  高分范文及解析

  Introduction

  It is very common to see people, be they youngsters or seniors, browsing social media platforms, such as TikTok and Facebook, to keep contact with others and get themselves well-informed. Personally, I deem this commonplace advantageous.

  解析

  比較老生常談的社交媒體類話題。審題時需注意：and連接，因此考生需覆蓋到社交媒體對兩方面的影響：與人聯(lián)系&獲取信息。只點到其一就是偏題。

  Body 1

  Modern media provides its users with easier access to both their beloved ones and strangers by overcoming the geographic distance.<利用從句，點出反方觀點的同時就反駁掉> Those who harbour prejudice toward social media and regard it as the factor of undermining face-to-face interaction are actually old-fashioned and even out of touch, since they picture the scenes decades ago when friends and family members contacted with each other by merely typing and receiving messages on a cold screen instead of talking face to face. In fact, things have changed with technologies booming unprecedentedly. Social media nowadays has made it possible for users to chat with each other in this virtual world just like the way they communicate in reality. In other words, it is through modern media that people are able to keep in touch by either video-chatting or uploading photos especially during the outbreak of pandemics.

  解析

  【解析】“讓步+反駁”的框架回應第一個方面——與人保持聯(lián)系。

  harbour vt. 持有，懷有

  undermine vt. 逐漸削弱[損害]

  out of touch 脫節(jié)，孤陋寡聞

  picture vt. 想象

  boom vi. 繁榮，迅速發(fā)展

  Body 2

  As to news sources, social media also has an edge over traditional forms like newspapers. <先讓一小步> Admittedly, compared with news shown on social media, which may be fabricated, the stories reported on newspapers are rather authentic, since the strict censorship requires editors to be certain about minute details. Social media users may be misled by some idle gossips, and even worse, accelerate the speed of spreading such fake news via modern platforms.<反駁> However, this can in effect be prevented as long as readers foster the ability to seek authoritative sources and to distinguish the information they have acquired. Moreover, taking full advantage of news events’ travelling fast on social media, readers and viewers can get informed via palm-sized gadgets within a few hours or even minutes rather than wait at least half a day until newspapers are printed.
