Quick fix society--that's where we are living in

Tweet

This morning,I studied a text at a literature lesson and the article's name is Quick Fix Society.I am kind of in sympathy with the author.She reveals that nowadays people are desperate to save time. They choose fast food,take fast pictures,take fast lanes instead of enjoying the natural beauty in the slow lane,use elevators,read condensed digests,listen to compressed classic music,reduce the family time to "quality time" which more often than not,is no time at all,rush into a fast convenient store instead of wasting time picking up in a supermarket,withdraw and deposit money through an ATM rather than stand in line at the bank,and hurry to the medicine cabinet for fast relief when feels under the weather....And despite we are so good at saving time,we've no idea how to spend time.What are we going to do with all these time we've saved,rushing out to save more?People are in a obsession. You see,the internet,the high pace of development in this centuary have brought about superficiality instead of thoroughness,now instead of later and faster instead of slower.Our life style has been mechanized and simlified to a hurried mode. It's crazy,isn't it? Globlization and communication technology make this world smaller;people in different areas,different hemisphere can get contact in a minute.A widely-accepted way of life has spreaded over and influenced gradually.Perhaps,finally,we will lose all the diversity,except those we're born with,such as the color of skins,the blood flowing in your body... Of course,I don't object to progress ;I just think how can we balance life with all these development,for example,we are not being tied to the Internet but we are capable to get away from it and make the most of it .
