With the development of science and technology, video camera has become an important part in our life. By using it, we can record many detail things that written records could hardly record accurately and objectively. For that reason, the speaker claims that the form of written records have been replaced by video camera. Although I agree on that video camera could record our life in an efficient way, the form of written also has its irreplaceable advantages.
To begin with, apparently, different from the only-two-color and stubborn written records, video camera documents the events, the stories, and the breaking moments with lively and sound making pictures, which much more explicitly replays to the audience the scenes. Take the recording of history as an example, people mainly read the historical records with their imaginations, and whether the historical events were described accurately and objectively is open to doubt.
Those shortages of written records result in many disputes of some historical events.
Another example is the recording of our daily life. Wedding, birthday party, and the born of new life, there are a lot of things we want to record in our lives. Obviously, the form of written records could not catch some breathtaking moment, and video camera is an efficient way of recording.
Another merit of the video camera is, to the contrary of written records, it is very easy and convenient for people, no matter in recording or restore. Consider, when someone want to describe a scenes by writing, he or she must take many factors into account, such as whether the words are used appropriately, whether the sequences of describing is well to understand. With the video camera, we just need to push a button, then, we could get a lively picture.
However advanced video camera in modern times, it can not entirely replace written records, and written records are also an indispensable form of documentation in the contemporary society. Making a comparison with the video camera, the written records are able to offer some important information to people, which is hard to display through the camera lens. A good example is about the disaster of earthquake last year in Sichuan province of China, the video camera does not have the ability to tell people h how many people lost their lives or became homeless and how much the economic loss was, which can be, nevertheless, revealed from the written records. Moreover, the profound thought of the human beings is also not able to be record by the camera but the written records. It is impossible for a composer to display a new piece of music that is just formed in his mind to people through camera, but he can write it down and let others know it. In a word, on documentation, the written records possess some strongpoint that could not be matched by the video camera.
Actually, neither of the functions of the video camera and the written records should be neglected but to be utilized appropriately to reinforce each other. In Many newspapers and magazines, both pictures and written records are frequently used. With both the tools, people have the capacity to record the contemporary life perfectly.
To sum up, both camera video and written are all have its own irreplaceable merits. The video camera provides us the shapes and colors of the world, and the written records let us realize the essences of the world. |
