There is no denying in saying that the internet has become an indispensable part of our daily life. Admittedly, this great invention, as a major means of entertainment that relieves one’s pressure, boredom, stress and burden, adds some flavor of fun and high-tech into our seemingly tedious, routine and monotonous life.
Nevertheless, the staggering advancement of technology is attended by grave consequences. It is universally acknowledged that people, especially the youngsters, are spending more and more time in the virtual world, such as chatting with the strangers, being addicted to the computer games and so on, instead of interacting in the real world. By doing so, the young waste their hours, lavish theirdays, even squander their years while living in the virtual world.
It is high time we paid due attention to this adverse trend brought by the unprecedented new technology. We must ensure that technological innovations will not render us slaves to high technology. Only in a sensible, healthy atmosphere can we hope to witness the ideal scene in which we, human beings, can utilize the internet to its uttermost.
