If we continue using advance technology to create dangerous things and we use the technology in a bad or not so intelligent way, later on they are going to be consequences. Technology is good but if you use it in the correct way, in this story we can see that humans are not so important, that sometimes we are unessesary, because technology can do everything for us. Technology is an important element in sci-fi, for example when they said. "In the kitchen the breakfast store gave a hissing sigh and ejected from its warm interior Eight pieces of perfectly browned toast". This example is revel any because anyone is in the house and either in the town, so how is going to be the breakfast making itself. The house never stop working it work and do things as if someone was living their, and why their was nobody in the house? Because we create a bomb that later on kill everyone in the town. Another element of sci-fi that is important in this short story is the future, an example is " today is August 4 2026 said a second voice from the kitchen ceiling" this is revelant and important because we don't use technology correctly and we didn't think of the consequence that later on like in this case the furture can be. Like the bomb that was the cause of everyone in the town only because people don't use technology in a correct way.
There will come soft rain have two narrative techniques that are the most important. One is pacing, we can see passing when the alar clock sound, " seven -nine breakfast time, seven-nine" the writer uses hours and time for everything is going to happen in the house. And the other one is description. It said the hour and describe what will happens at that time for example " tick tock seven o clock time to get up"it is telling like what each person need to do at that time But anyone was their.
In conclusion I can said that sometimes people don't think before making decisions or things. Like the bomb, the person that create the bomb didn't think that it was dangerous and that can kill someone. People thing that technology is the best thing, sometimes is good to use technology but only if you know how to use it and do it with intelligence and in the correct way. Reading this short story I have notice that humans are not so important, that with the advance technology the world can continue working perfectly without us. Remember always take good and intelligent decisions in life. modificar.
