As our meeting places fall silent, save for tapping on screens, it seems we

have mistaken connection for the real thing. Simon Jenkins

I first noticed it in a restaurant. The place was oddly quiet, and at one table a group sat with their heads

bowed, their eyes hooded and their hands in their laps. I then realised that every one, whatever their age group,

was gazing at a handheld phone or tablet. People strolled in the street outside likewise, with arms at right

angles, necks bent and heads in awkward postures. Mothers with babies were doing it. Students in groups

were doing it. The scene resembled something from an old science fiction film. There was no conversation.

Every visit to California convinces me that the digital revolution is over, by which I mean it is won.

Everyone is connected. The New York Times last week declared the death of conversation. While mobile

phones may at last be falling victim to considerate behaviour, this is largely because even talk is considered

too intimate a contact. No such bar applies to emailing, texting, messaging, posting and tweeting. It is

ubiquitous, the ultimate connectivity, the brain wired full-time to infinity.

The MIT professor and psychologist Sherry Turkle claims that her students are close to mastering the art of

maintaining eye contact with a person while texting someone else. It is like an organist playing different tunes

with hands and feet. To Turkle, these people are ‘alone together … a tribe of one’. Anyone with 3,000

Facebook friends has none.

The audience in many theatres now sit, row on row, with lit machines in their laps, looking to the stage

occasionally but mostly scrolling and tapping away. The same happens at meetings and lectures, in coffee bars

and on jogging tracks. Psychologists have identified this as ‘fear of conversation’, and have come up with the

term ‘conversational avoidance devices’ for headphones.

In consequence, there is now a booming demand for online ‘conversation’ with robots and artificial voices.

Mobiles come loaded with customised ‘boyfriends’ or ‘girlfriends’. People sign up with computerised dating

advisors, even claim to fall in love with their on-board GPS guides. A robot seal can be picked up in online

stores to sit and listen to elderly individuals talk, tilting its head and blinking in sympathy.

In his Conversation: A History of a Declining Art, Stephen Miller notes that public discourse is now

dominated by ill-tempered disagreement, by ‘intersecting monologues’. Anger and lack of restraint are treated

as assets in public debate, in place of a willingness to listen and adjust one’s point of view. Politics thus

becomes a platform of rival angers. American politicians are ever more polarised, reduced to conveying a

genuine hatred for each other.

All that said, the death of conversation has been announced as often as that of the book. As far back as the

18

th

century, the literary figure Samuel Johnson worried that the decline of political conversation would lead

to violent civil disorder. Writing 70 years ago, George Orwell concluded that ‘the trend of the age was away

from creative communal amusements and towards solitary mechanical ones’. Somehow we have muddled

through.

The ‘post-digital’ phenomenon, the craving for live experience, is showing a remarkable vigour. The US is a

place of ever greater congregation and migration, to parks, beaches and restaurants, to concerts, rock festivals,

ball games. Common interest groups, springing up across the country, desperately seek escape from the digital

dictatorship, using Facebook and Twitter not as destinations but as route maps to meet up with real people.

Somewhere in this cultural mix I am convinced the desire for friendship will preserve the qualities essential

for a civilised life, qualities of politeness, listening and courtesy. Those obsessed with fashionable

connectivity and personal avoidance are not escaping reality. They may be unaware of it but deep down they,

too, still want someone to talk to.

Question 4: The writer believes the main reason for the decreasing use of mobile phones is.....

A. an overall reduction in the use of electronic devices for communication.

Question 5: According to Sherry Turkle, certain people nowadays are.....

A. an example of something else that people wrongly predicted would disappear.

B. a way of introducing the works of famous writers from earlier centuries.

C. the basis of the theory that people would soon stop talking to each other.

D. the source of information about the current state of political debate in the USA.

Question 8: The writer uses the example of the ‘seal‘ in line 21 to show......

A. how robots can help those unable to find a romantic partner.

B. the negative impact of internet search engines on conversation.

A. Only those who remain polite and courteous will have friends.

B. Nobody can escape the negative effects of the digital revolution.

Question 10: What point is made in the sixth paragraph about the current nature of public discussion?

A. Speakers are expected to behave aggressively towards each other.

B. Political parties are becoming increasingly extreme in their views.

C. Fewer people dare to contradict the opinions of other speakers.

B. I have never stayed there for longer than two years.

C. I had never been there until the year before last.

D. I haven‘t been there since my visit over two years ago.
