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
在信息时代,我们难以避免会不停地抱怨信息爆炸带来的纷扰。如同一个谚语说到的:"信息越多,分心越多"。
没有人能否认信息时代带给我们的便利,通过搜索引擎和专业网站我们能够快速准确地获取相关的信息。尽管如此,面对不可思议的庞大的信息来源,我们困惑了、愤怒了、心烦意乱了。我们会发现在网上搜索信息是如此耗时、如此令人心烦。例如,当我们在网上要获取某个信息时,会搜索出一些无用的、不健康的信息甚至是广告。面对纷繁复杂的不相干的信息,我们常常会迷失自己,忘了当初要找什么而感到很崩溃。
如何避免不相干的信息带来的烦恼?也许以下几个有用的方法我们可以试试:第一,搜索前列一个清单,这样有助于帮助我们拒绝一些不相干的信息;第二,找出一些可靠、专业的网站,去收藏和分类。这样,我们会很容易删减一些无用的信息和避免一些商业广告的出现。
