Significance of Studying Physics

　　 One day, I read some paragraphs from a book. In that book, the author whose profession is physicist stated his opinion about studying physics. In fact, I don't hate studying physics and other subjects, but I can understand the feeling of people who dislike studying physics. Although I've studied it in detail for a few years, I sometimes wonder how the contents the professor taught us today are useful in our lives.

　　 The author also said, "Physics has a somewhat unfair reputation for being hard, impractical, and boring." However, he strongly refuted the opinion "Physics is boring." He was troubled that the practical side of physics is almost always proposed at the expense of the interesting side. We will listen to the lecture on physics more carefully when the lecturer begins with "Physics is necessary and practical in real life!" than begins with "Physics is fun!" If the lecturer started with former words, it will be difficult to tell the delights of it.

　　 

　　 The author then maintained that if you are a university or college student, you don't just have to understand a particular theory, but also understand why the developments of various physical fields such as quantum computing and cosmology are significant, and how they will change technology and our lives. Then, you can better make informed decisions about issues such as global warming.

　　 When I read these paragraphs, I was so impressed because I was about to be overwhelmed by the difficulty with physics I study in university. I'll retry to study various theories and achievements in physics. And I want to recall the fun of studying.

　　 Let's call it a day. Thank you for reading my passage.
