When I was a college student, I did a lot of traveling abroad. That was because a professor me to do so. She said, “Now it is the time for you to travel around the world, your knowledge through actual experiences and have fun?” I her.
Since I started to work for a company, however, I have done most of my traveling through the Internet. By using the Internet, I have seen the of many cities on my computer screen. And I have really made business , too. With the help of the Internet, I have also got about food in different countries.
Therefore, I was beginning to feel that actual trips were necessary when I happened to read a famous chef's (厨师) comment on the Internet. He said, “It is very difficult to have real Italian food in a foreign country, because we enjoy food and the
around us at the same time. So why don't you fly over to Italy and enjoy real Italian ? “Those words reminded me of my advice. As information technology , you might be able to do without making some real trips. But this also means that you will miss the various you can get from traveling.
Today there are people who direct communication with others and spend much of their time on the Internet. It is not surprising to see a group of people not with each other but into their micro phones. It seems as if such people are by an invisible wall. They seem to be losing out on a good chance to and talk with other people. I do not think that they are taking good advantage of information technology. We should use information technology as a tool to make our daily more fruitful. However, we should never let it our time for face to -face communication. Let's make use of information technology more , and have great fun in experiencing the actual world.
