Ways to Get Over Information Explosion
Living in the age of information, we keep inevitably complaining about distraction by the information explosion. As a famous saying goes, "A wealth of information creates a poverty of attention".
No one can deny that the information age has brought us so much convenience that we can acquire relevant information rapidly and precisely via search engines and professional websites. Nevertheless, we are also confused, annoyed, distracted by an incredibly large quantity of information. We will realize that it can be so time-consuming and troublesome to search information online. For example, some information often turns out to be useless and unhealthy or even actually advertisement when we search for something online. Facing a variety of irrelevant information, we often lose ourselves, forget our original plan and get frustrated.
How can we avoid being distracted by irrelevant information? Maybe we can follow following useful tips: Firstly, make a list of what we really want before our searching. This will help us to reject some irrelevant information. Secondly, find some trustful websites and professional sources and then save and categorize them. In this way, we can easily cut down on some useless information and avoid some commercials. (199 words)

克服信息爆炸的方法
在信息時代,我們難以避免會不停地抱怨信息爆炸帶來的紛擾。如同一個諺語說到的:"信息越多,分心越多"。
沒有人能否認(rèn)信息時代帶給我們的便利,通過搜索引擎和專業(yè)網(wǎng)站我們能夠快速準(zhǔn)確地獲取相關(guān)的信息。盡管如此,面對不可思議的龐大的信息來源,我們困惑了、憤怒了、心煩意亂了。我們會發(fā)現(xiàn)在網(wǎng)上搜索信息是如此耗時、如此令人心煩。例如,當(dāng)我們在網(wǎng)上要獲取某個信息時,會搜索出一些無用的、不健康的信息甚至是廣告。面對紛繁復(fù)雜的不相干的信息,我們常常會迷失自己,忘了當(dāng)初要找什么而感到很崩潰。
如何避免不相干的信息帶來的煩惱?也許以下幾個有用的方法我們可以試試:第一,搜索前列一個清單,這樣有助于幫助我們拒絕一些不相干的信息;第二,找出一些可靠、專業(yè)的網(wǎng)站,去收藏和分類。這樣,我們會很容易刪減一些無用的信息和避免一些商業(yè)廣告的出現(xiàn)。
