1、You should spend about 40 minutes on this task.Present a written argument to an educated reader with no specialist knowledge of the following topic.In the last 20 years there have been significant developments in the field of information technology (IT), for example the World Wide Web and communicat

2、ion by email. However, future developments in IT are likely to have more negative effects than positive.To what extent do you agree with this view?Give reasons for your answer and include any relevant examples from your own experience or knowledge.You should write at least 250 words.The last two dec

3、ades have seen enormous changes in the way peoples lives are affected by IT, with many advances in this field. However, while these technological advances have brought many benefits to the world, it can be argued that future IT developments will produce more negative effects than positive ones.To be

4、gin, email has made communication, especially abroad, much simpler and faster, resulting in numerous benefits for commerce and business. Furthermore, the World Wide Web means that information on every conceivable subject is now available to us. For example, people can access news, medical advice, on

5、line education courses and much more via the internet. It is evident that these improvements have made life far easier and more convenient for large numbers of people and will continue to do so for decades to come.Nevertheless, the effects of this new technology have not all been beneficial. For exa

6、mple, many people feel that the widespread use of email is destroying traditional forms of communication such as letter writing, telephone and face-to-face conversation. This could result in a decline in peoples basic ability to socialize and interact with each other on a day-to-day basis.In additio

7、n, the large size of the Web has meant that it is nearly impossible to regulate and control. This has led to many concerns regarding children accessing unsuitable websites and viruses. Unfortunately, this kind of problem might even get worse in the future at least until more regulated systems are se

8、t up.In conclusion, developments in IT have brought many benefits, yet I believe developments relating to new technology in the future are likely to produce many negative effects that must be addressed if we are to avoid damaging impacts to individuals and society.Foreign visitors should pay more th

9、an local visitors for cultural and historical attractions. To what extent do you agree or disagree with this opinion?It is sometimes argued that tourists from overseas should be charged more than local residents to visit important sites and monuments. I completely disagree with this idea.The argumen

10、t in favour of higher prices for foreign tourists would be that cultural or historical attractions often depend on state subsidies to keep them going, which means that the resident population already pays money to these sites through the tax system. However, I believe this to be a very shortsighted

11、view. Foreign tourists contribute to the economy of the host country with the money they spend on a wide range of goods and services, including food, souvenirs, modation and travel. The governments and inhabitants of every country should be happy to subsidise important tourist sites and encourage pe

12、ople from the rest of the world to visit them.If travellers realised that they would have to pay more to visit historical and cultural attractions in a particular nation, they would perhaps decide not to go to that country on holiday. To take the UK as an example, the tourism industry and many relat

13、ed jobs rely on visitors coming to the country to see places like Windsor Castle or Saint Pauls Cathedral. These two sites charge the same price regardless of nationality, and this helps to promote the nations cultural heritage. If overseas tourists stopped coming due to higher prices, there would b

14、e a risk of insufficient funding for the maintenance of these important buildings.In conclusion, I believe that every effort should be made to attract tourists from overseas, and it would be counterproductive to make them pay more than local residents.(269 words, band 9)機(jī)器翻譯很難識(shí)別暗喻，雙關(guān)和諷刺，這會(huì)對(duì)普通讀者造成困擾。Machinetranslationishavingahardtimeidentifyingmetaphors,punsandirony,whichcansometimespresentproblemstoordinaryreadersaswell.他會(huì)說3種語言，所以在這個(gè)公司獲得了一份工作。He can speak three languages, so he lands a job in this company.Fluency in three languages qual
