The article "Why people think they are living in a reality show" by Colin Lecher stated that people are being watched by each other every single day.So,It is like we are in the TV show like the film " Trueman show". The author Andrew morantz gave an example that the government had the right to spy on it's citizens and we could assume that we were being watched. what the author said is right because it is possible that someone is watching us from somewhere at anytime.
First , We can imagine, we are being watched by someone like we are in the TV show. Nowaday, every supermarket has recording TV camera and when we go for shopping , we all are recorded in the camera.If there is someone suspicious in the store, someone who works there can watch that person from the camera.Next, some small stores have a TV camera installed next to the front counters and everyone can see all sections of the store from the camera. For instance, when i go shopping with my friends to those kinds of store, we have different things to buy.she go get what she needs and i go get what i want. Sometimes, if i don't see my friend after i finished checking out, i watched the TV camera and i can see where my friend is in the store.So,It is like we are in the reality show because i can find my friend in the store by watching the camera and workers in the store can watch what customers are doing.
Another thing is that In every day life, people are also watching each other's life from web. For example, facebook is also like a reality show. Everyday, people like to check other's people facebook profile because they are interested in knowing someone's else life. By checking facebook, people can know what their friends are doing.What's more ,there might be friends who you haven't seen them for a long time in person but if your friends use facebook ,you can watch your friends from the facebook what your friend are doing right now, where they live and also who is their lovers and their marriage since a lot of people update about themselves by uploading photos and posting comments.That's why, we can imagine that we are in the TV show in someway without a doubt.
Today, All business places installed tv cameras for their store safety,we will be in the camera where ever we go. Also, as a lot of people use facebook and post their photo and what they are doing, they will be on the screen like in the tv show when their friend check their facebook's profile. So, i could say that everyday,we are in the tv show.

The article "Individuals in Groups" by Carol Tavris from Los Angeles Times ,1991 stated that people are different when they are alone than in a group.According to two experiments, Individual people didn't hesitate to act when there was an emergency and help people who are in need of help.In addition, the author said that people in a group became lazier by thinking that another person would take care of it.I agree with what the author said because people in a group are just lazier than by themselves.
From my personal experience, when people are in a group, they have less responsibilities, less concentrations and become lazier. For example,When I was in ESL 099 class, We were given homework to read a story for the next day's discussion. In the next day,we were separated in groups and we had to discuss the story by groups.In our groups, one of the students didn't read the story .However, the discussion was done well by other people from the group.Working in a group make people calculate and think that the job can be done by other people even though they don't give much effort.
Next, when we had to write a summary by groups, every body has different views and idea. However, we had to make an agreement what to write in our group's summary. When i had different idea with other people from the group, it really made me upset because we couldn't waste time by arguing. At that time, I just gave up my idea and let other people finish the job because whatever the result we got, it came out under the group's name. Working in a group really make me lazy and less energetic.
In conclusion, Working in a group really make people lazy and have less responsibilities and concentration because even though you work hard more than other people, the result come out under the group's name. That's why, In my point of view, working in the group make people lazy than working on their own.On the other hand, working individuals make people really work hard because they have full responsibilities and make people more intelligent.

The article "I know the Truth, So Don't Bother Me with Facts"by Jeffrey Kluger from In Time, October 29,2010 stated that Humans believe lies and rumors easily. Recently, A new survey found out that it was very easy to double people's beliefs.In addition, Most people persisted with their beliefs even when it was proven that their beliefs were wrong.
I agree with what the article stated. Most people accept and believe rumors. They don't try to know the truth because they are more interested in what people just say instead of what the truth is.Unfortunately, people don't care how much the rumor effect a person's life. Last year, I almost broke up with my boyfriend because of the rumor. One day, My boyfriend went back his hometown for a month. At that time, one of my old friends moved to New York. I helped him as much as i can because he was new in New York.I met him in a cafe shop for several times and talk about our old time.We had known each other since we were kids. Unfortunately, A rumor came out that i was having a new boyfriend. Fortunately, whenever i talked to my boyfriend on the phone, i told him about my friend too.
When my boyfriend came back, we had quarrels because of the rumor.He almost believed the rumor even though he knew that i was just helping my friend.He tried to find out the truth because he knows exactly who i am like.Later, He realized the truth and whenever someone talked my rumor, he talked from my side. Nevertheless, Other people believed the rumors even though they don't exactly know the truth.
In conclusion, Rumors are very dangerous and very easy to spread out. Many people don't care how much rumors effect a person's life.So,My advice is not to accept and spread out the rumor without knowing the truth because rumors can ruin a person's life terribly.

For example, when i watch movies from the TV channel, i always have to go through a lot of advertisements during the movie.Advertisements show up very often during the movie is on.I have to watch all commercials to continue the movie.Another thing is when i go out ,I like to listen to the radio in my car because i can hear daily news,weather and important breaking news.However, there are also radio commercials. There is nowhere to run. We will encounter with advertisements wherever we go.
In conclusion, The increase in advertisements is the increase in toxic of mental pollutants. Whether you are home or outside, you will be attracted by advertisements.No one will be escaped. Everybody will be influenced by commercials wherever they are.
