范文示例

开头段	People nowadays live longer thanks to the development of medical technology. Although it has certain advantages, I personally believe that it is a curse.

主体段观点1	Admittedly, advanced medical technology makes it possible for people to live longer and have more time to enjoy life.
观点1解释	This is because numerous diseases can be managed and cured, which means that the pain caused by illness can be significantly reduced.

主体段过渡句	However, the drawbacks of longer life span far outweigh its merits.
观点1	Firstly, prolonging life expectancy may compromise the quality of life that people have in their final years. For example, some patients, though they can live longer with the help of medication and therapy, are still in weakness in the late years of their life. They have to rely on the medical technology and cannot leave the hospital.
观点2	Secondly, an ageing society will emerge, slowing down the economic growth and imposing a huge financial burden on families and governments.

结尾段	In conclusion, although prolonging life expectancy has certain merits, overall it has more negative impacts on individuals and the society.
