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 can 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 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 convenience to our life, I still don’t think the electronic communication can replace face-to-face contact.

With the development of economy and technology, there are more and more people using mobile phones. When you walk in a street, you can see some people using their phones to chat, to send short messages or to browse the micro-blogs even to watch videos.
Just as the picture shows, some people are using their phones while they are crossing the street. How dangerous it is to do this way. There are many traffic tragedies due to the inattention to traffic lights. Though the stick can help you, but the stick doesn’t have a pair of eyes and it cannot tell you the dangers in front of you. There are many other disadvantages of overusing mobile phones such as making our eyes near-sighted, having less face-to-face communication with our friends and so on.
The mobile phone definitely brings much convenience to our life, but we cannot overuse it. We should make a good use of it and benefit from it.
