According to Alvin Toffler, author of the best seller Future Shock, America has become a throwaway society. Cardboard milk containers and rockets are only two examples. Such products are created for short - term or one - time use. They are becoming more numerous and more important to modem living. Toffler thinks that man's relationships with things will grow increasingly temporary.
As proof of this trend (趋势), Toffler gives examples of such products as disposable diapers (一次性尿布), kleenes (面巾纸), and non - returnable bottles. Vegetables are encased in plastic sacks. They can be dropped into a pan of boiling water and thrown away after the meal. TV dinners are cooked in throwaway trays. They are even served in them.
All these things are quickly used up. Then they are ruthlessly eliminated (永远消除). In Toffler's view, the American home has become little more than a large processing (加工) plant. Toffler further believes that his countrymen are developing throwaway values to go with their throwaway products. He says that easy disposability leads to shorter man - thing relationships. People were once linked with a few objects for a long time. Now they are linked with a series of objects for brief period.
