An airplane is a form of transportation that has changed people's lives Thanks to the plane, our lives are now faster, more exciting, and more convenient that before
You cannot deny that a plane is fast For example, the Concorde flies at supersonic speed A businessman can leave Paris at 11 a.m in the morning and arrive in New York at 8 a.m the same morning in time for a day's work Many business people in Europe will fly to London for a noon meeting and then return home to Rome or Madrid for dinner
It is always exciting to take a plane trip When you take a trip by plane, you know that you might cross many time zones, many oceans, and many countries When you get off the plane, you could
be in a place that speaks a different language A plane is like a magician's trick You get in a box and you come out somewhere totally different
Nothing can beat the convenience of a plane In the old days, it might take you days to do what the plane can do it an hour Boats, for example, only leave on certain days of the week and take a long time to get to their destination Planes give you the option to leave several times a day and get you to your destination quickly
Although other forms of transportation may be more comfortable, none has changed the way we
do business and live our lives more than the plane Thanks to the speed, excitement, and
convenience of the planes, our lives are richer

The modern society have been changed by the enormous impact of the invention of the
transportantion, such as the automobile, which has become indispensable in the daily live The automobiles are so popular that almost every family or even everyone has one Since the function and effect of automobile is known by everyone In this essay, I would discuss another invention of the transportantion that is as important as the automobile in the modern society, the plane As far
as I am concerned, these are three conspicous aspects as follows
The main reason for my propensity to choose plane is that plane is the vehicle used by people most frequently Usually, people drive car in short way, while they take plane in long travel The most important reason people choose it for long distance is that the speed of plane is much faster than others The invention of plane create a compeletely new live Nowadays, we can travel
around the earth within twenty-four hours, that is something say we can reach any place of the word in one day And there are many people who live in a place and work in the other city even the other nation, for the plane can bring them go home in weekend
Another reason can be seen by every person is that plane is known as one of the most safe and convenient vehicles It is reported from the relative data that the accident ratio of the plane is far under that of the train, the ship, the automobile and any other else With the developenment of the hi-tech, faster, safer and more comfortable plane are made.Since the supersonic plane appears,
Trang 2both speed and security rapidly improve.Furthermore, new type plane provide various of the

Who would disagree with the statement "progress is good"? Without progress, there would be no change Without progress, there would be no change in our economy, our standard of living, or our health
Progress is required to keep the economy moving forward New products need to be developed; new services need to be created Without progress, our economy would standstill There would be
no change Without progress, there would be no supermarkets with fresh produce brought in from all over the world
Progress is required to improve our standard of living Our homes today are more efficient and use less natural resources thanks to improvement in home construction techniques Our clothes are warmer and safer thanks to developments in textile manufacturing Our educational system is better thanks to the use of the computers and the Internet
Progress is required to improve the health of the world population Without progress, there would
be no vaccines against deadly diseases like smallpox Without progress, there would be increased infant mortality Thanks to progress, our lives are longer and healthier
Progress is a natural state Without it, we would not evolve Without it, our economy, our
standard of living, and our health would deteriorate Who could deny the necessity of progress?

Is progress always good? Scientific progress brings us many conveniences and advanced
machines, such as computers, automobiles, and so on Progress seems to have made life more simple and more comfortable But if we analyze it carefully, we will find that progress is not
always good
Modern industry brings us more convenient life But at the same time, some problems appear For example, "the green-house effect" is a very serious problem that scientists try to solve it as early
as possible It increases the earth temperature and some icebergs melt and the sea level becomes higher and higher gradually Maybe someday the sea will swallow some big cities nearby the sea Progress enhances the product efficiency, but it also brings us an other serious problem-pollution Pollution is so serious that ecological balance is damaged and many animals and plants lose their
Trang 3living environment and become extinct eventually The air is polluted and it is not suitable for people The water is also polluted and people are facing deficiency of drinking water in some countries
Progress makes the speed of life faster and faster because of the usage of computers and
automatic machines People have to work faster than before and it makes them nervous More and more physical and psychological problems disturb people's life Many people do not have time for recreation
From the above statements, it can be concluded that progress is not always good It has its own negative influences on our life Maybe those problems can be solved by more progress

Alll over the world people are welcoming progress into their home, their business and their
education Larg corporations use progress in technology, industries use progress in their
manufacture process How ever, when we think about in larger picture, it is clear that progress can
be damaging in some cases We as asociety have to check ourselfs once and a while to make sure, that the progress is not making to much damage to certain communities around the world
Speaking as a member of avery spacial community called a Kibbutz, which used to provid to our poeple from the agriculture products we grow in our own feilds, and sell in markets When
progress came to our country, many industries got stronger, and farmers like ourselfs found their selfs without a future for their agriculture investment, that they worked and built for years In this case progress has damaged a larg community, and made them face a hard finencial fueture
Another unfourtunate veiw on progress, is the use of computures to entertain children In the year
2000, when every home has adopted the progress in computures, children find themselfs sitting long hours infront of the compure instead of playing outside or inviting friends over This way of spending to much time on the computure is very damaging to thier social skills, and even a reason for weight gain amoung young children
After looking at a differnt aspects of progress, i can say clearly, that progress has to be supervised That in some cases progress is making a big damage for our society People sould welcome
progress in many feilds of life, but always have your eyes open for littel "land mines" that could make an unreversable situation and future

