Email has brught the art f letter writing back t life, but sme experts think the resulting spread f bad English des mre harm than gd.
Email is a frm f cmmunicatin that is changing, fr the wrse, the way we write and use language, say sme cmmunicatin researchers. It is als changing the way we interact (交流) and build relatinship. These are a few f the recently recgnized features f email, say experts, which shuld cause individuals and rganizatins t rethink the way they use email.
“Email has increased the spread f careless writing habits，” says Nami Barn, a prfessr f linguistics (语言学) at an American university. She says the pr spelling, grammar, punctuatin and sentence structure f emails reflect (反映) a grwing uncncern abut the way we write.
Barn argues that we shuldn't frgive and frget the pr writing ften shwn in email. “The mre we use email and its tasteless writing, the mre it becmes the nrmal way f writing，” the prfessr says.
Others say that despite its pr writing, email has finished what several generatins f English teachers culdn't: it has made writing fashinable again.
“Email is a critical new cmmunicatin technlgy.” says Ian Lancashire, a prfessr f English at Trnt University. “It fills the gap between spken language and the frmal methds f writing that existed befre email. It is the purest frm f written speech.”
Lancashire says email has the mysterius ability t get peple wh are usually scared by writing t get their thughts flwing easily nt a blank screen. He says this is because f email's clse similarity t speech. “It's like a circle f fur r five peple arund a campfire，” he says.
Still, he accepts that this new­fund freedm t express themselves ften gets peple int truble. Emails sent in a day almst exceed(超过) the number f letters mailed in a year. But mre peple are recgnizing the cntent f a typical email message is nt ften exact.

A．careless peple use email mre than careful peple
B．email requires peple t change their native language
C．prfessrs in universities dn't need t use email

6．What des the underlined wrd “it” (in Paragraph 4) refer t?
A．The pr writing.

C．we can express urselves in a free way
