The Internet is changing the way we see the world — from news to shopping. Will the Internet give everyone the same chance to get the messages, or further divide those who know from those who don't?

The Internet has taken much business from traditional markets. People can go online and find out what has happened in the last few hours, and for free, too! They can buy almost everything at a lower price on the Internet. So some people worry that the Internet will take away their jobs.

The Internet opens interesting possibilities for more choices. People can start their own business through Vlog (video blog). Li Ziqi, a famous Internet celebrity (名人), recorded her cooking and posted the videos on the Internet. Her story is so well-received in the West that foreigners even buy knives of the same model from Taobao.com.

Though the Internet brings chances, sometimes it can hurt people. Whether the Internet is right or wrong, it is here to stay. We should make use of the Internet in a proper way. This will provide a healthy environment for Internet safety.

No visit to Paris is complete without a trip to Louvre Museum, one of the largest and most famous art museums in the world. About 35,000 works of art from different centuries are on show, of which the Mona Lisa is the best-known.

Heavy snow, cold wind and thin oxygen (氧气), Mount Qomolangma seems to say no to any climber who dreams about making it to the top of the world. Tenzing and Edmund were the earliest to arrive at the top, but they were up there for just 15 minutes before coming down.

In the north of England lies Lake District National Park, which is very beautiful, with hills, lakes and forest. Most tourists enjoy walking around the lakes and climbing mountains. Lake District National Park is also a perfect place to paint the beautiful countryside.

One day, I was with my friends. We were having a picnic in the field and I saw something strange. A white cat with a pink nose was sitting in a tree. There was nothing strange about that, of course, but it was eating the leaves in the tree! That was strange! Cats don't usually eat leaves. "Probably it's very hungry," I thought.

While I was looking at it, the cat got out of the tree, jumped down to the ground, walked across the field and sat next to us. It was possible that it wanted some of our picnic to eat, but there was nothing for the cat. The cat got up and came close to me. I talked to it and it smiled at me.

Was it a Cheshire cat? I found some biscuits in my pocket and gave them to the cat. Soon, it was eating biscuits and smiling at us. Then, after a while, the cat got up and walked across the field. I thought it wasn't hungry any more.

Chinese has a long history. It has shaped other languages in Asia the way Latin has shaped languages in the West. With this history, will Chinese have a surprising future?

Over one billion people speak Chinese in the world — far more than any other language. It is the language of the country which is soon to have the world's largest economy (经济). Chinese people are found studying and doing business all over the world.

In fact, Chinese is definitely going to be a world language. Why is this certain? We must look at the economic and political power (政治影响力) of China, which is increasing every day. In the past, world languages have always been the languages of countries with powerful economics. Latin, French and English were important because of the power of the countries that spoke those languages.

Foreign interest in Chinese has developed very quickly together with the development of the Chinese economy. Chinese has become one of the most important and popular languages to learn.

As China develops, more and more people will want to learn about Chinese language and culture, to work and study in China, and to do business with Chinese companies. Chinese will one day become an international language.

In modern zoos, we can see animals living naturally in the wild. Grass as well as trees g    61     everywhere, and water runs through the places the animals live in. In an American zoo, every v    62     can walk through a special cage (笼子) which is filled w    63     trees, some small animals and many birds, and the zoo is large enough for the birds to live in more n    64     conditions. Modern zoos not only show animals to us ,but a    65     save rare (稀有的) animals. For this reason, our grandchildren will still be able to enjoy watching these animals.

Joe Richman works as a radio reporter and is looking for a new idea for a radio programme. He met a teenager called Josh Smith. Josh had Tourette's Syndrome — a brain trouble.

Josh was just beginning high school when he was invited to work with Joe on a story about his illness. Joe wanted Josh to keep a radio story of his daily life. He gave Josh a tape recorder and asked him to record what happened to him every day. Josh was embarrassed (窘迫的) to record at school — his friends might laugh.

One day, Josh made up his mind lo take the tape recorder to school. He took it out at lunchtime. What happened next was a total surprise. Everyone started asking him questions about Tourelle's.

That was an important day in Josh's life because he learned to be more open about his condition. He learned a lot about himself and the world by doing the radio diaries. And Joe was happy that many people loved his programme.
