A survey found that 60% of UK adults think it is worth paying for a "good newspaper", and most of those said they believed more of what they read in the paid-for newspapers．

Here was something newspapers understood—here was what they could offer: news plus comment and opinion．

And the Internet now offered opportunities．A newspaper was just that: news printed on paper．But the Internet now offered newspapers different places to print, and in different media．

The trend in everyday conversation is to use grandiose(夸大的)words．“Outstanding” is the

new “good,” “amazing” is the new “OK, ” and “huge” is the new “big.”

I was in a restaurant in Washington D．C．last weekend and every question I asked was answered with exaggeration．

Me：How is the salmon?

Sever：Fantastic!

Me：Does it come with rice?

Sever：Absolutely!

Would a “good” and a “yes” have been enough? Of course!

My father is an average-sized man．He hasn’t gained weight or height for the past 30 years. Therefore, his size remains the same．However，in the same amount of time，his T-shirt size has gone from small to medium to large to extra large．

The reason for the exaggerated word is clear：we are bored with our lives. We want the next

—next thing now．Immediately!

And we also want others to think that we still care，that we can still be delighted，that we know that everything is just great．Even when deep inside we know it can’t be．Everything can’t be great．

I’m not a scientist，so many methods of proof leave little to be desired，or a lot to be desired，or an immensity(无限)．

Listen to the voices around you．Listen to your own voices．There is nothing on the radio that is good or bad，weather is either beautiful or horrible．

Listen，the next time when someone asks you something and you agree，because when you

could simply say “yes”, instead you will say “absolutely’’ or “without doubt ” or “Oh，yeah，unquestionably ---- absolutely without doubt."

Have people forgotten what it is like to be OK? Simply OK with what they have and who they are? If everything is outstanding，if everything is the most amazing thing ever，is anything ever amazing at all?
