　　The digital age

　　1. 如今，数字化产品越来越多，如...

　　2. 使用数字化产品对于人们学习工作和生活的影响。

　　Living in the digital age, we are unavoidably exposed to all kinds of digital products, such as digital camera, digital computer, digital television, and so on, which seem to grow in an increasing categories and quantities. Believe it or not, look around yourself and you can, I bet, easily find one or two of these stuffs.

　　Here is a question what kind of influence the digital products play on people's life. Frankly speaking, these modern digital products offer us a more convenient life than that of before. For example, the digital camera makes it never an impossible thing to delete or correct the "unsuccessful" photo of ours, which was highly unlikely with the traditional camera. While, unfortunately, these fashionable digital things are unnoticeably pregnant with a generation more isolated from the real life. It is hard to imagine a man so accustomed to the digital mobile on-line chatting can also have a good ability in the practical communication with others. Finally, too much dependent on the digital things, we human seem to be more indifferent to the real world, which we have to accept though reluctant to admit.

　　Thus, as the generation assailed by all kinds of digital miracles, we might as well initiatively avoid some of them despite efficient and comfort they can supply. Well, please don't forget those old days when you were going to visit an old school friend though there would be a long train journey, which, in today's digital era, has been thoroughly replaced by the digital on-line chatting.
