【推荐2】Cyber Cafes (网吧) or computer centers are found in many cities around the world. Now, a few American high schools are opening these centers. For example, a high school in the state of Maryland began operating a Cyber Cafe last March. All students at Bethesda-Chevy Chase High School in Bethesda can use the Cyber Cafe. But school officials say it’s set especially to help students who have no computer or cannot use the Internet at home.
The officials say thirteen percent of the students at the school are from poor families. Many students have arrived in the United States from other countries recently. Students in the school’s program for learning English speak twenty-three languages.
The idea for a Cyber Cafe at Bethesda-Chevy Chase High School began three years ago. At that time officials were planning to restore the school building. Parents interested in technology proposed (建议) to build a Cyber Cafe.
Over two years, money for a Cyber Cafe and other new computers was collected. It received more than one hundred and seventy thousand dollars. The Cafe now has sixteen computers, a printer and a scanner (扫描仪). School official Ann Hengerer says students use the Internet to complete research. They also write homework and required papers on the computer. In addition, they can send and receive electronic mails. That is especially helpful for many students who have family members in other nations.
The Cyber Cafe also serves a social purpose. Visitors can stop by for a drink of coffee, tea or hot chocolate.

【推荐1】For some travelers, a catamaran (双体船) sail off Oahu, Hawaii, or a camel ride through the desert in Morocco isn’t an enviable vacation experience. It’s an encounter with nausea, dizziness, and cold sweats. Motion sickness like this can happen to almost anyone, including children and dogs.
The easiest way to overcome motion sickness is to prevent it from happening in the first place.
“And be careful what you eat when you travel,” says Bubka. Anything that upsets your stomach on dry land—eating too much (or too little), drinking excessive amounts of alcohol or caffeine—could be amplified by motion.
“Do everything you can to be sure your view isn’t blocked,” says Natascha Tuznik, a doctor who specializes in travel medicine at the University of California Davis.

They also tend to prefer instant messaging to e-mail, and they are depending on the Internet more frequently than before to communicate with others who have the same professions, hobbies and political interests. Online purchases still remain unpopular in China. Three-quarters of users surveyed have never bought anything over the Internet, and only 10 percent make purchases even once a month. Among those who do buy online, most pay for entertainment while others buy phone cards, or computer hardware or software.
“Many people don’t trust the quality of goods bought online,” Guo said Wednesday. “If they buy it in a store and don’t like it, they can easily bring it back.”
The survey was done in five major cities: Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, Chengdu and Changsha. Results do not necessarily project countrywide because Internet use in rural areas is lower than in cities. Guo describes the typical netizen in the five cities surveyed as young, male, richer and more highly educated. Males make up two-thirds of the Internet community, and more than 80 percent of users are under 24. Among people ages 25 to 29, 60 percent to 80 percent go online.
China has more than 100 million people online, second in the world to the United States.

【推荐3】Saving money for the future is one of the great passions of wealthy people. The rich are getting richer because of the way they spend their money and successful habits of controlling their expenses. Warren Buffett is considered one of the most successful investors (投资者) in the world and his money totals over $105.2 billion as of November 2021. Well aware of the benefits of saving money, he is not fond of buying expensive things and always practices spending money wisely.
Did you know that Mark Zuckerberg, one of the youngest billionaires and co-founders of Facebook, is a great saver? His wedding was held in the backyard in Palo Alto, California, rather than in a fancy five-star hotel. During the couple’s honeymoon in Italy many people saw them eating in McDonald’s. This guy is still wearing ordinary T-shirts to work every day. Saving money is important to him to grow his wealth and grow it quickly. He uses extra money to put into other businesses and investments. With your savings you can immediately start investing. However, if you are overspending your income, there is no money left for investment.
“The man with extra money controls circumstances and the man without it is controlled by circumstances.” said Henry Buckley. Saving money for the future gives you protection for unexpected circumstances. You don’t know what will happen to you over the next days or weeks. If you lose your job, you can still survive while looking for a job because you have your savings. You will not stress out if there is an emergency because you have money to spend.
And living below your means can give you plenty of room to save. You can use your savings to pay off your house loan early. You can also pay down your debts from friends, family and even other lenders. The bigger you have saved, the earlier you can achieve debt-free life. Also, people who are fond of saving money for the future can retire early. These are the people who are thinking about their future dream life without pressure after 10 years or 20 years.
Saving money for the future is essential. Today will not be the same as tomorrow. You don’t know when the rainy season will come. Every day is full of surprises, and to be ready for uncertainty, save now for your future.
