When we talk to someone face to face, we try to be polite to them. We believe nicely and are careful not to hurt their feelings. Sometimes when we are on the Internet, we forget that we are also dealing with real people. Did you know there is also a polite way to behave on the Internet? It’s called Netiquette. Here are some examples:

When you type, do not use all big letters. For example, “HELLO, HOW ARE YOU?” looks like you’re shouting. It’s better to write the sentence, “Hello, how are you?”

In a chat room, it’s polite to say hello to other people when you enter. Before you leave the room, you should say goodbye. If you don’t, people may think you’re rude.

If you make a joke, remember to tell people. You can also typeJ or :p. we can use symbols to express many different emotions. On the Internet, we don’t usually see people’s faces. So, we type things to show our feelings. It’s sometimes important to do so, or other people may misunderstand us.

It is very important to be able to control yourself. Losing control may bring things that would never want to see. We can learn something from the following story.

Once a boy often made trouble. His mother gave him many nails （钉子）. She told him to hammer （锤，钉） one in the garden fence （栅栏）, every time he lost his patience （耐心） and fought with someone. The first day he hammered 27 nails. In the following weeks he learned how to control himself better and the number of the nails he hammered became smaller and smaller. He learned it was easier to control himself than to hammer nails.

The day finally came when he didn’t hammer any nails. He went to tell his mother about it. Then his mother told him to pull off a nail from the fence each time he didn’t lose his patience. After some days he told his mother that all the nails had been pulled off. Thus, she took him to the fence and said to him, “You’ve behaved（表现） well, but look at all the holes in the fence. The fence will never be again like it was before. When you fight with someone, you leave wounds（伤口） in him like these. The trouble may be over, but the wounds will always be there.”

So, learn to control yourself before you hammer the nails in the fence. Try not to leave any holes in your past.

    A man once had a dream about the Black Forest In Germany. In his dream he was walking in the forest when two men ran out and tried to throw him to the ground.
