BAD IMPACT OF TECHNOLOGY IN HUMAN LIFE





             Technological development is now very advanced. Many of the benefits that we can feel from the current technological advances. Technological advances like the internet, machines and computers can ease our lives, both in the move or communicate. The technology is more advanced at this time also allows us to live in perform an activity. We can also save time with the help of technology. Such as mobile phones, internet, household tools made of machines and others.
However, technology also has adverse effects, namely a lot of crime happens, pornography and human decadence. And the terrible effects can be felt in terms of health. Here is an explanation of the negative impact of technology in human life.






1. Easily happened crimes

Many of us see rampant crime is everywhere now. These crimes committed by perpetrators with the help of technology. With it they would be easier to perform various acts of crime, such as fraud, terrorism, kidnapping, bombing and others. Facebook is one social networking site on the internet is used by criminals to look for prey. As we can see a few months ago, in case of sale of women, and identity fraud on facebook. Increasingly sophisticated technological advances are also used by terrorists to assemble a bomb. Many people who are experts in technology, such as computer experts use their knowledge to things that are bad. Such as ATM burglary incidents or customer funds in a bank. So the technology is not just as a human friend, but also can be a dangerous enemy to man.
For that in using the technology we must be careful, lest we become targets of crime, such as using atm safely, that does not store the pin number in places that easy to know people. Using social networking sites with caution, do not be too trusting with people who are newly recognized. Especially in cyberspace.





2. Pornography
Advances in technology greatly facilitates the spread of pornography action throughout society, including children under age. Through the Internet, people can download and watch videos or pornographic images. Not only that, a lot of pornography that they take action. As we see, the people who commit acts of pornography that utilize the technology in action. They record the actions of pornography that they have created and uploaded to the internet, and spread into the middle of the community. They perform acts of pornography that, because they are interested to try it after seeing the videos. People also use mobile phones as a place for distributing pornography. Most of them are students. Advanced mobile phone and has complete facilities for video and bluetooth allows students to view pornographic videos.








3. Moral decline

The more rapid advancement of technology can make a moral that is in humans was reduced or lost. Moral decay that occurs in the community that happens when people just wants love. For the love that they use every means, even to perform acts crimes. Technology can give pleasure in human life, but it can make people blind with pleasure. So become a human being is immoral and thirst with pleasure and ease of living alone. With advanced technology, many people now no longer keep his words. Many of them say dirty on the internet or in sms. It is because they have nothing to fear if someone else is offended by his words. Moral values
​​in them are gone with the sophisticated technology.
4. Health
Adverse effects of the technology also can we feel in our health. As the effects of radiation or radiation hp signals from other electronic goods. Radiation from such technology can cause problems in our health such as cancer can get sick. Even the overuse of computer, TV or phone can damage our eyes.
The impact of the technologies in life there are good and bad. Adverse effects of technology such as crime, pornography and decadence. If we can use that technology to something useful in life, why should we use to be a bad thing?. Good or bad depending on how the impact of the technology we use advances in technology that exist in people's lives

Conclusion
So, after wrote a paper about it, entitled devastating impact of this technology in human life. I Can be concluded that the technology is not always good for humans. Will but also bad. We can see the many crimes happened through and with the help of technology. And pornography is easily spread among people. So that they can become perpetrators of pornography as well after that. The impact of technology also leads to moral decay in the center of community life. And also argues against the negative health. Where can cause cancer of the influence of radiation.

Bahkan, untuk menjadi seorang geisha, harus belajar dulu di sekolahnya.

para geisha diajarkan untuk menjadi artis yang terhormat dan bisa menghibur mata para lelaki terhormat itu. dengan balutan kimono yang terbuka di bagian punggung, wajah seputih salju mereka menari dan menuangkan teh.

The Ant and the Grasshopper







In a field one summer's day a Grasshopper was hopping about,
chirping and singing to its heart's content.  An Ant passed by,
bearing along with great toil an ear of corn he was taking to the
nest.

  "Why not come and chat with me," said the Grasshopper,
"instead of toiling and moiling in that way?"

  "I am helping to lay up food for the winter," said the Ant,
"and recommend you to do the same."

  "Why bother about winter?" said the Grasshopper; we have got
plenty of food at present."  But the Ant went on its way and
continued its toil.  When the winter came the Grasshopper had no
food and found itself dying of hunger, while it saw the ants
distributing every day corn and grain from the stores they had
collected in the summer. Then the Grasshopper felt regret for his idleness.

