I believe that nowadays, Google makes people distracted in doing their work because people can get any information very easily and quickly. The more people use the Google, the less they are intellectual and use their brains.
In the article named “ The Shallows: What the Internet Is Doing to Our Brains” written by Nicholas Carr, the main idea of that passage is that using Google all the time causes the people to be distracted in addition to lack of being calm and concentration on what they are doing or thinking deeply. The author mentions that it wouldn’t call people are smart if they search many information quickly, but it would call they are if they think very deeply about that information. The author also states that if people are always texting, surfing and Googling, they’ll never have a deep think. Then what else is said in the passage is that Google is providing people all precious information, on the other hand, it makes them think superficially.
It is absolutely true that Google makes me distracted in doing my schoolwork. For example, in my country, although I could not be able to use the net very easily, I used to research what I want to know by using my brain and find out what I want to learn difficultly. As a result, I did everything very well especially my schoolwork because I put all my concentration on only the thing that I focused on. I myself knew that it’s my real abilities and everything I did was valuable. Doing one thing eagerly is better than doing multi-taking at the time. When I came to the State, researching and finding out information in a school are very easy for me because all information are put in the net as well as we can Google that information in an easy way. But I develop my mind less than before and I feel myself I am always distracted. Every time when I sat in front of the computer for study, I always did surfing and Googling instead of doing my schoolwork. It doesn’t work at all if we do the schoolwork and the Googling at the same time.
Nowadays, people regard themself as if they know most of the thing. In fact, they are not aware that they entirely rely on the Google. In work, they find most of the information from Google if a boss asks them to do. In school, not only do students always find articles for their essays, but they also copy them without thinking deeply. Eventually, people forget to use their brain intelluctually and wisely. Without Google, we cannot imagine our life is going to be. Google seems to be a very important part of a human's life. Why does it happen like that?
Because human is a kind of creature that are lazy sometimes and follow an easy way instead of thinking or doing difficultly, our brains are no longer smarter or sharper than it used to be.
