湖北大学社会学副教授张继涛注意到一个校园新趋势：学生的朋友圈变小，而所交的朋友则更为多元而独特。

“Having your life revolve around a *all group of friend*ight have a negative impact on one’s future career after school,”said Zhang to Chutian Metropolitan Daily。

张继涛在接受《楚天都市报》采访时表示：“以狭小的交际圈为生活中心，这对学生毕业后的前途有负面影响。”

However, students seem not to worry about it at all。

然而，学生们对此似乎毫不担心。

20岁的秦元元(音译)是广西大学生物学专业的一名大三学生，他认为如果可以上网的话，就没必要拓宽自己的社交圈。

“The Internet has developed so well that I can get nearlyeverything online. I don’t need to gain knowledge, get informationor have fun with friends around. Instead, I can make friendsonline,” said Qin。

“网络已十分发达，网上的东西几乎应有尽有。我不需要同身边的朋友们一起获取知识、信息或欢乐。我反而可以在网上交友。”秦元元说。

The more time students spent on the Internet, the less theypaid attention to those around them, said Li Zixun, of thepsychology department of Beijing-based China-Japan FriendshipHospital。

北京中日友好医院心理医生李子勋表示，学生们上网花费的时间越多，对身边人的关注就越少。

But Li considers it is not always a bad thing for students tolive independently in campus。

但李子勋认为学生在学校里独立生活并不一定是件坏事。

“This generation does not rely on social contacts to make themfeel secure. They can live independently without having anyrelationships. It is an advantage in cultivating diverse thoughtsamong young people,” said Li。

“这代人不再依赖社交接触来获得安全感。他们不需要任何人际关系便能够独立生活。这对于培养年轻人的多样性思维是个优势。”李子勋说。

对此，湖北大学大一新生何晓(音译)表示赞同。他认为只要你可以和朋友一同感受友情，分享共同的爱好和态度，没必要广泛交友。

作为一名计算机专业学生，19岁的何晓说：“对于我来说，只要有三五好友同我一起打球，一起吃宵夜就足够了。我觉得最重要的是高兴就好。”

来自北京的心理学家李子勋表示，学生身上的繁重压力使得校园里人际关系日益疏远。

“When young people spend so much time and energy studying, itis common to pay less attention to others,” said Li. “Socializingalso requires time and energy。”

“当年轻人将大量时间和精力花在学习上时，通常都会减少对他人的关注。”李子勋说，“社交活动也需要花费时间和精力。”
