  The Internet and all other amazing information technology make it extremely easy for you to find any piece of information you seek. Perhaps, it is too easy. There was a time, not so long ago, when you would have to make up for the shortage of your knowledge with imagination. Now, many of those shortages have disappeared. With Facebook, for example, you don't have to imagine where your friends and family members might be and what they might be doing. You can know all the details instantly, with pictures, videos and precise GPS.

  That's all well and good, but what is it doing to your imagination? If you ever stop exercising your physical body, it will become weak and out of shape. In order to live your daily life, you don't have to walk great distances to cut wood or carry heavy objects. There are machines that do all that work for you. Unless you intentionally make the effort to exercise your body, it's probably not going to happen very much.

  In the same way, there are now machines and systems to fill in all the information details you need to know. And if you don't intentionally make the effort to regularly exercise your imagination, what will happen to it? Will it decline in the same way as a muscle that's never used?

  Actually, information technology gives you the opportunity to be even more imaginative if you choose to do so. But the thing is, you have to choose it. Don't just sit there and passively absorb all the information that's being fed to you. Disconnect from what's mostly predictable anyway, and dive into your creative, imaginative essence(本质). You may be a little dull at first, but you are born to imagine and soon you'll feel perfectly comfortable and natural exercising your imagination. Get your imagination in shape, and discover all the new and wonderful things it can bring into your life.

A. Information. B. Imagination. C. Machine. D. Body.

A. Reduce our use of IT. B. Use the brain scientifically.
