Topic 1: A major advantage/disadvantage of the Internet A Major Disadvantage of the Internet With its coverage spreading all over the world at an astounding speed, the Internet is becoming an increasingly essential element in the modern life. While its influence becomes dominant in our lives, we often take for granted the negative effects of the Internet, the most horrific of which, the indulging power of it. To begin with, the too luxurious content of the Internet makes it almost impossible for people to retreat from the screen. When people find themselves good excuses to spend hours in front of the computer like “searching for information”, they are simply clicking links after links, which do not necessarily have anything to do with the information they are looking for. For one thing, the huge amount of information is not well organized for most of the time, and it usually costs hours to sieve useful things out. For another, the distractive power of the Internet is more often than not overwhelming. For instance, one plans to look for information on medicine, and after using search engines and clicking on various links, it turns out that he has gone to a romance website instead of a medicine one. What’s more, the Internet is extremely dangerous for non-adults, considering its magical power to make them indulged. Children, especially juveniles, fall easily victims of Internet because of their immaturity of controlling their online time. The hours spent online flies too fast to perceive, and all the chatting and gaming are too attractive to say goodbye. An increasing number of adolescents are becoming incurable netizens, daydreaming their youth away. As a closing statement, although the Internet provides much convenience for modern people, it definitely does harm to us at the mean time. The indulging effect of the Internet jeopardizes the lives of adults as well as those of youngsters, making it a major disadvantage of the Internet. 点评 【结构】本文结构清晰，层次分明。 首段：
