问题     Thanks to great advancements in technology, we can have easier access to information nowadays. The richness in information endows us with more open windows to the outside world than ever before. On the other hand, we are so overloaded with information today that we have become less able to see the whole picture of the world around us. Do you think today’s abundance of information brings us more blessings than curses or vice versa? Write an essay of about 400 words.
    You should supply an appropriate title for your essay.

答案 The Advantages of Rich Information Living in this "Information Age" , we are overwhelmed with information, rushing from newspapers, books and magazines as well as the television and the Internet. The gushing news envelops us with such an unprecedented force that it becomes much easier for us to search information on almost any topic. Hemingway’s famous sentence—no man is an island, entirely of itself—describes the reality of our time. Though the large amount of information has also brought us some problems, as far as I am concerned, the merits of the abundant information outweigh its demerits. Thanks to the convenience brought by the rich information, life offers more enlightenment to our metaphysical world. Living in the vortex of message-laden space that is riddled with springs of information renewed almost every minute, we open the window to hybrid ideas through which we may see far beyond our own narrow scopes. The more useful messages we get, the wider our horizons will become, and the deeper we will penetrate into the universe outside and inside. Only in this way can we delve into the ungraspable phantom of our mind and make out of it the self-revelation and release. If always locked in the single cell of one’s small world, one risks reiterating the journey whose ends are spiritual impasses as it tenders us nothing but a reservoir of repeated ideas of a metaphysical desperado. Rich information not only storms our narrow souls, but also brings us tangible benefits. Physically, the increase of information endows us with a much easier life. To begin with, the bountiful messages save us from the devouring consumption of our precious time, money and energy. For example, if we want to purchase certain goods, advertisements of all sorts can offer us ready information on the latest models of novelties through which we needn’t bother to search one shop after another. Besides, information via the Internet on the desired merchandise provides us with more than one indexes. Introduction which is conveyed by words and pictures by the sellers on several versions of similar goods as well as feedback information from the buyers often give us a clear guidance in today’s confusing markets. All in all, the explosion of information at a nuclear level presents us a diet of pluralistic and exotic dishes that we could ever imagine. In addition to the physical conveniences it brings about, it usurps our freewheeling spirit and teems it with deeper fathom of the understanding of life. Let us bathe in this land of refreshing milk and honey and make the best out of it!
