Because of television and worldwide computer connections, people can now become familiar with a great many places that they have never visited. As a result, tourism will soon become obsolete.
a) 首先,电视和网络的确让人们了解了很多他们没有去过的地方。因为时间和金钱有限,大部分人不可能到很多地方旅游,网络和电视给他们提供了方便。人们可以不用出家门就可以看见埃及的金字塔,中国的长城,Hawaii beautiful scene
b) 但是旅游是不能被替代的,旅游有很多好处。第一:旅游的过程能够让人从繁忙的工作中解放出来,暂时忘记生活中华的烦恼,这也是很多人旅游的原因,如在California 的beach,你可以享受阳光,呼吸新鲜空气,游泳,这些都是通过网络办不到的;第二:旅游还能品尝各地的美食,而这些也是在家办不到的,比如中国菜,意大利的pizza,;第三:旅游过程重要的一个是了解当地人的风俗,没有亲身体验和他们交流。很难通过网络。
c) 但是,电视和网络不但不会使旅游业萧条,反而会促进旅游业的发展。应为人们以前了解旅游的途径很少,不知道遥远的地方有那么美丽的景色,所以人们不大可能跑很远,比如出国去旅游。现在不一样了,在人们从电视上了解信息后,可能帮助他们计划旅游;
The absence of choice is a circumstance that is very, very rare.
a) 常识和经验告诉我们没有选择的情况很少,每个人都有自己的思想和行动自由,而且法律也保护个人的自由。日常生活中我们就做出各种选择。有时受到特殊环境的限制或者道德法律的限制。比如士兵服从命令,及时意味着死亡。或者一个破产的企业,不得不偿还债务,及时倾家荡产。
b) 所谓的没有选择只不过是其他的选择不理想,比如一个失业的人不得不做一个不体面demeaning的job,不是他没有选择,而是选择不做不能让他摆脱失业,或者其他工作做不了。
c) A complete lack of choice implies that every persons fate is determined, and that we all lack free will.如果相信命运,则掩盖了个人努力可以改变自己的未来。Hellen keller两岁由于疾病导致了blind,deaf,但是她不向命运低头而是努力学习,掌握了语言,鼓励了无数的人。
