写了几篇issue 可是水平还是不高,感觉这篇issue自己的思路很窄,并且语言也不够好 望多多指教 谢谢了!!
73. Humanity has made little real progress over the past century or so. Technological innovations have taken place, but the overall condition of humanity is no better. War, violence, and poverty are still with us. Technology cannot change the condition of humanity.
Dose Technology can change the condition of humanity? Some people would agree that the answer is yes. While others are inclined to deny that technology can change our condition. In my view, however, I think the response to this complex problem should not be as simple as yes or no. Only technology itself cannot change overall condition of humanity, which can be changed by technology to an extent as well as people's effort.
On the one hand, technology can not only improve individual's physical conditions and enrich individual's mental life, but also can benefit the society as a whole. During the past century, technological innovations have made great progress in the world. Many modern tools such as television, telephone, computer and so on have come into common families with the development of technology. All these technological innovations make our life more convenient and comfortable and indeed propel the development of the society. Without the technology, we cannot image what our life and world might be. Due to the enhancement of physical conditions, people's culture and morality can be also improved in a sense. In contemporary society, the Internet technology makes the information of communication among people very easy and prevalent so that it deepens the comprehension with one another all over the world.
On the other hand, it is impossible that technology can change all the aspects of condition of humanity alone. Of course, all of us expect to eliminate war, violence, and poverty that still exist in the world. However, the reasons about these phenomena are in many aspects. For one thing, to reach the motive that resolve these problems, we should also pay more attention in these problems and strengthen the cooperation and the comity of nations and direct the proper direction to the development of technology. For instance, people can institute some treaty concerning peace to limit the war and violence between nations. Meanwhile, rich states can endow some poor countries by loans in economic conditions. For another, the former chairman of China once said that technology is the first productivity. Consequently, the poor countries can also change the visage of poverty through enhancing the productivity by dint of technology.
However, technology sometimes might have negative effect in people's life and humanity conditions so that we should make efforts to prevent. In other words, although technology innovations bring about many benefits and advantages to us, we should not ignore some concomitant disbennifit. In physical conditions, technology innovations such as pesticide might result in contamination to the environment as well as our foods thus do harm to our health. In condition of humanity, such arms as nuke and atomic bomb have become a potential danger to menace people's life especially in the time when a war happens. Further more, some evil organizations would make use of them in terrorism. That is, if people cannot properly make use of technology, which would make against us.
To conclude, if people who have different opinions take all the dimensions about the role of technology and humanity conditions analysed above in the issue into account, they would know that the problem is not simple as they consider before. However, technology can affect the condition of humanity and changed it with other factors. In order to make condition of humanity better in future, every one of us should make efforts to lead technology in a right direction.
