They are exciting, amazing and can even change our life. But have all these developments really improved the quality of our life?Picture this: Youre rushing to finish your homework on the computer. Your mobile phone rings, a QQ message from your friend appears on the screen, the noise from the television is getting louder and louder. Suddenly the computer goes blank, and you lose all your work. Now you have to stay up all night to do it again. Do you feel happy?Inventions have speeded our life so much that they often leave us feeling stressed and tired. Why do you think people who live far away from noisy cities, where they have no telephones, no cars, even no any electricity, often seem to be happier? Perhaps it is because they live simpler life.One family in the UK went” back in time” to see what life was like without all the inventions we have today. The grandparents, with their daughter,and grandsons Benjamin, 10, and Tohomas, 7, spent nine weeks in a 1940s house. They had no washing machine, microwave, computer or mobile phone.The grandmother, Lyn, said,” The more things you have, the more difficult life becomes.” The boys said they fought less. Probably, they said, it was because there was less to fight over, such as their computer. Benjiamin also noticed that his grandmother had changed from being a “ trendy, beer-drinking granny, to one who cooked things”.1. Why do we all like new inventions according to the passage?_2. What does the writer want to show in Paragraph 4?_3. What does the underlined word” they” replace here?_4. What does the writer think of the people who live far from the noisy cities?_5.
