Information and My Life

                       As you know, information plays an important role in our

                  modern society. Someone ~ys that ours is a society of

                  information. I agree with him. In fact, information is

                  expanding at an increasing rate. As a member of modern

                  society, I am fully aware of the significance of information

                  to my life. It affects nearly every aspect of my life. Then

                  how to obtain and deal with information seems to be of utmost

                  importance.

                       As for me, the first way to obtain information is to go

                  to library. Our library is so large that it covers a wide

                  range of subjects. Various kinds of information can be got in

                  it. Information about society, economy, politics and sciences

                  will give you a fresh mind. Of course, library isn’ t the only

                  source of information. I can learn much information by other

                  means. Even when talking with my friends I can get a lot of

                  useful information.

                        But information is so immense that we haven’ t ample

                  energy and time to deal deeply with’ it. Moreover, some of the

                  information might not be true. So, how to select information

                  is also significant to me. Listen to all, trust only three

                  tenths. To obtain accurate information and to throw off the

                  false part of it should be our goal.

                        Information should be made full use in my life. Right

                  now, I try to use information mostly on my studies. When I get

                  into society several years later, information will probably

                  become more and moreimportant

 

                  Today’s Luxuries Are Tomorrow’s Necessities

                       By "luxury", we mean "a pleasant and often expensive

                  thing that is not necessary". From a historical point of view,

                  things which Were a luxury when they first came into being all

                  became necessities later. When the electric bulb was first

                  invented in the U.S., it was such a luxury that only

                  government bodies could afford to use it. Nowadays, however,

                  it has reached every part of the world. It is the same case

                  with telephone, TV, and a lot of others, which were all

                  luxuries years ago.

                       Anything, no matter how luxurious it is, will become a

                  necessity when it is widely used. This is true of many of the

                  present luxuries, including mobile phones, cars, computers and

                  many other things. It is known to all that the purpose of the

                  development of science is to make things easy for the mankind,

                  not for only a small number of people. Therefore, the first

                  thing to do after a new invention occurs is to spread it so as

                  to benefit as many people as possible. In the course of the

                  spread, the luxury becomes decreasingly luxurious until in the

                  end it becomes a necessity. This is an objective law, nothing

                  can be an exception.

                       With the quick development of science and technology, the

                  process for many things to become a necessity from a luxury

                  will be greatly shortened. Anything that can be imagined will

                  be invented and in no time becomes a necessity accessible to

                  ordinary people.
