题目内容
18.Personal computers and the Internet give people new choices about how to spend their time.Some may use this freedom* to share less time with certain friends or family members,but new technology will also let them stay in closer touch with those they care most about.I know this from personal experience.
E-mail makes it easy to work at home,which is where I now spend most weekends and evenings.I am so happy that I can work at home very conveniently*.My working hours aren't necessarily much shorter than they once were but I spend fewer of them at the office.This lets me share more time with my young daughter than I might have if she'd been born before electronic mail became such a practical tool.
The Internet also makes it easy to share thoughts with a group of friends.Say you do something fun,see a great movie perhaps---and there are four or five friends who might want to hear about it.If you call each one,you may tire of telling the story.With E-mail,you just write one note about your experience,at your convenience,and address* it to all the friends who you think might be interested.They can read your message when they have time,and read only as much as they want to.They can reply at their convenience,and you can read what they have to say at your convenience.
E-mail is also an inexpensive way to stay in close touch with people who live far away.More than a few parents use E-mail to keep in touch,even daily touch,with their children off at college.
We just have to keep in mind that computers and the Internet offer another way of staying in touch.They don't take the place of any of the old ways.

分析 个人计算机和互联网给了人们消磨时间的新选择.

电子邮件使使我们在家里工作更方便,大多数周末和晚上我都在家度过.我很高兴,我可以非常方便的在家里工作.我的工作时间并不一定比以前短,但是我在办公室里花的时间少了.这让我和我的小女儿分享更多的时间,而如果她在电子邮件成为实用工具之前出生,我们就不会有这么多的相处时间.
互联网也使我们更容易的与一群朋友分享想法.所以有四五个朋友可能想听到你做的一些有趣的事或看的一部好电影.如果给每个人打电话,你会很累.如果通过电子邮件,你只需要在您方便的时候写一份你的经历,然后发送给那些你认为他们会感兴趣的人.当这些人有时间的时候,他们可以读你发过去的邮件,并只读他们感兴趣的东西.他们可以在方便的时候回复你,你可以在方便的时候看他们的回信.
电子邮件也是一种廉价的方式,你可以保持与居住在远方的人密切联系.很多父母使用电子邮件与自己上大学的孩子们保持联系,甚至每天都会联系.
我们只需要记住,电脑和互联网提供了另一种保持联系的方法.它们不能取代任何一种旧的联系方式.
