With just a Wi-Fi connection, we can “friend” anyone across the globe with a single click. However, does an online click mean a real friend? Not always. What we see on social media is often not the whole truth. People tend to post only smiling photos and positive updates to look happy, while hiding their real problems. Even worse, on the Internet, nobody knows who is behind the screen. But we should not throw the baby out with the bathwater. Technology is a helpful tool, but true friendship requires exchanging sincere feelings in real life. As Aristotle said, no one would choose to live without friends. Let us step out from behind our screens, cherish real friends, and listen to each other with our hearts! Thank you!（155 words） 【范文二·豪华版】Good morning, teachers and peers, In this hyper-connected era, a single click can instantly link us to like-minded souls across oceans. Advances in technology have undoubtedly revolutionized how we acquire friends and maintain relationships. Yet, beneath this sparkling convenience lies a profound paradox: our screens are crowded with contacts, but our hearts often feel desolate. Why? Because virtual intimacy is frequently an illusion. On social media platforms, curated feeds and smiling portraits often conceal authentic vulnerabilities. As the old adage warns, “On the Internet, nobody knows you’re a dog.” When “friend” degrades from a sacred noun into a thoughtless verb, superficial interactions replace genuine mutual commitment. Nevertheless, this sobering reality does not mean we should throw the baby out with the bathwater. The medium of connection may evolve, but humanity’s timeless longing for authentic companionship remains unshakable. As Aristotle wisely observed, no one would choose an existence devoid of friends, even possessing all other worldly goods. Therefore, let technology be our bridge, not our cage. Let us look up from our glowing screens, look into each other’s eyes, and cultivate enduring friendships rooted in truth, empathy, and presence. Thank you!（196 words） Thank you! 结束页。引导学生回味主旨：技术会变，但人类对真友谊的渴望永恒（As Aristotle: no one would choose to live without friends）。作业见上页。 $
