The Internet
Since its first appearance some decades ago, the Internet has dramatically changed our
lives. Yet, it has also brought a lot of debate about its advantages and disadvantages. Many
arguments have been given to prove that this kind of mass media is the fastest, the cheapest, the
most convenient, in other words, the most effective of all. Few people can doubt the fact.
First of all, for many people the Internet has become a true (and often the only one) way of
communication. In the past, people used to be dependent on conventional mailing system or
telephone that were rather expensive, inconvenient and time-consuming. Nowadays you can get
to any place on any continent and have a talk with a person you need.
Now no one can deny that due to the Internet people in modern society do have an easy
access (доступ) to the latest news, to the information that has been hidden from many of us. The
worlds of trade, economy, as well as the worlds of science, culture, sports and entertainment have
got a channel through which they can share their achievements, discuss their victories and defeats.
The speed of this technology is really incredible. In fact, you can get the necessary data in
practically no time, though there is, certainly, a lot of information in the world that is not open to
the public. Equally important the Internet is in the field of advertising and shopping. Customers
nowadays can easily deliver transactions from home with the help of a computer and make a
payment by using the Internet banking service.
Some people mention possible threats and other disadvantages of the Internet. One of the
serious problems, psychologists speak of, is an individual’s isolation within the society. Doctors
stress the fact that more and more people, especially teens, mix up real life and their online
existence. There are other problems connected with the Internet: children and unsuitable sites,
criminals and the online data that might help them to commit crimes etc. All these facts are true.
However, the 21st century is definitely the epoch of the Internet and our life depends much on it.
