【题目翻译】
一些人认为科技的发展使得我们的生活更加复杂，因此解决方法在于过一种没有科技的简单生活。你在多大程度上同意或不同意?
【话题分类与题型】
本题是新题，但与2009年2月12日的话题非常类似(详见“类似话题”第一道)。属于科技类话题，题型为同意与否(单观点)。科技类话题是雅思写作中的常考话题，但已很久未出现，上次考科技类话题是在2011年10月29日。
【话题评价】
雅思写作中，科技类的题库共有以下一些分支：1、通讯科技(如远程上班、教育)，2、现代传媒(电视、网络、手机、电子游戏)，3、机器替代人类。而今天的话题属于科技类相对最难的第4个分支，抽象类。抽象类的科技话题请参见“类似话题”的2-4题。
【类似话题】
1. Developments of technology are causing environmental problems. Some people think the solution is for everyone to accept a simpler life, while others believe that technology can solve these problems. Discuss both views and give your opinion. (090212)
2. Technological progress in the past century has its negative effect, despite its remarkable contribution. To what extent do you agree or disagree?(100227)
3. Some people believe that the range of technology available to individuals today is increasing the gap between the poor people and the rich people, while some others say this has an opposite effect. Discuss both views and give your opinion. (090110)
4. The development of technology changes the way people connect with each other. In which way does the development of technology change the types of relationships among people? Does it have positive or negative effects on the relationships?(090808)
【结构与思路】
本题的话题非常典型，错误的观点+理由(这道题目是理由在先，错误的观点在后)。这类题型的写法是一样的，采用单边型，先驳斥题目中的原因(科技会让生活变得更加复杂)，然后再讲执行错误观点(离开科技)会引发的后果。这类题型在雅思写作中有很多，写法都一致，建议大家做好准备。下面给大家举两道思考题，大家可以自己构思一下。
1. It is not necessary for students to go to school because more information is available on the Internet. Do you agree or disagree? (031122, 040131)
2. Some people believe that university students should pay all the cost of studies because university education only benefit the students themselves not the society as a whole. To what extent do you agree or disagree?
可适当增加从句和复杂句使用；文章词汇使用丰富度还要提高，高级词汇的积累上也要再接再厉；全文结构较为严谨。
The technology has developed increasingly. Some people argue that it also has made our life more complex, and the solution is to live a simpler life without that technology. As for me, I don’t think so. The technology progress has proven not to be good is the decrease of the need for human labor. And it has widened the gap between the rich and the poor. Though the modern technology development brings many negative effects, it has made the life more comfortable. On the other hand, it is unimaginable without the modern technology improvement, our daily life would have many trouble and inconvenience. The information technology revolution has resulted in massive improvement in communication, through faxes, email, and the internet. These improvements have resulted in the world becoming a smaller place as world-wild interaction is both quick and easy. And further more, progress in the field of medicine technology has decreased child mortality, increased longevity and eliminated some of the terminal diseases. The world has evolved into what we know today thanks to the development of modern technology. The modern technology makes our life more complex, but also make the life more efficient. If we are adept in useing it, we will enjoy the changes which the technology has made.
