　　There are so many enlightening mottos about the significance of science and technology, and one of them is “Science and technology is the first productive force.” Evidently, the change of our way of life is closely associated with the speedy development of science and technology.

　　As a college student, I deem that if one aims to enjoy a comfortable and convenient life, it is rational for him or her to try new technological products. Typical examples are the New Four Great Inventions of China, including shared bikes, mobile payment, high-speed trains and online shopping. These inventions bring us great convenience, arouse our enthusiasm for China and help us to enjoy life. To be specific, it is shared bikes and high-speed trains that enable our transportation to be easy and efficient. In addition, an increasing number of Chinese people, old and young, find it convenient and cheap to purchase various goods from the Internet.

　　Thus, it is of great necessity for everyone to support the advance in science and technology, since most of us have come to realize the positive effects of this trend. (183词)
