GRE写作论证论据素材大全—数字革命的后果

　　数字革命的后果

 

　　The progressive digitization of mass media and telecommunications content begins to blur earlier distinctions between the communication of information and its processing, as well as between people and machines. Digitization makes communications from persons
to machines, between machines, and even from machines to persons as easy as it is between persons. Also blurred are the distinctions among information types: numbers, words, pictures, and sounds, and eventually tastes, odors, and possibly even sensations;
all might one day be stored, processed, and communicated in the same digital format.

　　On a societal level, the digital and ICT revolutions make possible better and cheaper access to knowledge and information. This speeds up transactions and processes and reduces their cost, which in turn benefits citizens and consumers.

　　The ability of ICTs to traverse time and distance allows human beings to interact with each other in new ways. Distance is no longer a consideration.
