Could we live without the internet
- 1. Could we live without the Internet? Why? (Why not???)
- 2. Why people use the internet? • Internet. It can be understood pretty well because it is very convenient just push the "Start"’ button and search for the necessary information in Google rather than for a long time and most probably unsuccessfully gathering it in the libraries and among the friends. It became so simple to get a piece of advice from a person you want, you need to place you question in a popular social network or in the special websites. So, if to think deeply, nowadays having a computer and the Internet is not a privilege, but it is a primary need, which makes you an inevitable part of the modern world, in which we are living.
- 3. 7 reasons why we can’t live without the internet • 1. To be a part of society. As I was talking in my project above, being a social part is a necessary need and even obligation of every human. To be such one we need to follow the technologies development. And exactly the Internet favors this fact as nothing else does. • 2. To get information they need. Going to the libraries or to different bookstores is no longer popular as at least several years ago because now it will be expensive to buy a book, and very time consuming as it is easier to download and to look through the article you need in the Internet by using Google. Just by several clicks people can reach the data from every corner of the world. Isn’t it amazing?
- 4. • 3. To communicate with each other. E-mail is by far the most inexpensive and efficient way to communicate with persons outside of local calling areas. Can you imagine your life without using Skype or Viber, or without visiting such popular social networks as Facebook,Gmail, Yahoo and so on? I guess the answer will be "No". Because if you once registered then you became addicted to it. Communicating through social network became a normal thing, and to say more now you can have friends all over the world and share valuable knowledge and experience both you and they gained.
- 5. • 4. Jobs The Internet is becoming more and more essential to getting and keeping a job. Increasingly, companies are moving their recruitment efforts online, and larger numbers of job-seekers each day are putting their resumes onto career sites on the Web. More and more frequently, those without Internet access find themselves taking what's left after the electronic job matches already have been made. And those already "on the job" are finding that the Internet is giving a whole new meaning to the term, as more and more people are working remotely from home, using PCs to stay connected to the office. Office workers without Internet access will be increasingly at a disadvantage, as companies move to increase their numbers of "teleworkers."
- 6. • 5. Health care If you need emergency treatment for a toothache, how do you find a dentist, in the middle of the night? Many HMOs now offer benefits and enrollment information 24 x 7 x 365, on the Web. Diabetes is one of many ailments that affect African Americans disproportionately. What's the best way to manage it? Some medical facilities now have the ability to monitor diabetic patients' blood-sugar levels remotely, online. More and more hospitals, private practitioners, and medical researchers are turning to the Web, putting up sites offering valuable information to the general public. American medicine is the most technologically advanced in the world, but Internet access is essential to getting the best it has to offer.
- 7. • 6. Shopping More and more consumer transactions are being done online. It is more efficient and definitely more convenient for shoppers, because it allows them to shop from the comfort of their own homes. Consumers are able to take advantage of the best prices through online auctions, which allow shoppers to name their own prices for goods or services. And, when "traditional" routes fail, the Internet often is the only way to get that hard-to-find item you really want, or need.
- 8. • 7. Education The Internet is transforming education in the U.S. America's public schools are working under a government mandate to get wired to the Internet, and all schools -- public and private, K-12 and college -- are making use of it: distributing and collecting homework by e- mail; holding virtual classes in chat rooms; broadcasting lectures by streaming video; and more. "Distance learning," using information technology, is one of the fastest-growing segments of adult education. Even many professional tutors are taking their services online. And for prospective college students, the Internet offers the best way to search for scholarship dollars. Those without Internet access will miss out on many educational opportunities.
- 9. • In conclusion, we can’t live without internet, because it is very useful and also because in our century this is not a privilege, is a primary need, which makes you an inevitable part of the modern world, in which we are living. But also, we have to be very careful and not get addicted to it because our time is very important.
