Does technology create more problems than it solve? May it threaten or damage the quality of life? Is it more of a blessing or a curse? Opinions among people may vary considerably. Some argue that technology do harm to our social stablity while others disagree the view of point. In my observation, technology as a scientific tool which has settled down lots of intracy from ancient days till now in the disciplines of economics, education, art, science and the forth. Yet, with developments of technology, some unwanted negative effects of it come out to retard evolution of human being and threaten the social stablity when people use it in a wrong way.

In the area of economics, technology is a symbol of new industry which bring in enormous fund to enterprises and governments. As we all know, modern enterprises are inclined to put new technology in use to  allure capital as much as possible to bolster the normal operations of a company, in addition, gathering financing to administration and investments that is in order to gain more interets to a enterprises. When affordable bankroll and financial aids are viod to support turnover of a company, managers prefer new technology to impact market ecnomics and open a new sales market for themselves. That is to say, technology is not only a tool to solve some exsitent problems in society, but also an approach to incite the adavancements of the entire consuming market and carry in huge benefites to our enterprises even the whole economics enviroments.

Technology is also widely used in the field of education which is utilized to handle some technic problems even create new ways to teach with that a school may encounter and develop. Students right now which are unlike old days are demanded to learn computer skills with reading and wirting. Furthermore, some technology reshape the popularity of visual teaching and distant-teaching. It is also taken into consideration to keep pace with today's developments of education otherwise attempting to investigate a new method to teach our students more vividly. That is why more and more original modes of education are born in this way.

The area of art definitely should not be overlooked because so many technologies are used in this discipline to enrich our life. Such as three-dimension films, dynamic exhibitions and the like. It is easy to be demonstrated in the developing process of music. Individuals induce sections of bravura by musical instruments taking piano, violin, cellos for examples in old days. However, status quo musicial groups of rock, heavy metal even punk are favor of performance with electric instruments such as bass, gitar to perform classical melody, and widely accepted by comtemporaries. In addition, technology used in music and some other forms of art are openning a new epoch of art of work which is not vapid and pall any more.

Technology is also an impetus to propel advancements of society, what's more, it does contribution to make our daily life more comfortable and convenient. Just taking computer as an example. People are confused and tired of lingering in  the fashion streets buying clothes and other demands before, it not also takes a lot of time to choose but easily generating a boring emotion in purchase. With naissance of computer, people can use internet to search in what they are interested, and buy things home. It makes lots of work and life more efficient and easy.

However, individuals are wise to be aware of the negative effects technology may cause. When developing to a certain degree, it inenvitably brings some queries such as moral degeneration and society insatblity. The Hwang Woo Suk Event is the right example to examine the fact. Dr. Hwang, a South Korean veterinary researcher who had climbed to a pinnacle of international visibility, took more than his own reputation down with him. He used his female assistant's gem cell to investigate new biologic technology. The absurd event bring harmful effects to the entire sicence acadame and arouse intense condemn about moral discussion caused by developments of technology. It is not politic to use technology in a unbending way, if not restraint , individuals would lose themselves as well, moreover, do harms to our soicety.

To sum up,technology as an area of investigation, is helpful to propel the society, however, it is apropos to keep a sane mind to develop the technology so that it can serve our life demands and other requirements more well.
