　　52.范文

　　In the picture, a boy is absorbed in chatting on line. When his aged mother asks him to have a chat, the boy responds impatiently: “Don’t you see I am busy now?” Puzzled and disappointed, the mother cannot understand why her son is talking to a computer.

　　The simple dialogue between the son and his mother reveals the fact that youngsters nowadays prefer to talk to the anonymous over the internet rather than people around them. Interpersonal communication seems to be out of favor with the young generation in the internet age. Two reasons can be concluded about the phenomenon. Firstly, the privilege of anonymity allows the young to say whatever is innermost, while the face-to-face contact is superfluous to a certain extend. Secondly, because of the age gap, parents are less likely to know what their children are thinking and feeling, which makes the rare conversations boring.

　　However, on the one hand, chatting on the internet has many hidden dangers. You cannot really know a person well only by reading the words he types, because he is probably showing what he wants to be rather than what he really is. On the other hand, for lack of real life communication with elders, peers and youngers, young people may lose the opportunities to learn to be courteous, cooperative and friendly. Therefore, I wish interpersonal relationship would be strong enough to defend itself against the temptation of the Internet.
