2016年1-4月雅思口语Part1新题预测：社交网络

　　Is social networking very popular in China nowadays?

　　Definitely. I think it’s plain to see that social networking is entwined in many people's daily lives in China these days. Apps such as WeChat or Weibo have hundreds of millions of users and some people are even joining foreign social networks, like Facebook or WhatsApp.

　　当然。我觉得很显然网络社交现在已经和中国很多人的日常生活仅仅交织在一起。像微信或者微博这样的应用程序有亿万用户，一些人还在加入外国社交网络，例如Facebook或者WhatsApp。

　　How did you first learn about social networking?

　　I first knew about social networking through my friends. My first experience was when I was at university and everybody had QQ. It had begun to take off when I was in high school, but I was too busy and didn’t have access to the internet. I remember being very slow at typing back then and talking to lots of strangers online.

　　我最先听说社交网络是通过我的朋友们。我第一次使用是我在上大学时，那会每个人都有QQ。它是在我高中时火起来的，不过那时我太忙了另外也没有网。我记得当时打字很慢而且和很多人陌生人在网上聊天。

　　Will the social network be more and more popular?

　　I think the only way is up for social networking. It's already a massive part of our lives and as more people are able to afford smartphones then there will be more and more users. You can use social networks for so much in your day-to-day life these days that they have become indispensable and we will only become more dependent on them.

　　我觉得社交网络唯一的出路就是往上。它已经是我们生活的一个巨大部分而且因为更多的人能够负担起智能手机接着会有越来越多的使用者。现在你在日常生活中使用社交网络多到它们已经成为不可或缺的而且我们只会更依赖它们。

　　What are the disadvantages of social networking?

　　Social networks allow us to keep in touch like never before, but now that more people have mobile internet it is too easy to spend all your time on them. If you look around on a normal subway carriage, you'll see almost everybody has their eyes locked on their phone, chatting on social networks or looking at what people are posting.

　　社交网络使我们以全所未有的方式互相保持联系，不过既然更多的人手机有网络，太容易把你所有的时间都花在它们身上。如果在一个平常的地铁车厢里环视一下，你会看到几乎每个人的眼睛都锁定在他们的手机上，在社交网络上聊天或者看人们在发布什么。

　　Should parents allow their children to use social networks?

　　I think it can be very unhealthy for children to use social networks. It can be hard enough to go through school life, but the pressure to have many online "friends" and get "likes" when you post photos can be crushing. Unfortunately parents have little choice but to allow their children to use them, otherwise it could be even more damaging to a kid’s social life.

　　我认为对于孩子来说使用社交网络会很不健康。经历学校生活已经够艰辛，但是有很多网友和发布照片时获得点赞的压力可能会把人摧毁。不幸的是，父母几乎没有选择只能允许他们的孩子使用它们，否则可能更会毁坏一个孩子的社交生活。
