“Lifeisspeedingup.Everyoneisgettingunwell.”Thismaysoundlikesomethingsomeonewouldsayto...
“Life is speeding up.Everyone is getting unwell.”
This may sound like something someone would say today.But in fact,an unknown citizen who lived in Rome in AD 53 wrote it.
We all love new inventions.They are exciting,amazing and can change our lives.
But have all these developments really improved the quality of our lives?
Picture this:You’re rushing to finish your homework on the computer.Your mobile phone rings,a QQ message from your friend appears on the screen,and the noise from the television is getting louder and louder.Suddenly the computer goes blank and you lose all your work.Now you have to stay up all right to get it done.How calm and happy do you feel?
Inventions have speeded up our lives so much that they often leave us feeling stressed and tired.Why do you think people who live far away from noisy cities,who have no telephones,no cars,not even any electricity often seem to be happier?Perhaps because they lead simple lives.
One family in the UK went“back in time” to see what life was like without all the inventions we have today.The grandparents,with their daughter,and grandsons Benjamin,10 and Thomas,7,spent nine weeks in a 1940s house.They had no washing machine,microwave,computer or mobile phones.
The grandmother,Lyn,said,“It was hard physically.But not mentally.”She believed life was less materialistic.“The more things you have,the more difficult life becomes,”she said.The bys said they fought less.Probably,they said,because there was less to fight over,such as their computer.Also Lyn changed from being a “fashionable,beer-drinking granny, to one who cooked things.” 展开

“生活是加快步伐。每个人得到不适。”
这听来也许像是某人会说今天。但事实上,一个未知住在罗马公民在公元53写的。
我们都喜欢新发明。他们是激动人心的,惊人的,能改变我们的生活。
但所有这些技术真的改善了我们的生活质量?
想象这样一幅图景:你急于完成你的作业在计算机上。你的手机突然响了,一个QQ消息从你的朋友出现在屏幕上,电视的噪音是越来越响。突然计算机空白,你失去工作。现在你不得不熬好的把它完成。平静和幸福如何你感觉怎么样?
发明加快了我们的生活,以至于他们经常让我们感觉到了压力又累。你为什么认为那些远离喧嚣的城市生活,没有电话,没有汽车,连电通常似乎很快乐吗?或许因为他们过着简朴的生活。
一个家庭在英国“时光倒流”去看看生活就像没有所有的发明,我们有今天。的祖父母,他们的女儿、孙子便雅悯、十、托马斯、7、花了9周在一个1940的房子。他们没有洗衣机、微波、电脑或手机。
祖母,林说,“太难了身体。但不是精神上的。”“她相信生活是更少的唯物主义者。他说:“更多的东西,你的生活变得更困难,”她说。bys说他们战斗的更少。或许,他们说,因为那里去争夺少,比如他们的电脑。从林改变也成为一个“时尚、笨笨的,而奶奶煮的东西。”
