The impact of the Internet on us is overwhelming. I’ll discuss this topic from three aspects, life, study and work, and personal relationship.

The impact of Internet on our life is evident. First, it changes the traditional way of shopping. If you want to buy something, just click the mouse without going out. Second, we can have all kind of entertainment on line. We can listen to music, see films, play poker games and PC games on line. Third, we communicate and contact more efficiently with the help of the Internet. Emails replace our traditional letters and they save our time and money.

There is a great impact on our work and study. For example, merchants can do business on line more efficiently than before. Today more and more people and writers write all kinds of works with computers and publish them on net. On-line teaching enables many people have the opportunity to receive education at low cost. Internet is also full of vast variety of information and reference.

At last, I will talk about the impact on our personal relationship. The impact is radical. Since OICQ came into being, it brought fundamental changes to the inter-personal relationship. People chat on line casually and freely. Some people fall in love; some become good friends; unavoidably some get lost and hurt.
