考官答案
It's true that we share a lot about ourselves on the internet, and I think this is why some people don't like using technology. For instance, some people won't use a work phone because they don't want their internet searches to be seen, or they worry about their employer watching them.
我們確實在互聯網上分享許多關於自己的信息,我認為這就是為什麼有些人不喜歡使用技術的原因。例如,有些人不會使用工作電話,因為他們不希望別人看到他們的網絡搜索,或者他們擔心雇主在監視他們。
There is certainly something to be said about how much of ourselves we put on the internet and I think that’s why some people really dislike using technology. There are people that refuse to have a work phone, for example, because they don’t want their internet search history out there, or they feel like they are being watched by their employer.
對於我們在網路上曝露多少個人資訊,確實有值得討論的部分,我想這就是為什麼有些人真的不喜歡使用科技的原因。例如,有些人拒絕使用工作電話,因為他們不想讓自己的網路搜尋紀錄曝露出來,或是覺得自己受到雇主的監視。
語法分析
現在分詞作狀語:"被雇主監視" 使用現在分詞作狀語,表示被雇主監視的持續狀態,增加了句子的複雜性。 賓語從句:"they don’t want their internet search history out there" 使用賓語從句來詳細說明某些人的擔憂,增強了句子的信息量和深度。
高分詞匯
  • something to be said

  • internet search history

Many people now feel that technology causes longer work hours. It seems like we can't turn off and are always reachable. For example, when commuting home, we can still get work emails or messages and are expected to reply. I think this discourages many people because they want their free time to really be free.
許多人現在覺得科技導致工作時間變長。似乎我們無法關機,總是可以被聯繫到。例如,在通勤回家時,我們仍然可以收到工作郵件或訊息,並且被期待回覆。我認為這讓許多人感到沮喪,因為他們希望自己的空閒時間真的能夠自由。
I think a lot of people now are finding that technology is leading to longer hours. It’s like we can’t switch off and we are always contactable. So, on our commute home from work, for example, we can still receive work emails or messages and we are expected to answer. I think this puts a lot of people off as they want their free time to actually be free time.
我認為現在很多人都發現科技導致工作時間更長。就好像我們無法關掉手機,總是能被聯繫到。因此,例如在下班的通勤途中,我們仍然可以收到工作郵件或消息,並且被要求回覆。我認為這讓很多人感到厭惡,因為他們想要的空閒時間真的是自由的時間。
語法分析
現在進行時:"are finding" 使用現在進行時表明這是一個當前和正在發生的趨勢,突出了技術影響的持續性。 被動語態:"are expected to answer" 使用被動語態,強調了對個人的期望是由外界施加的,增強了句子的含義和情感色彩。
