“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.
Why do we all like new inventions according to the passage?
What does the writer want to show in Paragraph 4?
What does the underlined word "they" replace here?
What does the writer think of the people who live far from the noisy cities. 展开
