Journal # 1


Jules (Lu Tao)

When I was a middle school student, I did not know what a smartphone is. But now, I can use smartphone do many thing such as read books, take photos, and even pay my bill. As far as I am concerned, smartphone is a tool that can help me simplify my life style. I use different apps to achieve my needs. For example I use Wechat to communicate with my friends, or search cookbook online by Google Chrome, are not buy some real cook books. However, smartphone also made some trouble for me. Smartphone based on some advanced operating system that they can permit different apps installed on the smartphone. Sometimes, the system is not very friendly with some apps such as although I set silent mode, some apps still have tweeting when I was sleeping. Usually, I use my phone 2 or 3 hours each day. And when I fell bored, I will reach for my phone. I think smartphone changed the world in last few years. On the one hand, before we have these smartphone, the function of cellphone is limited that just include call, message, and some others basic function. Nowadays, smartphone integrate a lot of function such as books, video, television and GPS. In the other hand, smartphone have been changed our social relationship. People are conditioned to still home use their smartphone to check social media apps, rather than have a walking trip with their family at a sunny day. Smartphone help people close with stranger, but we need to know the real social relationship is very important for us.

  1. I agree with our last sentence very much, although I concede smart phone is changing our world quickly and making our life being much better and convenient, it does influence our close relationship with our friends and family, you must experience such thing----when we are having our lunch or dinner together , every one is playing their phones rather than chatting with each other, this is a bad thing.
