An Essay about Technological Change
I think that the technology its going to be more better because the scientist are discovering the world and they are discovering the planets to see if someone can survive. We destroy the world, with wars, and contamination.
Some parts of the world there is not water and they need it. Some scientist say that some parts of United States probably can full of water.
In the future it’s going to be with more different and advances things. Probably the electronics can be more different.
May be the cars can fly like airplane and we don’t have to take airplane to go to another country. The scientist try to find medicines to people with dangerous diseases.
Sometimes the scientist try to do everything possible. Scientist say that some animal blood served to save many people. The technology can save us. people invent machines that can help people walk.

How one should nevergive up?
My mom always tells me that, when somebody has a dream they have to fight for it, because everything in this world can accomplished and we never have to give up. If we want to have a better future, we have to seize our dreams. Some people think that the dreams can be seized because when you want you can get it.
That's why people came to this country because they don't want to give up, they want to be something in their future, something that's going to help them when they need it. There is a lot of famous people that never give up, maybe they had problems but they can overcome them. Famous people don't need help, or money because they are famous and they have everything they want.
Some people don't care about their future that's why they are in gangs and they use drugs and alcohol. Somo of them live in the streest. They don't work, and they are only dedicated to robbing. But some of them don't give up, they fight for their future. Some of them start to go to programs that can help them to progres and also recieve jobs.
One of my friends had same problem but he didn't give up and his mom now is proud of him because he could progres.
