Invention
Inventions are created every day because people would like to make life easier. There are famous inventions like the TV and the bicycle. TV provides us with different kinds of information so that we can know more about the world and do better in our subjects. We watch entertainment programs to relax ourselves.
The bicycle is very useful, too. We can go to school or work by bike when there is no bus or subway. It’s not so expensive that most of us can afford it. It makes no pollution, which is good for our environment. What’s more, bicycle riding is a kind of exciting sport which is quite good for our health.
Though there have been many great inventions, I wish to invent a kind of pen which can help us write more quickly and neatly. When we have problems doing our homework or taking exams, it will tell us how to solve them.
