It mainly tells the story of the protagonist "time traveler" riding a self-made "time machine", flying through the time and space tunnel to AD 802701, when the world is rich, human differentiation into two different creatures, one is the fragile and pearly Eloi people, they live leisurely in the luxurious palace on the ground, pamper, eat all day. As a result of not working for a long time, do not think, mental and physical deterioration. The other is the brutish, lemur-like Morlocks, who live in the dark underworld, working all day by rumbling machines to fatten the Eloi for their own food. Then the time traveler flew millions of years into the future, when the world was devastated, people were extinct, and only white butterflies and giant crabs were left. Later, the time traveler made the arduous journey back to his own world. But when he went on his next trip, he never came back.

Watching the relationship between the Eloi and the Morlocks. Think of our lives, compare and you will find that Eloi people are not a kind of people who eat and do nothing? And aren't the Morlocks a hard-working bunch? In other words, the book "The Time Machine" alludes to the social phenomenon in Britain at that time.

This story also tells us from another aspect, if you do not want to be like the Eloi people, you must exercise more, think more, and not let yourself degenerate.

Imagine what would happen if people didn't have the ability to think? Science and technology will not progress, the world will not develop. Just like our primary school students in doing the problem, if every day copy the answer, after a long time, you will not do. This is what happens when you don't think for too long. In today's life, there are a lot of apps that can help us find the answer online, but when we do the problem, we will not or will not. Although these apps are very convenient when copying answers, they also hurt us. Gradually, we will degenerate like the Eloi.
