【正文】 negative than positive effects on young children.Do you agree or disagree?I tend to agree that young children can be negatively affected by too much time spent on the puter every day. This is partly / primarily because sitting in front of a screen for too long can be damaging to both the eyes and the physical posture of young child, regardless of what they are using the puter for. However, the main concern is about the type of puter activities that attract children. These are often electronic games that tend to be very intense and rather violent. The player is usually the “hero” of the game and too much exposure can encourage children to be selfcentered and insensitive to others. Some people may think/argue that children can use puter for learning purposes, however, they are oversimplifying the situation. As a matter of fact, even when children use a puter of other purposes, such as getting information or ing friends, it is no substitute for human interaction. Spending time with other children and sharing nonvirtual experiences is an important part of a children’s development that cannot be provided by a puter. In spite of this, the obvious benefits of puter skills for young children cannot be denied. Their adult world will be changing constantly in terms of technology and the Internet is the key to all the knowledge and information available in the world today. Therefore(因果論證) it is important that children learn at an early age to use the equipment enthusiastically and with confidence as they will need there skills throughout their studies and working lives. I think the main point is to make sure the young children do not overuse puters. Parents must ensure that their children learn to enjoy other kinds of activity and not simply sit at home, learning to live in a virtual world. 劍七Test 1Task 2It is generally believed that some people are born with certain talents, for instance for sport or music, and others are not. However, it is sometimes claimed that any child can be taught to bee a good sports person or musician.Discuss both these views and give your own opinion.The relative importance of natural talent and training is a frequent topic of discussion when people try to explain different levels of ability in, for example, sport, art or music.Obviously, education systems are based on the belief that all children can effectively be taught to acquire different skills, including those associated with sport, art or music. So from our won school experience, we can find plenty of evidence to support the view that a child can acquire these skills with continued teaching and guided practice. However, some people believe that innate talent is what differentiates a person who has been trained to play a sport or an instrument, from those who bee good players. In other words, there is more to the skill than a good learned technique, and this extra talent cannot be taught, no matter how good the teacher or how frequently a child practices. I personally think that some people do have talents that are probably inherited via their genes. Such talents can give individuals a facility for certain skills that allow them to excel, while more hardworking students never manage to reach a parable level. But, as with all questions of nature versus nurture, they are not mutually exclusive. Good musicians or artists and exceptional sports stars have probably succeeded because of both good training and natural talent. Without the natural talent, continuous training would be neither attractive nor productive, and without the training, the children would not learn how to exploit and develop their talent. In conclusion, I agree that any child can be taught particular skills, but to be really good in areas such as music, art or sport, then some natural talent is required. (282words) Test 2Task 2 P165Some people believe that there should be fixed punishments for each type of crime. Others, however, argue that the circumstances of an individual crime, and the motivation for mitting it, should always be taken into account when deciding on the punishment. Discuss both these views and give your own opinion.This is a thoughtful and wellargued response to the task. The candidate examines the opposing views of the topic and gives a clear opinion that is well developed and supported. To reach the highest band a more clearlysignaled conclusion would be needed. The argument is well organized and linking is wellmanaged throughout. The development of the answer is not helped, however, by poor control of paragraphing which sometimes confused the links across different sections. This is a weak feature of the script which limits the overall rating. In contrast, an excellent range of vocabulary is used with a sophisticated level of control and only rare slips. The range of structures is also wide and most sentences are accurate and precise, but there are some errors and omissions. These, however, are only minor and do not affect munication. Band score:Fixing punishments for each type of crime has been a debatable issue. There are many arguments supporting both views, those for and those against fixed punishments.On the one hand, fixed punishments will have a deterring effect on society. Individuals knowing that they will be subject to a certain punishment if they are convicted with a given crime will reconsider mitting this act in the first place. This deterring effect also leads to social stability and security, through minimizing the number of crimes mitted. If people knew they would be able to convince the court or the jury of a reason for having mitted the crime they are accused of, penal decisions would be largely arbitrary. This would result into criminals getting away with their crimes and into a high level of injustice caused by the subjective approach of different courts.On the other hand, taking the circumstances of a cr
