There are two main points which must be in

2、cluded when we 2 the Internet. The first is its value for people who are looking for information. The second is our ability to relate to others through the Internet.When people need 3 , from the news and weather forecasts, to travel packages and academic research, the Internet is now the first place

3、 that they turn to. With the touch of a button or the click of a mouse, a student will find 4 information from the largest libraries and museums in the world at his or her command. Internet users can communicate with experts on all sorts of topics, and read articles written by people who are leaders

4、 of their fields.Yet, some people are 5 . They claim that the Internet is useless and a waste of time. They make the assumption that children spend too much time chatting and playing games instead of focusing on their school work. However, a recent survey 6 in the USA showed that 80 per cent of Inte

5、rnet users employ it mostly to search for answers to questions. The second most common use of the Internet, for 79 per cent of Internet users, is to find out information about hobbies. These statistics prove that gathering information is the 7 use for the Internet.Another truly wonderful 8 of the In

6、ternet is the way people use it to build social bonds. One of the greatest benefits of Internet friendships is that they are based on common interests, rather than appearance or age. Young people from 9 backgrounds and different countries can form friendships that will last their entire lives. What

7、is more, people who are disabled and must stay in their homes can correspond with others around the globe who have similar interests. Without the Internet, these people would have fewer 10 for meeting people.For these reasons, I believe the Internet remains a positive tool that helps make our lives

8、better.The Internet has negative effects on our livesMy name is Lin Lei and I will be speaking against the Internet. In my opinion, the Internet has negative effects on our lives. The main 1 of the Internet I will address today are that it has too much information that has not been evaluated for acc

9、uracy, and that it is transforming the way people spend their time.Of course, 2 to up-to-date, accurate information is an important thing for anyone who is doing research. One great strength of the Internet is that it provides information. One great weakness of the Internet, though, is that it is di

10、fficult to know whether the information is true and 3 . The amount of false information on the Internet becomes more of a problem every day. This is very 4 because we cannot always tell if the information is true or not. In 2003, eBay, the famous website where people buy and sell things, said that 7

11、0 per cent of their problems were with people who sold things that did not exist, or who lied about the products they were selling. Educators around the world 5 that students are handing in papers using false information they found on the Internet. These kinds of errors do not occur as often when pe

12、ople use traditional reference materials, such as books, newspapers and magazines.Another disadvantage of the Internet is the way that it is affecting peoples 6 lives. Now, instead of spending time together in the evenings, some families spend their time apart because one or more members are using t

13、he computer, or are in a booth at an Internet cafe. In fact, some young people spend so much time playing computer games and using the Internet that they have become 7 to computer games. To help solve this problem, a clinic was opened in Beijing in 2005.One unfortunate 8 of Internet use is that it d

14、amages peoples ability to live normal lives. One university did a study about the students who had 9 out, and found that 43 per cent of them were heavy computer users. This study shows that people who spend all their time on the Internet tend to withdraw from the people and the world round them.These are all negative effects the Internet has on our lives. I feel it remains important for us either to limit our use of the Internet, or to learn how to 10 the problems it has caused.
