▶ Your Answer: Undoubtedly, politics play a significant role in many people’s daily
lives in many of the places where they work or play. Some people think that
students were more interested in politics while others do not. Both sides may
have their own reasons to support their views. If I were asked to choose one, I
would say that students who live in modern society have more interest in
politics than in the past. There are several reasons as follows.
To begin with, today's developed technology allows students to have more interest and easier access to politics. Internet is equipped with many
functions that help people receive information on politics efficiently and
quickly such as Youtube or NPR News homepage. On the other hand, in the past,
students were not able to have updated information on politics quickly because
it was off-line that took one or two days. Having information on politics by
today’s technology is likely to bring a better result in life. For example, in
2002, the American government announced that they would decrease its funding on
education and increase its usage in military services. Many students around
nations were able to view this new policy by watching Youtube live immediately.
Many students around the nation gathered together and started to protest against this new policy with activists rallying in front of City Halls. They
demonstrated to persuade the government to reconsider the allocation of its
funding on the ground that this new policy is not one of their priorities.
Fortunately, due to Youtube that helped students receive government announcement
with new policy lively and protest against with it, the government re-announced
that they would not change its funding on education. Without modern technology
for providing in politics efficiently, students would not have been able to
achieve the government’s reconsideration for its funding on education.
In short, I strongly believe that the advantages of providing information
of politics by modern day's technology far outweigh its disadvantages for the
reasons I have mentioned above.
All in all, the importance of providing information
of politics by modern day's technology cannot be overestimated in life. |
