Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a short essay based on the picture below. You should start your essay with a brief account of the impact of the Internet on the way people communicate and then explain whether electronic communication can replace face-to-face contact. You should write at least 120 words but no more than 180 words.

“Dear Andy-How are you? Your mother and I are fine. We both miss you and hope you are doing well. We look forward to seeing you again the next time your computer

crashes and you come down-stairs for something to eat, Love, Mom and Dad.”实：保证沟通信息清晰，完整，避免误解，更加正式

The （more formal） face-to-face contact can ensure/guarantee the message （being delivered）clearer and more intact, thus avoiding misunderstanding （effectively=in such an effective way/ to a great extent. ）

So…that…

The message/information delivered through internet is very likely to be neglected.

It is more likely for us to neglect the message on the internet or dismiss it as rumors.

Electronic Communication Cannot

Replace Face-to-Face Contact

The picture above is a vivid description of a phenomenon that communication between teenagers and their parents is usually through the Internet. Although the Internet has changed the ways of communication, I do not think that electronic communication can replace face-to-face contact.

Firstly, face-to-face contact is much better than electronic communication in terms of enhancing parent-child relationship, for the former can better guarantee honesty of the communication. Secondly, face-to-face contact can make people concentrate on what they are talking about/(attach importance to the message being talked about), so people can think the problems seriously. Last but not least, face-to-face contact can eliminate distrust between parents and children because both sides will not be

suspicious about the other’s intention if they can talk with each other in such a direct way.

To sum up, the Internet has greatly influenced the ways of communication, but it can never replace face-to-face contact.

What a meaningful picture!
