答案 Has the Internet Done More Good than Harm? The Internet has been one of the greatest inventions so far. For one thing, it is basically a globally accessible repository of knowledge, and anyone can get the latest news with a click of the mouse. For another, as a major means of communication, the Internet dissolves traditional barriers to communication, overcoming the limitations of time and space. It brings people together by creating a climate of openness and sharing. Last, it also contributes to learning. There are many educational apps and websites which enable people to learn in a much more effective way. However, other people insist that the Internet has done more harm than good. To begin with, the online information may not be accurate and reliable. Thus there is a risk for people to be misguided. Furthermore, people’ personal information online may be used without their consent, which will lead them into trouble. Finally, some people spend too much time surfing the Internet, which not only causes health problems but also affects people’s social interactions. Despite the above facts, the Internet is a major source of information, and we should use it wisely and discreetly. Personally, I think the benefits of the Internet outweigh its disadvantages, and the Internet will bring dramatic changes to our daily life.
