43. The increasingly rapid pace of life today causes more problems than it solves.
Write a response in which you discuss the extent to which you agree or disagree with the statement and explain your reasoning for the position you take. In developing and supporting your position, you should consider ways in which the statement might or might not hold true and explain how these considerations shape your position.
Nowadays, our society is developing in an extremely fast way.To catch the speed of our society, we have to live a rapid life.Though modern society bring us a lot of new things, it cause new problems as well.The fast-speed society really cause environment problems, health problems, and communication barriers between people.
The high speed of productive could cause environmental problems such as nature resource and pollution. After the Industrial Revolution, the efficiency of productive had been enhanced on a great extent.Our society is able to get more products in a short time, which meets the people's need.However, the environmental problem just comes after the high productive.In order to keep a high speed of productive, we have to consume a huge amount of nature resource.For example, in order to make new furniture, we have to cut down a lot of woods and do cause harm to the forest.Moreover, destroy of forest causes other environmental problems. Those animals live in the forest may lost their habits and food and they are more likely to face extinction.That means in order to keep high productive of furniture, we lose both forest and animal resource.Besides, the high production causes pollution as well. For example, some paper factories pull the dirty water right into the river near them, which cause a great problem to the water in the river.
The rapid pace of people's live could lead to health problems.These problems could be both physics and mental. For example, in order to catch the deadline of the work task, a person has to spend extra hours on his work.To save time, he eats fast food every day and almost takes no exercise.If he keep this type of life for a long time, his body is more likely in poor condition. And he is more likely to get ill. Moreover, working for long time everyday and no entertainment could lead to great stress on a person.The stress is likely to cause mental problems to a person. For these reasons, rapid pace of life could cause a number of illnesses.
What is more, the rapid pace of life builds up communication barriers between modern people. I never mean a person could not communicate with other people, but the way of communication is changed and this really causes some problems.Though you are able to send email to your friends and relatives almost every time, perhaps you have not talk to them on the phone for a long time, let alone meet them face to face.The face-to-face communication becomes less and less, which makes it difficult for people to get the real idea from each other.
To sum up, though rapid live bring us a high efficiency society, it do cause a lot of problems. We never want a poor environment, an ill body and barriers between us. We should ask ourselves if we could come up with ideas to settle these problems.
