Possible answers for the presenter
E-commerce has become very popular. Is it better to buy online or to go to a shop? Why do you think so?
I think both ways have their advantages, but buying online is often more convenient. You can compare prices, save time and order something at any moment. However, going to a shop is better when you want to see and try the product before buying it.
Many students use the internet to help them do their assignments and they just cut and paste information from the internet. Is it possible to stop this? How?
It is difficult to stop this completely, but teachers can reduce it. They can give creative tasks, ask students to explain their answers in class and check whether they really understand the material. Students should also be taught to give truthful information and use the internet for education, not for cheating.
Many young people in Japan lock themselves in their bedrooms, sometimes for years, to escape the pressures of life. They refuse to see people, but they still use the internet and mobile phones. Do you think this will happen in Russia? Why do you think so?
I hope it will not become common in Russia. Some young people may prefer online communication, but most of them still need real friends and face-to-face contact. The internet can help people communicate with people from different countries, but it should not replace real life.
Does the internet make people more impatient, so that we all expect an instant reply or immediate satisfaction? Don’t you think people need more time to think over their problems?
Yes, in some ways the internet makes people more impatient because everything happens very quickly. People get used to instant messages and fast answers. But it is important to remember that serious problems need time to think over, and not everything can be solved immediately.
Many people download MP3 music without paying any money for it. Do you think that this is a problem?
Yes, I think it is a problem because it is unfair to musicians and producers. They work hard, and they should be paid for their work. At the same time, people should have legal ways to download music or movies.
Do you have any ideas or ambitions to start an internet company? Is it dangerous to meet people on the internet?
Yes, I would like to start an internet company connected with education, for example online courses of English. Meeting people on the internet can be dangerous if you do not know who they really are, so it is important to be careful and never give out personal information.
Would you like to go on a date with someone you meet on the internet?
Maybe, but only if I had already talked to that person for a long time and felt safe. It is better to meet in a public place and tell friends or parents about it. Safety is very important.
