▶ Your Answer :
There is a
famous Japanese novel about how social networks have changed people's life in a
positive way. The story is about a teenage girl who solves the problem of
bullying through internet. As this story shows, the invention of internet has
positive effects on our civilization.
To start with,
internet Access helps us communicate with people all around the world. To
illustrate, we can write emails to people living on the other side of the world
and people can keep in touch through Facebook. Also people can do cultural
Exchange through penpal. The internet provides us with a lot of opportunities
to learn about the other countries and communicate with various people. To be
specific, the boarders between countries are being vague and people are
starting to admit the difference and have the concept of living together by
learning about other countries through internet. According to Canadian Bureau,
70% of the Canadian people are considering internet as a great way to communicate
with various people. Also 67% of the Canadian students were using internet to
learn about other countries and cultures and these students were open minded
and accepted the difference between people. Therefore, internet provides us
opportunities to communicate with a lot of people.
In
addition to this, internet helps workers live better lives. To be specific,
employees can work at any time at anywhere through internet and get access to
information more easily. Thanks to internet, workers do not have to get up
early to go to the workplace and get ready for work. Say a reporter has to
write an article about education. Traditionally, the reporter has to visit
various education related offices to get information about current education system
and visit schools to see how the education is applied and interview students,
teachers, and government officials in department of education. This would take
the whole day for the reporter to write an article. However nowadays, the
reporter simply has to get into the homepage of the education department to see
the current education system and find flaws and advantages to the system. The
reporter can prepare ahead about the interview questions and can easily
interview the appropriate person. This would reduce the effort into half. The
CEO of Samsung, a Korean electronics company, said on one of his interviews
that letting workers to work with internet increases the company’s production
13%, and workers have high satisfaction with their work. In this aspect,
internet aids workers to live easier lives.
In conclusion, internet has more advantage
than disadvantage for our civilization in that internet boosts communication and helps workers live
better lives.
