The primary goal of technological advancement should be to increase people's efficiency so that everyone has more leisure time.
With development of technology, people's efficiency is increased(increasing). And the speaker claims that the main goal of technological advancement is to make more leisure time for people ultimately. As far as I am concerned, the development of technology does improve the efficiency of human beings, but no more leisure time is produced and people today is even much busier.
On the one hand, with(the) help of new high technology, people's productivity improve greatly thus people can do more things than before within the same time limitation. To illustrate this point, here(there are) are some convincing examples. First, after the invention of personal computer (PC), one can deal with a great amount of documentaries within a short period of time. Especially with the software Microsoft office, one can edit text document, make a PowerPoint file and a complicated diagram. Such jobs might cost people lots of time during the past while today, after several minutes, one can get what he/she wants. Second, another example is that the usage of E-mail. People send E-mail with many topics--commerce, greetings, questions and answers, and just common communications--and such a type of mail is widely used the entire world since it just costs a few seconds on the way sending. It is much faster than the written-letter and does save lots of precious time. Undoubtedly, people are getting more and more efficient due to the development of new high technology.
On the other hand, although people's efficiency is increased, there is not more leisure time for the modern person but a more competitive and busier life is waiting for him/her. Surely more time is saved by the increasing of efficiency, but why do people get busier? There are several actual reasons to interpret the case. For one thing, most modern people have stable goals to achieve in their lives; therefore, with the time saved they want to work more, learn more and gain more. Just like one of my professors, Prof.Hu, he is the leading one in his field at our University and of course, he have many classes to teach, however, Mr.Hu takes a job in a company outside the school and works there just after his class. So to speak, the leisure time it should be, but it become another piece of work time. For another, with the high efficient work, many people have formed a habit that they cannot stop working until the weekend comes. It is reliable that many people often feel upset and unhappy when they have nothing to do, which is the consequent of the formed modern habit. Accordingly, even more time is saved; people always want to change it into busy one.(感觉这两个层次有点不明确,你可以说一方面,科技的发展使得人们要掌握新的技术必然花费一些时间,比如学打字开车什么的,另外的层次说科技带来的问题有需要人们去换时间治理,比如污染等)
Moreover, it is not to say the increasing of efficiency prevent people's livings from being more light-hearted and colorful. On the contrary, at the right and proper time people do enjoy more relax(relax and enjoy the leisure time) and leisure time. For example in China, there are several golden weeks of tourism result(resulting) in that there are several long holidays for people to relax(relax from stress of life) and enjoy their lives. During the May olden (???)week, more and more people begin to go out(some may) even go abroad to spend their long holiday. One can enjoy rather(去掉) colorful and comfortable leisure time only if one would have. Also the common weekends are changing now. People begin to treasure(care more about) their weekend time to do something joyful and significant to(这句话里面有3个to) spend such a leisure time instead of just sleeping at home. In a word, people do have leisure time when it is proper.(这段是说晚上和节假日人们的relaxtion,更多了?)
To sum up, people would like to lead busy lives since they take it granted to do so for their aims though the efficiency is increased greatly by the development of technology. Also, people do not lose their leisure time and enjoy their livings happily on the time deemed leisure one.
总的来说,还可以的。观点听明确的,结构也不错
语言你太求长了,有的时候长短句结合会有力度和节奏,而且写长句容易丢三落四的,呵呵~
没几天了,加油! |
