Effect of Technology


In these years, our lives has been improving and improving. No doubt, the changes of people’s material lives come from the technology which has been getting better every moment. Technology has brought about many changes in our lives.
The technology brings us a great deal of conveniences. For example, if the air conditionings weren’t invented, then who is able to stand the high temperature? If the computers weren’t invented, then maybe we cannot connect with the other countries. In conclusion, it certainly reforms our lives.
But, conversely, these kinds of conveniences also bring Earth many troubles, global warming especially. The air conditionings make us feel good but it discharge a great many carbon dioxide which results in the serious problem. It is of great urgency to solve. In fact, if the air conditionings weren’t invented, then it wouldn’t result the problem. Of course even thought without the air conditionings, the weather would be cool. The scientists said that the global warming is getting stronger and stronger day after day, if it alone the step like now. After 50 years, the species of the world will disappear about 1/3 (聯合國跨政府氣候變化小組IPCC). It’s such a horrible problem, isn’t it?
So, the thing we should notice that how to improve our lives but do not break the works of natural. For example, we can take the bus or reduce driving car. Protect the environment against pollution by everyone.

A Friend to My Life

A Friend to My Life

What is a “friend”? In my opinion, a friend is somebody who tells you what to do when you hesitate about which way to go. A friend is somebody who always supports you when you are disappointed. The most important of all, a friend is somebody you can depend on.

“Life without a friend is death.” is the words I believe in. If there were a life without friends, that must be grievous. Because when you are in trouble, nobody helps you. A friend is the best mental teacher. Everyone has a friend who you like most, but it’s not everyone can find a person who not only changes you but also treat you like you do. And I call that “The one”.

Fortunately, I have a “The one”. The friend who affects me most is called Brian. I depend on him a great deal, even though I am twenty now. I met him at the young age of ten in a fortuitous change, which he was hurt. It wasn’t until we had an open-talk that he became my best friend. He did all the things which the meaning of friends in my thought. He treats me like I do, he tells me what to do when I’m boggle… He helps me, whatever and whenever. He is the one for me. “Like knows like” is the way we get alone. We both hope that our friendship will be forever.
