题目大意

思路解析
利弊类文章，同样强调在论证上要体现合理性，即在具体的分析中，明确能体现出一边的论述的确是大于另一边，或是利弊均等，而利弊是否有说服力并不取决于观点的数量，而是内容是否有说服力。
在具体利弊的切入点，可以从题目的关键词中寻找线索，这题的关键词包括home, work, robots这几个词强调了在利弊分析时必须要涉及到机器人对于工作和家庭两个方面的影响。
提纲
写作示范
Nowadays, the world is moving towards a direction where robots are doing many tasks in both domestic and business fields. From my perspective, this trend can be deemed both a curse and a blessing – it represents something of a philosophical divide about how people view this tendency.
From the negative perspective, one frequently mentioned apprehension of our over reliance on machinery is the potential risk of unemployment of labor workers, given the fact that more menial work jobs are done by robots, whether these be cashiers in shopping malls or assembling jobs in factories. At domestic level, there is also an assumption that the computerized lifestyle contributes to decreasing public health: the application of robots for housework such as sweeping and washing may exacerbate the sedentary life of family members, thus leading healthy problems such as obesity.
However, these possible percussions brought by robots are not enough to overwhelm their positives. The problem with the above misgivings is the irrelevant connection between the application of new technology and the potential pitfalls – the aforementioned conundrums are based more on fear than logical reasoning; rather, we also have reasons to be optimistic about the trend towards mechanization. While there may be less demand for labor force, we can say that workers are therefore liberated from mundane tasks and can learn to engage in more creative and meaningful work. By the same token, the mechanized lifestyle at home frees many housewives from kitchens and backyards, thus offering them either opportunities to work in offices or allowing them more time to care for children.
Taken collectively, it is my conclusion therefore, the mechanized age can be recognized both as negative and positive, depending on how we view this tendency.
