The Impact of the Internet on the Way People Communicate

　　Due to the wide use of puters and the development of Internet, more and more people like to chat on the Internet. We tend to pay more attention to electronic munication than to face-to-face contact.

　　As electronic munication is not limited by space, we can chat with others where there is Internet with our tools such as puters, mobile phones and pads. However, when we chat with others online, we cannot express our feelings fully. Just as the picture shows, the parents cannot touch or hug their child. We know that body language plays an important role in our munication, but the electronic munication cannot do this. For example, when we are sad, we need more love and warmth, a real hug from our parents or friends can mean much more to us than just words through electronic munication.

　　Therefore, though electronic munication brings convenience to our life, I still don?t think the electronic munication can replace face-to-face contact.

　　互聯(lián)網(wǎng)對人際交流方式的影響

　　由于計算機和互聯(lián)網(wǎng)的廣泛使用,越來越多的人喜歡在網(wǎng)上聊天。我們傾向于更注重電子交流而不是面對面接觸。

　　由于電子交流不受空間限制,我們可以在任何有互聯(lián)網(wǎng)的地方用計算機、手機和平板電腦與他人聊天。然而,當(dāng)我們在線上與他人聊天時,我們無法充分表達自己的感受。就像圖片所顯示的,父母無法觸摸或擁抱孩子。我們知道肢體語言在我們的交流中發(fā)揮著重要作用,但電子交流做不到這一點。例如,當(dāng)我們難過時,我們需要更多的愛和溫暖,來自父母或朋友的真正擁抱對我們來說可能比電子交流中的文字意味著更多。

　　因此,雖然電子交流為我們的生活帶來了便利,但我仍然不認為電子交流可以取代面對面的接觸。
