英语沙龙:Information is Power
Information is Power
In such a changing,
complex society formerly simple solutions to informational needs
become complicated.
Many of life’s problems which were solved by asking family members,
friends or colleagues
are beyond the capability of extended family to resolve.
Where to turn for expert information
and how to determine which expert advice to accept
are questions facing many people today.
Adding to societal changes today is an enormous supply of information.
The individual now has more information available than any generation,
and the task of finding that one piece of information
relevant to his or her specific problem is complicated,
time-consuming and sometimes even overwhelming.
Coupled with the growing quantity of information
is the development of technologies
which enable the storage and delivery of more information
with greater speed to more locations than has ever been possible before.
Computer technology makes it possible
to store vast amounts of data in machine-readable files,
and to program computers to locate specific information.
Telecommunication developments
enable the sending of messages via television, radio,
and very shortly,
electronic mail to bombard people with multitudes of messages.
Satellites have extended the power of communications
to report events at the instant occurrence.
Expertise can be shared world wide through teleconferencing,
and problems in dispute can be settled without participants
leaving their homes and/or jobs to travel to a distant conference site.
Technology has facilitated the sharing of information
and the storage and delivery of information,
thus making more information available to more people.
In this world of change and complexity,
the need for information is of greatest importance.
Those people who have accurate, reliable up-to-date information
to solve the day-to-day problems,
the critical problems of their business,
social and family life,
will survive and succeed.
“Knowledge is power”
may well be the most critical requirement of all people.
