话题举例
Technology and housework
1. What kinds of machine are used for housework in modern homes in your country?
答题技巧：现代家庭中用来做家务的机器设备都有哪些?
用举例子的方法可以容易回答出来，如洗衣机(washing machine)，吸尘器(vacuum cleaner)，电饭煲(rice cooker)等等。
I would have to say washing machine, vacuum cleaner, rice cooker, coffee maker, electric kettle, air conditioner, furnace, etc. Those would be the ones I couldn't live without or I mean wouldn't want to do without.
washing machine洗衣机 vacuum cleaner吸尘器
rice cooker电饭煲 coffee maker咖啡壶，咖啡机
electric kettle电热水壶 furnace炉子
2. How have these machines benefited people? Are there any negative effects of using them?
答题技巧：这些用来做家务的机器设备如何帮助人们?又有哪些负面影响?
此题属于正反论证话题，考生需要同时罗列出优缺点。优点我们都能说出来，使人们的生活更加轻松。缺点当然也是存在的，如：各种危险隐患，养成人们的惰性。
With the aid of electrical equipment, we are able to work quickly and efficiently. It makes our life easier and convenient. However, there are some disadvantages of using electrical equipment. People will become totally dependent on equipment and not to do things they could do themselves. Sometimes using electrical equipment might be quite expensive because it will consume large amount of electricity. Lastly, people could get electrocuted if using them carelessly, which happens every year.

electrocute触电，电击 consume消耗，花费
3. Do you think all new homes will be equipped with household machines in the future? Why?
答题技巧：未来的所有新家庭是否会全部装备家用电器?
结合现在社会的发展，这也许是个必然的趋势。
考生可以根据两方面去回答此题：
(1)装备家用电器有何方便之处。
(2)没有家用电器有何不便之处。
Electricity has truly become the lifeblood of our society. Right now we can't live without electrical devices because we rely on them to make our life easier. Many of us have become addicted to what can be done with indoor plumbing, the Internet and cell phones. All homes without household machines is possible but it would take a lot of adjusting. We'd have to buy all the non-electric tools to make life workable—wood / cook stove, build an outdoor ice box, dig a well to keep food cool, and top it off with lots of patience, as nothing is fast and easy in a non-electrical world.
lifeblood血液 electrical devices电子设备
addicted to对……上瘾 indoor plumbing家用工具
