The New York Times published an article recently that shows great regret for the "death of conversation"．It suggests that while technology such as cell phones, e-mails, and Internet posting makes us feel more  36  than ever, they’re also driving us  37  from people around us．

Users get final connectivity  38  the price of  39  face-to-face conversation. Sherry Turkle, author of the article in The New York Times says people are  40  to a different way of being “alone together”．

They are so busy creating or polishing their online persona (網(wǎng)絡(luò)人格)that they forget how to live a (n)  49  life. For example, They may  50  more about blogging about attending a party rather than enjoying being  51 .

Chen Chen, a sociology expert at China Youth &Children Research Center, points out that it is still owners of gadgets , such as cell phones and tablets , who’re avoiding personal  53 . We take advantage of these devices to hide ourselves  54  others. Texting messages or calling may be a (n)  55  to avoid contact with others, such as having eye contact. “Only by strengthening conversation can we understand each other.
