dn39。t it improve our society even more than new technology? Another problem is that our transportation system is falling apart. Bridges have cracks in them. Highways buckle. Accidents happen because of these problems. We shouldn39。t put money into improving a puter chip when we have basic needs like these. Besides, why should the government be in the business of developing technology? Aren39。t there several very successful corporations doing just that? Yes, it39。s probably less expensive in the long run for the government to developthe technology. Nevertheless, in the short run, there are basic needs in our society that aren39。t being met. I think that39。s where the money should go.托福考試:新托福寫(xiě)作高分滿分作文范例2You have been told that dormitory rooms at your university must be shared by two students. Would you rather have the university assign a student to share a room with you, or would you rather choose your own roommate? Use specific reasons and details to explain your answer. I39。d rather have the university assign a roommate to share a room with me. As far as I39。m concerned, this is part of the university experience. Students should meet new people and be open to new experiences. I like leaving this up to chance. Actually, even though the university will choose, it39。s not totally a matter of chance. We all filled out information sheets. The school knows what we39。re majoring in, what our interests are, and our study habits and our goals. I think they39。re probably very good at matching roommates using this information. They39。ve had a lot of practice. Besides, if a mistake is made, I can change my room assignment next semester. If I did want to choose my own roommate, I39。d first pick some candidates from the list supplied by the university. Then I39。d write to them and they39。d write back. Through our letters, we39。d find out if we shared mon interests, such as sports or movies. More importantly, we39。d find out if we liked doing the same things in our free time. Because of my investigation, I39。d probably get someone patible with me. It39。s a lot of work to go through, though. Besides, the process of finding similar interests isn39。t all that different from what the university does. Trying to predict whom I39。m going to get along with is not a science. I might choose someone who sounds just like me and still find that the two of us just don39。t get along as roommates. Besides, I think it would be boring to room with somebody who39。s just the same as me. I39。d rather be with someone who has different interests and likes to do different things. Maybe I39。d even get a roommate from another culture. After all, one of the reasons I39。m going to the university is to be exposed to a lot of new experiences. So, I39。d rather have the university choose my roommate for me.托??荚嚕盒峦懈?xiě)作高分滿分作文范例1Some people like doing work by hand. Others prefer using machines. Which do you prefer? Use specific reasons and examples to support your answer. Here39。s the problem. I39。m sloppy. That39。s why I like to use machines to do my work rather than do things by hand. Machines can be creative, precise, and efficient. Most people think that you can only be creative if you do things by hand. However, it takes creativity to set the machine up. Once it39。s set up, it can repeat the same task over and over and over perfectly. If you want to write ten letters, you can set up your word processor to do it, press a button, and ten letters will be printed. It would take me forever by hand, and I would make a lot of mistakes. By hand, each letter would be different. By machine, each one is perfect. Machines are very precise. They don39。t get tired and cut the wrong way. They don39。t get distracted and drop some mustard on the paper. As I said, I39。m sloppy, but I like neatness. That39。s why I prefer to use machines. Machines are also more efficient. I39。m too tired to pick up the phone and see who is calling me. My answering machine isn39。t tired. It39。s always on duty. It doesn39。t get tired, upset, or moody. I can depend on my machines, but I can39。t always depend on my hand to be creative, precise, or efficient.
