Topic: do you agree or disagree with the following


statement:
“the internet has destroyed communication among families
and friends”
Essay:
The internet is one of the great inventions of people in the
twentieth century. The internet brings us a lot of
advantages to all the fields of society such as
communication or sharing knowledge among people in the
world. There are some people argue that the internet has
destroyed the traditional communication among friends
and families. In contrast, I strongly support the opinion that
the internet does not destroy the communication among
family and friends, and it also provides more ways to help
people connect to other people.

First of all, the internet helps people can contact to others


despite of distance, in other words, through the internet
and some software programs such as skype or yahoo, we
can talk to many friends in any time and any where if we
want. For example, I have a younger brother, he is
studying in US. Although the US is very far from Viet Nam,
but my family can use the internet in order to talk and see
him quite often.

Secondly, communication by using the internet are very


quickly and economical, as a result, we can save our time
and money to do other works more effectively. Before the
appearance of internet, letter and telephone are two main
ways help people to contact with others. Nevertheless,
using letter will consume a lot of time for waiting, whereas
people can send and receive the email after only one click.
Similarly, to make a phone call, especially a phone call to
another country, will be more expensive than using the
internet to do it. Because the price we have to pay for
public internet service are very cheap.

Finally, through using the internet, people can meet a lot of


people; thus, they can expand their relationship. Along
with the development of the internet, there are a lot of
social networks that appeared such as facebook or yahoo
blog. In these pages, each members can easy make friend
with others from any where in the world; so, they can easy
talking and sharing their ideas of all the fields that they
want. In this way, people have the new ways to expand
their relationship to all people in the world.

In brief, for all of the reasons that I mention above, I


believe that the internet not only helps people contact
easily, but it also brings the new ways to communicate with
others. Consequently, the internet has helped people in
the world to be more closer.

The Internet is one of the great inventions of people in the


twentieth century. The Internet brings us many benefits to
all areas of society, such as communication or knowledge
sharing between people around the world. There are some
people who claim that the Internet has destroyed
traditional communication between friends and families. In
contrast, I argue that the Internet has not destroyed
communication between family and friends, and it also
provides more opportunities to help people connect with
other people.

First of all, the Internet helps people to get in touch with


others despite the distance, in other words, through the
Internet and some software programs like Skype or Yahoo,
we can talk to many friends anytime and anywhere if we
want. For example, I have a younger brother who is
studying in the US. The US is very far from Vietnam, but
my family can use the Internet to talk to him and see him
often.

Second, communication via the Internet is very fast and


cheap, so we can save our time and money to do other
work more effectively. Before the Internet existed, letter
and telephone were the two main ways to contact others.
However, a letter takes a lot of time, while an email can be
sent and received with just one click. A phone call,
especially to another country, is also more expensive than
using the Internet. This is because the price we have to
pay for public Internet services is very low.

Finally, by using the Internet, people can meet many


people and thus expand their relationships. With the
development of the Internet, many social networks such as
Facebook or Yahoo Blog have also come into being. In
these sites, any member can easily make friends with
others from all over the world; thus, they can easily talk
and share their ideas from any fields they want. In this
way, people have the new opportunities to expand their
relationships with everyone in the world.

In short, for all the above reasons, I believe that the


Internet not only helps people to get in touch easily, but
also provides new ways to communicate with others.
Consequently, the Internet has helped people in the world
to become closer to each other.
