Don't understand what this prompt means
Hi, Can you please explain what this prompt means? What are the visual images the question is talking about? Is it just the images on television and computers? If so, I'm confused as to why the visual images have to do with our long-term concentration. It may just sometimes distract us because we are attracted to things that we like that we can't never see in reality. But that's it.
The bombardment of visual images in contemporary society has the effect of making people less able to focus clearly and extensively on a single issue over a long period of time.
Top answer
The "bombardment of visual images" here is not only limited to a few media channels or instruments. It can be blazing signs on the street (if you imagine Time Square of NY or Shinjuku in Tokyo), random but repeated advertisements on subway, newspaper, magazine, and so forth. Recently this visually bombarded environment has been reinforced by our smartphone and tablet PC.

- Basically, when things were a bit more modest and less outstanding, as our parents' generation, they were more easily focussed with better efficiency and length with less distraction from things I've listed above.
- Hope this helps.
