Nowadays people make new friends through social networks and internet chat groups. Some people think that is good. Others think that face-to-face interaction is essential. Discuss both views and give our opinion.
Social networking
sites
are becoming popular these days to make friends
.Some are of the opinion that such
sites
are a great way to know different cultures and traditions of other societies ,whereas others think that physical friendship is a safer option in today's unpredictable world filled with dangerous people
.In my opinion,relying on such
sites
has increased the crime rate globally and should be avoided at all costs.This
essay will discuss both views and lay emphasis on the importance of avoiding such
chat groups to make new friends
.
On one hand,advanced technology has led to rising
in social networking Change the form of the verb
rise
sites
like Facebook and Instagram,where people
around the world are connected at a click of a button.Moreover
,these sites
promote friendship among strangers,who are completely clueless about each other and they often fall into the traps of criminals.For example
, according to a survey,young girls ran away from their houses with the friends
they made on a friendship site and were later found abandoned in other areas.This
is the reason why it is important to avoid making friends
without seeing them or knowing their background.
On the other hand
,global acquaintances opens
the door for cultural diversity.It is a good way to learn different interesting customs and traditions.Change the verb form
open
For instance
,Korean culture has spread to all parts of the world only through these social sites
, Facebook pages liked by millions of people
.Learning something different about other nations local culture is possible when local people
meet each other.
To conclude,although
social sites
are great ways of learning about other nations;however
,the risk of meeting unknown and dangerous people
are more.In my opinion,it is best to avoid such
sites
and make physical friends
