On the Net Friends Come and Go, Talking of...
The young woman was visibly 1 and clearly wanted to get something off her chest.
Whats up? I 2___.
Ive just been defriended, she said.www.zcyy8.com
Now defriended is a word __3 I am not familiar. I have been befriended 4 and befriended- many people since arriving in Beijing. But defriended ?
It turns 5 this is a new word created by the Internet-savvy younger generation
specifically in relation to the worldwide social networking phenomenon, Facebook.
Those who join can invite friends to become members of the site, 6. They can then share photographs, chat, swap messages and observations and perform a host of other mutually accessible applications.
Ive seen some peoples sites __7.__ hundreds of friends, all moments away down a fiber optic Cable, providing they are logged on to their computers or hooked up to a high-spec cell phone.
It creates the possibility of befriending anyone in the world who has online access.Currently, Facebook has 150 million users. That means theres a lot of friends out there.
The 8 is that you can be defriended you can be denied access to the Facebook site someone who had previously invited to be his or her friend. And you can do it without the potential for instant recrimination. Where once, in the school playground, one child might have petulantly shouted 9 another, Im not going to be your friend any more, now the same hurt and loss of face can be performed remotely with the click of a button.
A 10 aspect of defriending is that, unlike with other applications such as the what are you thinking about? posting a digital depository of the often dire, 11 , dull and desperate, no message is sent out alerting you or your contacts about the change in status. You only find out you have 12 when you try to visit a friends site, and you find you can no longer get in. the delay of the discovery is all too often doubly hurtful.
Just as bombs are dispatched impersonally __13 an unseen enemy in modem warfare, 14 relationships are blown out of the window with the same callous disregard, without the risk of any face-to-face comeback. One second you are there, 15 you are deleted.

关于网络交友和分手
这位年轻的女子明显地不安,想要抒发胸中的闷气。
怎么了?我问她。
我刚刚被朋友抛弃了。她说。
如今,对于我来说,被朋友抛弃不是一个熟悉的词,自从我来到北京以后,我已经成为许多人的朋友,也被许多朋友所抛弃。
结果显示,这是一个新词,是由互联网精明的年轻。一代创建的Facebook发明的,它尤其与全球社会网络的现象有关。
那些已经加入成为该网站成员的也可以邀请朋友加入。然后,他们可以共享照片,聊天,交换信息和意见,并执行其他应用程序相互访问的主机。
我见过一些人的网站吹嘘,数百个朋友,假如他们登录到自己的电脑或挂接到一个高规格的手机,就即刻离开了光缆。
它为世界上在线访问的任何人创造了成为朋友的可能性。目前Facebook有150万用户,这意味着有很多朋友产生于这里。
这样做的缺点是,你可能被朋友抛弃。你可能被以前曾邀你成为他或她的朋友的人拒绝访问,你可以这样做而不立即被指责。
也许有一次,在学校操场,一个孩子暴躁地向另一个人喊叫, 我再也不想成为你的朋友贾,现在通过远程控制,点击按钮同样的可以造成伤害,使一张脸消失了。
对于被朋友抛弃一个有争议的的方面是,不像其他的申请,诸如你在想什么呢? 往往可怕,阴郁,沉闷和绝望的数字存储),任何信息都不会被发送来改变你和你的联系人的关系。你只知道当你尝试访问朋友的网站,你会发现你不能再进去了,这一发现的拖延往往是双重伤害。
正如在现代战争中炸弹被无情地发射到一个看不见的敌人,这种关系也被无情地抛出窗外,没有任何面对面卷土重来的危险。只要你在那里一秒钟,你将被删除。
