The cartoon vividly shows that when two teenagers meet their net friend named "Beauty", to their astonishment, they find an old lady in front of a computer. The purpose of this drawing is to show us that due attention has to be paid to the issue of Internet friendship.
According to the recent survey by the Chinese Academy of Social Science, 80% of people who roam the information Superhighway are there in search of social interaction. As a consequence, the voice speaking through the other side of the line can be used to disguise aspects of a user's personality. And this might bring an unpleasant or even damaging outcome. Numerous examples can be given, but this will suffice. One of my closest friends, Helen, started a net relationship with a man she knew as "Prince Charming". The physical contact, however, reveals that her beloved idol was a husband with wife.
In my view, first and foremost, it is true that people may gain community on the Net, but this exists only in cyberspace. Furthermore, although Internet friendship can give users companionship and even romance, it often ends with failure and even disaster. It is high time that we placed great emphasis on this phenomenon.
這幅漫畫(huà)生動(dòng)顯示了黨兩個(gè)年輕人見(jiàn)到名叫“美女老佛爺”的網(wǎng)友時(shí),他們驚訝地看到一位老奶奶坐在電腦前。這幅圖的目的是告訴我們應(yīng)該充分重視網(wǎng)絡(luò)友誼問(wèn)題。
根據(jù)中國(guó)社科院的最新調(diào)查,80%的人在信息高速公路上瀏覽是在尋找社交。其結(jié)果是,網(wǎng)線另一端發(fā)出的聲音可以用來(lái)掩蓋一名用戶(hù)性格的方方面面。而這可能造成不快甚至破壞性的后果。這樣的例子有很多,但下面這個(gè)就足以說(shuō)明問(wèn)題。我最好的一個(gè)朋友海倫和一個(gè)網(wǎng)名叫“白馬王子”的男子開(kāi)始了一場(chǎng)網(wǎng)戀。而親身接觸證明了她深?lèi)?ài)的偶像是一名有婦之夫。
在我看來(lái),首先人們確實(shí)可以在網(wǎng)上獲得社交,但這只存在于數(shù)字空間中。此外,盡管網(wǎng)絡(luò)友誼可以給用戶(hù)帶來(lái)友情甚至愛(ài)情,但它往往以失敗甚至災(zāi)難告終。我們應(yīng)對(duì)這一現(xiàn)象引起重視。
