Does the Internet bring people closer? Why or Why not?
In my opinion, on the one hand the internet bring people closer and on the other hand, it can make us become estranged. Because of the internet, the world become the global village. We can get many things done via the internet.
Firstly, we can make friends with people from all over the world. And when I am studying in wuhan, I can make contact with my parents and my friends through qq or renren even through video chat when I miss them .In this way ,the internet bring us closer. Further more another way of how the internet brings us closer is shopping online, such as taobao, jingdong,dangdang .Several years ago I need to do some shopping in the market and face-to-face talked with the sellers. While now I can buy my clothes or books just in my dorm and talk with the sellers through ailiwangwang or qq. In this way, the internet brings us closer.
However, the internet brings us further on the other hand. Some people are addicted to the internet. They can skip the meal for days just to play games. And they don’t want to go out to make friends just through qq. After a long term they will become the person who don’t like chatting with parents and don’t want to make friends in the real world, finally their characters change and they become indifferent. In this way the internet brings us further.
All in all, the internet is a rapier. If you use it properly .it will brings us closer and much convenience .Or it makes us become indifferent and brings us further.
So please use it properly .Let the internet becomes our right hand and serves to our life.
