　　Technology has dramatically changed our world, stretching its legs to all walks of life. As is humorously depicted in the drawing, a boy holding a cellphone in his hand is asking his mother with great surprise. Since his phone can solve all the problems for him, he argues, is it still necessary to go to school?

　　Funny as it seems, this picture poses us a controversial question: “can technology replace traditional school learning?” For centuries, our Chinese have adhered to the public wisdom: school where education is provided is indispensable in our development. Nevertheless, there is a growing recognition that technology plays an extremely important role in our study, which we can hardly ignored. Nowadays, when children have questions, “baidu” instead of “teacher” will be the first to come to their minds。

　　To my knowledge, school learning should go hand in hand with technology. While cellphones do help in solving school problems, they cannot have answers to all the questions, such as “how to become a real man”， “how to make real friends”. Schools can shape our personality and allow us to adapt to the real world。

　　How impressive the cartoon is in describing the most widespread social phenomenon concerning the independence of the children. Let’s take a closer look at the drawing, the girl told her mother she was accepted by the university of her mother’s choice with pride. The author’s real purpose is not the drawing itself, but to lead us to secure what hides behind the picture。

　　What are the reasons for it? In the following sentences, I’ll venture to explore the reasons. To start with, the only-one child policy in China has made more and more parents pay much attention to their children that they would like to replace their children to do everything. In addition, parents don’t believe that their children have enough ability to deal with their personal matters and make any decisions. There are some suggestions given to our parents。

　　For one thing, it is quite important for our parents to realize that their children will grow up and have their own ideas as time goes by. For another, children should be encouraged to make some decisions alone so that they are able to pursue what they really want. I contend that our parents should give their children a free hand in some matters to help them to be independent。

　　This picture vividly describes that the person uses a computer in the whole day even when he falls asleep at night. What the cartoon conveys is the impact of computers on people. New products are being invented every minute of every day, all of which will hold sway over people in some respects。

　　However, in all these technologies and products, computers have exerted the most important influence on people. Some people assert that computers have made life more complex and stressful, while some people believe that computers have made life easier and more convenient. Now many of my classmates like to surf the Internet in their free time. I think Internet can bring us both advantages and disadvantages. For example, if I have some trouble studying， I can surf the internet to find more helpful information. However, Internet can make some problems at the same time。

　　In a word, in spite of the fact the computer appears to have made life more complex and stressful, I feel that the advantages are more obvious, which have become an integral part of everyday life。
