Sample Answer
Indeed, I believe that our innate ability to navigate has significantly diminished due to our increasing dependence on technological advancements. In the past, humans relied on innate skills such as spatial awareness, memory, and the natural cues of the environment, such as the position of the sun or distinctive landmarks, to find their way. Today, however, with the proliferation of GPS systems and navigation apps, many individuals exhibit a marked decline in these traditional skills. This phenomenon raises concerns about our cognitive capabilities; as we outsource more functions to technology, we risk becoming intellectually complacent. Conversely, while navigation technology undeniably offers convenience and precision, it also engenders a certain lethargy in our navigational abilities, potentially leading to difficulties in orienting ourselves when technology fails or is unavailable.
