Since the 1960s, debates have been fueled on the ideal means of communication. Some observers, free lancers and columnists in particular, often emphasize that the more friends one has on line, the fewer one has in his life. However, through decades of practice and observation, it turns out that their statement has many restrictions.
Admittedly, the idea held by those observers does contain an element of truth. For example, along with the computer boom, Internet, the gem of twentieth century scientific technology, is playing an increasingly important role in the means of communication. But these arguers tend to ignore two other essential aspects. First, they fail to take into account the possibility that a variety of technical devices are available. As a result, people can resort to telephones or faxes to maintain a more intimate human relationship. In this sense, the popularity of Internet is not always synonymous to the emotional isolations between people. Second, the arguers’ assertion doesn’t provide sufficient data to narrow down the exact number of computer users who seldom contact their parents or colleagues. Therefore, any further conclusion addressing the problem must be based on thorough investigation. As a matter of fact, dinner parties, celebrating parties as well as other social activities always successfully bring people together. In this respect, the upsurge of electric contact is not the sole hallmark of the decrease of closed n reasons above, the argument above, under a careful examination, turns out to be groundless in its hasty conclusion.
In conclusion, the arguers’ evidence lends little credible support to their claim. To persuade people that the more friends one has on line, the fewer friends one has in his life, the arguers would need to provide clear evidence, sufficient data and thorough cost-benefit analysis of alternatives.(297 words)

It is generally believe that nowadays, Internet is become common stools in people’s lives. First, it give people a way to understand the outside world. But, everything has two sides, computers are sometimes bad. The more frequent we use computers, the less likely we get to know other people. What a terrible scene if we have a computer, but not friends!
Why this happened? At the first place, when we use computers, we read from them, learn from them and print them. Therefore we may think: “ Because computers do us a lot, why bother other people.” Last but not the least, when people play on the internet and talk on the internet, they feel lonely because they have no friends in the real life. In addition, internet delivers mails fastly without any hesitation, so people prefer using then again and again. And they are not willing to visit their friends. What is more, when we use computers for a long time, we are tired and want to go to bed to sleep. I am a hardworking student who is specialized with computer application. Once upon a time, I spend ten hours on computers. As last, I tired, and suddenly I lost my mind and dropped down from downstairs. But for help from my roommates, I would not live in physics and spirit. You see, computers almost kill me. I owe greatly to my friends and wish that I could live as long as them.
What should we do in this situation? We must control computer. For one thing, we must know that it is not good to spend too much time on computers. Of course, most computers do us good, but some others do us harm, such as helping to cheat on line. As we know, we must use computers to serve our needs rather than falling to a slave to them. Only in this way can we have a better life.(317 words)

The issue that the automobile production is a double-edged sword is rather complex, since it involves a conflict between industrial expansion and the strategy of sustainable development. However, the final judgment should depend on a case-by-case analysis of several key factors.
Since the 1960s, the world has witnessed some dramatic changes in the automobile technology. As a result, a growing number of transport vehicles have been manufactured, thus providing citizens with growing convenience and efficiency. Additionally, some economists believe that automobile production contributes to the national economy by paying more tax and providing more job vacancies. For example, In the United States or Japan, automobile industry remains the backbone of their marketing economy, the primary source of national wealth and the major provider of jobs. However, in some other instances, the above-mentioned situation is not always adequate. For instance, suppose a car that is poorly designed and gives off such poisonous gas as monoxide, methane or acetylene. Surely enough, the more cars a company manufactured, the more likely automobile production should be responsible for the environmental degradation of urban regions and the worsening health of the citizens. Another exception to this approach is the case of traffic congestion. Admittedly, when vehicles of various kinds rush to the same avenue, traffic jams invariably occur, which always gives rise to delays or accidents. These are exceptional cases, yet the do exist.
