首先是立论环节。

　　Today, our topic is “Internet delineates the relationship among people”. Actually, I think the Internet gives us a lot of convenience in our lives. For example, a common situation is that you leave your hometown to go to college. I study in Hainan.

　　Even though the Internet brings us a lot of convenience, it doesn't delineate our relationships. First of all, it provides great convenience. We can have long - distance conversations and so on. Secondly, for those who are shy and don't want to communicate in real life, they can do so on the Internet. Thirdly, regardless of where you are, even in a remote corner, you can communicate online. So, the Internet actually makes relationships closer.

　　自由辩论环节，正方先发言。现在，是你按完按钮开始，还是我说开始后你再开始，你直接开始说“我就要开始了”。

　　I agree. The Internet gives us a lot of meaning in life. For example, in a common situation, when we are far away from home and go to college, we will miss our family members or close friends very much. Like me, I study in Hainan, but my hometown is in Shandong Province. There is a long distance between them. So when I want to communicate with my family, I will use the phone and the Internet. It's very convenient, right?

　　It's definitely convenient. But I think maybe the Internet weakens the relationship among people. You know, even though we can use video calls or other means to contact our friends or family members, when we really want to feel a certain kind of emotion, like happiness or sorrow, we can't fully experience it. For example, we can't have a real physical touch, which is very important in a relationship. When we interact with others, we usually use our five senses, such as sight, taste, and touch. When we have a relationship with our friends or family members, many of our senses are involved. But if we only communicate with others online, we won't have these sensory inputs from our friends or family members. That's why I think the Internet weakens the relationship among people because it can't convey your happiness, sorrow, and gratitude. That's all. Thank you.

　　The other side has said that the Internet can't let us touch our friends. But sometimes, even in reality, we can't touch our friends immediately. Maybe you are in area A and your friends are in area B, and it takes one hour to meet each other. But online, we can just make a video call and see each other. We can also comfort each other. Maybe we are angry, and our friends can console us. This makes our relationship closer. There is an old saying in Chinese about friends. Sometimes, even if we can't touch each other online, we can feel each other's feelings and share everything every day. Eventually, our relationship will become stronger.

　　So I think whether from the perspective of convenience, personality, or area, the Internet doesn't weaken the relationship.

　　自由辩论规则是，你说出一个观点，然后提出一个问题问对方，对方再回答并提问，如此来回进行。

　　我感觉你们把总结的内容都说了，你们总结还要说吗？我想先看你们辩论一下，然后再做总结，这样确实更合适。

　　这个辩题是什么？我觉得“品格”应该就是道德方面的意思。这题目是“你认为道德重要还是成绩重要”。哦，天呐，这个有点难。如果对方说成绩更重要，这有点难辩了。确实。那我们俩石头剪刀布吧，谁赢了就辩“成绩更重要”。

　　成绩更重要应该是反方的观点，我有点不太赞同自己要辩的立场。其实我想跟你换一下，我感觉我想说“道德更重要”。那你先开始，不对，我先开始。

　　Hello everyone, I'm going to talk about the qualities is more important than a grade. In our school, the only standard for evaluating students is grade. But I think the more important thing is what kind of person we are. The most important evaluation criterion is not just grade. So I think the great quality is more important than grade.

　　I think schools are important, but before students enter school, parents' education system is also a standard. If a student wants to go to a better school, he or she needs a higher grade. A grade can also reflect a student's effort and attitude towards study.

　　I want to ask you a question. If there is only grace as the standard in this world, what kind of world do you think it will become?

　　I don't deny the importance of quality, but I think school performance is more important. For example, your parents will compare you with others. They will say, “Oh, but his school performance is very high.” They don't say, “Oh, his quality is very high.” What's your opinion on this situation?

　　I think this is the problem from our parents' opinion. Our quality and our grades influence our lives, but not our parents'. So, I think a greater quality makes it easier to live in this world. Do you think so?

　　I think grades are more important. In our school, some teachers even have different attitudes towards their students. If a student has high grades, the teacher can pay more attention to them. And when we find a job, a company will first check our academic achievements. They don't focus on the quality. Why don't you think that teachers don't pay attention to the quality? Quality is also important in our schools' attitude.

