The youth of today are often addicted (沉迷于) to technological advancement whether through cell phones, gaming systems, or MP3 players. But are these technological advancements a good thing? Technology has a negative influence on us because it separates (把隔开) individuals from reality. The iPod is one example. “For some people, the main attraction of the iPod is that it catches you so that you do not have to deal with the uncontrollable factors of everyday life，” writes Krystle Song on her website, a student from the University of California. The ability for people to surround themselves with the familiar by using their iPod is attractive because it rarely provides the listener with something unexpected or unknown. However, it can be argued that this is a bad thing. If we do not have to face reality by experiencing new things, making personal relationships, and solving problems, we will never be able to function as adults. Some argue that the Internet has a positive effect on social communication because it allows us to develop friendships online. However, the ability to meet people through chat rooms and other services is actually negative. There are dangerous people on the Internet who are a threat to young people. While some people think that the Internet can build openness, selfconfidence, and a great sense of comfort, it can also provide opportunities for those who are too depressed to lead a social life in the real world. It is extremely unhealthy to make and keep all of your social communication online. We wont be positively influenced by communicating through a computer screen if we already do not have the selfconfidence to socially communicate in reality. I believe the advancement of technology has negatively affected our social communication because it separates us from what is happening around us, prevents communication, and spreads the concept of immediate satisfaction. Society must be able to use technology while not allowing it to prevent social communication, particularly for those who are easily influenced during teenage years.【文章大意】科技在给我们带来便利的同时，也阻碍了人与人之间最基本的交流。对于正在成长中的青少年来说，这一点负面影响尤为严重。5What does the underlined word “advancement” in Paragraph 1 mean?AInfluence.BConnection.CDevelopment.
