What disadvantages will people meet if they cannot use computers? What should government do?
确定回答结构：
Sample Answer 7
A computer plays a very important role in people’s work and life. We cannot imagine what our world would be like without computers. With the popularization of computer knowledge, computers are widely used in every aspect of people’s work and life. If a person cannot use a computer, he will be confronted with a lot of troubles and difficulties.
Firstly, most machines and equipment are controlled by computers nowadays, for example, automobile system, power station and even airplanes. If a person cannot use a computer, he will have difficulties in operating machines. It is hard to imagine a pilot can fly an airplane without intimate knowledge of computer. Without computer knowledge, people cannot fit in with the rhythm of our society.
Secondly, people can acquire rich information on computer through the Internet. The Internet, which abounds in valuable information, provides people with a lot of information about world events, arts, movies and the latest development of science and technology. If a person cannot use computer, he will be out of fashion and lag far behind the others.
Finally, a computer plays a very important role in education. For instance, students have to revise their thesis when they are preparing for the finals. Without a computer, the revision work will be tedious and frustrating. In addition, students can attend online courses on computer through the Internet, which can enrich their knowledge.
Taking into account of the disadvantages mentioned above, I think the government should do something to popularize computer knowledge. On the one hand, the government and the authorities concerned should popularize computer knowledge in primary schools and secondary schools, laying a solid foundation of computer knowledge for students. On the other hand, society and the communities should organize some training courses for the people who cannot use computers.
To sum up, the popularization of computer knowledge will not only benefit the people who cannot use computers but also the whole society.

Is it fair to cover celebrities’ private lives in mass media? Are famous people treated unfairly by the media? Should they be given more privacy, or is the price of their fame an invasion into their private lives?
确定回答结构：
Sample Answer 8
Almost all public media in the world cover the events and scandals about celebrities. After the death of Princess Diana, an increasingly heated debate has arisen as to the issue of whether these men of mark are treated fairly and whether their privacy should be protected.
Quite a few journalists and audience claim that, famous people cannot be regarded as private individuals; instead, they are the focus of the public and they need the publicity to maintain their fame. Once they disappear from the spotlight, they come down to the world. Besides, many stars even create some news to draw public attention so as to increase their popularity. Since they are public figures, their behaviour, character and integrity should be under strict scrutiny. Above all, in the competitive media circle, no media can survive without the sensational and unique stories appealing to the readers, satisfying their taste and curiosity.
However, more and more people come to realize the annoyance, disturbance and even danger brought to the famous people by such abusive publicity. First of all, being a human being, celebrities share the same rights to protect their privacy. Nobody is entitled to deprive them of the basic human right. Secondly, the efforts to chase famous people and to detect their whereabouts have seriously interrupted their normal lives. What’s worse is that many reports and stories are not true but misleading, thus exerting negative influences on the growth of younger generation. Last but not least, some youngsters follow their idols blindly by imitating their actions.
Like anything else, media publicity has its positive and negative effects. It is unwise to put much stress on one side while ignoring the other. From my point of view, media reports should be on the basis of truth and legality. It is also their duty to provide information more instructive and meaningful. They shall not focus on some sensational but senseless materials. Only in this way, can we create a wholesome atmosphere for both the celebrities and the public.
