Question

Are We More Connected of More Alone

Are We More Connected of More Alone要求 Directions: Today we are more "connected" than ever before. Our ability to connect with other people online makes us feel like a part of something bigger. Meanwhile, this ability also diminishes how we feel in "real" life. The more we are connected online, the less we seem to be in "real" life. Writer and psychologist Sherry Turkle said, "We are getting used to a new way of being alone together". Do you agree with this? Write an essay（about 200 words) on the above issue. Give reasons and specific evidence to support your point of view.

Answer 1

方向:今天我们比以往任何时候都更加“互联”。我们在网上与他人交流的能力让我们觉得自己是更大的一部分。同时，这种能力也会减少我们在“真实”生活中的感觉。我们在网上联系得越多，我们在“真实”生活中的感觉就越少。作家兼心理学家Sherry Turkle说:“我们正在习惯一种新的独处方式”。你同意这个观点吗?写一篇文章在上述问题上(约200字)。给出理由和具体的证据来支持你的观点。

Answer 2

200字也叫essay？200字都不够写个introduction的，我看人家引入都要100字呢。
Technology provides us with more convience than ever before. We can shop online, talk online, read online, and we can also do things like go on facebook or instagram and 'like' each other, which is something that we cannot do before, but there are negative sides of technology and social medias.
The negative affect of technologies and social medias is that is, like Dr. Turkle said, "We are getting used to a new way of being alone together". Faces are now behind screens, heads are lowered on the street, and people across the dinner table are typing to communicate. There have been reports about car accidents because the person was not paying attention to the traffic light. This is all negative sides of technologies.
Another problem with social medias and the internet is that the user does not know who is behind the other screen. This leads to fraud and tricks, which we can sometimes see on the news about people's bank account lossing money. Sometimes you could think that you are talking to an eight years old girl but actually, it is a fifty years old man that you are talking to, which is not something people want because there are certain information that you can tell a eight years old child but not a fifty years old man.
The third problem with social medias and internet is that looking at the computer screen for too long is not good for people's eye sight. （这里自己找一个关于近年来人们平均视力下降的例子）
Even though the positive side of technologies, internet, and social medias are very clear, the negative sides are also obvious. People who are in the same room are not looking up, people are lossing money from their bank account, which is supposed to be safe, and people's eye sight is getting worst.
