概述
隨著科技的日新月異，筆記本電腦和智能手機逐漸成為大眾消費品，各種社交網站和軟件也因此應運而生，諸如微博、微信、Facebook等拉近了人與人之間的距離。人們通過社交軟件交流信息、“曬曬”自身經曆，從中收獲很多樂趣。但社交網站和軟件的普及與推廣也產生諸多弊端，它將人們的各種細微信息暴露在公眾麵前，使個人隱私成為一種“奢侈”。而且，人們習慣用社交網站和軟件進行溝通後，越來越不擅於進行麵對麵的交談，雖然社交網站和軟件使人們的交流更便利，但卻拉大了人與人心靈之間的距離。
一、寫作思路 首段：可介紹當前人們利用社交網站和軟件進行溝通和交流的現狀。也可以如下麵的範文所示，按照漫畫的思路講一個笑話，以輕鬆調侃的方式引入話題。
中段：說明社交網站和軟件給現代人的生活帶來的便利，比如可以幫助人們迅速了解朋友們的近況、分享自己的日常生活狀態、快速與朋友和同事進行溝通等。隨後可說明社交網站和軟件的弊端，如一部分人整日在其中消磨時間，生活狀態很糟；還有人沉迷於用社交網站和軟件進行溝通，與親人和朋友麵對麵傾心交談的機會越來越少；青少年缺乏必要的社交技巧，容易在社交網站和軟件中迷失方向，這對他們未來的發展極為不利。
末段：說明應謹慎使用社交網站和軟件，避免沉湎其中。
二、參考範文和譯文 參考範文
Social Networking
In the picture presented above, the minister changes the traditional end of the marriage ceremony from "you may kiss the bride" to "you may update your Facebook status." Apart from the humor, this cartoon also shows us how social networking is changing the way we interact with people, and not always for the better.
It is true that social networking sites and software like Facebook or Weibo do help us connect and interact with friends as well as collect and share information quickly and easily. However, they have a serious disadvantage in that most people do not know how to use these social networks effectively, spending too much unnecessary time on it or even getting addicted to it. In this sense, social networking can become a big waste of time for those who do not have a strategy for using these social sites and software. What's more, through too much exposure to online communication, face-to-face socialization time is reduced or even eliminated, and users—particularly high-risk teens—are not developing necessary social skills.
