急急急!!! 紧急通告!!!

Throughout all the years, technology has become one of the most important factors to promote our society to develop from one era to another, especially in the developed countries. However, as far as I am concerned, I believe that technology has impoverished some of abilities and bodies physically and mentally, while the development of it may be good to some extent. My reasons go as follows.

First of all, there is no doubt that people have become lazier and lazier by excessive using technology, even though it makes life more easy and convenient. Students are using technology, such as the internet, to serve for them rather than taking a trip to the library. Also, they put their thinking skills on hold and live on "copy and paste" by just checking Google for school work without much research or thought. In addition, the internet allows storing of all information. At this point no learning or revelation takes place; there is only passive absorption of information and knowledge no active learning.

Secondly, technology has harmed children’s bodies physically. The reason of obesity is that they no longer participate in sports, According to the data, most of children under the age of 15 years old have certain type of portable game device such as Game Boy, Play Station and X-Box. They inside play games all day and it has changed life to the point where children do not play outside and exercise anymore.

Moreover, it is apparent that on no account can we ignore an effect which is the decreasing of the math ability by using calculators, and we cannot believe that schools now seem contented with allowing calculators to work out even the simplest mathematical equations. Thus, for the sake of testing the mathematical abilities of students, calculators are not allowed in any contests.

All in all, taking into account of what I have discussed above, it is self-evident that both mind and body are deeply and negatively harmed by the technology. Not only do people become lazier and lazier, but also does it cause obesity and destroy our basic abilities. Human beings could balance of using technological development reasonably; as a result, we could have the benefits of technology without its disadvantages.
