are several reasons for my opinion. Firstly, digital technology is chipping away our capacity for concentration and contemplation. For example, when college students write papers, their first choice is to read online. They browse, scan and skim instead of reading in depth, let alone reflecting or remembering. Secondly, the emergence of every new technology will make people less creative and less productive. Without digital technology, we have to think hard by ourselves for new ideas. Yet, in digital age, people are only "creating" in a limited virtual world, which leads to the fact that we are losing the ability to find beauty in nature. Last but not least, as people rely more and more on technology to solve problems, humans’ ability in many aspects will surely deteriorate. For example, college students now mainly use computers to write and gradually forget how to write many Chinese characters. In a word, digital machines in some way replace people’s role to think, but what humans do is only to press a button to let everything go on. Above all, even though digital world may save people’s time and energy, it is as well an era of digital technology making us less creative and more stupid. So we should spend less time on digital devices and when using them, we should use them in a more effective and helpful way.

    思路2：数字时代让人更聪明。
    在数字时代，新知识、新观念、新技术层出不穷，使人们的生活变得更加丰富，与世界的连接更加紧密，人与人之间的距离缩小了，大大地提高了人类交流信息的能力。同时计算机技术的不断提高和广泛使用，大大提高了人类存储、处理、应用信息的能力。
