A Major Disadvantage of "Instant" Technology
Instant foods, instant communication, faster transportation—all of these recent developments are designed to save time. Ironically, though, instead of making more leisure time available, these developments have contributed to a pace of human affairs that is more rushed than ever before. Write a composition of about 200 words on the following topic:
A Major Disadvantage of "Instant" Technology
You are to write in three parts.
In the first part, state specifically what your opinion is.
In the second part, provide one or two reasons to support your opinion.
In the last part, bring what you have written to a natural conclusion or make a summary.

答案
A Major Disadvantage of "Instant" Technology Ten years ago, letters were outdated by e-mails, which is now old-fashioned by Weibo in China or twitter in the West. The communication is increasingly instant and readily accessible. Yet, a major disadvantage of "instant" technology is the impatience developed along the way. Instant technology rushes things through and leads to the impatience of its users. Overwhelmed by the instantaneous supply of information and immediate exchanges of communication, people can no longer wait for things to happen. A recent study shows that if a webpage takes more than 30 seconds to show up, Internet users tend to quit this webpage and switch to another one. Once the habit is developed, "old habit dies hard". It is very difficult to calm yourself down when you have to spend days to read a novel; when you have to sit quietly in a 2-hour concert; and when you have to stand in the line and wait to be served. In all these scenarios, the impatient ones trained by the instant technology are most likely to feel agitated, restless and even hostile. In conclusion, a major setback of the instant technology is programming people to think that Rome could be built in a day. Without any doubt, the jelly-built "Rome" would fall apart into pieces. Patience is the crucial foundation for both architecture and social fabric.
解析
本题属于“给定观点型”作文。涉及的题材是“社会热点”。该题要求考生对“即时技术的一大缺点”提出个人的意见。按照题目的要求,可谋篇布局如下:
开头:从电子邮件、微博和推特人题,然后转折指出即时技术的一大缺点是让人变得越来越容易急躁。
主体:阐述原因。
1.即时技术讲求“迅时即达”,导致了用户十分容易不耐烦。以网页加载速度为例。
2.举阅读小说、听演唱会和排队三个例子,说明我们如何变得不耐烦。
结尾:重申观点,即时技术的一大缺点是让人们误以为事情是可以一蹴而就的。
