The Effects of an Invention or Innovation in Modern Life !!

I think "car" is the one of the greatest inventions in modern life! Because in the ancient period, they just walked or used the horse to get to their destination. It takes a lot of time and is so inconvenience. I can imagne that I spend one or two days to get the place I want to go. Compare with modern life, it just takes about 30 minutes by the car. So the impotance for the human being is great.

Of course car is not only for the convenience. Nowadays because the technique of the car has been improving, the function has changed into the various purposes. For example, The transport company service people for carrying or sending the goods like furniture. It helps people to save time and to carry more goods than before.

Due to the development of science and technology, car is produced into various kinds. Such as sedan, convertible, track, recreation vehicle, eco-car and so on.... Besides the car are particular about the equipment and function. So you can choose the most suited one. Definitely, car has become the vital tool in our life. Imagine that if we do not invent the car, our life must full of inconvenience. We will spend 2 or 3 days to get to another place which is far away. That is really a mess situation. To sum up, car is the one of the greastest inventions.

Compare and contrast living at home and in the dormitory (2)

I deeply know what is the difference between the living of dorm and home. First I want to compare the classmates. Living in dorm can meet lots of friends. But living at home can not meet lost of classmates and you just be alone to do anything like homework. Second point is the discussion. I can discuss the questions and homework with my roommates. Besides we can solve the difficult questions by everyone's thought, ideas. But if you live at home, you just can do these things alone and you can not discuss with your classmates. That is really inconvenience.

Third point is independence and the teamwork. Because you live in dorm, you have to take care of yourself such as the laundry. You have to learn how to deal with all kinds of situations. And you have to learn the teamwork, that is, cooperating with others. But at home, your parents will fix you up with anything and deal with your any problems. You do not have to worry about it. That cause that you are not mature and independent. Fourth point is my personal opinion. If you live in dorm, you will have more activities at night. For example, our classmates always play basketball at 6 or 7 P.M.. It is kinda late for me, so I can not play with them. In sum, there are too many limits for the night activities .

Definitely, living at home will take you lots of time and money on the transpot. Not like living in dorm, you just walk 5 or 10 minutes to the classroom. Of course living at home has more privacy and freedom. For example, sometimes you would like to read alone but you cannot. You want to listen to the music but they are studying or slepping. But at home, you can do anything you want at any time like playing the music loudly. It has more freedom. Finally both of them have their own advantages but I prefer the dorm living.

The vacation!!

Last Saturday I wnet to 淡水 with my firends and some unknown girls. That day was really hot and I almost burned myself. We ate the ice cream for the lunch. Then we played the basketball machine for gambling on what the winer could order the loser to do anything. And our team lost for the game. I was order to carry a girl my partner on my back. I was deceived by them. They told me that they were not good at this. After that we played some funny games that we thought ourself. It was very crazy and excited. Finally we went to see the night scenes. That was a perfect schedule for us.

SBL


My friends and I went to see basketball games SBL. That was really excited. It was very difference between seeing the game at home and going to there. In the gym was more excited and flushed. No matter what team got the score. They just yield loudly and crazy. And when the team who support that lost the game, they just cried. That was so exaggerative for me. It was just a game. One team win and another will lose definitely. That was not a big deal. But I was very impressed by this experience.

Compare and contrast living at home and in the dormitory (1)

What’s the difference of living between dormitory and home? I believe I can tell you guy clear and abundant idea. Because in my institute period, I lived in dormitory five years. And I have lived at home in NTUST for one year. So I deeply know the difference.

I am very impressed by the past five years of living in dormitory. I have lots of gorgeous, funny and sad memories. That was my first time leaving home, so I feeled strange and kinda homesick! At that time I really couldn’t adapt to the new environment. But when I break the ice with my roommates, I began a brand-new stage in my life. The living of dorm really has lots of funny and crazy things. I remembered once we hid in the bathroom to study for the midterm, because the we were forced to put out the light and went to bed at 11P.M.. We didn’t have enough time to prepare it. That was really excited and crazy for us. In another word, living in dorm can meet lots of people and see various things that you don’t know at all. Also the relationship with classmates is closer just like brothers, because we do anything together such as eating, reading, playing and chatting. Of course it includes doing the funny and crazy things.

Definitely, the greatest thing you can learn in dorm live is how to get along with others and how to do one thing with classmates cooperatively. Just like me, I was a shy and not talkive person before I lived in the dorm. In the five years I think I grew much and became happier and vivid. And the team work is also an important part in the dorm. You can learn how to plan, prepare, discuss and offer any ideas in a group. I remember that we our class were responsible for the sports meet. Our class the 45 classmates pulled together to prepare for it. We discussed and distributed the work to everyone. And we got the first place among all departments. We hold the trophy and took pictures. At that time we were so crazy and excited. That experience was amazing and profound to me. In the dorm you must take care of your all business, such as doing the laundry. And you have to be responsibility for yourself. That maked you become more independent and maturer. To sum up, the living of dorm can make you more independent, maturer and you can learn different things

Personally, I think living in home is bad to me, because it is so inconvenience. For example, when I have questions, I can ask nobody. One of the reasons is that I just meet classmates in the class. In another word, the time of staying together is a little. The transportation and the time is another main point, too. Generally, the cost is always expensive and it costs lots of time of taking the train. The only good thing to me is that it has more privacy time and space. You can do anything you like, because do not need to think about others or worry about whether I disturb them. Anyway I prefer living in the dorm than home. Finally I think that both of them have their own advantages and defects. And no mateer what kind you like, you can enrich life by various things you experience.

Listening

Listening, speaking, reading and writting are all important parts of English for everyone. I think listening is hareder than others to me. I believe that the only way to improve listening is diligent. And there are lots of tools such as listening to the radio, read magazines and so on. If you would like to improve your English, you must form the habit of reading English everyday. And don't give up and keep on learning English. If you don't keep learning, you will backslide at all. Finally forming the habit is difficult to everyone. But if you can defeat it, your English level will get better and better.
