[00:08.06]On Social Networks
[00:11.11]The past decades have witnessed a great development in networks
[00:16.57]owing to the progresses in science and technology.
[00:20.30]As a result,
[00:22.04]a variety of networking sites come into our sight,
[00:26.04]with the social networks being the hottest one.
[00:29.15]As is the case with many issues,
[00:32.51]the social networks have both positive and negative sides.
[00:36.87]On the positive side,
[00:39.04]the social networks provide us an opportunity to make friends,
[00:43.83]exchange ideas and so on,
[00:46.88]so it almost becomes an inseparable part of our social life.
[00:51.36]On the negative side, many people,
[00:54.85]especially students,
[00:56.65]may spend so much time on the social networks
[01:00.13]that they neglect their study or work.
[01:02.99]What's worse,
[01:04.43]some people even may use these social networks
[01:08.16]to spread rumors and fake news.
[01:10.59]As I see it,
[01:12.58]the advantages of the social networks
[01:15.37]definitely overweigh the disadvantages.
[01:18.80]The crucial point is how to use the social network reasonably.
[01:24.21]Firstly, we should not indulge in it.
[01:27.75]Secondly, the government should perfect the legal system
[01:32.17]to strengthen the supervision of the social network.
