The two pie charts give information about how much time was spent on activities in an American office over two decades (1980-2000).
It is clear that in 1980, the most popular activities in the office was to phone other people, accounted for around 30%. Followed by using paper document, took up of 20% of the total percentage. Meanwhile, using computer was the lowest, only 2% of workers prefer this method. The ratio of face-to-face communication, meeting and other activities were similar, accounted for 14%, 19% and 15% respectively.
There had been some changes in the ways of working in 2000. One of the major differences was that people started to use email to communicate at work, which made up of 8%. Also, the time spent on computers took up the highest proportion (30%). Meanwhile, holding meetings became the least popular for employees (6%). The rate of paper document decreased by half, while the proportion of other activities and talking stayed constant.
Overall, it can be seen from the chart that instead of the traditional approach such as using paper document or face-to-face meetings, the use of technology had been adopted by many office workers.

As the two species coexisting on this planet, human beings and animals are interdependent parts regardless of the disparity in intelligence and nature. Under this circumstance, while animals keep on feeding each other some humans start to consider animal rights and advocate distributing funds towards its protection. In my view, I cannot agree with this to any extent.
Above all, funding any campaigns of animal protection is by no way the feasible solution to the illegal hunting and improving the harsh situations of wildlife conservation. In this respect, this kind of investment can only protect some specific species drawn people’s attention, such as panda and koala, whereas most other varieties that we lose sight of but serve important roles in balancing the biotas cannot be benefited from this scheme, which is would be a mockery to all the s made by animal activists and environmentalists in a sense. Consequently, rather than pouring large portions of revenue, raising the awareness by publicity and introducing laws may be superiorities in the current days with better and more satisfying outcomes in a long term.
What next should be mentioned is the urgencies plaguing human populations should be given first priority to. From one , despite the advancement in technology and rise in the living standard in metropolitan areas, still many people are stuck in poverty struggling for daily meals and being racked by rather meagre payment. Compared with worrying about extinction of animals, humanitarianism lies in this fact in a more reasonable way, if it should be. In another aspect, this practice also contributes to alleviating poaching as many valuable and endangered animals are killed and sold to make a living and survive by civilians living in the primitive mountains and remote areas where they have no choice.
In conclusion, I firmly believe receipts should be allocated to poverty-relief of people in the underdeveloped nations and regions instead of doing some superficial work in preservation of animals. Without the improvement of cognition and living standard, money would be ly wasted and harmony is always a word between humanity and wildlife.
