高分范文及解析

01、(交代背景)The world we live in today is filled with a myriad (许多) of

wondrous(了不起的)technological developments.(复述题目)These advancements have benefited

people’s lives in many ways, but there has been a debate over whether improved

technology reduces or encourages crime. (作者观点)I believe technological

development encourages crime.

02、(让步)It must be conceded(承认)that in many ways technology aids in crime

prevention and forensics(法医学;辩论术). Security systems such as surveillance cameras

and financial tracking databases discourage would-be criminals from breaking the

law, as they are aware of the ease with which they may be tracked, caught, and

prosecuted(起诉). Also, new breakthroughs in DNA testing and computer simulations

have made it easier to reconstruct crime scenes and identify criminals.

(转折)However, the issue with this argument is that not all criminals are

dissuaded(劝阻) by the knowledge of these systems, and while they do increase the

likelihood of catching people who have committed crimes, these technological

improvements do not necessarily prevent the crimes themselves from

occurring.

03、(递进)It should also be noted that new improvements in technology have

made it easier for so-called white-collar crime to take place. The theft of

money and information through hacking of computer databases, demanding

ransom(赎金) from companies whose servers are hijacked through the infection of

intranets with viruses, and transactions of illicit(非法的) goods and services

using digital currencies have all become more commonplace due to new

technologies. Take for example the high-profile case of the Silk Road

website(丝路网), a private internet domain that was used by drug dealers and other

criminal entrepreneurs to sell their goods and services. This highly illegal

site was only made possible thanks to the advent of the cryptocurrency(加密货币)

Bitcoin, which was the primary means of exchange on the site. Therefore, with

new technology, new crimes and ways of committing crime are given life.

04、(复述作者观点)In sum, technological development may ultimately lead to the

encouragement and creation of new crime. (总结让步与转折)While technology can in some

ways make it easier to locate criminals, its ability to prevent crimes from

happening is minimal at best. (总结作者观点)Rather, new devices and technologies aid

in the expansion of criminal enterprise and necessitate(使……成为必要) greater effort

on the part of crime-fighting forces.
