In fact, more and more people communicate friends through technology, but some elderly people feel uncomfortable with communication online. Thus, we can find some advantages and disadvantages of the new communication technology: the new technology is convenience for our life; and we can make some new friends through internet; however, some people think communication online easy make misunderstanding.
First, the important advantage is the new communication technology make our daily life more easily. We need not spend too much time on face-to-face communication. For example, I’m living in the United States right now, but my family is living in China. However, we can communicate easily because of the computer. Moreover, we can see each other through the webcam. Though my family and I are separated by a long distance, we keep in touch with each other very well. Second, the new communication technology helps us to make some friends. Sometimes, I chat online and make friends whom I never met “in the flesh”. Also, I visit their blog or face book to understand the different cultures and customs. I think it is interesting because I can meet new friends from all of the world.
Although there are a lot of advantages of the new communication technology, some people it brings some disadvantages to our life. It makes a strange relationship between people. For example, a lot of elderly people prefer face-to- face communication to online communication because they don’t think communication online is truthful. If their children always communicate with them online, the elderly will be alone.
