Task 1. Given the choice, many people would prefer to live in an older or more historic
building or house. Others would prefer to live in a more modern building or house. Which
would you prefer and why?
首先拿到题目来分析考题是二选一的回答:
living in an older building VS living in a more modern building
假设我们选择了living in a modern building,接下来来列举我们的观点的提纲:
Reason 1: modern buildings are more secure
Reason 2: modern buildings are equipped with better facilities
那接下来在回答的时候,首先是陈述自己的观点:
Personally speaking, I prefer to live in a more modern building or house.
其次是理由:
1. For one thing, compared with older buildings, modern buildings are more secure. For example, modern buildings are better constructed and they have better chance to survive in an earthquake or a storm. Older buildings however, may collapse and cause injuries.
2. And for another, modern buildings are always equipped with a set of sports and leisure facilities, a sound transportation system and an integrated education system. In this way, it is very convenient for elders to exercise, for workers to commute and for children to go to school.
