科技发展类雅思作文
Nowadays the way many people interact with each other has changed because of technology.
In what ways has technology affected the types of relationships that people make? Has this been a positive or negative development?
It is true that new technologies have had an influence on communication between people. Technology has affected relationships in various ways, and in my opinion there are both positive and negative effects.
Technology has had an impact on relationships in business, education and social life. Firstly, telephones and the Internet allow business people in different countries to interact without ever meeting each other. Secondly, services like Skype create new possibilities for relationships between students and teachers. For example, a student can now take video lessons with a teacher in a different city or country. Finally, many people use social networks, like , to make new friends and find people who share common interests, and they interact through their computers rather than face to face.
On the one hand, these developments can be extremely positive. Cooperation between people in different countries was much more difficult when communication was limited to written letters or telegrams. Nowadays, interactions by email, phone or video are almost as good as face-to-face meetings, and many of us benefit from these interactions, either in work or social contexts. On the other hand, the availability of new communication technologies can also have the result of isolating people and discouraging real interaction. For example, many young people choose to make friends online rather than mixing with their peers in the real world, and these ‘virtual’ relationships are a poor substitute for real friendships.
In conclusion, technology has certainly revolutionised communication between people, but not all of the outcomes of this revolution have been positive.

参考翻译
的确，新技术对人们之间的交流产生了影响。科技以各种方式影响了人际关系，在我看来，既有积极的影响，也有消极的影响。
技术对商业、教育和社会生活的关系产生了影响。首先，电话和因特网允许不同国家的商人相互交流而不必见面。其次，Skype服务学生和教师之间的关系，创造新的可能性。例如，一个学生现在可以与一个老师在不同的城市或国家的视频课。最后，许多人使用社交网络，如脸谱网，结交新朋友，找到有共同兴趣的人，他们通过电脑交流而不是面对面交流。
一方面，这些发展可以是非常积极的。不同国家的人们之间的合作更为困难的时候，沟通仅限于书面信件或电报。如今，通过电子邮件，电话或视频的互动几乎一样好面对面会议，我们中的许多人受益于这些相互作用，无论是在工作或社会背景。另一方面，新的'通信技术的可用性也有隔离人和阻碍真正的互动的结果。例如，许多年轻人选择在网上交友，而不是在现实世界中与他们的同龄人混在一起，而这些“虚拟”的关系是真正友谊的可怜替代品。
总之，技术已经彻底改变了人与人之间的交流，但并不是所有的这场革命的结果是积极的。
