Is It A Good Way To Make Friends Through The Internet?

      As the computer networks around the world get popular, the Internet has become one of the very important media for human beings.  Today, people use the Internet to get updated news, do the shopping, and retrieve information.  According to surveys, chatting and making friends through the Internet is also one of the most popular activities among young people.

      In my opinion, it is indeed a good way to make friends through the Internet if we know how to protect ourselves.  Before the Internet becomes popular, people usually choose friends based on their appearances.  However, the Internet offers us a better chance to know the real personality of a friend because we don’t see each other during the early stage of making friends.  Second, it is easier for us to decide to what extent shall we make friends with others through the Internet.  Now that it is not easy to track people or to be tracked on the Internet.  We are able to decide when to meet our friends or if we want to develop further friendship.

      I firmly believe that real friendship must be built on mutual understanding and trust.  Since modern people don’t have much time to know each other well, the Internet provides us with a good way to make friends with people all over the world by means of instant and effective communication.

Are You For or Against Idol Adoring?

      Nowadays, mass communication is so popular that many idols are created by different marketing media to attract people.  Therefore, we can find many superstars in different fields such as movie stars, singers, sports players and even politicians.  Almost all of the superstars have one thing in common.  They are perfect in every aspect according to the media.

      In my opinion, I am against idol adoring because we shall not adore or respect someone by emotions.  An idol tends to attract people by one of his/her major talents, but people may easily neglect the other aspects of his/her personality.  So I don’t think it is wise to adore an idol without knowing him or her as a whole.  Moreover, people intend to create fashion by creating idols.  However, following a fashion without rational judgment is dangerous as well.  On the one hand, we need to judge if the fashion really fits us; on the other hand, we should check if the fashion does improve our lifestyle.

      In conclusion, I am against idol adoring in our society.  Besides, I do not agree that we shall easily adore an idol just because he or she is an idol.  We need to know both the good side and the bad side of an idol and we need to judge the fashion behind the idol.  After all, we should learn to be ourselves instead of being someone else.
