Учень 1:
Today, the most popular way to communicate with other people is the Internet. There are a lot of pros and cons of online communication.
You are invisible because you are not talking face-to-face, you do not have to meet any of the usual social standards including dress and behaviour. You can speak easily with your friends or relatives, who live in another country. There are a lot of programs, for example, skype, viber. They make your communication easier.
However, there are some cons of communication online. For example, people who do a lot of chatting and always sit not far from the computer don't have time for his or her friends. What is more, they can worsen their health
To my mind, online communication is a good thing, but you should have time to see your friends, to spend time with them. So, online communication should be limited.
Учень 2.
Yes, I agree with you that today our life is connected with the computer. We live in the century of gadgets and technical progress. And of course online communication is very popular today.
Online communication is quick and comfortable. It is also good for busy people. If you are a hard-working person, online chat is a good way to talk to people. You are right, It is good for people who live far from each other. They don’t have opportunities to go for a walk together or to speak in real life.
This is suitable for shy people because they feel more confident.
It is a wonderful way to explore the world for disabled people. Thanks to online communication these people feel needed.
But on the other hand, online communication is sometimes very dangerous. In social networks people often lie a lot. They can tell us all they want. Also, when you talk a lot on the Internet, your real communication deteriorates. Virtual life displaces reality. Usually, people who met on the Internet don’t feel any spark in real life
But as for me, the worst factor is computer addiction. It is like drugs or alcohol. It is very dangerous, and in this situation relatives and friends must help these people. This dependence leads to very bad consequences, even death.
So, in my opinion online communication must be limited, because it is very dangerous for our health and life in general.
Учень 3:
    Nowadays people all over the world use the Internet to stay in touch with each other. There are lots of different applications or social networks that make online communication interesting, comfortable and funny. Obviously there are some advantages and drawbacks in online communication, so is it generally a useful and great thing or a harmful one?

    It is true that the pace of modern life is very hectic today and we need a way of connection that is quick, easy and handy. Different social networks give us an opportunity to stay in touch with our friends and relatives by sending them instant messages or even having a video chat. You can text your pal whenever you need and from wherever you are. Online communication is also highly convenient if your friends or family live far away from you and the only easy way to reach them is using the Internet. Many people agree that using social networks is a comfortable way for humble and shy people to make new friends.

    Although there are plenty of pros in online communication, there are some severe disadvantages. Unfortunately, not all the users of the Internet are open people with good intentions. There are risks of meeting maniacs, liars and crooks. So you have to be very attentive and cautious when you are making new acquaintances on the Internet. Online communication can never replace live conversations, but lots of people get used to the comfort that the Internet provides and they do not intend to go and meet someone in person, since they feel more confident and easy on the Internet than in real life.

    To sum up, online communication clearly has some pros and cons, but I believe that there are definitely more advantages that are quite weighty. If you use it for good purposes and avoid strangers, there shouldn't be any problems. Online communication makes our lives more colorful and exciting. We just have to be cautious and responsible for what we post on the Internet, so that there is a low probability of getting into troubles.
Учень 4:

I should say that there are both advantages and disadvantages of online communication. As a result of the discussion we can mention some of the areas of agreement:
Advantages:
  • cheap
  • collaboration with people abroad
  • finding new or old friends
  • studying online
  • sharing images, videos and other materials
Disadvantages:
  • you can't see your partner's emotions
  • strangers can be dangerous
  • bad influence on your health
  • online games, addiction
  • Individuality degradation
    Учень 5:
    We think online communication should be limited because now 90% of young generation is addicted, so we need to do something. We must be helpful to the world, be productive, conscientious and courteous. We just need to try not to waste time and use the online communication for good purposes.
