he success of industrialization today.Factories have improved
efficiency. Unskillful tasks are left to machines and products are better made
and and produced with greater accuracy than any human hand could ever have
done. However, with the improvements in efficiency also comes the loss of the
personal
Touch when making these products. For example, many handcrafts(手工艺品) are now produced in a factory.
Although this means that supply is better able to increase demand,
now that the supply is quick and efficient, the demand might fall because mass
production lowers the quality of the handicraft and it is difficult to find
unique designs on each item.
Nevertheless, we must not commit the mistake of analyzing progress
only from one point of view. In fact, progress has allowed tradition to keep
up. It is only with progress and the invention of new technology that many old
products can be brought back to their old state. New technology is required for
old products to stay old.
It is people’s attitude towards progress that causes the type of
influence that technology has on society. Technology is flexible. There is no
fixed way of making use of it. Everything depends on people’s attitude. The
worst effects of progress will fall on those who are unable to rethink their
attitudes and views of society. When we accept progress and adapt it to suit
our needs, a new “past” is created.

wild animals like lions, elephants, rhinoceroses(犀牛),
zebras, wild pigs, deer and giraffes.
【3】There is a wild road leading through the park, but nobody is
permitted to walk on the road. Anyone traveling in the park has to go in a car
because wild animals may fiercely attack people. From the car he may see almost
every types of African wildlife. Some of these are getting scarce (稀有的) because people kill them for various reasons. For example,
rhinoceroses are killed for their horns (角), which are

he is attacked. However, he has to prove to the government that he has been
attacked and that he has not fired at a harmless animal.
