题目：
Internet is as important as other service such as building roads that government should make Internet access to all the citizens at no cost.
这一题是2014年北美机经的重复，只改动了不多的内容，在大陆考区是第一次出现。因此对于备考托福的学子而言，北美真题与大陆托福机经同样重要。
本题属于不太典型的利弊类题目，既提到了提供免费网络的优势劣势，又设计了互联网本身的重要性，因此对考生有一些误导的作用。我的建议是化繁为简，既然互联网本身的确很重要，互联网连接和修建公路孰轻孰重不宜作为讨论的重点，重点放在互联网是否应免费就好。
题目中已经明确提到了citizen，对他们的影响当然是要首先考虑的。此外，题目设计政府，自然可考虑对于国家政治、经济等各方面起到的作用，所以不难想到免费的互联网对于互联网提供商的影响也是很直接的。网络既然免费，供应商的利润自然下滑。对于普通用户而言，免费的网络意味着用户的激增，自然造成服务质量的下降。从这两方面考虑，无论网络本身有多强大的功能，都抵不过这两大弊端带来的影响，所以选择否定是比较容易的立场。
参考范文：
Despite the huge impact of the Internet, as a convenient tool for educational, vocational and recreational purposes, offering free Internet access should be viewed as a short-sighted, ill-considered proposal. For both personal and commercial concerns, Internet with no charges will inevitably bring about unexpected fallout. Therefore, I hold my point that under no circumstances should the government provide free Internet access for the public.
First, for the users of Internet, free of charge means declination of quality. So limited is the total bandwidth of Internet access, that more computers and phones connected to the Internet means slower speed for each individual user. Now, as Internet could be available only after payment, those unwilling to spend money on the Internet leaves fairly enough bandwidth for the registered users. However, were Internet free of charge for citizens, almost everyone, whether with urgent or irrelevant aims, would have connected to the Internet for 24 hours 7 days. Then, without doubt, so many citizens watching online videos, downloading large-scale softwares or chatting via video cam with more than 10 friends, the Internet must be slower than those using a primitive 14.4k modem. So, for the rights to access fast enough Internet, government should never make it free.
Second, for the businesses providing Internet access, free Internet services will ruin their future. As Internet become an essential part for people’s life, many companies working on offering fast, stable Internet access become strong business tycoons. For instance, Vodafone, one of the largest Internet service provider, has established 14 branches in different countries and recruited over 1.4 million employees. However, were free Internet service emerged, what would probably happen to these fast-growing business? Internet users, finding ways to download music or send voice mails without any charge, will soon abandon these Internet business sending bills to them every month. Then, not only such business would go bankruptcy, all the staff would thus become unemployed, which could be a huge economic and social disaster for government.
In conclusion, both considering the privileges for Internet users and the destiny of Internet service providers, I strongly believe that government should never try to make Internet access free.
