Unit4 The Virtual World
Part II Reading Task
Comprehension
Content Question
Pair Work
She used to be a television producer, but now she is a writer.
She writes and edits articles online, submits them via email, and communicates with colleagues via the Internet, too.
She could stay computer-assisted at home for weeks, going out only t get mail, newspapers and groceries.
They feel as if they had become one with the computer, and life seems to be unreal.
That people who grew used to a virtual life would feel an aversion to outside forms of socializing.
She gets overexcited, speaks too much, and interrupts others.
She is bad-tempered, easily angered, and attacks everyone in sight, all because she has long become separated from others and lacks emotional face-to-face exchanges with people.
She fights her boyfriend, misinterpreting his intentions because of the lack of emotional cues given by their typed dialogue.
Because we rely on co-works for company.
She calls people, arrangers to meet the few friends remaining in the City, gets to the gym, arranges interviews for stories, doctor’s appointments---anything to get her out of the house and connected with others.
No, she doesn’t feel happy. She feels being face to face is intolerable.
She makes her excuses and flees, re-enters her apartment, runs to the computer, clicks on the modem, and disappears into the virtual world again.
