It's from the stormy century
The 20th century is a stormy century. The rapid development of science and technology has brought convenience and rapid changes to human life.
With the rapid development of modern science and technology, especially the development of communication technology, communication technology and transportation technology, people all over the world have more and more rapid contacts and exchanges with each other, as if they can communicate face to face, narrowing the distance between time and space on the earth and making international exchanges more frequent and convenient, so the whole earth is like a small village in the vast universe. So the earth is called "global village" figuratively.
The extended material "The Century of Rain" has five natural paragraphs, which can be divided into three parts.
In the first part (1 paragraph), the 20th century is a century for rain.
The second part (paragraphs 2-4) is about the significance of science and technology to human beings.
The third part (the fifth paragraph) points out the main idea of the article-science and technology have changed human life style and will make human life better.
Writing characteristics
In the third and fourth paragraphs, the author skillfully reveals the significance of science and technology to human life by comparing and enumerating concrete examples: without science and technology, human beings can only obey nature. People live in a "farming society" where the sunrise works and the sunset stops, and they can only "pin their good wishes" in mythology; But with science and technology, human beings can transform nature and change their lifestyles.
Heaven is no longer a myth on earth, just a little bit. Modern science and technology have condensed the vast earth into a small "global village". "Science is changing human spiritual and cultural life, and it is also changing human material life". It can be seen that technology plays a great role in changing human life.
In the fifth paragraph, the author quotes the famous words of Bertrand Russell, a British mathematician and philosopher, and points out the main idea of the article: science and technology have completely changed the way of human existence, and it will make human life better.
