Thats what experts in human interaction are debating after a new Stanford University survey has been published.According to the study, the more time people spend online, the less they can spare for reallife relationships with family and friends. The researchers asked 113 people about the Webs influence on daily activities. 36% of those people are online for more than five hours a week. “As Internet use becomes more widespread, it will have an increasingly isolating (孤立的) effect on society，” says Robert Kraut, one of the researchers.Scholars and Web lovers criticized the study for stretching its data to make the “isolating” point. While 13% of regular Web users admitted the loss of time with loved ones, 60% reported watching less TV.

A 1998 report monitored 73 Pittsburgharea families Net use for a year. “People who used the Internet more talked less to family members and reported being lonelier and more depressed.” says Robert Kraut.“Its true that there have been big declines in social connectedness over the past decades, but those declines began before the Internet was invented，” says Thomas Putnam.As AmitayEtzioni says, the Internet gives us a different kind of social lifenot better or worse than before, but just different.1.

They know that customers who buy the healthy food first will feel happy so that they will buy more junk food(垃圾食品) later in their trip. In department stores, the womens shoe section is generally next to the womens cosmetics(化妆品) section: while the shop assistant is going back to find the right size shoe, bored customers are likely to wander over and find some cosmetics they might want to try later.Besides, businesses seek to appeal to customers senses. Stores notice that the smell of baked goods encourages shopping, so they make their own bread each morning and then fan the bread smell into the store throughout the day. Music sells goods, too. Researchers in Britain found that when French music was played, sales of French wines went up.When it comes to the selling of houses, businesses also use highly rewarding tactics. They find that customers make decisions in the first few seconds upon walking in the door, and turn it into a business opportunity. A California builder designed the structure of its houses smartly. When entering the house, the customer would see the Pacific Ocean through the windows, and then the pool through an open stairway leading to the lower level. The instant view of water on both levels helped sell these $10million houses.5. Why do stores usually display fruits and vegetables in the first section? A. To save customers times.B.
