Issue25. "Anyone can make things bigger and more complex. What requires real effort and courage is to move in the opposite direction—in other words, to make things as simple as possible."
任何人都可以把事情简单复杂化，但是需要真正努力和勇气的恰恰相反，也就是说应该把事情变得尽可能的简单。

I strongly agree with the statement above that it is to have things simple that requires true effort and courage rather than to make things bigger and complicated. For my part, through simplifying things we can not only figure out the concealing rules from complexities, but also acquire more conveniences to save our time and more efficiency to improve our lives. My argument goes as follows:

The progress of science is based on simplification, which requires people's more energies than complication. First of all, I tend to clarify the essential definitions and difference of complication and simplification. In fact, the former is to collect information as much as possible and represent lots of possibilities when people encounter something; yet the latter is to find the rules hiding behind the facts and complexities to serve a shorter way, demanding true effort and courage. To take mathematics as a good example, when asked what is "12x45", we may count the result out by multiplication in five second, but if our ancestors encountered the same problem" what is the total amount of 12 persons holding 45 cows, they might spend an hour in adding them one by one to get the answer. Apparently, as the deeper rule of addition, multiplication is more efficient in another sample way. Further, in order to resolve more complicated questions such as "what is the area of an ellipse", more effort are required to work out a rule over the multiplication by simplifying its awkward computation. Throughout the history of science, there are thousands of good examples like these illustrating the point that, simplification has been promoting science to get higher levels.

Besides the advance of science, our practical lives also call for a way in making things as sample as possible. In a sense, it seems that our societies and world are becoming more and more bigger and complex than ever before. In front of various productions, diversity of styles and multiplex choices, we are usually frustrated to spend long time to find our true needs and feel lost .It is necessary to simplify lots of things around us and ways to live. For example, fifteen years ago, with increasing development of computers, Internet was first applied, making more and more information available. Accordingly, the problem appeared: seeking for objects in a so huge information sea could cost people a whole day. People realized that the most important thing is to work out a method to simplify the searching progress to improve the efficiency of Internet, then, searching programs came out, helping people find their goals just by typing keywords in a second. Moreover, in other fields, such as automobile, simplification is even a final goal. Consider, cars may be much more complex than before, but only when they have sample rules to handle and compact interfaces with shortcut, they will be accepted by people and popular.

Of course, without collecting enough information and comprehensive analysis, so-called simplification on the surface will be harmful. For example, if a person attempts to draw a conclusion of the tendency in stock market, only by simplifying the data in several cases instead of listing all the complicated and subtle changes in a long tome, he/she would get a unavoidable failure.

In sum, simplification is crucial not only to the progress of science and society by forming rules but also to the promotion of our practical lives by bringing convenience. Therefore, we really need putting effort and courage to make things simple.

With the development of technology, people enter the era of information that is characterized by the explosion of data and codified knowledge. Under such circumstances, while people take great advantage from technology, they find they landed in the difficulty of mastering new knowledge and keeping up the rapid change situation as well. In such cases, it is more important and effective for people to take effort to make things as simple as possible in proper ways.

In many cases, people are really likely to make things bigger or more complex consciously or unconsciously. Big government which is constituted by too many departments often makes people confused when they deal with the government for they do not know which department they should go. Complex law system tend to include all possibilities and solve all problems even in fact in some cases law can do nothing. Individuals usually lead a rather complex life than simple life by setting many goals and pursuing many things. However, the truth is that to make things bigger and more complex is not a native way that people are really willing to be engaged in.

Man’s history reveals that making things simple is a vital and effective means to do research or solve problems. Human being, so-called smartest animal on the world, has their own limitations in understanding complex things. When facing complex problems, without discomposing them into small parts and then conquering them one by one, people cannot solve them easily or even cannot find any effective measure to solve them. Scientific history manifest that this is the case. Discomposing things in small parts make it easier for people to capture the major knot in a complex system. The cosmos, for instance, is a complex and mysterious system as a whole. It is even impossible for people to make an overall sense about it at once, let alone to understand and explain it. However, when people observe the behaviors of each planet one by one and record related data, and then synthesize those data as a whole integrity, an overall perspective of the cosmos come into being. Another good instance manifest this is people’s use of information on Internet. With the rapid development of information technology, Internet has become a big utensil containing enormous amount and almost all kinds of information. It seems that people in our era are lucky for there is abundant and easily accessed information on Internet. However, increasing amount of information do not provide people great advantage but lead them in great confusion for they often find themselves lost in the huge mountain of information before effective information searching tools are available. People’s confusion in such circumstances propel the appearance of information searching technology which make it more simple and easier for people to find and locate the information they are interested in.

However, over emphasis on simplifying things may serve as wrong way for people to make comprehensive understanding on the world. To simplify things serves as an effective way to solve problems only when people simplify the issues they are facing in proper and scientific ways. Wrong simplifying may only do harm to people. For example, in order to make things simple, if an estate company constructs a building only with plastics, it may produce serious problems later. Of course this is a exaggerate example. If a fireman use water only to extinguish the fire for the sake of simplifying, then an unimaginable tragedy may be result in.         

In one word, to make things as simple as possible serves as an effective way for people to develop their ideas, find out the secret of the nature and further the development of the society. However, proper simplifying is important. Over or irrational simplifying may just amount to contrary facts.

匆匆忙忙看出你的一点问题，还是简单说一下。

第一句话太憋了。有点你想给老外一个下马威的感觉，铁了心，他小样一上来，就要把他砸死。我知道你是想改写。可不可以这样：

I strongly agree with the statement above that it really requires true(ture修饰effort合适不哦) effort and courage to simplfy things rather than make things bigger and complicated.

后面的那个股票的例子非常好。

这个例子用在我的文章那样的结构中会更有力。因为我的文章对“使问题变复杂”是conditionally 认可的，给了他一定地位的。

觉得既然你首段全盘否定了“使问题变复杂”的做法，这一段就不要写了。要写的话，就该象我一样，不费太多笔墨conditionally一下。这样，你的“股票”马上金光闪闪了。

时间太紧，不及细评了
