88"Technologies not only influence but actually determine social customs and ethics."
提纲：
1、科技对于CUSTOM 的改变
2、科技对于ethics的挑战
3、当然CUSTOM和ETHICS还要受到culture, politics, religion的影响，但考虑到科技的迅速发展和日益强大的趋势，终将成为一个决定力量。

Nowadays, technology has infiltrated into every corner of our lives and has driven us quickly into a new technological era. I basically agree with the speaker that technology is a great influential factor towards our existing social customs and ethics, and it is even regarded by some scholars as a reconstruction power too some extent. Although certain traditional factors still exist and would maintain their power upon customs and ethics, I am optimistic about the growing strength of technology.

To begin with, technology has actually played an important role in changing and reconstruction our social customs in almost every aspect of life. First, let us observe how large technology has influenced our working style. With the emergence of automation, machines and assemble-line subrogated the simple physical efforts of our predecessors. Plus the advanced communication technology, a new working mode—working at home via internet—comes into being. Turning next to people’s daily communication habits, we could also find technology’s deep effects. Instant communication tools, such as net-meeting, E-mail, cellular phone, change people’s traditional face-to-face communication means, and therefore alienate their relations. Even people’s language system also changes quickly, thanks to the sharp progress of technology. Web language is an interesting example. People nowadays are accustomed to use “cu” and “tks” in net instead of the formal “see you” and “thanks”. Some linguistics said that internet has changed our customs of language and created a new kind of English without structure.

Similarly, technology has immense impact and even challenges our society’s ethics, which can be defined as a set of morals and principles essential to maintain the social stability. Technology, a new phenomenon, just likes a deviate daring to rebel all kinds of orthodox principles. Cloning science serves a telling illustration. As one of the most astonishing and challenging biochemical techniques, cloning is thought to be quite promising in gene savings. But at the same time, such kind of breakthrough directly arouses the crisis of traditional morality and ethic system, which is manifested on several critical concepts, such as human’s main body concept, marriage and family concept, ecological concept and so forth. Additionally, the popularity of internet also brought bedlam to traditional ethics. Based on a virtue world, each one is only a code on net and can conceal or change his or her identity, age, or even gender. Lacking numerous restrictions in the reality, internet provides people a free platform to cheat. You can hardly confirm the reliability of the information others provide, and can hardly even make sure whether you are talking to a man or a dog!

Having fully realized the huge influence of technology brought on customs and ethics, I am still reluctant to say that technology is really a decisive factor of them now. After all, some other forces, such as culture, politics, religion and so forth, which formed and occupied the dominant position during a long time periods, are still essential factors affecting out society’s customs and ethics now. Compared to them, technology is merely a new comer and has a short history. But astonishingly, this new force showed an unprecedented power and changed our life style so thoroughly and deeply during such short time period. Fully realized its energy and sharp pace, I dare to say, with time passed, the technology would far exceed those traditional forces and grow into a major influence power upon our society’s customs and ethics. In fact, culture, politics or religion have also been deeply influenced by the technology.
In sum, technology has shaken our life style, social customs and even ethics so deeply. Although it can not be regard as the most crucial factors until now, we can predict its ascending status in the foreseeable future.

Nowadays, technology has infiltrated into every corner of our lives and has driven us quickly into a new technological era. I basically agree with the speaker that technology is a great influential factor towards（in deciding） our existing social customs and ethics, and it is even regarded by some scholars as a reconstruction power too（to） some extent. Although certain traditional factors still exist and would maintain their power upon customs and ethics, I am optimistic about the growing strength of technology.

To begin with, technology has actually played an important role in changing and reconstruction（reconstructing） our social customs in almost every aspect of life. First, let us observe how large technology has influenced our working style. With the emergence of automation, machines and assemble-line subrogated the simple physical efforts of our predecessors. Plus the advanced communication technology, a new working mode—working at home via internet—comes into being. （if we turn our attention to）Turning next to people’s daily communication habits, we could also find technology’s deep effects. Instant communication tools, such as net-meeting, E-mail, cellular phone, change people’s traditional face-to-face communication means, and therefore alienate their relations（one person from another//they become more estranged）. Even people’s language system also changes quickly, thanks to the sharp progress of technology. Web language is an interesting example. People nowadays are accustomed to use（using） “cu” and “tks” in net（on line） instead of the formal “see you” and “thanks”. Some linguistics（linguists） said that internet has changed our customs of language and created a new kind of English without structure.

Similarly, technology has immense impact （on） and even challenges our society’s ethics, which can be defined as a set of morals and principles essential to maintain the social stability. Technology, a new phenomenon, just likes a deviate daring（the daring deviant） to rebel （+against）all kinds of orthodox principles. Cloning science serves a telling illustration. As one of the most astonishing and challenging biochemical techniques, cloning is thought to be quite promising in gene savings（preservation）. But at the same time, such kind of breakthrough directly arouses（induce） the crisis of traditional morality and ethic system, which is manifested on（by） several critical concepts, such as human’s main body concept, marriage and family concept, ecological concept and so forth. Additionally, the popularity of internet also brought bedlam to traditional ethics. Based on（in就可以了,这样有些别扭感觉） a virtue （virtual）world, each one is only a code（sign） on net and can conceal or change his or her identity, age, or even gender. Lacking numerous restrictions in the reality, internet provides people a free platform（hotbed温床） to cheat. You can hardly confirm（discern） the reliability of the information others provide, and can hardly even make sure whether you are talking to a man or a dog!

Having fully realized the huge influence of technology brought on customs and ethics, I am still reluctant to say that technology is really a decisive factor（ for） them now. After all, some other forces, such as culture, politics, religion and so forth, which formed and occupied the dominant position（s） during a long time periods（s去掉）, are still essential factors affecting out society’s customs and ethics now. Compared to（wiith, compared to 是比作的意思）them, technology is merely a new comer（a raw recruit） and has a short history. But astonishingly, this new force showed an unprecedented power and changed our life style so thoroughly and deeply during such short time period.（加一些论据） Fully realized its energy and sharp pace, I dare to say, with time passed（the elapse of time）, the technology would far exceed those traditional forces and grow into a major influence power upon our society’s customs and ethics. In fact, culture, politics or religion have also been deeply influenced by the technology.
In sum, technology has shaken（the foundation/base/pillars of ） our life style, social customs and even ethics so deeply. Although it can not be regard（ed） as the most crucial factors （s去掉）until now, we can predict its ascending status in the foreseeable future.
科学技术的发展改变我们语言习惯这个例子有些新颖，你说科技将超过历史传统成为决定伦理道德和社会习俗的力量，但是缺乏有说服力的论据

这是我的一个畅想，是基于发展速度比较的一个推想。所以举不出现实的例子。
是不是推想和假设就不能作为我论点的一个强有力的支持呢？
若想更有说服力，应该如何去证明呢？

Nowadays, technology has infiltrated into every corner of our lives and has driven us quickly into a new technological era（这句很新颖啊，我就只会写with the development……，呵呵，学习学习）.

Although certain traditional factors still exist and would maintain their power upon customs and ethics, I am optimistic about the growing strength of technology（这句可以交代再清楚一些，我开始就看得比较迷糊，不过可能是因为大多数都是持反对观点的吧，看晕了）.
To begin with, technology has actually played an important role in changing and reconstruction our social customs in almost every aspect of life. First, let us observe how large technology(小错误，注意单复数和题目里的统一啊) has influenced our working style.

这篇的逻辑蛮好的，很多地方比我们想得要更透彻
不过前两段感觉例子太多了，适当减少些例子加些论述会比较好:)