　　I think we should prove our success. Of course, learning skills and knowledge can improve our chances of success. However, in this way to success, our quality is more important than grades. Because in this process, we need to communicate with a lot of people. So, if we have good quality, maybe some people will help us because of our quality.

　　I think your words are just like a man who has no ability but just says "I love you". I think it is so powerless. What do you think?

　　Sure. I think if you love a person, of course, ability is important, but a warm heart is also important. Of course, the evaluation criterion is not just grades. So, when we learn well, we also need to improve our quality.

　　Hello everyone. I think our school always emphasizes the same thing, and the only standard in our school is grades. However, the evaluation of a person is not just about grades. I believe that good qualities are also very important in our daily communication. It makes it easier to live in this world and get along well with others. If grades were the only important thing in this world, everyone might become a cold - hearted person.

　　In our daily life, I think qualities are much more important than grades.

　　I think sports are more important. For college students, in the comprehensive evaluation, qualities only account for a small part, while grades can occupy 16%. So we can see that sports are very important. When we were middle - school students, we often needed grades. And if you want to get into a better school, you need good grades.

　　我们高中有个老师讲过一个把一块馒头掰成两半的爱情故事，这种感情就如同一个没有物质基础的男人的感情。我妈妈也说过，没有钱，就像睁眼瞎。

　　我现在很想知道，明天的活动会不会提前给题目，还是像现在这样，只让我们知道一些题目，然后提前几分钟告知具体内容。明天还要上课，活动持续到后天晚上就结束了。

　　关于观点，我有三个观点。其一，学校往往只有成绩这一个评判标准，但社会并非如此。其二，拥有更好的品质，才能更好地在这个世界上生活。其三，如果只把成绩当作最重要的东西，每个人都会变得很刻板、冷酷。

　　另外，有一段英文表述：“I think computers are good for our study. First, we can search for the answers we are confused about. Second, we can chat, and it can explain our questions. It's also a kind of learning. Third, we can use it to watch videos if we want to learn some skills. Fourth, we can make projects using all kinds of resources. So I think computers are very good for our study. OK, that's all.”

　　还有一段英文反驳：“I think computers are not good for study. First, there are so many distractions. Many students don't have the ability to distinguish which method is appropriate. So they may be attracted by other things, and their attention will be diverted.”

　　OK, you have said that the computer will catch our attention. But sometimes when we want to search for an answer, we may open it.

　　You have said that the computer will catch our attention. Yeah, sometimes when using it, some programs may be opened uncontrollably. But we have homework in our minds. When facing your question, finally we may search for the answer and make progress. So I think computers are good for our study, and we can use tutorial videos.

　　During this process, you claim that there will be a lot of distractions, and it will prevent you from finishing the task. However, there are also instructions for online video - games and short videos, and they can be a source of distraction.

　　You think opening the computer is a waste of time. But sometimes, don't you think it's a form of stress relief? As the homework is still difficult, and because it's so hard, we feel very stressed. So opening the computer is a kind of relaxation. And I've said that finally we all know we have homework to do. Eventually, we will search again, find the answer, and make progress.

　　You think we can't tell right from wrong all the time. But sometimes, we know about all our subjects. We all know what is right and what is wrong. There are so many ways to entertain ourselves. Why do you only focus on playing on the computer? I think we should develop outdoor activities, which are beneficial to physical health, instead of relying on computers.

　　I think students don't lack the ability to recognize right from wrong. Just about several weeks ago, there was a news report. It said that the U.S. government had reduced the mention of a certain common event. It was reported that the common event involved a chemical weapon, which was harmful to many American cities. Yet, some people still believe in it.

　　You said we can find other ways to relieve stress. But when you are doing your homework, would you like to put it aside and do other things? Just opening the phone is the easiest and quickest way to relax.

　　You asked me a question, but I think computers are good for our study. Yes, they can train our ability. If you think there are too many distractions, then why are you constantly engaging with computers? I mean that we can relax ourselves after finishing the task. There are indeed many things that can destroy your attention, but we should be able to finish all our tasks.

