    For example, instead of waiting for taxies at the sidewalk in harsh winter, people could simply touch the screen of their phone with two fingers and use Uber, an application of car service, to call for a car. Just after inputting the information of the destination and departure time, people, within a few minutes, could order a car which will take them to the place they head for. But unfortunately, those individuals living in small cities and remote rural areas never have the chance to enjoy the life described above. Just suppose if the Internet becomes available to them, they could also experience this convenience brought by the internet.
    例如,人们不用在寒冷的冬天站在路边等出租车,而只需要简单地用两个手指触摸手机的屏幕,就可以用一款用车服务程序Uber来叫车。只要输入目的地和出发时间的信息,几分钟内就可以喊到一辆车把他们送往目的地。不幸的是,那些生活在小城市和偏远农村地区的人们没有机会去享受上述生活。假设他们可以使用互联网,他们也可以体会到互联网带来的魅力。

    In 2008, for example, Harvard’s library boasted over 16 million volumes; the Bodleian Library of Oxford University has over 11 million items. Despite the easy availability of research tools on the Internet, a “bricks and mortar” campus library remains a haven for students who relish the thought of turning the pages of a work by Shakespeare or Stephen Hawking in an atmosphere of quiet contemplation.

    In Beijing, Chinese capital, citizens are suffering from the haze weather as many as at least 100 days per year and this phenomenon is increasingly severe without any sign of improvement. For some people, a law asking those factories to stop discharging the exhaust to the air could solve the haze problem easily. But the fact is this problem is more complicated than it seems since many factors such as productivity, profits and employment rate must be taken into consideration before there is a final decision. Just imagine, if all the factories are prohibited to pollute our environment, how many factories would stop their production and even close down?
    在中国的首都北京,市民们正在遭受的雾霾天气每年可达100多天,而这种现象越来越重,一点改善的现象都没有。一些人的建议是,一项可以让这些工厂停止向大气中排放废弃的法律可以很容易的阻止雾霾问题的发生。但事实上这个问题要比看上去更加复杂,因为在做最终的决定前,其中的很多因素例如生产率,利润以及就业率的问题都必须被考虑。想象一下,如果所有的工厂都被禁止污染环境,有多少工厂会被停止生产甚至是关闭呢?

    Tobacco companies in the United States were the first to taste such kind of problem as they were banned of promoting cigarettes or relevant equipment from 1920s. The reasons is not that tobacco industry made eye-hurting ads, however, their ads were so successful that the number of smokers skyrocketed during the decade between 1910-1920. At that time, nice pictures with beautiful actress from Hollywood smoking with graceful gesture or handsome actor popping cigars with his guns firing at his enemies attracted millions of people to buy smokes all over the country. However, the time did not last long. The drastic increase of the number of people who got lung cancer or other respiratory diseases eventually made the government to cut off the release of the ads from cigarette companies. Such action was then followed by many industrial countries and became a common practice of the world.
