题目分析
翻译
你是否同意下述观点：如果你需要和他人讨论令人讨厌的或者有争议的问题，使用电子邮件或发送短信要比通电话和发送语音信息更合适。
指导
题目非常贴近人们的日常生活，因而和题目相关的例子不在少数。题目的前提条件是讨论有争议的问题，所以要围绕这件事情的特点来展开，破题的关键在于将题目拆分成三个小单元“upsetting or controversial problems（令人讨厌的或有争议的问题）”、“e-mail or text messaging（发送电子邮件或发短信）”“telephone or voice messaging（打电话或发送语音信息）”，讨论每个小单元的典型特点，加以联系即可。

1. 一般情况下，人们进行讨论会采取哪些方式，请结合具体事例分别说明？如果是你，你会采用题目中涉及到的一些方式来进行讨论吗，为什么？
回答：
发短信：讨论吃饭的意见、打电话：聊一些普通的问题、发邮件：学术问题、当面聊：辩论……
会，比如使用邮件，让用文字来表达时能够更好的组织自己的思路。
2. 令人讨厌的和有争议的问题有什么特点？请结合实际简述。
回答：
令人讨厌：给人带来负面情绪，且难以得到解决的一些问题，比如两个人的感情问题。
有争议：一些难以区分的问题，比如一个学术问题。
3. 人们一般讨论上述问题的时候会出现哪些情况？请结合实际简述，如果是你在讨论这种问题，你会选择哪种方式？你会选择上述之外的方式吗，请具体说明？
回答：
有时候会失去逻辑，完全凭借感情去讨论问题，使得问题越来越复杂。比如两个人的感情问题，就没有办法把两个人之间的矛盾变得清晰。我会选择邮件，使用邮件组织语言能使人再讨论问题的时候更趋于理性。
4. 电子邮件和发短信有哪些特点？我们一般用它来解决什么问题？请结合具体事例简述。
回答：
邮件和短信用文字来传递信息，人们在编辑文字的时候能够经过自己的思考和修改，使得内容更加有逻辑性。我们一般用它来解决一些带有学术性的问题，比如论证一个数学定理，我们需要用文字呈现严密的逻辑推理。
5. 打电话和发语音信息有哪些特点？这种方式用来讨论题目中的问题合适吗？请结合具体事例简述。
回答：
打电话和发语音比较即时，并且能够传达主体的感情色彩，用来讨论题目中的问题不太合适。比如让人upsetting的感情问题，在说话的时候很容易被情绪蒙蔽，从而说出一些让自己后悔莫及的话。

Living in the complex society, everyone might encounter some problems which are upsetting or controversial. It might be a trouble when facing them, and there are various methods for us to discuss the problems.I definitely agree with the statement that using e-mail or text messaging is better than using telephone or voice-messaging for the reasons as follows.
To begin with, as known to us all, people are easily controlled by their emotion when fronting upsetting problems so that it is difficult for them to express their ideas more logically.Especially the quarrel between a couple, as an example, we often hurt each other when we use telephone or voice-messaging to discuss.Due to the effect of our emotion, what we talk aloud without thinking could be a dangerous bomb which makes things worse.
However, it is better to use e-mail or text messaging.As I see, when staying here or there typing the words, we can control our emotion better. According to many psychological researches, even in 3 minutes before people express themselves, they can calm down and control their emotions. For example, once Terry called me to ask me something about his unemployment, he was very upset, and begged me to help him out.I suggested him to express a letter to me and to list what annoyed him most.He did that and said when writing that letter, he felt quiet and calm.
Further more, I believe that when writing an e-mail or text message, we can get our ideas into shape.With the wonderful functions of our brains, we often express ourselves more logically and clearly.For example, when discussing a complex academic problem with my professor, I often write an e-mail to him and he will reply me with his detailed analysis so that I can learn it better.
Indeed, telephone and voice message can send the information in time but when discussing upsetting or controversial problems, it might be better to take some time for thinking.As the Chinese saying goes: Look before you leap, I agree with the statement that If you need to discuss upsetting or controversial problems with others, using e-mail or text messaging is better than using telephone or voice-messaging.
