토익스피킹 스마트폰 · 기술 주제 — 예시 문항과 모범 답안

I use my smartphone about four hours a day. Most of that time is for messages and work email, and I watch videos for maybe an hour before bed.

시간을 숫자로 답하고, 그 시간을 무엇에 쓰는지 나눠 말했어요.

I use my map app the most. I visit a lot of new places for work, and it tells me exactly which bus to take and how long it will take.

앱 이름 대신 종류(map app)로 말해도 충분해요.

I think children should have their own smartphones, but with some limits. First, a phone helps them stay in touch with their parents, so parents can feel safe when their children go to school alone. Second, children can use educational apps to study. However, parents should set a daily time limit, because too much screen time can hurt their sleep. So my answer is yes, but with clear rules.

조건부 찬성도 입장은 분명해야 해요 — 결론 문장을 처음과 끝에 둘 다 뒀어요.

I disagree with the statement. I think technology has actually made people more social. First, it is much easier to stay in touch with friends who live far away. My best friend moved to Canada three years ago, but we still talk every week on video calls, which would have been impossible before. Second, online communities help people with the same interests meet each other. I joined an online running group, and now we meet in person every Saturday morning. Of course, some people spend too much time on their phones even when they are with friends, but that is a problem of habits, not technology itself. For these reasons, I disagree that technology has made people less social.

반대 입장도 같은 구조예요. 반대쪽 의견을 한 줄 인정하고 다시 뒤집으면(but ~) 논리가 단단해 보여요.
