Choose the one that fits best according to the informationgiven in the passage you have just read.AProfessor Barry Wellman of the University of Toronto in Canada has inventeda term to describe the way many North Americans interact these days. The term is “ networked individualism”. This concept is not easy to understand because the words seem to have opposite meanings. How can we be individuals and be networked at the same time. You need other people for networks.HereiswhatProfessorWellmanmeans.BeforetheinventionoftheInternet ande-mail,oursocialnetworksincludedliveinteractionswithrelatives, neighbors, and friends. Some of the interaction was by phone, but it was stillvoice to voice, person to person, in real time.A recent research study by the Pew Internet and American Life Project showedthat for a lot of people, electronic interaction through the computer has replaced this person-to-person interaction. However, a lot of people interviewedfor the Pew study say that s a good thing. Why.In the past, many people were worried that the Internet isolated 孤 立 us and caused us to spend too much time in the imaginary world of the computer. Butthe Pew study discovered that the opposite is true. The Internet connects us with more real people than expected helpful people who can give advice on careers, medical problems, raising children, and choosing a school or college.About 60 million Americans told Pew that the Internet plays an important role in helping them make major life decisions.Thanks to the computer, we are able to be alone and together with other people at the same time.61.
