I am Alice. I am 60 years old. As for me, I don’t like WeChat. Now many people, especially young people, lose themselves in WeChat. They pay no attention to the things around them. For example, last Sunday my kids came back home to have a family meal with us. They didn’t chat with us, or did any housework. Instead, they kept looking their mobile phone and did what they like on WeChat. I felt angry with them. I have to say it again. I don’t like WeChat. |
My name is Jim. I think WeChat is an important tool for us. But we have to use it properly. When we want to talk with our friends and we are not in the same city, it can help us to make it. When we drive our cars, we can’t use it because it is too dangerous. Using it or not depends on different situations. |
