Answer 1

People used to communicate with each other through letters and public phones. But nowadays they use mobile phones and the Internet instead. This change in communication has good effects on our life and work. Compared with letters and public phones, mobile phones and the Internet are faster and much more convenient. If you miss your grandmother, you just make out your phone and say “hello” to her. If you want to place an order with a foreign company, you can e-mail the message. It’ll be a matter of minutes before you get their reply. Aren’t we living in a good time!

試題分析：這是一篇給材料作文。本文所給材料比較詳細，我們要做的就是用正確的英語把這些內容表達出來。動筆前要認真閱讀材料，不可遺漏要點，并適當發揮。根據材料內容可知本文主要是一般現在時態，主語是第二人稱，注意時態語時間狀語的搭配及主謂一致問題。寫作中適當使用連詞，注意上下文聯系緊密，符合邏輯關系。
【亮點說明】這篇短文多次使用了帶有條件狀語從句的主從復合句，為文章增色不少。如：If you miss your grandmother, you just make out your phone and say “hello” to her. If you want to place an order with a foreign company, you can e-mail the message.
