大陆雅思大作文7分范文及解析：每天使用社交媒体的利弊

利弊类大作文，媒体类话题

Many people use social media every day to get in touch with other people and news events. Do you think the advantages of this way outweigh the disadvantages? 

题目大意：

许多人每天通过社交媒体交友和获取新闻。请问利弊如何？

思路解析：

这是一道利弊类大作文，文章讨论的是人们每天通过社交媒体交友和获取新闻的利弊问题。利弊类文章，需要强调在论证上体现合理性，即在具体的分析中，明确能体现出一边的论述的确是大于另一边，或是利弊均等，而利弊是否有说服力并不取决于观点的数量，而是内容是否有说服力。在话题讨论上，要注意这个题目是分析一个社会现象的利弊，advantages of this way outweigh the disadvantages?—— 这个this way指的是人们过度依赖社交媒体这个现象（every day），而非单纯的网络的技术特性。下面就和大家一起来看下具体的观点。

首先来看好处，有三方面。

一是人们可以通过社交媒体时刻获取到外界的信息，只要在有网络的情况下，人们可以早早通过Facebook、Twitter、Weibo等社交平台了解到任何地方发生的事情，并且可以参与讨论、传播，甚至自己就是信息的发布者，这会让人觉得自己和世界是紧密联系的而不会脱节，所知晓的内容也能成为和其他人的谈资。二是人们可以一直和家人、朋友保持联系，即使身处异地，我们也可以在社交软件上通过文字、语音甚至视频每天跟家人朋友进行交流，了解互相之间近况或发生的趣事，维系情感。三是可以认识到更多的新朋友，通过社交媒体上的兴趣小组等功能，我们能更方便的认识有相同兴趣爱好的陌生人，大家可以一起讨论喜欢的内容，甚至慢慢成为朋友。而且隔着屏幕的交友对心理压力会更小一些，这对于那些现实中有着社交恐惧的人来说，是非常有利的。

然后来看弊端，有三方面。

一是有的人花费了许多的时间在社交媒体上看各式各样的信息，而其中许多信息可能并没有用处甚至不乏错误的内容。过多的垃圾信息需要时间去筛选，这会降低了获取信息的效率，而错误的内容则会让人产生错误的观点。二是社交媒体为了吸引用户，更多的是碎片化的内容，长时间碎片化的阅读，虽然方便但可能让人产生惰性不愿意去看完整的书籍等，进而无法获得完整的知识并产生自己的判断。二是有些人过多的沉迷于社交媒体上的沟通，觉得和网上认识的人更聊得来，而忽略了现实中和身边家人的沟通，反而造成现实中情感关系的冷漠，不利于其在现实中的生活。

范文示例：

There is an impending trend that more people stay in touch with others and read news from social networking sites on a daily basis. While this faddism is frowned upon by some people, I will see this phenomenon from a positive angle.   

Those decrying people’s over reliance on social networking media tend to point to its dehumanized nature and their apprehension about the reliability of news. From their perspective, people immersing in the virtual community may compromise their interpersonal ability in immediate surroundings: younger generations who are weaned on social media tend to find it more stressful to express their true feelings when in a face-to-face setting. Not to be left behind is the dissemination of fake news or gossips in social media. Any provocative ideas may go viral via social media (e.g. Facebook, Twitter) and therefore mislead the populace. 

Plausible though the apprehension seems, I would see people being engrossed in social media from a positive perspective. It would be simplistic to attribute the above problems exclusively to social media: people’s reluctance to personal interaction can be the consequence of their personality, while people’s lack of critical thinking should be culpable for the dissemination of fake news on social media. Based on this, the popularity of social networking platforms can be considered as a blessing to regular communication channel. It provides introverted people with opportunities to make new friends more easily, and it is where people look for different voices besides official tone and therefore come up with their independent positions.  

From what has been discussed, it is my conclusion therefore, while the social media fad can be deemed as a positive trend.
