Talking to friends on WeChat, Wang Chenchen’s mood changes according to her friends’ replies. Long sentences are always heartwarming and happy emoticons indicate the other person’s good spirits. But one word replies like “OK”, “Oh” or “hehe” quickly kill the mood.
Over-reliance on online communication is causing division between people and social anxiety in this digital era. With social media bringing people closer together than ever before, a new set of online language norms also appears.
Connected or separated
Wang Chenchen, 20, an English major at the University of International Business and Economics says, “I tend to judge my friends by the quality and speed with which they comment on my updates on Weibo or WeChat.”
But to Chen Jie, 21, a biological engineering major at Huazhong University of Science and Technology, Wang’s evaluation system is problematic. “Everyone has their lifestyle and a certain way of using social media,” says Chen, who is always busy working in the laboratory and hardly has time for social media.
Ge Yan, a professor of communication at Shanghai Jiaotong University, says social media is causing fragmentation (碎片化) of communication. “People tend to judge their surroundings by the information available,” says Ge. “They also evaluate their friendships and others’ lifestyles based on fragmented pieces of information with which they construct a so-called reality.”
Need for emotion
According to Ge, such superficial communication helps encourage more interaction between people, but in terms of building solid interpersonal relationships it causes more harm than good. An online survey on Sina Weibo last month shows, “hehe” was the top conversation killer in 2013. “The words people hate all have one thing in common — a lack of emotion,” says Ge.
Zhang Wei, a professor of linguistics at Renmin University of China, thinks that such short expressions carry so little emotion that they separate people. Chatting online cannot convey the same emotions as communication in real life. This makes it difficult to understand the other person’s true intentions. “That’s why I always suggest talking face to face to resolve problems,” says Zhang. “Unfortunately the reality is that most people spend less time talking to each other in this way.”
Anxiety and insecurity
Zhang further explains that the reason why people’s mood is strongly affected by such unemotional words when communicating online is rooted in social anxiety. People feel insecure because of all kinds of pressures. It’s like a vicious circle — “Less time for face-to-face communication leads to more online communication, but online expressions of emotion are too changeable to provide the comfort needed,” says Zhang. “As a result, people become more anxious.”

解析
试题分析:在现代社会随着各方面压力的增加,越来越多的人们转向网络去释放压力,寻求安慰,甚至以回复微信或博客的速度来判断朋友。对于这种现象不同的人有着不同的观点,但大多数人认为过多的依赖网络交流能够造成现实生活中人们关系的疏远。
小题1:anxious信息转换题。根据第二段…… is causing division between people and social anxiety in this digital era.可知在数码时代人们更感到孤立,焦虑,缺少安全感,此空填anxious。
小题2:rely/depend/count 信息转换题。根据文章第二段Over-reliance on online communication is causing division……可知人们对网络过度依赖,固定短语:rely on ;depend on ;count on “依赖”,故答案填rely/depend/count。
小题3:use/adopt/employ 。信息转换题。从文章第二段末句a new set of online language norms also appears可以判断人们开始使用一种新的网络语言,故答案填use/adopt/employ 。
小题4:Identity。信息归纳题。根据下栏内容可知以下都是人们的身份,填Identity。
小题5:quickly/fast。信息转换题。根据第三段“I tend to judge my friends by the quality and speed with which they comment on my updates on Weibo or WeChat.”可知他从人们对他微博等评论的速度来判断朋友们,故填quickly/fast。
小题6:lifestyles。信息查找题。从第四段“Everyone has their lifestyle and a certain way of using social media,”判断Chen Jie的观点是每个人都有自己的生活方式,不能用自己的方式来判断一个人,故答案填lifestyles。
小题7:information 信息查找题。从第五段…..based on fragmented pieces of information with which they construct a so-called reality.判断填information。
小题8:. hatred/dislike 信息转换题。根据第六段The words people hate all have one thing in common — a lack of emotion可以判断填hatred或者dislike。
小题9:widen/increase信息转换题。根据倒数第二段…. thinks that such short expressions carry so little emotion that they separate people.可知人民大学教授张伟认为这种网上的交流没有面对面交流更有感情,所以会拉远人们之间的距离,答案填widen/increase。
