If we do not have a TV or radio, we can nott get exact information about the world. If we don’t have a car, we can’t go too far. However, the most important thing for me is the airplane. If we did not have airplanes, we could not go to abroad. Next, is electricity. It is one of the important power sources for using technology. Electricity is made in many ways.
