A decision before an answer

- Your goal: Write at least three hundred Chinese characters addressing an argumentative prompt.

Read the relationship
- The new level-six sample second writing task asks for an argumentative essay of at least three hundred Chinese characters, on science and human development in the sample. It is separate from the functional notice and replaces neither task with the legacy four-hundred-character summary. Share forty-five minutes between planning, drafting and checking both responses.
- Connect a position to evidence and explain the inference.
Which conclusion follows from the dictionary example?
The benefit depends on active contextual checking.
Use the defining rule
- Define a manageable position rather than asserting that technology is always good or always bad. State the criterion behind the judgment: access, reliability, time saved or human agency. Then choose an example that bears on that criterion and explain the link. A famous name without an explained connection is not evidence.
- Acknowledge a limitation without abandoning the main argument.
What makes an example support an argument?
The reader needs the inference connecting example and conclusion.
Check the conditions
- Acknowledge a relevant limitation: automated recommendations can save time while narrowing the information seen. Respond with a condition or safeguard that follows from the problem. 虽然…但是… introduces a concession; 因此 connects premises to a conclusion. Do not label a consequence as a cause or treat one personal example as proof about everybody.
- Acknowledge a limitation without abandoning the main argument.
Original completed model (375 Chinese characters, excluding punctuation): 数字学习工具能提高学习效率，但它们的作用取决于使用者是否主动思考。以电子词典为例，学生阅读中文文章时，可以迅速查询生词，不必为了一个不熟悉的词中断很长时间。词典中的例句还可以帮助学生比较同一个词在不同语境中的用法。这种方便为独立阅读创造了条件。然而，查询速度快并不等于理解准确。如果学生总是接受屏幕上出现的第一个解释，忽略上下文，就可能把一个句子的意思理解错。自动推荐的答案也可能让学生放弃自己分析问题的机会。因此，我认为学校在介绍学习工具时，也应教学生检查信息的方法。例如，学生可以先根据上下文提出自己的猜测，再查词典验证，并比较两个例句。遇到重要或矛盾的信息，还应核实来源。有些人担心使用工具会使学习者产生依赖，这种担心有一定道理。但完全拒绝工具并不能保证学生会独立思考。更合理的做法是明确使用目的，并定期安排没有工具帮助的练习。只要学生保留判断和检查的习惯，数字工具就能成为学习的助手，而不是思考的替代品。

Apply the task format
- Review argument structure before polishing vocabulary: position, reason, example, qualification and conclusion should agree. Count Chinese characters conservatively and preserve time for the other writing task. Human marking examines fulfilment, reasoning, organisation and language; local factual checks cannot automatically score a whole essay.
- Acknowledge a limitation without abandoning the main argument.
Concession is not contradiction: explain why a qualified conclusion survives the limitation. Never market the old source-removal lesson as this new essay.
Which answer fits this case?
Write at least three hundred Chinese characters addressing an argumentative prompt
