2017年8月，正值八月底，一整月的
Do you agree or disagree with the following statement:
Nowadays it is easier to maintain good health than in the past.
该题重复2013年12月15日原题。健康话题在托福写作中本是常客，去年和前年都有一道专门的题来考查，比如2015年12月考题，三选一类型，问要提升个人健康，你是想改变饮食，增加锻炼，还是调节压力。而其他很多题目虽然没有刻意针对健康出题，但是都可以从健康这个方面去拓展思路。
此题问现在相比过去，人是不是更容易维持身体健康。从同意角度来看，可以提到现在医疗水平发达，不单单是医疗器械现金，医生的水平也更高。再加上物质条件优渥，大家一般都能负担得起看病的费用，由此还可以提到医保体系更健全等。
如果不同意，则可以写现如今污染比较严重，人很容易生病，而很多重大的疾病也还是没有非常有效的治疗手段，从这个角度来看，现代人要维持健康也不那么容易。再者现代人生活节奏快，压力通常比较大，所以大部分人心理不一定比过去人健康，甚至抑郁症等心理疾病发病率都非常高。
从不同意的角度来写，认为爷爷奶奶生活的那个年代，身体要健康确实挺难的，看个病要么找不到医院，要么找到了没钱。而现在呢，由于污染实在严重，我们这一辈到底是不是比爷爷奶奶年轻时那会更健康，还真说不准。所以说，过去和现在，要保持身体健康，都是件难事。
Do you agree or disagree with the following statement: Sometimes people think nowadays the media (TV, newspaper, Internet) are less concerned about the accuracy of news than in the past, and the incorrect information may cause more problem to the public.
ps：这个题目还是蛮有难度的哦。如果选择Agree这个立场，去给出现在媒介传递的信息愈发失真的表现或者原因。同时文中还需要谈及带来的更多的问题有哪些。如果选择Disagree这个立场，就去给出现在媒介传递的信息可信度高的原因或者表现就好。
以下部分是好的表达，大家可以背一下哈。
Position: Agree
Nowadays, the public feel the media hardly gets the facts straight and become more skeptical about the accuracy of their news. Even worse, most news organizations do a "poor" (20 percent) or "fair" (50 percent) job of informing the public about errors in their reporting. And thus the public are misinformed and uninformed.
Sub-point 1:
The level of inaccuracy noticed is higher than before since the public have more access to gain first-hand knowledge of a news story.
Sub-point 2:
A combination of factors, such as the "rush to deadline", being "overworked" and "understaffed are responsible for the increasing of inaccuracy.
eg. The public always find factual errors in the news stories of their daily paper or see spelling or grammar mistakes in their newspaper.
Sub-point 3:
Newspapers frequently over-dramatize some news stories, especially those sensational ones: murders, car crashes, kidnappings, sex scandals, just to sell more papers.
Sub-point 4:
Journalists nowadays feel increasingly trapped between their professional values and the marketing mentality, gradually losing the patience to dig the truth of the facts.
