These days, it has become an increasingly hot topic whether the Internet can take the place of paper media. Whenever it comes to this issue, there will spring up opposite voices. Some tend to view the Internet as a blessing and argue that sooner a later it will replace paper media, while the others consider the opposite. So far as I am concerned, I am inclined to support the latter view.
It is of no difficulty for me to come up with some arguments to illustrate my standpoint. At the top of the list, it must be pointed out that reading too long on the Internet will do great harm to our eyes. According to an official report, approximately 54% of the kids wearing glasses have the habit of surfing in cyberspace. To put it in another way, it is the habit of surfing on the Internet that impairs the children’s eyesight. What’s more, we must admit that the information and material on the Internet are less trustworthy than paper media because they are generally provided anonymously. Finally, the fact cannot be ignored that paper media have their own advantages and strengths and thus their faithful readers will stick to them.
There is no denying the fact that people may have diverse opinions on the same issue, but my view is clear and well founded in the foregoing discussions. Therefore, I believe, the traditional media will surely continue to exist in the future. 作者: q3030 时间: 2011-12-24 08:36
