The impact of the internet on interpersonal communication 范文:
It can’t be denied that the internet is an epoch-making invention. As we entered into the age of information, it has had a great impact upon every aspects of our life, in particular, the interpersonal communication in our social life.
On one hand, the internet can remarkably enhance the interpersonal communication among us. Firstly, it saves time and money. Without considering the transportation and the money for reception, we can realize person-to-person communication at any time we want merely by typing the message or click the \instant chatting tools. Secondly, interpersonal communication through the internet is not limited by space. As a platform for making friends, the internet provides more ways of knowing people from other parts of the world.
On the other hand, the internet might be a burden for interpersonal communication if inappropriately used. If people obsessively rely on internet to maintain their
friendship instead of meeting each other face to face, they may suffer mental problem.
After all, compared with communication through the internet, it is friendly
handshaking, eye contact, and smile exchanges in face-to-face encounters that means a lot to humans.
In conclusion, we should properly use the internet in our interpersonal communication. Only by that, can we benefit from the Internet in our social life. 阅读理解 快速阅读

Passage 3
Bernard Jackson is a free man today, but he has many bitter memories. Jackson spent five years in prison after a jury wrongly convicted him of raping two women. At Jackson's trial, although two witnesses testified that Jackson was with them in another location at the times of the crimes, he was convicted anyway. Why? The jury believed the testimony of the two victims, who positively identified Jackson as the man who has attacked them. The court eventually freed Jackson after the police found the man who had really committed the crimes. Jackson was similar in appearance to the guilty man. The two women has made a mistake in identity. As a result, Jackson has lost five years of his life.
The two women in this case were eyewitnesses. They clearly saw the man who attacked them, yet they mistakenly identified an innocent person. Similar incidents have occurred before. Eyewitnesses to other crimes have identified the wrong person in a police lineup or in photographs.
Many factors influence the accuracy of eyewitness testimony. For instance, witnesses sometimes see photographs of several suspects before they try to identify the person they saw in a lineup of people. They can become confused by seeing many photographs or similar faces. The number of people in the lineup, and whether it is a live lineup or a photograph, may also affect a witness's decision. People sometimes have difficulty identifying people of other races. The questions the police ask witnesses also have an effect on them.
Question 33: What do we learn about Bernard Jackson? Question 34: What led directly to Jackson’s sentence? Question 35: What lesson do we learn from Jackson’s case?
