雅思作文范文：就業
就業是現在的重要國計民生，近些年來，我國十分關注國內人員的就業問題。雅思考試經常會與社會接軌，因此考生要注意這一方面的內容。下面，為大家送上一篇相關的雅思作文范文，供大家參考。
As the world becomes technologically advanced, computers are replacing more and more jobs.
Describe some job positions that may be lost because of computers, and discuss at least one problem that may result.
Model Answer:
When computers first made their way into the business sector, everyone believed that they would make people's jobs easier. What was not expected was that computers would eliminate jobs. Besides contributing to unemployment, these automated workers often exhibit inadequate job performance.
A number of jobs have been lost as a direct result of new computer technology. Ticket agents in various transportation facilities, from subway/underground stations to airports are virtually nonexistent these days. Bank tellers have been greatly reduced due to automated bank machines. In addition, many call centers/centres that have help lines are almost entirely computerized/computerised. A few years ago I worked as a helper in our local library. Today this position does not exist, because six new computers have been installed. The number of positions lost to computers grows exponentially, and unemployment continues to get worse.
While a computer may easily achieve the main tasks of these jobs, most computers fall short when customers have a unique request or problem. A pre-paid ticket booth does not have insight about the entertainment district and cannot offer friendly directions to a tourist. Similarly, an automated bank machine cannot provide assistance and reassurance to a customer who has just had his credit card stolen. And, more often than not, automated telephone operators cannot answer the one question that we have, and we end up waiting on the line to speak with someone anyway. Every time I go into the library where I worked I notice elderly people who don't know how to use the computers and can't find anyone to help.
In the future, I believe a new business trend will evolve. As computers eliminate jobs, new positions will have to be invented. More and more people will go into business for themselves, and hopefully put the personal touch back into business. I believe that the human workforce will demonstrate that it is more valuable than computers.
附：雅思寫作技巧:本義引申
有些單詞在長期使用中，可能會慢慢衍變成其他我們更熟悉的含義。而它的本來意思可以引申出一些很生動奇妙的用法。
e.g.: Thousands were thrown into homeless by the war.
throw原本指人在馬背上，被馬突然摔在地上。因此就有了這樣的用法，表示使處于、使陷入(某種狀態中)。這句話的意思是戰爭使成千上萬人無家可歸。
e.g.: The fund has been used mainly to finance the construction of local facilities.
finance的本義大家都很熟悉，表示“財政，資金”，引申義是“為...提供資金”。這種用法在經濟類期刊雜志中很常見。
