Your mother and I are fine.We both miss you and hope you are doing well.We look forward to seeing you again the nest time your computer crashes and you come down-stairs fo
3、r something to eat, Love,Mom and Dad.”,Due to the wide use of computers and the development of Internet, more and more people like to chat on the Internet. We tend to pay more attention to electronic communication than to face-to-face contact.As electronic communication is not limited by space, we c
4、an chat with others where there is Internet with our tools such as computers, mobile phones and pads. However, when we chat with others online, we cannot express our feelings fully. Just as the picture shows, the parents cannot touch or hug their child. We know that body language plays an important
5、role in our communication, but the electronic communication cannot do this. For example, when we are sad, we need more love and warmth, a real hug from our parents or friends can mean much more to us than just words through electronic communication.Therefore, though electronic communication brings c
6、onvenience to our life, I still dont think the electronic communication can replace face-to-face contact.,The Impact of the Internet on the Way People Communicate,Internet does exert such a profound effect on our life that it revolutionizes the way of peoples living and thinking.

Both electronic communication and face-to-face contact are important in our life. What we should do it to apply each communication ways in the right wa
