Passage 1
Have you ever forgotten to switch off the TV or computer?
In the not-too-distant future, we will be living in smart homes integrating computers into the structure of the building
itself .
With advanced
technology every day for
automatic control of just
about everything, the future home will use intelligent sensors to automatically enter an energyefficient mode after you leave.
Having known your daily routine and preferences, your smart home will prepare everything,
such as air conditioner for you the instant you get home each evening.
In addition, your smart home will be monitoring your health by sending a warning and keeping constant track of your health for you if there is something abnormal or if you have a critical illness early on, such as cancer, which can potentially save your life.
For example, if a water pipe starts leaking, or if there is a short in the electrical wiring, your smart home will detect it, providing you with the relevant information.
This smart technology is not a fantasy.
Many of these new innovations are already available and being used in some homes.
In this sense, the home of tomorrow is already the home of today.

Passage 2
An accident has brought about the discussion—should we oppose and cease accepting new technology, such as artificial intelligence?
Different people have different opinions about it.
On the one hand, there are many people living happily in
the absence of new technology around the world without any
crime using new technology.
The Amish, a group of Christians living in rural America, not using high technology, advocate a simple life with an emphasis on hard work and appreciate the natural environment.
On the other hand, newtechnology has provided people everywhere with many benefits over the years.
For example, the Internet has made it possible for friends and family to keep in touch easily and it has also made finding opportunities in life much easier.
Personally, I have benefited quite a lot from technological advances.
Of course, when new technology changes the way we live, it can be a scary prospect.
Sometimes it is hard to predict the future life or forecast our occupation.
Nevertheless, I will always look on the positive side of change and accept it rather than resist it

范文赏析
Smart Homes, Yes or No
With the development of the technology, smart homes become more and more popular. Recently, our class have had a heated discussion — should we support or oppose having a smart home? Different students have different opinions about it.On the one hand, 60% of the students advocate it. They think smart homes will not only make it more convenient and much easier for us to live a life, but also can bring us a more comfortable life. What’s more, we can make good use of the new resources, such as solar energy.
On the other hand, 40% of them are opposed to it, because smart homes will cost us a lot of money. Some of us even lose some basic living skills. What’s worse, because of the Internet used in the smart homes, they will leak our personal information, bringing about some security problems.
In my opinion, smart homes have more advantages over disadvantages. Hence, although there are risks and different voices, it is worth saying yes to it.
