So, ... Student A Student B Do you prefer to make friends online? Why? Possible version 1: I am against making friends online. As far as I am concerned, first of all, friends online aren't real. And we don't have enough time to chat with them on social apps. What's worse, if we exchange true personal information online, we can be deceived. On the Internet, nobody knows you’re a dog. We could even share our information with criminals. So, making friends online isn’t secure! I am for making friends online. From my point of view, although online friends cannot be always trusted, the benefits far out weigh the risks. First of all, it is easy and quick to get to know people and make new friends online who share our interests from all over the world. We can stay in touch with the people that we want to remain friends with and maintain friendships only by a Wi-Fi connection.What’s more, we can also practice our English in speaking and writing. Additionally, chatting with people from different places and social backgrounds is surely an effective way to understand other cultures and develop cross-cultural communication skills. We should take advantage of it, and should not throw the baby out with the bathwater. Read this passage again, underline the language points and review the grammar: Attributive Clause.
