       Technology is an important part of life. With it we can do many things easily and quickly. It can help us in many ways. Man used to cut down trees with hand saw(锯). But now we can cut them down in a few minutes by using electric saw. In the past, if we had something important to tell our friends, we had to go to his or her house to tell them. Nowadays (现今，时下), we can give him or her a telephone call using the telephone or mobile phone. It is more convenient (方便的) and quickly. Many years ago people had to get the information they wanted by looking through a lot of books. In this way, they could become tried easily and they usually wasted too much time. Today, we can use the computer to help us . If we search the Internet, we can get all the things we want. Everything will become a piece of cake.

     I believe that with the development of technology, our life will become better and better.
