  Helen Smith:

  What better way to start off my senior yearin high school than by reading something Iam entirely familiar with?Icouldn’t have described this online revolution any better. The expansion of Facebook and its continuing success make me more interested in theworld of computers and web design and the career choices the)offer.Thanks,Mark Zuckerberg,for“poking” me intoFacebook.

  Kevin Stuart:

  Rather than seeing Facebook as the hottest connection tool,I think it,s more like the latest way to make an already impersonal worldeven more impersonal.How sadthat our society is so isolated that we need a computerto“connect”with others.N0,thanks!I'm going tocontinue hanging out on the street corner,and hope someone builds a village square someday-now,there's aradical idea!

  Robert Meyer:

  Isn’t it a contradiction that so many Americans criticize the government measures fornational security purposes as an invasion of privacy when many of these same people feel free to lay bare their privatelives to public exposure on Facebook?Perhaps it reveals shallow minds orshallow lives.Or worse,doesit reveal a lack of concern about the security of our country?Sad indeed.

  James Brown:

  I eagerly returned from Vacation so I couldsee my nieces who were home from college,only to findthem with their“faces”in Facebook almost all day.They nolonger communicate much with others face to face.No more hanging out at someone’S home.1 wonder what effect mis societalisolation will have on all of us.I hope this isn’t a fiend,I remember all the funface—to—face contact used to be.

  Laura Lee:

  I love email.I live and die byGoogle,but l will never understand the appeal ofFacebook and its vast community of friends.In fact.I’m rathershocked.There are thousands out there who would like to be your friend and demand your time:they’re called books.Pick one up.Life is short.Save your few real friendships for coffee over at Starbucks or invest yourself in a localcause that will form meaningful,lifelong relationships.

  参考译文

  下面这段文字是5个人对于社交网络平台“脸谱”的不同观点。

  海伦·史密斯:

  有什么方式比阅读一些我完全熟悉的东西来展开高中生涯的最后一年更好?我想不出比这个线上革命更好的了。脸谱的扩大以及不断的成功使我对计算机世界、网页设计和他们提供的职业选择更加感兴趣。谢谢马克·扎克伯格,把我带进脸谱。

  凯文·斯图尔特:

  我并不认为脸谱是最热门的联系工具,它更像是使本就没有人情味的世界更加冷漠的最新方式。我们如此孤立以至于要靠计算机彼此“联系”,这真是悲哀。不用了,谢谢!我要继续在街角闲逛,希望未来有一天有人建立一个村庄广场——现在有一个基本的想法!

  罗伯特·梅尔:

  这么多美国人批评政府为了国家安全目的实施的措施侵犯了个人隐私,但这些人中大部分对于把自己的私人生活公布于众,完全暴露在脸谱上又觉得无所谓,这难道不矛盾吗?可能它只泄露了浅显的思想或生活。叉或者更糟,它显示了我们对于国家安全缺乏关心?真的很可悲。

  詹姆斯·布朗:

  我急忙度假归来,这样就能见到从学校回来的侄子们,却发现他们整天都沉迷在脸谱上。他们不再彼此面对面交流。不再去别人家玩。我不知道这个社交隔离会对我们所有人产生何种影响。我希望这不是一个趋势。我记得过去所有面对面的有趣交谈。

  劳拉·李:

  我喜欢电子邮件。我靠谷歌生存,但是我永远无法理解脸谱的吸引力以及它巨大的朋友社区。事实上,我很震惊。在网络之外,有几千人愿意做你的朋友,需要你花时间,那就是书。随便挑一本。生命短暂。一起在星巴克喝杯咖啡,珍惜你少有的真正的友情或者投资当地事业,那会为你带来有意义的一生的关系。
