借用英國朋友的一句

"The gaps between English and Chinese in terms of language, culture, and teaching methodology are large."

英語和漢語，在語言、文化和教學法方面差異巨大。

這個系列的文章旨在告訴考鴨

英國考官預期的（優秀）雅思寫作答案，可能本身就在考鴨的認知範圍之外。

2017年12月16日雅思寫作考題

Many people believe that social networking sites (like Facebook) have had a negative impact on individuals and society. To what extent do you agree or disagree?

英國老師的解析和範文

開頭段

Opinions differ on the extent to which social media adversely affects people, whether individually or collectively. I concur with those who believe that it is harmful.

主體段1

主題句

One of the most widely shared criticisms of the use of networking websites is that it has led to social isolation among many young people.

年輕人的社交孤獨

Large numbers of teenagers, in particular, have taken to spending prolonged periods of time alone in their bedrooms, on social platforms such as Snapchat.

花過多時間在社交網路上

While this, at first glance, might appear to be a way of bringing people together, the reality is the opposite. Users of such services tend to descend into destructive forms of behaviour, such as name-calling and bullying of classmates, and this in turn make those involved excessively introspective and fearful.

敗壞品行，如（網上）謾罵，欺負同學；過度沉迷的人，性格內向，膽小

Naturally, this then erects psychological barriers in their real-world relationships with the same people they encounter on social networking sites.

即使在網上是朋友，在現實中交流也有障礙（以上都是對個人的影響）

主體段2

過渡句

Many have observed that the damaging consequences of social media are not limited to the young. Even among the older generation, its frequent use is associated with unwelcome personality changes.

A substantial proportion of middle-aged and older people debate controversial issues on community websites like Facebook. Such exchanges are often characterised by spontaneous comments which others perceive to be rude or insensitive.

很多中年人在社交網路上討論有爭議的問題，這些討論常常是脫口而出的，但是其他人覺得粗魯無禮

Even where there is no intent to offend, comments can be misinterpreted by strangers, maliciously or otherwise.

即使評論沒有要冒犯誰，還是會被誤解

In my opinion, the net result is that many people, over time, become angrier, less tolerant and sometimes even develop cynicism.

最終，人們少了容忍之心，甚至憤世嫉俗（對社會的影響）

結尾段

In conclusion, I take the view that the impact of various online means of exchanging messages has been deleterious.

邵教授對解析的說明

按照年齡段將人進行分類：年輕人，更年長的人。

在討論對年輕人影響時，主要談個人方面；在討論對更年長的人的影響時，談到了社會方面。

英國老師在文章中，給出的點都非常具體，這是很多考鴨在答題時欠缺的。
