Original:

I agree with the later statement because the modern technology lets some people who are older, their lives are more complicated. For instance, my grandparents who are 70 years old and they like to pay their utility fee by walking to the office where they pay for the cash or the check. However, in last month, the neighborhood canceled the walking payment. Every single one have to pay in the website. My grandparents have to open a lot of website pages to finish the payment process. It's more complicated than the walking ways.

Revised:

I concur with the latter viewpoint, as modern technology has made life more complicated for certain individuals, particularly the elderly. For example, my 70-year-old grandparents used to prefer paying their utility bills by walking to the office and making payments in cash or by check. However, last month, their neighborhood discontinued this method and mandated online payments. Consequently, my grandparents had to navigate through numerous web pages to complete the payment process, which proved to be more complex than their previous approach.

I concur with the latter viewpoint (revised "later statement" for clarity), as modern technology has made life more complicated for certain individuals (rephrased for a smoother flow), particularly the elderly (added "particularly" for emphasis). For example, my 70-year-old grandparents (corrected grammar) used to prefer paying their utility bills by walking to the office and making payments in cash or by check (revised sentence structure for better flow). However, last month, their neighborhood discontinued this method (rephrased for clarity) and mandated online payments (added "mandated" for emphasis). Consequently, my grandparents had to navigate through numerous web pages (revised "open a lot of website pages" for better word choice) to complete the payment process, which proved to be more complex than their previous approach (rephrased for a stronger conclusion).

I believe that modern technology has made people's lives simpler. One reason is the ease of communication that technology provides. With smartphones and social media, we can instantly connect with friends and family from anywhere in the world. This has eliminated the need for traditional methods like writing letters or making long-distance phone calls, which were time-consuming and expensive. Another example is the convenience of online shopping. We can now purchase items from the comfort of our homes and have them delivered to our doorstep, saving us time and effort that would have been spent on physically going to stores. Overall, modern technology has simplified many aspects of our lives by making tasks more efficient and accessible.

5. 语言使用

Original:

The letter proposes that the university should build a new parking lot in the center field for two reasons. First of all, it hasn't been used for sports two years ago. Furthermore, there is extra need for students who live in the dorm or off the campus to build more parking lots. The woman disagrees with this idea for two reasons. First of all, the center field is keeping utilized for relaxation and study outside, and it is a pity to build a parking lot there because there are few places on the campus like center field. Furthermore, she doubts the need to build an extra parking lot because the parking lot near the dorm is never full. Even for the students who need to commute, they can park their car in the parking lot which is close to the classroom building and far away from the center field. So that is mainly two reasons she doubts the idea.

Revised:

I believe that modern technology has made people's lives simpler. One example is the ease of communication through smartphones and the internet. People can now instantly connect with friends, family, and colleagues from all around the world, making it easier to maintain relationships and collaborate on projects. Additionally, technology has simplified daily tasks such as shopping and banking. Online shopping allows people to purchase items from the comfort of their homes, while online banking enables them to manage their finances without visiting a physical branch. These advancements have undoubtedly made our lives more convenient and efficient.

I believe that modern technology has made people's lives simpler (I chose this side because I think the benefits of technology outweigh its drawbacks). One example is the ease of communication through smartphones and the internet (I provided this example because it's a significant aspect of modern life that has been greatly impacted by technology). People can now instantly connect with friends, family, and colleagues from all around the world (this phrase emphasizes how technology has removed geographical barriers), making it easier to maintain relationships and collaborate on projects (this shows how technology has improved both personal and professional aspects of life). Additionally, technology has simplified daily tasks such as shopping and banking (I included this example to demonstrate how technology affects various aspects of our lives).
