There is an old saying that all of us are born with two bags hung on our necks. A small bag in front of our chest is filled up with other people's faults (过错), while the big one at the back is full of our own shortcomings (短处).

So it’s easy to find other people's faults, but it's hard for us to see our faults behind us.

There was a boy, Tommy, who always opened the front bag to check what was in it. He saw other people's faults very quickly. When Simon was impatient with him, he said to Simon, "It's so easy for you to get angry. It is hard to be friends with you."

He told his mother about Jack's dishonesty. “Jack takes my things without asking. He also forgets to return them.” Tommy himself did not like sharing his things with anyone.

When Johnny was too tired to play with him, he said, "'You are such a rude person."

He thought Harry was too proud of his rich parents. But Tommy was proud of himself because he could not see any of his own shortcomings! He could not understand why he did not get on well with others.

If only Tommy would switch the bags around, he would discover his own impatience, dishonesty, bad manners and vanity (虚荣), which were no better than that of Simon, Jack, Johnny or Harry.

We use the Internet for many things: business, shopping, writing letters, talking to people, finding information and so on. In recent years, a new kind of English has grown on the Internet. There's no real word for it yet, so we'll call it e-talk. People don't like typing too much. To save time, they turn phrases into a few letters (called acronyms). Acronyms are often used in chat rooms(聊天室). Some of them are: BTW (by the way); BRB (be right back); LOL (laughing out loud); IMO (in my opinion).

People also use many abbreviations. They are shortened forms of words. Some common abbreviations are: info (information); puter (computer); pic (picture); sec (second).

We usually don't see people when we communicate(交流)on the Net, so people have

new ways to show feelings. Most people use their keyboards to draw "feelings", such as:

:-)  (happy)     ;-)  (joking)       :-(  (sad)        :-O  (surprised)

These days, many forums (论坛) have picture feelings. For example:

 


(happy)            (sad)            (angry)             (cool)

There are even whole new words, like "newbies"(someone who is new on a chat board

or forum). When you write something bad about someone else, it's called "flaming" the

person. It takes time for people to get used to(适应) e-talk. Also, different groups on the Net

have their own special ways of communicating. Newbies sometimes have to ask other people

what they mean. As the Internet grows, e-talk will continue to grow and change.

判断正误。正确(T)错误(F)

(    ) 1. People type acronyms so that they can type them quickly.
