The Impact of the Internet on the Way People Communicate

　　网络对人们沟通产生的影响

　　Internet does exert such a profound effect on our life that it revolutionizes the way of people’s living and thinking. As is subtly revealed in the portrayal，there are two parents sitting in the front of computer，who are chatting with their child on the internet. What a meaningful picture!

　　互联网也产生了深刻影响我们的生活，它变革了人们的生活方式和思维方式。正如在描绘中所揭示的那样，在电脑前有2个父母坐在电脑前，他们在网上和孩子聊天。一幅有意义的画！

　　From my perspective, the electronic contact cannot replace face to face communication owing to the following factors. To begin with, over-reliance on electronic contact will damage the interpersonal relationship, for the cold machine never replaces a warm-hearted greeting face to face. For example, the aged parents would like their only son who works far away home to come back home more often rather than to talk with him on the internet occasionally. What’s more, face to face communication is preferable because it is beneficial to build a harmonious society, for it attaches more importance on human affection and feelings instead of convenience and speed.

　　从我的角度看，由于以下因素的影响，电子接触不能代替面对面的交流。首先，过度依赖于电子接触会损害人际关系，对于冷机器永远不会取代一个热情的问候面对面。例如，年迈的父母会喜欢他们的独生子离家出走，而不是经常在网上和他聊天。更重要的是，面对面交流是有好处的，因为它有利于构建和谐社会，因为它更注重人的感情和感情，而不是方便和速度。

　　Hence, it is necessary for us to use Internet in a reasonable way. After all, Internet is invented to connect you and me, and to bring conveniences to our life rather than set a barrier to keep people beyond reach. If we want to keep our interpersonal relationship more effectively, we should spend more time with them face to face in real life. Only in this way can we not only make full use of the communication tool on the net but also make our relationship tighter.

　　因此，我们有必要以合理的方式使用互联网。毕竟，互联网是发明来连接你和我，并为我们的生活带来方便，而不是设置一个障碍，让人们无法到达。如果我们想让我们的人际关系更有效，我们就应该在现实生活中花更多的时间去面对现实生活中的人际关系。只有这样，我们才能充分利用网络上的交流工具，使我们的关系更加紧密。
