解析&审题

题材：科技

题型：Discussion

关键词：mobile phone + work and personal calls +any time + individuals + society

需要讨论的观点：随时可以用手机打电话对个人和社会的影响

建议思路：双边讨论，分别讨论好处和坏处，然后给出自己的观点：利大于弊。

复现情况：2010年9月4日原题

这个题目重复的是2010年9月4日的原题。

如果大家认真看看最近雅思考试写作的复现情况，从8月开始到本次的12场考试中：

1次是新题；

1次重复2010年；

2次重复2011年；

2次重复2013年；

1次重复2014年；

3次重复2015年；

1次重复2018年；

1次重复2019年。

可以看到，重复2015年及以前的题目达到9次之多！这个数据并不表明未来的雅思考试写作一定会重复2015年以前的题目，而是说明，现在依靠写到现题来备考越来越难，因此唐老师提醒大家，备考的时候还是多学习雅思写作的方法，不变应万变，方能不败。

本次的题目是关于手机使用的问题，这的确是一个非常古老的话题，以至于我们现在都不常去想它了。我们每时每刻都在用手机与别人交流，无论是私人的事情还是工作的事情，这已经成为我们生活中的一部分。那么，这个现象对个人和社会是好还是坏呢？

我们可以联想一下上次雅思考试作文，即考虑未来对个人和国家有多重要？在那个作文中，唐老师分别讨论了考虑未来对个人和对国家的重要性，最后得出结论，考虑未来对个人和国家都很重要，但对于国家而言更加重要。那么，本题也出现了“个人和社会”，我们是否也需要分别讨论呢？

唐老师觉得，应该分别讨论手机使用对个人和社会的好处和坏处，当然我们最后的结论是，“无论对个人还是社会，用手机来交流都是利大于弊”。

对个人而言：好处是交流方便快捷，随时可以了解家人朋友的信息（私人），了解工作单位的信息（工作）。为了证明这个快捷，我们可以把手机交流与其他形式的交流进行比较。坏处是手机交流不能看到对方，因此无法深入和对方进行情感交流，引起误会的几率大大增加。

对社会而言：好处就是让整个社会各个行业的运作效率都大大提升（举例：如病人抢救，社会安全等），坏处是社会运行节奏加快，增加人们生活中的焦虑感，一些无聊的电话甚至会影响人们的正常生活。

个人观点：手机交流有利有弊，但是其弊端（比如误会和焦虑感）可以通过有效的方法和措施来避免，而其带来的便利和效率则是社会发展的重要标志，大大超过其弊端。

特别提醒：

双边讨论后，需要考生明确提出自己的立场，这个是双边讨论的重要一环，希望大家不要忘记。

高分范文

The invention of mobile phone has enabled us to answer both work and personal calls twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week. I believe this has brought more beneficial than harmful effects on both individuals and the society as a whole.

With mobile phones, we can get the first-hand information about our family and friends as well as our work in a fast and convenient way that was unimaginable in the past. Before we had mobile phones, we had to spend hours writing a letter and then travelling a few miles to the post office to send it to our friends, and then waited many days for the reply. But now it is a matter of just a few clicks. Yet the increased use of mobile phones has greatly reduced the opportunities for people to engage in face-to-face communication. Without the help of body language and facial expression, the communication over mobile phones may easily end in misunderstanding. Of course, the excessive dependence upon mobile phones for information may also contribute to the estrangement among their users.

 Obviously, the wide use of mobile phones has boosted the productivity and efficiency of the entire society. Let us just imagine how many lives have been saved because the hospitals can receive information in time about the seriously ill patients from the mobile phones and how many criminals have been caught because the police can receive information in time about the bad people. But with the efficiency and productivity also comes the fast tempo of life that many people find too stressful, and the scam calls are disturbing, and sometimes even destructive to people’s normal life. Fortunately, with proper education, all these problems can be effectively solved.

To conclude, though mobile phones can produce some problems for us, their positive effects on individuals and society far exceed their negative effects.
