4．Modern inventions have greatly increased people's love of speed.Motor cars cover a hundred miles in a little more than one hour，aircraft cross the world within a day，while computers operate at lightning speed.Indeed，this love of speed seems never-ending.Every year we produce motor cars which go even faster and each new computer is said to save precious seconds in handling tasks.
All this saves time，but at a price.When we lose or gain half a day in speeding across the world in an airplane，our bodies tell us so.We get the uncomfortable feeling known as jet lag（时差反应）：our bodies feel that they have been left behind in another time zone.Again，spending too much time in front of computers results in eye pain or finger pain.Mobile phones also have their dangers.according to some scientists.Too much use may do harm to our brains，a bad result we do not like to think about.
What do we do with the time we have saved then？Certainly not relax.We are so used to constant（连续不断的） activities that we find it difficult to sit and do nothing or even just one thing.jye.ai a time.Perhaps the days are long gone when we might listen quietly to a story on the radio，letting imagination take us into another world Modern inventions have brought us great benefits，but at the same time，we have lost a lot of fun as human beings.There was a time when some people's lives were devoted simply to the farming of the land or the care of cattle.Their lives went on at a much slower speed，and in a familiar pattern.We might admire a way of life like this，yet such a lifestyle will be just a dream for us nowadays.Modern technology has changed everything.
