TOFEL作文例文

Some people prefer work or activities that mainly involve working with people. Others choose work or activities that mainly deal with objects or machines. Compare these types of activities. Which of them do you prefer? Give reasons to support you answer.

　　There is much disagreement over whether it is better to work with people or with objects or machines. Some people claim that it is more comfortable to work with objects or machines. Others, however, argue that working with people is more pleasant. If I were forced to agree with one of the two positions, my choice would be the latter.
　　Why do some people think that working with objects or machines are more advantageous than working with people? For one thing, objects or machines are easier to deal with. Since both objects and machines have no wills, they do not argue with us. On the contrary, they are always ready to follow our directions. For another, objects or machines are reliable. Unlike people who sometimes hurt our feelings, they never cheat us. In addition, I suppose, these people cannot adapt themselves to the human world of competition.
　　Although I agree that working with objects or machines certainly has its advantages, I insist that it is far more beneficial and exciting to work with people. In the first place, when I work with people, I can work more efficiently than when I work with machines or objects. The reason, in my opinion, is that working with people gives us power and competition and thus make our work more productive. In this sense, rivalry can become a very effective motive in improving one's ability. Moreover, two heads are always better than one. In the second place, working with people is more interesting than working with machines or objects. The latter makes one bored, and it takes much more time to complete a certain task. Besides, if one spends most of his or her time only handling machines or objects, he or she can become indifferent and inhuman. Though machines may be very accurate, they have no hearts. In other words, it is hard to feel love for machines or objects.
　　In conclusion, I believe that working with people is far more valuable not only because it increases our efficiency in work, but also because it brings us a sense of companionship that contributes to the meaning of our life as well as our work. Therefore, I prefer working with people.
