Agree or disagree: Getting advice from the older friends is more valuable than getting advice from friends at your age. (2007.8.11)



I disagree with the statement that getting advice from the older friends is more valuable, in my opinion, the advice froma friend at your age can be of more help to the problems you have, and the reason is as follows.


Firstly, the advice from the friends at your age may be more practical because the friends may have the same experience as yours. For example, nowadays, young people tend to fall in love with someone they only have conversations on the internet through online chatting tools such as MSN. So they are always not sure whether the man/woman she/he loves is really fit for them. If they want to get advice from older friends they are very likely to be disappointed because their older friends may even do not know how to chat with others online because there is tend to be "Generation Gap" between people of different ages. In contrast, the friends at their age may also have experienced such a kind of love and so their advices are more valuable.

Furthermore, people may always feel embarrassed when they want to get advices from their older friends. As we all know that people always somehow respect their older friends, so if they have some problems due to their unjustifiable behaviors such as getting involved in an affair, they may feel embarrassed to tell all the truth to their older friends when they want to get advices, so how can your older friends give you useful advices if he/she does know all the truth. However, people always feel free to tell everything to the friends of their age, even the affair. Having known all the truth, friend at your age can help you analyze the situation deeply thus you can make the right decision.

To sum up, you can always get more valuable advices from friends of your age rather than older friends because friends at your age may experience the same problems as yours and you can always talk frankly with the friends of your age.

个人觉得这是一篇什么都及格的作文，但是也仅仅是及格啦,还有很大提高空间。

觉得furthermore那段写的比上个段落，即first段落好，因为个人觉得first段落举的例子更适合说older friends的建议好，而不是peers的建议好，因为older可以告诉你online的那种love根本不是真正的love，反正如果我写，而且用到这个例子，我就会用到相反的方面来，用到older的advice更好的方面来。

还有就是further那段affair的例子可以举的更具体一点，而且说到affair好像有点那个。。。。。


可以说peers之间更多可以谈论感情问题，但是与older就很困难。也是类似的理由--embarrassed,但是好像这样说更好。

比如我的朋友问我关于他的感情问题，我帮忙出主意，比如双方要信任和不是怀疑，要多留空间而不是事事过问，最后很好的解决了问题。这样就是更好，更详细的例子了。

个人意见，希望与大家共勉！
