【题目】High-tech machines have made life easier for millions around the world. However, some people still prefer low-tech ways of doing things. Here’s an example of why this is happening. You can microwave a frozen hamburger in 60 seconds. However, it won’t taste as good as one you cook on the stove (). And if you’re in that much of a hurry,you probably won’t take time to toast (供烤)the bread. High-tech cooking saves time,but it doesn’t make better-tasting meals.

Most people get their news from high-tech sources (来源)like television or the Internet. This has many advantages. For example, electronic news is more up to date than newspapers or magazines. It’s also more exciting to see live and videotaped news events than photographs.

However, newspapers and magazines have some important advantages. They give more background and details (细节).They also let you read the parts that are important to you and skip the rest. Other high-tech timesavers have similar disadvantages. For example, most people use the phone or email to stay in touch with friends and family members who live in other places. But when you use the Internet or the phone, you don’t always think carefully about what you are saying, and sometimes you forget the important things you want to communicate. Similarly, when you do your homework on the computer, you neednt check your spelling by yourself. However, you are so busy with the computer that you don’t pay enough attention to the actual words they are writing.
