So what would happen if one fine morning, you woke up to find the Internet has no existence? How would your life be changed? Well, your lifestyle might be impacted. If you were an Internet addict, you would find that your life has come to an end. With no online facilities, a considerable part of your time would be spent waiting in long lines at banks, post offices or government offices. You would be waiting for days or even weeks for your mail to arrive from another corner of the world. Suddenly, you would realize that your fast-paced life is running at a snail’s pace.‎ Without the Internet, your socializing would also be impacted. If you’d gotten very used to socializing online, you would now be clueless as to how you could share the pictures of your recent trip you went for with your friends across the globe. It would be difficult to interact with people living outside your locality. You might have to become a member of a club or a community in your neighborhood to make new friends. With no online social media, you would find yourself saying this very often: Let’s go and talk to them!‎ With no way to use emails, instant messaging, chat or social media, we would have to take advantage of the option of a telephone conversation, or sending and receiving snail mail. Communication via the Internet is free, whereas the options available otherwise would cost you extra money and time. You would have to write letters and buy stamps, as we used to do before the Internet became popular.‎ The Internet has become a huge sea of information and resources. No Internet would mean no instant and easy access to information at the click of a button. You would have to walk down to your local library and actually search the whole place to get the information you’re looking for, with little chances that you’ll find what you seek instantly. The students who were accustomed to using the Internet for completing their assignments would have a tough time. There would be no way to get an education without actually going to a school or a college physically.‎ Without the Internet, things at your workplace would be turned upside down. If your work was largely Internet-based, your company might have to shut down. If your work involved only minor use of the Internet, for example, using online system to acquire statistics from the Internet, this simple task would now be a complicated and time-consuming process. Your desk would be full of documents and files, and you would have a nightmare searching or sorting them out by hand. In any case, life without the Internet would seem like a nightmare! So enjoy living in the paradise we call the Internet and make wise use of it!‎ Can you imagine the world without the Internet Paragraph outline Supporting details Lifestyle ·It would take you much longer time to get some public (71) ________.‎ ·The pace of your life would (72) ________ down.‎ Socializing ·You would not know how to share your things with your faraway friends.‎ ·You would have difficulty interacting with people living outside your ‎ locality.‎ ·You would need to join a club or a community to (73) _______ new people.‎ ·You would always be obliged to make face-to-face (74) ________ with ‎ others. ‎ Communication ‎ ·Without emails, instant messaging or social media, you would have to use ‎ old communicating ways like telephone conversation.‎ ·Communicating in old ways would be (75) ________ and time-consuming.‎ Information ·Large amounts of information and resources online would no longer be ‎ easily (76) ________.‎ ·The students who were in the (77) ________ of using the Internet would have trouble completing their assignments.‎ ·It would be impossible for students to be (78) ________ via the Internet.‎ Workplace ·Those companies that were heavily (79) ________ on the Internet would ‎ close down.‎ ·It would be complicated and time-consuming to acquire some statistics.‎ ·Your desk would be in a (80) ________ and it would be hard for you to ‎ search or sort something out.‎
