I had spent an hour in the bank with my dad to transfer some money (转账). I asked him, “Dad, why not use online banking?”

“Why would I do that? ” he replied.

“Well, then you won’t have to spend an hour here to transfer your money. You can also do your shopping online. Everything will be easier! ” I said excitedly. He asked, “If I do that, I won’t have to go out of the house? ”

“Yes!” I said. I told him how they can deliver the food and clothes to our doors now. And we can buy everything we need by just staying at home.

However, he said, “Since I walked into this bank today, I have met four of my friends. I have much free time, so I like to come to the bank and meet different people. Two years ago, when I was in hospital, the store owner from whom I bought fruit came to see me. And when your mom fell down a few days ago, the bank manager saw her and helped her get to the hospital.”

He went on, “Why would I want to look at my computer all the time? I like to know the person around me. Do Jingdong and Taobao send feelings and relationships between people, too?”

I didn’t know what to say after hearing his words. My dad was right, of course. It's better for us to spend time with real people than computers.
