【文章內(nèi)容簡(jiǎn)介】 ibing losing their families, I had to almost sit on my hands to avoid reaching out to fort them. The outbreak was declared over in Sierra Leone on 7 November. I returned for the celebrations. But despite reaching this longawaited milestone, all is not well. Ibrahim Koroma, 21, clings to (緊緊抓住 ) his survivor39。s certificate (證明 ) outside the home. All 17 of his family are now dead. The certificate is one of his most prized possessions. He does not pose any risk to the munity it reads. Ibrahim tells me how his landlord has allowed him to stay in one of the rooms of his former family home until the end of the year. He says he doesn39。t know what he39。ll do after that.

According to a research, the average person has in fact twice as many online friends as physical ones. Users of socialworking sites have on average 121 online friends as pared with physical ones. The study also claims that people tend to be more open, confident and honest with their virtual friends than their “real” ones. “For most people , the Inter is a way of keeping in touch with loved ones and friends, but for people who are isolated due to illness, it plays a more vital role, and can often act as a lifeline.” says Helen Oxley, a psychologist at Wythenshawe hospital. “People with illnesses often rely on the Inter to facilitate（促進(jìn)） friendships, since they blog and use working sites as a way of dealing with their illness. It can foster a sense of social connection for those who frequently feel isolated, which is important to psychological wellbeing.” In wider society, the ways in which friendships are formed are changing, with people recognizing that they can develop deep and meaningful connections with others that they?ve never met, and may never meet. About one in 10 people has either met their best friends online, or believes they can make lifelong friends on the Web. The findings highlight how social introductions are also changing. Only five percent would ask for someone?s phone number, while 23 percent are now likely to ask for an address or a full name with the intention of adding the person to their social work. At the same time, however, a questionnaire pleted by 4,427 suggests that 20 percent of parents believe their children?s education is affected by surfing the Net. They think their children are doing poorly at the school due to the amount of time they spend on noneducational websites. 32. The underlined word “it” in Para 1 most probably refers to ________.

What percentage of parents believe that the Inter has a bad effect on their children?
