Perhaps you have heard a lot about the Internet, but what is it, do you know? The Internet is a network. It uses the telephone to join millions of computer together around the world.
Maybe that doesn’t sound very interesting. But when you are joined to the internet, there are lots and lots of things you can do. You can send e-mail to your friends, and they can get them in a few seconds. You can also do with all kinds of information on the World Wide Web (WWW).                                              
There are many different kinds of computers now. They all can be joined to the internet. Most of them are small machines sitting on people’s desks at home, but there are still many others in schools, offices, or large companies. These computers are owned by people and companies, but no one really owns the internet itself.
There are lots of places for you to go into the internet. For example, your school may have the internet. You use it during lessons or free time. Libraries often have computers joined to the internet. You are welcome to use it at any time.
Thanks to the internet, the world is becoming small. It is possible for you to work at home with a computer in front, getting and sending the information you need. You can buy or sell what ever you want by the internet. But do you know 98% of the information on the internet is in English? So what will English be like tomorrow?
【小题1】What is the passage mainly about?

【小题2】Which is the quickest and cheapest way to send messages to your friends?
A by post     B by e-mail       C by telephone     D by satellite
【小题3】Which may be the most possible place for people to work tomorrow?

Shopping on the Internet is becoming more and more popular. Why do people use the Internet to shop? Some people say it is more convenient. They don’t have to leave their homes to order something; they can shop for anything they want at any time; they can find things for sale that they can’t find in the stores near their homes. Still other people say they can find better prices on the Internet.

    If you want to buy something on the Internet, you need a credit(信用) card. You have to type your credit card number and information on the website(网页) and send them to the store over the Internet. You have to be sure that the store will not use your information in the wrong way. You don’t want someone to get your credit card number, so be careful with it, beause people sometimes steal(窃取) credit card numbers from stores.

    The Internet is also a good place to go window-shopping. Window-shopping is when you look at the things for sale in a store, but don’t plan to buy anything. In window-shopping you can see what kinds of things you are able to get and how much they cost. Some stores like Ross Stores have a website for information about their stores, but not for shopping. Some stores have a website for information about their stores, and can shop on-line there, such as Office Depot, Payless Shoe Source, Safeway. Some stores like Amazon. com are only for on-line shopping.
