Technology has linked us in ways we never could have imagined. We have the power to use social networking sites to communicate with friends across the country or the world at our fingertips.

However, a recent study showed that despite their best efforts, the majority of respondents have failed to turn off their

smartphone or tablet computers while they have been away.

The two sections reveal that people are now so addicted to modern technology that they find it hard to give themselves digital detox, even though they have tried their best.
Nowadays, it is common that people use electronic devices almost everywhere, because it is convenient for people to carry such devices.

However, the disadvantages are also obvious. They will distract us from our study and life. Besides, using them too much will do harm to our health.
In my opinion, the most important thing is how to use it in a right way and do not disturb others. In addition, we should learn to be self-discipline and not be a slave to it. (150 words)
