This is Mark from MarkTeacher.com with
a high-band IELTS speaking answer.  This

question is about technology. How has
technology changed people's lives?

Well, I think technology has changed
people's lives in a lot of different

ways. I think the biggest change has been
the amount that we interact with other

people. For example, if I'm lost and I
need directions, in the past I would have

to ask someone where to go, but nowadays
I can just look it up in the palm of my

hand - in just a few clicks. I can look for
the street I need, how long it'll take,

and the best route to get there. Another
example could be cooking a home or

learning how to do something. In the past,
I would need to ask someone for

advice but now, again, I have an app on my
phone that can teach me and can give me

the information I need. So I think these
days people are less reliant on other

people's advice because they have all
the information they need in the palm of

their hand - at the touch of a button. So I
think the difference day to day that

makes has been quite large and I've
noticed that people chat with each other

and ask each other for help much less.
