问题     With the increasing use of mobile phones and computers, fewer people tend to write letters. Some people even think the skill of writing letters will disappear completely. To what extent do you agree or disagree? How important do you think letter writing is?
选项
答案     Now people can communicate with anyone in the world with a click of a mouse or a call on a cell phone. So someone is worried that letter writing might disappear completely one day.
    It is undeniable that, in terms of speed, computers and cell phones surely beat the traditional way of communication, such as letter writing. Obviously, the information travels much faster by cell phone conversation or email than sitting down, writing the letter, mailing it and waiting on a response. Today people do not always have the time to put pen to paper, and sometimes immediate contact with someone is needed in many cases. Therefore, to many people writing letters is not the first choice of communication any more.
    However, in spite of all this, there are certain occasions when letters are still the number one choice. The wedding invitations always seem more formal and sincere if hand-written; holiday cards with ink will often delight us more; and a carefully written love letter may intrigue or move your beloved one more easily.
    So letter writing is still necessary even in this Internet era and sometimes unique with its physical being as against other virtual forms of communication. Clearly, there is still a place for the hand-written letter and there is no evidence that this place will be taken by technology in the future.
    Overall, I believe different ways of communication suit different situations, and none of them is going to disappear. So the skill of writing letters would exist as long as human civilisation does.
