参考作文：
     With the continuous progress of science and technology, great changes have taken place in the way people live. This progress has brought great convenience to people. Nonetheless, it has also made many people lazy.
     First, the widespread use of Internet technology, especially smart phones, allows people to know what is happening outside without going out. People just need to pick up a mobile phone, connect to the Internet, and open the corresponding software, then the major events of the world will be caught in their eyes. They no longer have to open books and newspapers or go out to get information. Second, the appearance of takeaways has also made people lazier. People can get whatever they want to eat without cooking for themselves or even getting up to go to a restaurant. In addition, online shopping is more enjoyable for people. Many people forgo the tiring activity of going to the mall, instead, they lie in the sofa and just move their fingers. Therefore, the decline in exercise has left many people in declining health.
     To sum up, the ever-changing technology brings convenience to people, but it also makes people lazy. Consequently, while improving the quality of life, people should learn to use science and technology correctly instead of relying on it blindly.

作文译文：
      随着科学技术的不断进步，人们的生活方式发生了巨大的变化。这一进步给人们带来了极大的便利。尽管如此，它也使许多人懒惰。
     首先，互联网技术的广泛应用，特别是智能手机，让人们可以不出门就知道外面发生了什么。人们只需要拿起手机，连接到互联网，打开相应的软件，那么世界上的重大事件就会被他们所关注。他们不再需要打开书籍和报纸，也不必出去获取信息。其次，外卖的出现也使人们变得更加懒惰。人们可以得到他们想吃的任何东西，而不需要自己做饭，甚至不用起床去餐馆。此外，网上购物对人们来说更令人愉快。许多人放弃了去购物中心的劳累活动，相反，他们躺在沙发上，只动手指。因此，运动的减少使许多人的健康状况下降。
     总之，日新月异的技术给人们带来了便利，但也使人懒惰。因此，人们在提高生活质量的同时，应该学会正确使用科学技术，而不是盲目地依赖科学技术。
