　　05-04  观点类题型 – 社会话题

　　The increasing use of technology in the workplace has made it easier for young people to get work an hard for old people. To what extent do you agree or disagree？

　　题目大意：

　　新技术在企业的普及，让青年比老年人更有求职优势。同意还是反对

　　思路：

　　To what extent do you agree or disagree，建议采用折中的部分同意/反对的立场；在文章中采用双边论证。

　　将get work这一抽象的概念予以细分后，根据不同工作有不同的侧重，讨论年轻和年老的求职者各自的优势。如某些工作注重新技术的应用，年轻人求职有优势；而另一些工作，则不是由依赖技术优势，更依赖年长者的经验和人脉等。

　　审题，找出关键词：

　　made it easier for young people to get work：get work是一个抽象概念（在具体论证中，需要分成不同的具体工种，并分析各自的需求，才可以讨论是青年还是老人更有竞争优势）

　　提纲梳理如下：

　　范文：

　　Some people claim that the computerized era makes the younger generation more competitive than their senior counterparts in job seeking. While it maybe the truth in the case of some businesses, I would say that there are many other fields where old people have their unique strength over young rivals.

　　On the one hand, in some technological industries, young job seekers who can manipulate computers or software do have more opportunities than old people.This is particularly obvious in positions like programming and IT engineering,where the proficiency in computer know-how and potential learning capabilityare the key consideration for employers. That is why there are usually thresholds set for the age of applicants in these occupations, given the general belief that young people are more adapted to the ever-changing trend of new technology.

　　On the other hand,there are other jobs which do not require proficiency in technological skills. The sales, for example, is one of those positions that attaches more importance on experience and business connections, both of which are the advantages of senior employees, as it takes years to accumulate the knowledge and establish network in a certain field. The same is true for consulting companies, where the profound insight from an experienced expert is far more reliable and persuasive to clients.The last fact we cannot afford to ignore is that in almost all countries, whether these be developed or developing ones, it is the elderly who take the position of president, no matter how much the government values new technology.

　　In conclusion, it is undeniable that old people are eclipsed by young talents in certain technological positions, but it seems to me that senior citizens still have their role to play in many sectors in this high-tech age.
