【正确答案】The Digital Age
There is no doubt that this new century is becoming an age of digital products, the newly-invented facilities supported by digital technology. These products have found their way into people's life almost overnight. Yet they have produced such a tremendous impact on us.
The positive effects of the digital products are obvious. For one thing, they have brought us great conveniences in our life. For example, We can download whatever we need into MP3 and take them wherever we go, which enables us to enjoy music or study foreign languages whenever and wherever we like. For another, they have made life more colorful. With digital video cameras at hand, everyone can become a director and records all the sweet moments in our life, such as the birthday party of his kids and parents, the wedding ceremony of his beloved, or even a spring picnic in the park. These digital products have thus greatly enriched our life.
However, for all the benefits brought about by the digital products, their negative effects should not be overlooked. They have made it easier to violate people's privacy and may also lead to more breach of copyright. And what is worse is that the over-dependence on them for fun may result in less effective interpersonal communication. I think we should realize all their positive and negative effects and learn to live with the changes they have brought to our life.
