Technology

Technology advances very quickly. Not even forty years ago computers was as big as a whole room. Now the CPU is smaller and lighter. But technology could be good and bad for the society. Technology is a kind of tool that we use everyday to meet our needs and also gadgets that help us everyday. For example we use a can opener to opened can goods without it we can’t open it. People have discovered that early humans use man made tools to hunt big games and use them to craft or make fire. They also invented the wheel to make traveling much easier. The first tools were made out of animal bones and rock then later they invented metal and they replaced the bone, and rock tools with metal. They use metal to make weapons and make jewelry. Some good things that technology benefits are they protect us from natural disasters. They could detect storms or other natural disasters before us and they warn us before it happens, make it possible for us to communicate with our love ones that live far away, and they help us predict the weather. Some things that could harm the society is there are sexual predators that lure people using the internet like on AIM, some people misuse it and use it to harm other people.

When there is a under water earthquake it is possible it will cause a tsunami. A tsunami is a giant wave that is over a 30 feet tall and it is so powerful it could knock a building down. A tsunami could cause a lot of damage to the state. It could kill millions of people and destroy property that worth billions. A satellite could detect this before we can even fell it. It could warn meteorologist and it could save million of lives. Technology also could save because when someone has a surgery they have robots to do the operation for them. It makes the surgeons less work. Another thing that technology helps us is that it makes it possible for us to communicate with our love ones. Now telephone satellites networks connect to the whole world. I can now call to anyone in anywhere of the world. I could call back to China to talk to my grandma. Technology also helps us predict the weather. If it rains tomorrow I will know when to bring an umbrella so I won’t get wet. I will know how to dress up for the weather.
