Technological Innovations Are Changing Our Lives
Believe it or not, technology has left a mark on our lives. Previously, you had to go out to get food, and now you can order online and get it delivered to your doorsteps. In the beginning, people were doubtful about spending money on a product without seeing it face to face, but now more than 90% of them prefer online shopping.
Every person is surrounded by technology in a way. A typical example is Internet of Things (IoT). It introduces the features of smart homes where you can turn lights on and off through your smart phone. Similarly, it allows you to lock the doors of your entire house by making a few clicks. Hence, besides making lives easier, it is promoting a secure environment at home.

Culture Understanding
Culture Understanding
There have been many great inventions that change the way we live and allow us to do things we have never dreamed of. The first great invention was the wheel. This invention made it easier to carry heavy things and to travel long distances. The four great inventions of ancient China greatly promoted（促进） the development of our economy, politics and culture at that time and fundamentally（根本地）advanced world civilization as well.
In the 19th century, many great inventions were made. Among them were the camera and the light bulb. There were more great inventions in the early 20th century, such as the plane, and the movie with sound（有声电影）. Nylon（尼龙） came out in the 1930s and changed the kind of clothes people wear.