Moral Value      : Don’t be an idle person. Prepare   something before it necessity

EMMA by Jane Austen




About the author;



         Jane Austen is an author of novel in romantic era. She was born on Desember 16th, 1775 and died on July 18th, 1817.  She was an author from England and wrote some novel like “Emma”. she wrote Emma in  January of 1814, and she finished it in March of 1815.  This novel ever made in a movie in 1995, 1996 and 2010.
This novel tells about a story of figure Emma who is the hero of Austen’s novels that has sufficient funds. But, she didn’t wants to get married. But in this novel  she must deal with some man who wants to get her love.

The summary of Emma

“Although conviced that she herself will never marry, Emma Woodhouse, a precocious twenty-year-old resident of the village of Highbury, imagines herself to be naturally gifted in conjuring love matches. After self-declared success at matchmaking between her governess and Mr. Weston, a village widower, Emma takes it upon herself to find an eligible match for her new friend, Harriet Smith. Though Harriet’s parentage is unknown, Emma is convinced that Harriet deserves to be a gentleman’s wife and sets her friend’s sights on Mr. Elton, the village vicar. Meanwhile, Emma persuades Harriet to reject the proposal of Robert Martin, a well-to-do farmer for whom Harriet clearly has feelings.

Harriet becomes infatuated with Mr. Elton under Emma’s encouragement, but Emma’s plans go awry when Elton makes it clear that his affection is for Emma, not Harriet. Emma realizes that her obsession with making a match for Harriet has blinded her to the true nature of the situation. Mr. Knightley, Emma’s brother-in-law and treasured friend, watches Emma’s matchmaking efforts with a critical eye. He believes that Mr. Martin is a worthy young man whom Harriet would be lucky to marry. He and Emma quarrel over Emma’s meddling, and, as usual, Mr. Knightley proves to be the wiser of the pair. Elton, spurned by Emma and offended by her insinuation that Harriet is his equal, leaves for the town of Bath and marries a girl there almost immediately.
Emma is left to comfort Harriet and to wonder about the character of a new visitor expected in Highbury—Mr. Weston’s son, Frank Churchill. Frank is set to visit his father in Highbury after having been raised by his aunt and uncle in London, who have taken him as their heir. Emma knows nothing about Frank, who has long been deterred from visiting his father by his aunt’s illnesses and complaints. Mr. Knightley is immediately suspicious of the young man, especially after Frank rushes back to London merely to have his hair cut. Emma, however, finds Frank delightful and notices that his charms are directed mainly toward her. Though she plans to discourage these charms, she finds herself flattered and engaged in a flirtation with the young man. Emma greets Jane Fairfax, another addition to the Highbury set, with less enthusiasm. Jane is beautiful and accomplished, but Emma dislikes her because of her reserve and, the narrator insinuates, because she is jealous of Jane.
Suspicion, intrigue, and misunderstandings ensue. Mr. Knightley defends Jane, saying that she deserves compassion because, unlike Emma, she has no independent fortune and must soon leave home to work as a governess. Mrs. Weston suspects that the warmth of Mr. Knightley’s defense comes from romantic feelings, an implication Emma resists. Everyone assumes that Frank and Emma are forming an attachment, though Emma soon dismisses Frank as a potential suitor and imagines him as a match for Harriet. At a village ball, Knightley earns Emma’s approval by offering to dance with Harriet, who has just been humiliated by Mr. Elton and his new wife. The next day, Frank saves Harriet from Gypsy beggars. When Harriet tells Emma that she has fallen in love with a man above her social station, Emma believes that she means Frank. Knightley begins to suspect that Frank and Jane have a secret understanding, and he attempts to warn Emma. Emma laughs at Knightley’s suggestion and loses Knightley’s approval when she flirts with Frank and insults Miss Bates, a kindhearted spinster and Jane’s aunt, at a picnic. When Knightley reprimands Emma, she weeps.
News comes that Frank’s aunt has died, and this event paves the way for an unexpected revelation that slowly solves the mysteries. Frank and Jane have been secretly engaged; his attentions to Emma have been a screen to hide his true preference. With his aunt’s death and his uncle’s approval, Frank can now marry Jane, the woman he loves. Emma worries that Harriet will be crushed, but she soon discovers that it is Knightley, not Frank, who is the object of Harriet’s affection. Harriet believes that Knightley shares her feelings. Emma finds herself upset by Harriet’s revelation, and her distress forces her to realize that she is in love with Knightley. Emma expects Knightley to tell her he loves Harriet, but, to her delight, Knightley declares his love for Emma. Harriet is soon comforted by a second proposal from Robert Martin, which she accepts. The novel ends with the marriage of Harriet and Mr. Martin and that of Emma and Mr. Knightley, resolving the question of who loves whom after all”( sparknotes, 2012 )