　　I think that when you do your homework, you can just use the computer. Sometimes we can just finish our tasks by opening the computer. It depends on our learning needs. I believe the computer is very beneficial for our study. If we can search for answers, it is very clear. There are some videos, and we can also search for information when we need to create something. Moreover, for big news or other news, it can also exercise our IQ.

　　We don't think the computer is all good, but we just search for information to confirm it. Finally, we will get the knowledge that belongs to us.

　　In conclusion, computers are very helpful for our study. We should focus our attention on studying instead of being distracted by other things, such as computers. We are stepping into an information age, an era of the independent Internet. There are so many things that can destroy our attention, and some of them are even harmful, such as what I mentioned before.

　　The information released by the American government may not be true. Additionally, there are many artificial - intelligence - related products. We need to make good use of them. I think this is a great opportunity for us.

　　我认为有几个观点可以阐述。首先，当我困惑的时候，我们可以查答案。其次，我认为在网上聊天也能够锻炼我们的智商，这也是一种学习方式。再者，可以查找教学视频来解决问题。另外，我们写论文或者做项目的时候，可以查一些资源。我举个例子，如果没有电脑，很多事情可能就无法完成。如果说电脑不利于学习，那学习编程不也是学习吗？没有电脑怎么学习编程呢？

　　接下来，关于一些其他讨论。我们辩论进行到现在，已经打了 3 组。有人问是否要发视频到群里。还有关于选择的讨论，有人说要进行网上购物。对于选择，有“great”“good”等选项，有人虽然没什么理由，但因为喜欢所以选择“good”，认为就算不能赢，热爱也是一种胜利。

　　下面正式阐述正方观点。我是正方，我认为网上购物是有益的。有三个优点：第一，网上购物方便我们挑选商品，我们可以在不同的平台比较各类商品，而不用出门；第二，我认为网上购物更便宜。

　　当然，也有人认为网上购物不好。尽管网上购物会给我们带来很多便利，但也存在一些影响因素。比如时间和商品质量方面，你可能需要一些保障，而且你无法真实触摸或试用商品来了解其质量。

　　If, just like you said, the quality is not good, I think the return is also easy. It is easier than buying clothes offline.

　　Yeah, actually, easy returning but it will take a lot of time. If you need the dress just tomorrow because you have a party and want to wear it, it will be difficult for you. What should you do? Actually, this is a special time, just like you have to go to a party tomorrow. But this seldom happens.

　　I want to say that if you just buy some clothes, shoes or something for yourself, you need to take a lot of energy and time to return them and communicate with the customer service. So, I don't think that online shopping will have a lot of security or benefits for you.

　　Actually, I think online shopping, just like what you said, I didn't understand what you meant, so I have to say what I want to say. Online shopping can help us compare each good. It can help us compare goods on different platforms without going outside. It's very convenient. Do you think so?

　　Yeah, actually, online shopping will give us a lot of options about some goods. But do you think you want to buy something very expensive while you are free to buy from some sellers? A few days ago, I bought a delicious food. When I bought it, I found it was a bad deal. So, I think it's not good. I was cheated by online shopping. So, do you think this situation will happen to you when buying some big products? Of course, fake products always happen both online and offline. So, I think this opinion is not valid.

　　Anyway, I think online shopping is cheaper. Although there are also fake goods online. Actually, whether it's online shopping or shopping in a physical store, you may encounter problems with big products. But if you are shopping in a physical store, you can touch the products and try them on. So, you know whether they are suitable for you or not and you know the quality of the products.

　　Yes, but online shopping can also let you try some products. You can buy goods from different platforms at one time, and this will save your time to choose the best goods.

　　Yeah, but for you, you should spend more time to exchange, return and choose another one. 　　Yes.

