你是否同意下述观点:我们祖父母的建议对于祖孙来说没有用,因为世界在过去的五十年里发生了很大变化。
指导
题目讨论的是祖父母的建议对我们是否有帮助的问题。题目给了一个判断“The advices given by our grandparents have little to do with the changes that has happened over the past fifty years (祖父母的建议对这五十年来发生的变化不起任何作用)”。诚然,祖父母不可避免地会和时代有些脱节,他们的建议难免会有些过时。但可不能否认的是,时代在变幻,很多事情的本质依然没变,而祖父母建议的珍贵之处就在于对本质地准确把握,对事物的洞察要比我们深刻,目光要比我们深远。所以,能否因祖父母对新生事物接受得慢就否定他们建议的价值是需要在作文中说明的。
1. 毋庸置疑的是祖父母比我们年长,生活阅历要比我们丰富得多。请结合你的实际生活,谈谈祖父母的建议是否有帮助过你?是怎么帮的?
回答:
有。会将给一些人生道理,比如为人处世的道理
2. 祖父母关于哪些方面的建议不会随着时间的推移而减弱它的指导作用?请结合具体事例简述。
回答:
人生经验类的。
3. 俗话说,不听老人言吃亏在眼前,请结合实际谈谈你对这句话的理解。
回答:
俗话老说老人吃的盐比我们吃的饭都多,他们的经验很丰富。看人看事都很准。
4. 请结合具体事例简述世界在过去的五十年里发生了哪些变化?祖父母不可避免地在某些方面与很多新事物发生了脱节,请结合具体事例简述这个现象。
回答:
科技进步。很多先进的科技产品比如手机,电脑他们都不会用
5. 祖父母对于这些新生事物的某些观点依然具有很高的参考价值,你同意吗?请结合实际简述。

Explosive development of technology and science have been done in the past years. The dramtic changes in this society seemly make our grandparents can not keep space with modern life. Somebody may wonder whther the advices from our grandparents have use for their grandchildren. Indeed, our grandparents might not be familiar with some advanced technique or some new topics. However, I must admit that suggestions from our grandparents are useful in many aspects.As a matter of fact, many pricinples could not change constantly. In this modern society, many things change rapidly. But there are also some others could often change. Like some pricinples about how to get along with other people and the attitude toward troubles, these concepts are important in daliy life and could not change with the improvement of technology. For exapmle, I remember that when I was 12 years old, I had to leave my hometown to a new city and entered a new school. Actually I was a little bit nervous in that time due to I was a sham person. My grandpa told me that it is a good idea to smile to every stangers in my new class. He said that he never did not like a person who was smiling to him and he believed that a friendly smile could reduce the distant bewteen people. I followed this suggestion and I made a new friend in the first day and we keep in touch until now. I think this pricinple is useful for us not only in present day but also could work in the future.As is known to all, rich experiences from our grandparents enable us to avoid many mistakes. Grandparents have undergone many things and faced a lot of troubles even met so many people. Compared with us, they have rich experience to meet various situation and notice the truth in a short time. For instance, my cousin Jane knew a friend who told her that she can help her get a good job when Jane graduated from univerisity. I remember that it was a definite attracting job for many university students. But after my grandpa knew the whole details about this job and this friend, he told Jane maybe this person coule be trusted. Although Jane was not willing to give up this chance, she finally followed my grandpa. And she felt luck to do that because that person is acutally a liar.Admittedly, in some case the advise from grandparents are useless. With the developent of technology, it is inevitable that our grandparent could adapt this modern socity well. Many old people could not use advanced tools like cell phone or computer and they even treat them as toys. For example, my grandmother always persuade me to give up using Ipad since she think it is just for fun and harm for my eyes. She cannot understand that Ipad is an important tool for me to finish my paper and look for many useful information. It is obvious that this suggetion is not meanningful for me and I will not follow this.Although some advices from grandparent might not be suitable for our modern society and they might not understand many new ideas and concepts, we cannot deny that the suggestions from out grandparent can help us lot in many aspects. They could notice some mistake you made and help you correct it. It is real benefical for us to obtain more information and knowledge from our grandparents.
