1. As people rely more and more on technology to solve problems, the ability of humans to think for themselves will surely deteriorate.
The statement linking technology negatively with human thinking has been playing on recent human experience during the past centuries. The pace of technology development has been rocketing and there has been no time in the history that technology is playing such a vital role in our everyday experiences. Although people nowadays have high reliance on technology, technology only serves as an instrument that enables people to think further and more creatively.
Admittedly, the abuse of technology sometimes does deteriorate people’s ability to think independently. The convenience of technology provides a shortcut for every-day problem-solving that saves time and efforts for people, so technology tend to be the prioritized solution for most people instead of thinking independently. There are people who have absolutely no sense of direction and purely reply on GPS for daily orientation. An extreme example is that a group of tourists in Japan drove their car in to the sea following the GPS instruction. It is also usual to use mobile calculator to work out the appropriate amount of tip after a meal revealing that many modern people are inept of basic calculation. These facts raise concerns of inability of thinking over the modern people and the future generations.
Although technology may contributes to the retrogression of thinking ability to some extent, the deterioration is mainly restricted in accuracy and precision which requires repetitive work that takes massive time and efforts. The technology frees people from this kind of work and so that people can have more time to focus on creative thinking. The existence of technology makes human thinking more productive, improves the effectiveness of our contributions and finally makes the society more efficient. For example, Computers are now widely utilized in almost every field of study as powerful and indispensable instruments facilitating people’s cogitation and problem-solving. But, before the introduction of electronic trading system on computers in the financial market, traders have to make enormous calls to other banks and clients to make offer and confirm the details of the deal which is a very time-consuming and fallible process. With the advanced trading system, deals are operated online with updated and accurate information which provides traders with a much more efficient platform and allow them more time for intellectual thinking to make the best trading decision.
Contrary to the statement, technology provides the foundation for wilder imagination and further creative attempts which eventually enhances our thinking ability. In the horse-and-buggy era, people’s thinking is very limited. How to deliver a letter; transport the goods to another city or how to irrigate the plants are already big enough problems for them. However, in the contemporary society, diversified means of transportation including high-speed rail, auto-mobile, long-haul flights, quick and convenient communications throughout the world using internet, advanced agriculture techniques makes these things no longer problems, while the main issues nowadays become how to tackle terrorism, how to deal with global warming, how to prevent global economic crisis and so on. We can imagine that along with the development of technology, one day these problems will all be history and new problems arise that require continuous human intelligence and perception. The advancement of technology marks the development of human society in different periods and the cogitation of human-being advances along with technology.
As technology brings convenience and advancement to our life, the reliance on technology seems to escalate in many aspects of life. However, it does not necessarily means that the ability of humans to think for themselves has deteriorated but it introduces new methods of problem-solving and new ways of thinking as well as it provides the foundation for humans to think further and more efficiently.
Acting at once,at least as it seems to me,is the only way to obtain sucess. In our career chances always leem only one seceond. Yet a geat many of people must have regretted that why not i do something. If you not immediately do something to grasp it,be patient,the chance will slide away.
Be patient is not prudent,as many people think,it is just you lack of courage,mean ambition and love of comfort.when someone establishes a solitary aim,he may think i should wait for thinking or observe what other people will do. But time pastes,chance vanishes,you get nothing.
Windows computer programmes,for instance,is the best explanation that act is the first step to triumph. In early 1990s,computer,just some boring codes on a ugly screen, is a tough thing for common people. But Bill gates,the ex-ceo of microsoft inc. And a talent of computer science,stop continuing his compus life because a great computer subject was brought the interest to hem. This computer suject is crazy and amazing. He immediately left the college to found a company:Microsoft Inc and creat Windows computer programme with his colleages. Suppose Gates didn’t give up his study in the college. It is hard for us to make more than the wildest guess at what our lives will to be.
Dream and chance are nonsense unless you get up and do your utmost for it. Be patient is justifiable for cowards.
