Answer 1

【答案】

Great changes have taken place in the way of communication in people’s life in recent years Microblog, a kind of online diary, covers a wide variety of topics ranging from small daily incidents to major global events. It provides the regularly updated information which is open to the public with very brief contents, usually within 140 words. As a new way of communication, microblog definitely has some positive influence on our life because it makes it convenient for people to express their feelings or opinions and exchange them with others. Besides, it enables news and messages to spread more quickly and widely than ever before. On the other hand, it also affects our life negatively because it is possible for people to give away their privacy or other significant personal information and some misleading information prevents the public from telling the right from wrong.

【解析】

试题分析：从材料的呈现方式及材料所提供的要求“描述微博的基本信息和主要影响”可知，本文应该用说明文体来写作。时态的把握是本文的一大难点，一般情况下，说明文应用一般现在时，但本文描述的是今昔信息传播方式的变化，所以在描写过去通讯方式的时候要用一般过去时，例如in the past, people kept in touch with each other mainly by writing letters or using the public telephone 及It used to take several days to hear from each other.在描写过去发生的动作对现在造成的影响时，谓语动词要用现在完成时，例如本文的起始句可用 “Great changes have taken place in the way of communication in people’s life in recent years”及讲述影响的过渡句“with these changes,people’s pace of life has been quickened and people’s work has been made more dfficient”.相对来说，本文用第三人称容易把握。
