Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? The invention of the Internet has had negative effects on your civilization. Use specific reasons and examples to support your opinion.
Nowadays, we could not imagine our life without Internet, could we? From my point of view, the invention of THE Internet has a good influence on our community as a whole. The basis of my opinion will be discussed as follow.
There is no doubt that the Internet brings us together. In my opinion, this is the best effect of the Internet. Although, it serves a spectacular amount of possibilities. However, usually I use my computer as a communication tool. In fact, via "Skype" and "Yahoo" I CAN be in touch with my family. For example: When I am a bit lonely, easily I could EASILY turn my computer on It isn't "a". Afterwards I could communicate with someone of my fellows, siblings, or parents. Anyway, the Internet makes my life easier and better.
On the other hand, the Internet is a tremendous source of information, as a whole. We could get a huge amount of advantages by this option of the Internet. To exemplify my idea, I will give you a good example from my personal experience. Two days ago, I had a homework(.) It was something about the Second World War. I just typed these words into Google, AND as a result I found a lot of information, and it was quite helpful for me to fulfil this task. Anyway, also the Internet is a good source of other kinds of information, such as weather estimations, news, interviews, and everything else.
Interestingly, many people believe that THE Internet could harm friendships among families and friends, but I do not think so. From my point of view, this statement is quite frivolous. I think that it depends on the individual.
Last but not least, the Internet has many different options. As an example, we could buy different things through the Internet . Moreover, if we are able to use this significant invention, we could pay our household bills, we could purchase food, and so on and so forth. Simply put, the options which the Internet OFFER are endless.
To sum up briefly, from my point of view the positive effects of the Interenet OUTWEIGH the negative effects. Because, in my opinion this device could be quite beneficial for us, and for our society as a whole. We just have to try it. :::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: Good morning Mlad. Please note. Internet, Google, Yahoo, Skype ... are all Proper Nouns, and as such, merit being started with a capital letter ... ALWAYS.
It isn't "an" Internet. It is "the" Internet. It isn't "a" homework. It is simply, homework.

Internet like all other inventions contributes to the progress of human civilizations. If in the past humans used stones, or other prehistoric habitat to survive now we have a lot of things thanks to innovation. Internet is has a totally positive impact to human civilization. It saves a lot of time and money. It helps to find the information faster, to make less commute to institutions, to video talk with other people, and more.
More and more people and institutions are using internet to look for information. People are taking courses online, make projects using internet, even for domestic leaving like cooking recipes. Internet is used by all ranks of ages. People are start accommodated with internet. If several years ago internet was used by young people and middle age, now a lot of seniors are using internet for personal and professional reasons. Grandma looking for a new recipes, grandfather looking to buy a new fish stick internet contribute into all people life.
Internet helps with banks transactions, claims, filings information for which we do not have to go in personal to solve them, saving a lot of time and money and diminish the stress which we can have it staying in lines. Also, institutions can have more customers for less employees and more profit. If in the past a bank served hundred people, now there are millions or maybe more customers to that bank, imagine how big the profit for those institution thanks to internet is. Or, there are virtual institutions which they make money just because someone is making a click on a link. Using internet it is very dangerous too, need to be very careful otherwise you can loose a lot of money.
Internet it is the most useful into relationships. Through internet people are meeting and keep a relation. People living far away from each other, relatives, parents and children, husband and wife are using internet to keep close from the one who they love.
For me, I am using internet every day, I communicate with my parents from the other side of the world, I study, I make homework, pay my bills, and a lot of other things. Internet it helps me to survive better in civilization. |
