Мое сочинение по английскому :-))
Вот, надо что-то про себя рассказать и написать для презентации на курсах, завтра. Вот на что хватило меня. :-)) О своих хобби. Очень казуальный текст, на более сложный нет пока особо знаний.
I love life and people. So I’ve got many hobbies. I am keen on philosophy, literature, poetry in particularly, history and politics… But today I’m going to tell you about one of my main hobbies, about technologies for human enhancement. (improvement).
Certainly, on the one hand, technological progress has done a lot of good, but on the other, it’s done a lot of harm. There are many good and clever books about it and not all of them are pessimistic.
I suggest we speak about the bright side of technological progress.
I think that technologies are changing our life and we must just look for right news and apply them for us.
I have been interested in this topic for four years only but my life has changed absolutely.
First of all I bought the robotic vacuum cleaner “Roomba” and I haven’t known what means “hard housework” since that time. It saves time.
I love this little robotic insect that looks like a big ladybird. My life has become easier.
Then I changed my mobile phone and I bought a phone with a headset. I noticed that it became easier to communicate with people.
Then we bought Segway. Segway - this is the first electric vehicle with a gyroscopic balancing system.
There is always room for improvement. Segway allows a person to navigate in the home, office and at streets much faster and easier. It’s worth seeing and it’s worth a try.
I am trying to reconstruct my workplace too. I have two screens (monitors) on my table. It allows me to work more effectively. Then, I bring my laptop from office to home every day. It allows me to use all facilities that I have at my office constantly. It’s such an advantage…
But the most interesting thing in this respect is this clever software. There are many computer programs that help us think better and solve more complex problems such as FreeMind, TreePad, Rationale, ZuluPad, Wiki and cetera. This software makes me more clever and effective.
And I’d like to add, there is the best system of its kind, called Getting Things Done. I spent quite a lot of time and effort to master it. But I got a good result and would recommend trying to master it. This system has been developing twenty years, by an American, David Allen. His book in Russian was published last year and you may also find it online in Russian.
Such methods and software are called methods of strengthening the intellect. Besides, the intensive training courses also can be considered as a method of strengthening the intellect.
And there are a lot of things of that stuff in our big world. I for one, also use a special program to take my medicine. It can remind me in time that it is time to take drugs, and if medicine was sorted to different compartments, everything will be on time and at your fingertips.
By the way, I am seriously studying the possibility of funding the extension of life, as well as drugs for enhancing intelligence.
And what about our entertainment?
New technologies solve the problem. My son plays with robotic dragonfly and with two tough robots. I like to relax with NIA. This is a device for controlling the computer using brain.
But if you want - you can stitch images with the use of LEDs and chips.
So, it isn’t easy to “upgrade” yourself but it is very useful and interesting
