Dangers of New Farming Technology
Blessed by the rapid development of modem technology, people now would be able to enjoy a larger variety of cheap food. Unfortunately, the improved methods have brought great benefits as well as risks that may threaten human health and society.
Firstly, the safety of fertilized crops, vegetables and fruits is highly doubted. Admittedly, the adoption of fertilizers dramatically increased productivity and to some extent resolve the problem of starvation. However, a recent study has found such diseases as cancer and mental disorder had much to do with fertilizers used in farming. Similarly, pesticides on vegetables or fruits can hardly be removed completely and the residues become toxic to human body.
These advanced methods also produced adverse impact on our living environment. Consumption of fuels and emission of gases by the farming machines may pollute the once clean and fresh air of countryside. Fertilizers could probably penetrate into soil, destroy microbe, and even change texture of it, which is by no means beneficial to soil conservation or the sustaining of ecological system.
Besides, with machinery releasing people from burden of traditional manual work .and labor, country residents swarm into city to pursue better career development, which makes the already tight employment situation even worse. Furthermore, the increasingly large population in the city could lead to other social problems such as housing, traffic, medical care, education, and etc.
To conclude, despite the progressive aspect of improved fertilizer and better machinery, we must be fully aware of the potential dangers produced, and make effort to eliminate the side effects so that the technology could serve human better.
解析
现代农业技术的发展可以使我们吃到更便宜的食物。但是,化肥、农药、机械等的使用也给人类健康和社会带来了诸多问题和危险。题目要求考生就“农业新技术的危险”给出自己的观点并进行论证,典型的观点论证型文章。
分析提纲,可知文章在结构上应该是:第一部分给出背景知识并提出自己对此问题的看法;第二部分从两个方面论证自己的观点;第三段进行总结,重申自己的观点。
