One day, a middle-aged man asked a taxi to take him to see Chelsea play Arsenal at football He told the driver "Stamford Bridge", the name of Chelsea's stadium, but he was delivered instead to the village of Stamford Bridge in Yorkshire Of course, he missed the match

What had happened? With the Sat-Nav system in place, the driver in this story felt he did

not need to know where he was going He confidently outsourced the job of knowing this

information to the Sat-Nav Using an Internet search engine takes a broadband user less than a second And with smartphones at hand, people will be online almost all of the time

The same could be true of university education Today, the average student seems not to value general knowledge If asked a factual question, they will usually click on a search engine without a second thought Actually knowing the fact and committing it to memory does not seem

to be an issue, it's the case with which we can look it up

However, general knowledge has never been something that you acquire formally Instead, we pick it up from all sorts of sources as we go along, often absorbing facts without realizing it The question remains, then: is the Internet threatening general knowledge? When I

put that to Moira Jones, an expert in designing IQ tests, she referred me to the story of the

Egyptian god Thoth It goes like this: Thoth offers writing as a gift to the king of Egypt, declaring it an "elixir of memory and wisdom." But the king is horrified, and tells him: "This

invention will induce forgetfulness in the souls of those who have learned it, because they will

not need to exercise their memories, being able to rely on what is written."

Who wants to be a millionaire finalist David Swift, responding to the same question,

recognizes that there was a problem of young people saying: "I don't need to know that", but he

is far more excited about the educational potential of the Internet "There is so much more information out there, giving people opportunities to boost their general knowledge."

After all, the Internet might just help us to forget more and more But meanwhile, the continuing popularity of quizzes and game-shows shows us that general knowledge is strong enough to remain

A Because the Sat-Nav in his car was out of order

D Because the search engine in the taxi failed to work

Most of us have taken a selfie at one time or another, be it a photo of ourselves in a beautiful place, during a performance by our favorite band, or on a memorable night out with friends But today, more and more people are putting their lives at risk in an attempt to get the most shocking pictures to share on social media In several cases, this action has had disastrous consequences

Take, for example, the Spaniard who was killed by a bull while he was taking a selfie during the annual bull run in a village near his hometown, or the Singaporean tourist who died when he fell from cliffs on the coast of Bali Such incidents have led to the death toll from

selfie-related incidents reaching double figures for the first time in 2015, overtaking the number of

victims of shark attacks

Despite the risks, social media is full of pictures featuring near misses that could have been fatal under other circumstances Under the caption 'Most dangerous selfie ever', a woman

posing at a stadium can be seen narrowly avoiding being hit in the head by a baseball

approaching her Yet the photo has received thousands of 'likes', and the comments below it

suggest that this behavior is something to be admired

In response to the increasing threat posed by the selfie, the authorities have started to take action The Russian Interior Ministry, for instance, has launched a public education campaign advising selfie-takers against balancing on dangerous surfaces or posing with their pets, among other things But if instructions like this are really necessary, then perhaps it is about time we asked ourselves which is more important, a 'like' or a life?
