The Impact of the Internet on Interpersonal Communication

As is described in the picture, a father asks her daughter how her school today goes on. Instead of answering directly, the daughter tells her father to read her blog. It is common that youngsters nowadays incline to communicate with others on internet increasingly, and lack communication with people around them. With the development of Internet, it has influenced our society to a large extent, especially interpersonal communication. 

To begin with, we can communicate with others anytime via internet. Otherwise, we would have to arrange our schedules strictly in advance. Also, interpersonal communication through the internet is not restricted by space. For example, in most multinational corporations, instant messages and video conferences help colleagues solve problems timely and efficiently. Last but not least, the internet can greatly speed up our interpersonal communication. Whereas, there are also disadvantages that the internet brings to us. More and more people complained that they have lost face-to-face communicating skills. As a result, people become more and more indifferent to each other in real life. Some netizens who are immersed in virtual world even have difficulty in making friends in reality.考試用書

【點評】

 這次的六級寫作是請考生談談網絡對人際交流的影響。這個話題本身已是日常生活的熱點，考生并不陌生，有話可說。

文章的展開還是同過去的議論文寫作一致。仍然可以用引入、闡釋有何影響和自己的觀點這樣的三段式進行寫作。在行文時，注意文章的層次和邏輯梳理，在談具體影響時，可適當進行對比論證，論證網絡出現(xiàn)和沒有網絡時，人際交流的差異，也可進行結合自身經歷進行舉例論證。

本篇范文在句式上，長短搭配，形式多變。從句、非謂語動詞等多種表達方式，值得借鑒。同時，用詞同樣注意多樣化，對網絡相關詞匯的多種表達（web, cyber, instant message, video conference等），考生同樣應在平時注意歸類、積累。
