Old technology Vs. New technology
"The front porch" by Chester convey,” television destroying childhood" by rose batchel and, “on the fear of death" by Elisabeth kubler-Ross. Those topics as authors has mentioned about how the way thing are now then past and how the way things compare to present. The modern world is changing day by day and becoming more innovative. The different things we use every day such as ours phones and cars and many more. The use of cell phone and cars keep connected with friends and family, but it has also increased public rudeness.
The old technology is linked to the new technology. Without the old technology, the new technology wouldn't be found or exist. According to past, the first car ford model T was invented in early 1900's, without that being invented the newer model would be found. Old technology was not as complex as newer technology. For example, when I was younger, I remember going out with my grandfather in his “maruti Suzuki" which is an Indian model car back in 2002. Currently, I am now driving 2013 Toyota corolla. The differences between these two cars are great. The maruti Suzuki only had radio and air conditioning working only, compare to that car, the Toyota corolla has many feature such as Bluetooth, CD player, navigation and much more feature. Early 1900, the phone was to only used to be called people and now it is we have lots of option such as texting, playing games, video calling, and many more. Another example, when I was in India, I had phone called Nokia. I only can call from that phone. That phone is limited to calling only. Currently, I have the Samsung galaxy s4, and this phone as many option and feature such as texting, playing games, video calling, and many more. For instance, when I came to USA back in 2008, my parent gave me iPhone 2g on my birthday. That phone was slow and takes time to load things such as video, games, websites and etc. compare to that iPhone, and I bought another iPhone in

    In the book, there is a short story, “The Veldt”, that describes users of technology in the future and their dependence on it. The family lives in a home filled with machines that do everything for its owners. It is called the Happylife Home. The two children, Peter and Wendy, become fascinated with the nursery which connects to the children telepathically and projects what they imagine. They soon become attached to the room and replace their parents with the electronics. The parents realize the home is taking away from their lives since they are not living to the fullest. They decide to correct their way of life by leaving the home, but it’s too late because the children became addicted and attached. Peter and Wendy kill their parents by locking them in the nursery and letting the machines kill them. Ray Bradbury predicts in the future, people will have luxuries of doing nothing at all because high tech electronics will replace them to do their work. It seems like the future makes peoples lives better because they are at ease and relaxing. However, it is actually wasting their lives away. They replace normal activities in life and even harm its owners. Despite the story being fiction, it can be related to the present and people’s dependency on electronics. “The Veldt” is a very good example of technological changes that deplete peoples’ lives.…

Over the past 50 years, advanced inventions have created and improved the world, and also it changed the period of time when they were created.

    The first essay was written to focus on negative criticism on television, “Television: The Plug-In Drug” by Marie Winn, was about the influence of television on family life and parent-child relationships. Author of children’s books, Marie Winn sees only a negative outcome with television and family. I did not like her article because I think that it’s good to watch TV. You are informed about your surroundings, you learn a lot of things and it doesn’t change family relationships. Winn says that “Home and family has changed in important ways since the advent of television”. I think that family life has changed only because instead of always running trying to do something and staying busy, television gives families a reason to stop and sit in their own silence to relax. Winn’s main point was that television takes away from the quality time spent with families. I feel that quality time that isn’t spent with families is the family member’s faults. Parents should make time for their kids, even if they are watching TV. In the essay Winn states that families do “special” things together “go camping, go to the zoo…take trips and…
