With the increase in security awareness, security monitors are popping up in some places. Some are very useful, like the monitor eyeing the supermarket and the monitor checking traffic flows on roundabouts. But are monitors in the residential areas really necessary?
随着人们对安全的重视,一些地方开始安装监视器。一些监视器非常有用,比如安装在超市里的监视器以及在十字路口监控交通的监视器,但是在居民区安装监视器有必要吗?
Recently, more and more residential districts have been installed with monitor cameras. It' s said that the installation can vastly enhance the security of the residents. But some people are against it. The discussion as to whether the surveillance system is a blessing or a curse arouses most people' s interests. In my opinion, I support that the monitor camera should be mounted in the residential areas.
Installing monitor cameras is good for residents and the neighborhood. First of all, as what the advocates claim,it is an effective approach to improve the security situation. Consequently the guards can easily know what is going on in the districts from the screens of the monitor cameras, and they will be able to offer a helping hand to residents if it is necessary.
Furthermore, the monitor cameras can be used to keep watch on the specified areas all day, so if something unusual happens, for example, a thief goes into a house and steals some valuable things, the police can review the records to find out some clues. It provides some valuable clues for the police to investigate and solve the case.
Finally, if the monitor cameras have been installed in the residential districts, the people living there don' t need to install the expensive security devices that they used to install. So the people living there can be spared lots of money on individual household safety devices.
In conclusion, although installing monitor cameras has its negative effects, it can to a great extent make people feel more secure. That is a very important thing for people nowadays. Therefore I support installing the monitor cameras in the residential districts. The installation will undoubtedly play an increasingly significant role in modern life.
