Подробный ответ

Here is a possible version of the TV show discussion:

Presenter

Good evening, everyone! Today we are going to discuss the influence of modern technologies and the Internet on our lives. Let’s start with the first question: is it better to buy something online or to go to a shop?

Expert 1

I think buying online is more convenient because it saves time and gives us a wider choice. But sometimes it is better to go to a shop if you want to see and try the product before buying it.

Presenter

Many students use the Internet to do their assignments and just copy information from it. Is it possible to stop this?

Expert 2

It is difficult to stop completely, but teachers can teach students to give truthful information and to use the Internet for education, not just for copying. They should learn to think and write on their own.

Presenter

Do you think the Internet makes people more impatient?

Expert 1

Yes, sometimes it does. People expect an instant reply and immediate satisfaction. But we still need time to think over our problems and make good decisions.

Presenter

Many people download music without paying for it. Is this a problem?

Expert 2

Yes, it is a problem because it is unfair to musicians and producers. People should pay for music and movies or use legal services.

Presenter

Is it dangerous to meet people on the Internet?

Expert 1

It can be dangerous if you give out personal information to strangers. It is better to be careful and meet people face to face only after you know them well.
