Much of human existence consists of efforts aimed at making sure that things dont go wrong, fall apart, break down, or stop running until a decent interval has elapsed after their manufacture.(Para.1)-People spend much of their lifetime trying hard to keep things in good shape. They think a product, after leaving its factory, should last at least for a reasonably long period before ceasing to work.2. But gadgets and sampling alone will never do the trick since these items are also subject to Murphys Law.(Para.1)- Quality-control instruments and testing devices are also governed by Murphys Law, so they are not reliable.3. A single visit to a museum which displays artifacts used by simple preindustrial societies is sufficient to dispel the notion that quality is dependent on technology.(Para.2)-Look at the artifacts of the pre-industrial era exhibited in a museum and you will see that technology is not the factor that decides the quality of these items.4. In unskilled or uncaring hands a handmade basket or boat can fall apart quickly as basket or boats made by machines.(Para.3)-If a handmade basket or boat is made by an inexperienced or irresponsible worker, it may break down as easily as machine-made baskets or boats.5. I rather think that the reason we honor the label “handmade” is because it evokes not a technological relationship between producer and product but a social relationship between producer and consumer.(Para.3) -My opinion is that it is the social relationship between producer and consumer rather than the technological relationship between producer and product that makes handmade items so highly regarded.Unit 9 Where Is the News Leading Us?1. The other was a newsman to the core tough , aggressive, and savvy in the ways and means of solid reporting. (P. 1) The other was a newspaperman through and through - uncompromising, energetic, and intelligent about how to report reliable news based on facts.2. The news media seem to operate on the philosophy that all news is bad news. Why? Could it be that the emphasis on downside news is largely the result of tradition the way newsmen are accustomed to respond to daily events? (P.5)The different ways of providing news, i. e. , the newspaper, television, and radio seem all to follow the belief that all news is bad news. Why is this so? Could it be because people are used to dwelling on negative news as a rule and because newspaper people are generally sensitive to such news when facing everyday happenings?3. I am not suggesting that “positive” news be contrived as an antidote to the disasters on page one. Nor do I define positive news as in-depth reportage of functions of the local YMCA.(P.9) I do not mean to propose that we make up some good news and use it as a remedy for the catastrophes reported on the front page. Neither do I consider good news as a thorough and detailed news story about how the local YMCA operates.4. News people provide us with the only picture we have of ourselves and of the world. It had better be a true portrait and not a caricature for it is this picture on which we will base our decisions and around which we will plan our future. (P.11)What the news media report on us and on the world is the only information about ourselves and about the world we get. Such reportage had better be faithful to our life - and not be a distortion - because we must rely on the truthful picture of our life to make our decisions and plan our future.5. The acquired culture is not transmitted in our genes. The good life in the good society, though attainable, is never attained and possessed once and for all. What has been attained will again be lost if the wisdom of the good life in a good society is not transmitted.”(P.12) The knowledge that you come to possess by your own efforts over a long period of time does not become part of your inborn character. You may be able to earn the good life in a good society, but such good life cannot be yours permanently. If the understanding of the good life in a good society is not passed on, you will lose what you have earned.Unit 10 Things: The Throw-away Society1. Little girls adore Barbie because she is highly realistic and eminently dress-upable (Para.l)-The reason why Barbie appeals so much to little girls is that she looks just like a real person in real life who can be dressed up in the way they wish.2. Moreover, Mattel announced that, for the first time, any young ladywishing to purchase a new Barbie would receive a trade-in allowance for her old one. (Para.2)-Moreover, Mattel made public that, for the first time, all girls desirous of buying a Barbie from its company were to be given the right of turning in their old dolls in exchange for new models at a reduced price.3. But increasingly, it is the te
