Apps New devices 学习类 Think about the pros and cons of New Technology 生活娱乐 Among the new apps I’ve been using recently, an AI study assistant impresses me most. Whenever I come across confusing grammar points, it offers clear explanations and related exercises. Convenient as it is, it is not wise to rely entirely on it. Real thinking and communication with teachers should never be replaced by technology. 2 Lead in What is a driverless car? A driverless car is an automobile that has an autopilot (自动驾驶) system allowing it to move safely from one place to another without any help from a human driver. 3 Lead in Watch a video about driverless cars and share your feelings From my perspective, driverless cars represent a huge breakthrough in modern technology, which could free us from tiring driving work. Impressive as they appear in the video, their hidden safety risks should never be overlooked. 4 Lead in Should we welcome such new technology or fight against it? 5 Fast reading Read the text and then decide whether the statements are true (T) or false (F). 1.

Q2: How does the writer develop these paragraphs? On the one hand, there are many different groups of people around the world who live happily in the absence of new technology. Probably the most well known are the Amish, a group of Christians living in rural America. They do not own or drive cars, watch TV, or use the Internet. They have lived mainly as farmers since the 18th century, and they will probably be living the same way in the distant future. They advocate a simple life with an emphasis on hard work, family, and community. They think that is better than caring about luxuries or following the lives of the rich and famous. It could even be argued that the Amish’s quality of life is better since they live in and appreciate the natural environment rather than living in large, polluted cities. On the other hand, new technology has provided people everywhere with many benefits over the years. For example, the latest weather-tracking computer programmes give people lots of warnings about potential natural disasters, which saves many lives. Moreover, the Internet has made it possible for friends and family to keep in touch easily even if they are on opposite sides of the world. It has also made finding opportunities in life much easier, as it allows people to make larger networks of friends through using social media.

Of course, when new technology changes the way we live, it can be a scary prospect. Nevertheless, I will always look on the positive side of change and accept it rather than resist it. Q: What is the author’s opinion? A. He is in favor of new technology. B. He is opposed to new technology. 10 Reading for details Read the paragraphs 2-4 and complete the table below.

It has also made finding opportunities much easier, as it allows people to make larger networks of friends through using social media. For example, AI can make it harder for people to find jobs.

With the development of artificial intelligence, a new type of companion robot has been invented, which can communicate like humans. On the one hand, some people say that such robots are of great benefit to us. For example, if an old man lives alone, a companion robot can give him a lot of comfort. In addition, the robot can monitor the elderly person’s health condition, and if there are potential dangers, not only will he get in touch with the person’s family but he will also automatically give out a warning. However, on the other hand, some people oppose the use of the technology. They argue that some people use the technology to avoid social contact. Hence, the gap between people is more difficult to bridge. Personally, there is no doubt that companion robots are good for people in a sense. Nevertheless, what we should provide is real companionship instead of cold robots.
