【正确答案】 Will Phones Kill Letter Writing? With more and more accesses to phones, calling has gradually become a prevailing way of long-distance communication. Will the wide application of phones kill letter writing? I don''t think so. There are two justifications listed to support my argument. First, phone is more expensive than writing letters. Although the fee for calling has declined a lot as a result from the competition between Unicom and Telecom, yet it is a fairly money-costing business if you call with high frequency. Compared with calling, writing letters is really low-cost. A piece of paper, a pen, an envelope as well as a stamp, whose face value is generally not more than 1 yuan, are all you need for sending a letter to your friends. Second, phone is not a good way of expression for those who are very shy to speak. By comparison, you may find that writing letters provides you more time and space to polish your idea. With these two advantages of writing letters, you may agree to my standpoint that letter writing won''t be substituted by phones.
