66"As people rely more and more on technology to solve problems, the ability of humans to think for themselves will surely deteriorate."
Whether the technology today helps people to develop their ability of think for themselves is a complex issue—one that might be tied up in the problem of considering what does our modernization on earth bring to human race. However things will not seem to be so complex if we consider three distinct factors that related to: time, efficiency as well as self-retrospection.
In the brutal age, it is the use of tools that release people from staying in the trees and ultimately evolve into the top animals on the earth. Nowadays, the fast development of science and technology marks the birth of a new age, which is dynamic rather than static. In this new age, everything is in constant change, to meet up with the pace of the changing world, people should arm themselves with updated and various knowledge. Thus they won't be defeated and deserted in the fierce competition. From this point of view, time is a key point of success. With the help of modern technology, people could set free from many fussy and meaningless works such as wash dish plates, cooking the meal etc. Thus more time can be spent on studying or entertaining, which will help to be efficiency on people’s work and maybe than have more chance to promote.
Furthermore, technology provides people with effective instruments for intellectual work. The use E-mail, for example, is a milestone of human's communication, which actually makes the world a global village. I have known very few writers, but those I have known, and whom I respect, confess that most of them are getting used to writing on the laptop, which will make their work more smoothly. Isn’t it a good illustration that technology accelerates rather than hinder the ability of creating or, in other word, a way of thinking? In fact, humans never stopped thinking even when their technology attained such strong power as today. All the new technologies are based on the achievements of old ones. Without relying on the former technology invented, people can hardly make further achievements. In fact, with the technology getting more and more sophisticated and advanced, people’s thinking capabilities is increasing.
Admittedly, over emphasize and relay on the effect of modern technology will do more harm than good. A friend of mine, named Chine, get lost in the internet, which made her physically weak for the poor eye-sight and lack of exercise as well as the omit of mutual care with relations around her. Finally lead to a break up of her family, which is a tragedy, that we reluctant to see. So more attention should be paid on how to maximize the effect of modern technology and make full use of it while maintain the awareness of the independence of we human being. Self-retrospection, in some sense, is a good way of avoiding getting lost in today’s world, through which we can see clearly how to promote ourselves a competitive and responsible person to suit the society. However, the deteriorate effect of thinking ability is rather the result of laziness rather than the impact of technology. If we know how to use technology, we will be able to explore further into the unknown world of knowledge and make our life better.
In the coming new age, human survival and development hinge upon a harmony between people and technology. When we are enjoying the convenience of modern technology, the ability of thinking, without which there will no creativity and innovation of society, should not be forgotten. |
