(Signposts:hence,nevertheless,onthe one hand,ontheotherhand,forexample,moreover,personally)Suggested answer:The other day,I read about a company developing companion robots.These are robots that are supposed to befriends for people who live alone.Some of these companion robots are actually like small pets that a person can talk to and interact with.But unlike real pets,they do not have to feed them or take them for a walk.However,this company is also developing a companion robot that is exactly like a human being.It can walk and talk just like a person does.This all got me to think.On the one hand,some people could say that a companion robot like this is a good for us.For example,if someone old lives alone and seldom goes out,a companion robot could provide him or her a lot of comfort and enrich his or her life.Further,the robot could help monitor the health condition of that person.For example,if the person falls down and gets injured at home,the robot can call the doctor immediately to come and help.On the other hand,some people also use this technology to avoid social contact.For example, there was a young man who recently got“married”to an anime character.What if it became common for people to get married to robots rather than human beings in the future The gap between people could further widen due to the development of realistic robots.Personally,I do not see companion robots as an answer to people's problems.We should be providing each other with true companions andtrue friendship rather than cold machines.3.Exchange the draft with a partner.Ask students to use the checklist to help them review their partner's draft.Does the essay say what the writer thinks about the topic Does the body discuss the advantages and disadvantages of the advance √Are signposts used to help the reader understand the purpose of each paragraph Does the conclusion state the writer's position 【设计意图】通过写作,让学生进行了知识的迁移和创新,既巩固了课堂所学,又提高了写 作能力。在产出的过程中,学生通过小组合作,提升合作意识,学以致用。 展开更多...... 收起↑ 资源预览