The nobleness & the use of progress in any field, to an individual, or to the society on the whole, will depend on what use the progress is being put to, and I feel, cannot be generalized as stated above
Progress has been inherent with the human race As the human brain developed, so has progress been achieved, in almost all fields known to man The cultural progress over the ages, have made humans better and made this world, a better place to live in Similarly, scientific progress has been effective in eradicating diseases, providing better food crops, facilitating transportation etc
Literary progress has helped us better document our history and has produced works that have made us think Progress in communication techniques have converged this whole world of ours,
Trang 4into the 'global village'
If we look at the above examples, we see that they are all aimed at the betterment of our world Here progress is being applied for the society's good
The products from the same progress in the various fields, when in wrong hands, wreak havoc in the same society that they are supposed to make better
Sophisticated arms & explosives in the hands of terrorists & children, science of human cloning in the hands of scientists, crop control technologies in the hands of corporations etc., are some of the examples of how progress can go wrong Think of how much better the world would be, without nuclear and biological weapons, without mutated food grains et al Think of how many people would not have died or maimed for life, if there had been no land mines ? After witnessing the destructive use the Dynamite could be put to, Alfred Nobel himself repented his own creation of Dynamite so much that he set up the Nobel prize, to be awarded to people who work for the
betterment of the human society
Therefore, it is my strong contention that progress is only good when it is put to the right use, for the betterment and upliftment of the individual and the society, on a whole Progress put to any ulterior uses should be outrightly condemned

I disagree wholeheartedly that learning about the past has no value for those of us living in the present In fact, the definition of learning includes the idea of an accumulation of experiences from the past Learning can only take place if we make an association between things that have happened in the past or between something in the past and something that we predict will happen
in the future All knowledge that we acquire as we grow is from the past-language, customs,
academic subjects, and so on While it may be helpful sometimes to be able to overlook previous knowledge in order to avoid the constraint conformity, the vast majority of knowledge that we learn is a huge boost-imagine if each of us had to discover by ourselves that 2 + 2 = 4! So, in a very real sense, all learning depends on past events
We are only able to live in this world with our current standard of living because we have learned from the past We receive knowledge from the past and we are able to use it and improve it We examine our actions in the past and we make judgments about what was right and what was
wrong Then, it is hoped, we will attempt to avoid those same mistakes again For example, one of the great mistakes all over the world has been depriving women and the disempowered classes status in society and many industrialized and developing countries all over the world are
attempting to avoid such mistakes both in the present and in the future
Furthermore, all of the knowledge that we have today is a result of all the work of our
predecessors The ancient Greeks developed geometry, which helped other European scientists analyze the solar system, which in turn gave us a new understanding of our place in the universe The great majority of technology today depends directly on several thousands of years of work of past thinkers To ignore the knowledge of the past would be to throw away five thousand years of history and experience
There is, however, some seemingly small, but important value to ignoring the past It is often the case that history or tradition has the effect of constraining our thought in the present and many important philosophical and scientific breakthroughs have only been possible as a direct result of
Trang 5ignoring the past The past, in a sense, can blind us to the truth, we can become bound by
tradition For example, at one time, leading thinkers in Europe thought that the Earth was at the center of the universe and those who disagreed were persecuted as heretics, even Copernicus, who we now know was correct about his heliocentric model of the Solar System However,
scientists were eventually able to break from the past and accept the new model of the universe
In short, learning from and analyzing the past has enormous value for us and life as we know it on Earth today would not be possible without the benefit of thousands of years of history and
accumulated knowledge It is important, however, to ignore the past so that we can make a step forward, and such free thinking should be encouraged, although not at the expense of past
knowledge Learning from the past is something like learning from our parents-in most cases, their past helps us have a better future, but there are times when we need to make a break from the past and make a bold step into an unknown future

I do strongly support the idea that we should keep trying and never stop working for our goals I think this is the most important thing that can help us to achieve our goals I believe that
everybody meets many obstacles in their lives before achieving their goals I have learned the biography of some famous people in the past I found that almost all of them persevered through enormous hardships in order to reach their goals In this essay, I will give you an example of the attempt of a great inventor of the world named Thomas Edison
I am quite sure that everybody knows Thomas Edison He made many inventions during his
lifetime According to his biography, it states that he always met obstacles in order to invent
something However, he still kept trying in order to meet his goals I personally think that this is
Trang 6the most important thing that made him reach his goals Some scientists said that it was impossible
to invent something such as electric light and movie projector However, he could make them success In my opinion, the greatest invention of Edison was electric light I have learned that he got many hardships and failures, but he never gave up He spent about two years to achieve it He used to say that his successes came from hardworking more than luck or fate
In conclusion, I believe that everyone cannot achieve their goals if they always give up when they meet the obstacles and hardships I think that we have to try to solve the problems we will meet I
am quite sure that we can do everything success if we are confident that we can do it and never give it up

"Never, never give up" means to keep trying and never stop working for your goals I think it's a very good piece of advice for all of us
Never stop working for your goals doesn't mean you must be successful; it doesn't even mean that you must achieve your goal, but it's very important to keep it in your mind
You want to be a great basketball player, but you are 1,60m tall; you want to be a great pianist, but what you have studied in the university was physics; you want to establish your own
company, but you are just a clerk in a small company These examples are very common in our real lives
There are enough unfavorable conditions which make our lives difficult, but what important for us
is to make efforts towards your goal or your dream If you have given your best for your goal or your dream, whether you succeed or not, at least you won't leave any regret in your life What's more, who knows, what will happen in the next 10 years?
You might not be a famous basketball player, but you could become a good player in the
basketball-team of your school You might not be a great pianist, but you play the piano very well and enjoy yourself after the heavy work every day You might not be able to establish your own company yet, but you are just collecting experience and knowledge as a good manager, and
maybe in 10 years, you will become the boss of your own company
Few of us have perfect lives, what I want to say is, don't give up working for your goal or your dream If you succeed, you will taste great joy in your life If you don't succeed, you won't have regret in your life because you have given your best Besides, in trying to achieve your goals, you might find out that perhaps your goals are not correct or not practical at all, then you can improve them and make your life more beautiful
