Do you feel more safety in the surveillance society?
Introduction:It is widely believed that the society which use more technology is more safety than before.As Jacqui smith point that,"there had been a 27% fall in robbery and a 26% reduction in burglary in the north-east of England over the last two years."(http://news.bbc.co.uk,2oo8).There are, however, someone's privacy to be violate by this.In contemporary society, a lot of technologies such as CCTV are widely used in our life. It is universully acknowledged that these technologies plays a pivotal role in the life.Lower enforcement agencies through this to track down a lot of criminal. Can it be argued that technology will keep society safe and stable? However, some people said that CCTV and some technology will violate some person's privacy, and also technology has successfully made many individuals overly dependent on it. This is exemplified by several academic experts. They said,"although crime my be reduced in the necessarily small areas covered by the cameras, it is displaced elsewhere."(http://www.bbc.co.uk,2008). Does it will curb proliferation crime well?Do you trust your information is not misused by the organisations of CCTV? Do you think you have some secrets and privacy? This essay will sum up the benefits and drawbacks of using more technology to fight crime, in order to verify whether the society should use technology and science to protect citizens safety.
Paragraph1:More and more technologies use in our life. They play a key role in our life.
--- the fuction of technologies
--- it make people feel more safety
--- it can save a lot of money
Paragraph2:It can help our government to keep society more stable.
--- help police to catch crimial more quickly
--- government can know the society well
Paragraph3:The surveillance society also have some disadvantage.When we use CCTV to record citizens active in the life,the CCTV also record some people's privacy.Everyone don't like the other person to know where you are, what are you doing all the time.And some information will be used by some people to expose in the internet,such as some people's photograph will show in the other people's blog. This active will tarnish some people'sreputation. But when you living in the society,the government have a right to protect you. So you must under the control of the government.In the surveillance society, we will more safety than before.However, in the surveillance society, we will feel not very comfortable.We must pay more attention about our behaviour, and sometimes if we want to do something that doesn't against law, but we don't like other people to know, I think in the surveillance society, it's diffcult to do it.According to JAMES Slack said that,"CCTV is the 21st century equivalent of a night-watchman, but unlike a night-watchman it never blinks, it never takes a break and it never gets bored."(Dally Mail,2008). But with the developing of technology, the government will make some law to protect citizens privacy.So we don't worried about it.
conclusion: I think surveillance society has more advantage than drawbacks. We need more technology to protect citizens.

I also go to the conversation class. I think conversation class is more useful in the study.The teacher often teach me some speaking skill.
If I have some free time ,I often listen the radio by the mobile phone.For example,a judgement is due in a case which could have major implications on how DNA records are stored in the UK's national database. This new is listen from the BBC.
In the Monday,1/12/2008, my good friend told me listen to the radio is very useful to improve my English.May be you didn't know anything when you first listen to the radio, but if you listen more, you can understand more than before.
So I often listen radio now.
seminar
A few days ago, I took part of two seminars.One about media, the other one about seminar. In the mdia seminar, we discuss a lot of media. Some students said TV is very useful in our life. But some people said Tv excessive violent and ponographic contents. Some student TV influence the way we think and behave, for example making us want to buy products.We can see a lot of advertisement in the TV.And a lot of young people spend a lot of time to watch TV. So in my opinion, I think watching more TV is bad for people.
In the second seminars, we discuss about new technologies such as DNA,CCTV in our life.I think the new technologies play a pivotal role in our life. It can keep society safe and stable.May be sometimes it will violate someone's privacy, but I think it has more advantage than disadvantage.
In the first seminar, I didn't know how to say, what to say. But in the second seminar, I do better than before. I don't like to do a good listener. I like to be a good speaker.
I will try my best to do well in the finally seminar in the next week.
