九月IBT-第十三次作业 airbots 进步是好还是坏

Whether progress is good or not, people may have different opinion due to their different perspectives. In my viewpoint, every coin has two sides. Without balancing all the positive and negative aspects of progress, it is hard to say progress is entirely good or not.

First and foremost, when it comes to transportation, with the progress of many vehicles, the distances between had greatly shortened geographically and psychologically. People even can travel faster than the speed of the sound by the fastest civil aviation. Even a woman whose home locates in London works in New York, she can still go back timely to attend her children's birthday party or say "happy anniversary" to his husband.

Moreover, progress in medical has made people's life longer and more comfortable than before. Take the white plague for example, if a person caught this kind of disease, he would be sentenced to death before the efficient medicine was invented.  Nowadays, white plague is just a normal disease that patients will cure within 1 month. Even those diseases which are not be conquered, the patients' lives can be prolonged significantly and the pains will be controlled at the lowest level.

However, with the conveniences progress bought about to us, the side-effects emerge simultaneously. Let us come to the examples made above, the number of people killed in the car accident become increasingly high, and the new medicines application force the microbe to evolve new species which can stand for those drugs.  

All in all, progress is a double blades sword. It makes people's living more convenient and effective, at the same time some negative effects which people never heard of before come out.  Whether progress is positive or negative, in my opinion, it is a case-by-case analysis.

Whether progress is good or not, people may have different opinion(s) due to their different perspectives. In my viewpoint, every coin has two sides. Without balancing all the positive and negative aspects of progress, it is hard to say progress is entirely good or not.

First and foremost, when it comes to transportation, with the progress of many vehicles, the distances between had (been) greatly shortened geographically and psychologically. People even can travel （at a speed）faster than the speed(that) of the sound(这个比较句前后不一致) by the fastest civil aviation. Even (if) a woman whose home locates in London works in New York, she can still go back timely to attend her children's birthday party or say "happy anniversary" to his husband.

Moreover, progress in medical has made people's life longer and more comfortable than before. Take the white plague for example, if a person caught this kind of disease, he would be sentenced to death before the efficient medicine was invented.  Nowadays, white plague is just a normal disease that patients will cure(be cured) within 1 month. Even those diseases which are not be(have not been) conquered, the patients' lives can be prolonged significantly and the pains will be controlled at(limited to) the lowest level.

However, with the conveniences progress bought about to us, the side-effects emerge simultaneously. Let us come to the examples made above, the number of people killed in the car accident become increasingly high, and the new medicines application force the microbe to evolve new species which can stand for(去掉) those drugs.  

All in all, progress is a double blades sword. It makes people's living more convenient and effective, at the same time some negative effects which people never heard of before come out.  Whether progress is positive or negative, in my opinion, it is a case-by-case analysis.
觉得airbots 这次对题目理解有偏差，题目是问是否同意“进步都是好的”而不是进步好不好，不过整体文章不错，修改一下，主要是主题把握上斟酌一下，一定是一篇好文章的～

口语还没下下来，我听了以后会给你反馈的，不好意思，我昨天没大有时间就没有做口语，日后一定补上～:)
