A3:The Effects of an Invention or Innovation in Modern Life !(Final)

I think "car" is 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 to the place I want to go. In modern society, it would only take about 30 minutes by a car.

Car is not only for convenience. Nowadays because the technique of making cars has been improving, the functions of cars has changed into various purposes. For example, The transport company can serve people for carrying or sending goods like furniture. It helps people to save time and to carry more goods than before. Furthermore, its other applications are also important. Such as the MRT, train and the high speed rail. They all use the same concept and technique to enhance the quality of our life.

Definitely, car has become the vital tool in our life. Imagine that if we do not invent car, our life must be full of inconvenience. We will spend 2 or 3 days to get to another place which is far away. That is really a messy situation. In sum, car is one of the greastest inventions so far in modern life.

In modern life, we invent lots of innovative things such as mobile phone and computer. Our science and technology has been improving every day. By using them, our life become more and more convenient. But we almost forget that no matter what perfect tools or equipment which can imporve our life, they all have their own side effects. For example, the air conditioner cause the greenhouse effect. No doubt the advanced techniques make our life better, but we should remember that our environment is gradually destroyed by our 'great inventions'.

A2:Compare and contrast living at home and in the dormitory (Final)

Living at home and in the dorm are totally different situations such as the classmates. I deeply know what is the difference between living in the dorm and at home. Then I am going to introduce my opinion. First, I want to compare the classmates. Living in the 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. The second point is the discussion. I can discuss the questions and homework with my roommates. Besides, we can solve the difficult questions by taking into consideration everyone's thoughts and ideas. But if you live at home, you just can do these things alone and you can not discuss them with your classmates. That is really convenient.

The third point is independence and the teamwork. Because you live in the 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 any problems of yours. You do not have to worry about it. As a result, you are not mature and independent. The fourth point is my personal opinion. If you live in the dorm, you will have more activities at night. For example, our classmates always play basketball at 6 or 7 P.M.. It is kind of 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 transportation. Not like living in the 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. At home, you can do anything you want at any time like playing the music loudly. It has more freedom and private space. Finally both of them have their own advantages but I prefer the dorm living. Actually, I love living in the dorm.

The graduate tour!!

Actually we our class do not have a complete tour for the graduation. That means we just had a general gathering to 淡水 before we leave school. But we still had great fun although some classmates did not come with us. I do not know the reason but this is the last time we see each other. For me, no matter what I am busy with, I will go with them as possible. After all we have been classmate for two years. Let's forget it! We really had a goof time on that day. We just end it until midnight. Although we just have been classmates for two years, I still appreciate you guys very much for a lot of fun and memories. May you successful in the future!
