[1]We have bigger houses and smaller families; more conveniences, but less time; we have more degrees, but less common sense; more knowledge, but less judgement; more experts, but more problems; more medicine, but less wellness.

　　[2] We spend too recklessly, laugh too little, drive too fast, get to angry too quickly, stay up too late, get up too tired, read too little, watch TV too often, and pray too seldom.

　　[3] We have multiplied our possessions, but reduced our values. We talk too much, love too little and lie too often. We've learned how to make a living, but not a life; we've added years to life, not life to years.

　　[4] We have taller buildings, but shorter tempers; wider freeways, but narrower viewpoints. We spend more, but have less; we buy more, but enjoy it less.

　　[5] We've been all the way to the moon and back, but have trouble crossing the street to meet the new neighbor. We've conquered outer space, but not inner space. We've split the atom, but not our prejudice; we write more, but learn less; plan more, but accomplish less.

　　[6] We've learned to rush, but not to wait; we have higher incomes, but lower morals. We build more computers to hold more information, to produce more copies, but have less communication. We are long on quantity, but short on quality.

　　[7] These are the times of fast foods and slow digestion; tall men and short character; steep profits and shallow relationships. More leisure and less fun; more kinds of food, but less nutrition; two incomes, but more divorce; fancier houses, but broken homes.

　　(1).我们的房子越来越大，家人却越来越少;更便利了，时间却少了;文凭多了，常识少了;知识多了，正确的判断少了;专家多了，问题更多;药物多了，健康少了。

　　(2).我们无所顾忌，却很少开怀大笑;车开得太快，太容易发怒;睡得太晚，起来还乏;读书太少，开电视太多，很少祷告。

　　(3).我们的财富成倍增长，却不断贬值。说得太多，爱的太少，言不由衷。我们学会谋生，却不懂得生活。我们的寿命增加了，却只是延长了时间。

　　(4).楼越来越高，脾气越来越坏。路越来越宽，视野越来越窄;花的太多，拥有得少，买的越多，喜欢的越少。

　　(5). 我们能够往返于月球，去不能穿过街道去见见新邻居。我们征服了外太空，却无法征服内心;我们分离了原子，却无法消除偏见，写的多，学会的少，计划多，能实现的少。

　　(6).我们学会了冲刺，却不愿等待;收入高了，道德水平却低了;电脑多了，带给我们信息多了，书报多了，交流却少了，拥有的多了，质量却不高。

　　(7).这是一个快餐的时代，消化却慢了;个子高了，个性少了;盈利多了，人际关系疏远了;休闲多了，乐趣少了;食品多了，营养少了;两人都有收入，离婚的却多了;房子越来越漂亮，家庭越来越破碎
