技术对于现代生活是不可或缺的，但并不总是发挥积极的作用。

Agree

1. Undoubtedly, technology is the prerequisite for modern society.

2. Admittedly, some people use technology for negative or even evil purposes.

3. In that case, it is humanity rather than technology itself that should be the culprit.

虽然我们面临的大多数环境问题都是因为技术的使用，但是社会必须依靠技术来寻求解决的办法。

Depending upon technology to tackle environmental problems is an important but not sufficient solution.

1. The use of technology should be largely responsible for the environmental problems.

2. It is true that technology will help us solve many environmental problems.

3. However, if human beings do not change their attitude toward nature, technology alone will not be able to save us.

技术对人类的影响之环保

由于电视和全球范围内的计算机网络，人们现在可以熟悉很多以前从未涉足过的地方。其结果就是使得旅游变得过时了。

(旅游将会被淘汰)

I agree that these technologies might eventually serve to reduce travel for certain purposes other than tourism. However, I strongly disagree that tourism will become obsolete, or that it will even decline, as a result.

1. As for the claim that television will render tourism obsolete, we already have sufficient empirical evidence that this will simply not happen.

2. It is somewhat more tempting to accept the speaker’s further claim that computer connectivity will render tourism obsolete.

3. Moreover, in my view tourism will continue to thrive for the same reason that people still go out for dinner or to the movies: we all need to “get away” from our familiar routines and surroundings from time to time.

4. In fact, computer connectivity might actually provide a boon for tourism.

5. Admittedly, travel for purposes other than tourism might eventually decline, as the business world becomes increasingly dependent on Internet.