　　今天我方的观点是，网购是有益的。原因之一在于，它为我们的生活带来了极大的便利，这也是互联网赋予我们的便利之一。我们既可以购买像平底锅这样的小物件，也能购买像汽车这样的大宗商品，并且可以完成从挑选商品到确认收货的整个流程。

　　其次，我们无需出门，就能在不同平台上对比各类商品，这可以节省我们的时间。此外，网购比线下购物更加便宜。

　　虽然网购可能会存在假货问题，但实际上，在任何购物平台都无法完全杜绝这种情况。实际上，网购能为我们提供来自世界各地的海量商品选择。

　　然而，我也理解大家对于网购的一些顾虑。其一，网购无法应对紧急的商品需求。例如，如果明天有一场派对，而你需要一件礼服，此时网购显然来不及，你只能前往实体店购买。

　　其二是商品质量问题。当你购买衣服或鞋子时，你需要亲自了解其质量。如果你前往实体店，你可以触摸、试穿，从而判断该商品是否适合你。商品的质量以及购物环境会给你带来一种安全感。

　　综上所述，我方认为网购和实体店购物各有优劣。

　　正方观点认为网上购物可以在同一时间买到很多东西，有很多选择，十分方便。因为消费者可以在不同的平台对比价格，从而以更便宜的价格购买商品。

　　而我方观点是，如果选择网上购物，首先存在时间问题。若遇到一些特殊情况，消费者可能无法等待较长的物流时间。其次是商品质量问题，网上很多衣服的图片看起来很漂亮，但实际穿上后会发现质量不佳。所以去实体店买衣服似乎更有保障和安全感，能避免买到假冒伪劣产品。

　　我认为对方的观点非常清晰，我完全能够理解。不知其他人有什么想说的？

　　另外，我曾完全忘记要退货，过了一个月商品还在那里，却已经无法退货了。

　　现在讨论一下选择的问题，选哪一个呢？目前我们还没完成这10个事项。我预计8点多能结束，8点结束后你们再打游戏。

　　我们先换个会议吧，没剩几分钟了。

　　关于“大学是否是学生的未来”这一话题，如今就业环境十分严峻，很多学生毕业后甚至难以找到工作。但如果高中毕业后选择工作，经过大约四年甚至更长时间的积累，能让自己变得更优秀，从而在未来找到更好的工作。所以我认为大学并非对所有学生都是最好的选择。我们可以看到，有很多科学家没有上过大学，但他们在世界上取得了巨大的成就；还有很多人没有进入特定的行业，但他们比我们拥有更多的财富。

　　And there are some people who succeed. They are considered successful even though they don't finish their college, or even though they graduated from a different school. They can achieve success, but this is only the case for a few people. For most people who don't have a background with enough money or sufficient resources, they will become workers in the factory. However, many jobs, such as drivers, can be replaced by AI.

　　I think if a machine gets damaged, one needs to spend money to repair it. But if people get hurt, they will use their own money to deal with it. If people don't go to college and just start working after graduation, it is more likely that they will be replaced by AI or controlled by their bosses. So, I think it's better to go to college.

　　But I think going to college is a waste of time and money. College students are almost twenty years old. At this time, we can go outside to see what the future holds. Do you think so?

　　I don't think so. I don't think going to college is a waste of time. College is a so - called semi - social environment. You can see the diversity of society, and at the same time, you can keep your pure heart for four years, read great books, and learn more knowledge. In the last four years, you can gain a lot of knowledge.

　　I think if a person just wants to stay in the countryside and be a farmer, they don't need to worry about whether they should go to college. Going to college not only provides knowledge for a better future but also allows you four years without having to worry about the current work.

　　Not everyone is good at studying. If someone is not good at studying but is always pushed to study hard, it won't end well. I think if those who are not suitable for studying are forced into it, it will be a negative thing for society.

　　In our opinion, college is the best future for students. The college provides an environment where students can have a realistic understanding of many things. They can decide which products should be developed.

　　During these four years in college, students can train themselves to think more logically. They can acquire knowledge about future sales, which is also an important way to enhance their education.

　　Different people have different passions. If someone wants to be a scientist, they need to go to college to receive higher education. However, if someone just wants to be a farmer, they don't need to go to college.

　　I think the most important thing is that people can be happy and satisfied with their lives. Going to college is not the only path to the future.
