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.

【推荐1】With the development of technology, WiFi is becoming more and more popular and important in people’s daily life. But have you ever experienced it? Just imagine what life will be like if there is no Internet. Maybe you won’t be able to talk with friends, play video games or search for information for your homework on the Internet.
But in fact, only one third of the world’s population is able to get information on the Internet. The rest are too poor to buy WiFi access（使用权）or they live in remote areas. As a result, they live without the Internet.
Google and Facebook, two world-famous technology companies, have decided to do something about it. Google’s Project Loon will try to send balloons which are 15 meters wide into our Earth’s stratosphere（平流层） in 2015. The balloons are made of a special material that is three times thicker than the plastic bag we use every day. Each balloon will carry a minicomputer and a WiFi radio. The WiFi radio will send the Internet over the areas and it is floating over. Then people can get up-to-date information on weather or news.

【推荐2】Many young people like going online very much. According to a new report, young people in China aged between 14 and 35 spend more than a quarter of their time online every day.
The report says those born in the 1980s spend 6.2 hours each day on the Internet while the post -90s generation (90后的一代) go online for 6.5 hours. And 10:00 p. m. is the most active time for younger Internet users.
The report also says that the young online users input (输入) 29 billion characters each day. And the emoji (表情符号) symbol meaning “ I don’ t know whether to cry or to laugh ” is the most commonly used of all symbols.
According to the report, the voice input is getting more and more popular, especially among younger users. The Sogou Piny-in, a popular Chinese input software (软件), receives almost 240 million voice inputs every day.
“Although young Chinese Internet users have a strong personality and like to complain (抱怨), they are smart enough to identify things,” the report said. “When they are in the face of online rumors, they usually choose not to believe them and try their best to stop them from continuing to spread.”

【推荐3】While the start of a new school year is always exciting, this year was even more so for some students at White Cloud Primary School. They became the world’s first kids to be taught by an electronic teacher is not a human-like robot walking around the classroom. Instead, he is a computer-created head that appears on students’ computer or phone screens. His name is Bill.
Created by technology company Smart Machines, Bill is able to show human-like behavior. He is designed to teach a special program about environmental-friendly power created by the sun and wind. This program, started in 2005, used to be taught by human teachers.
Just like human teachers, Bill is able to immediately respond to the students’ questions and opinions about the topic. Thanks to computer cameras, he is also able to see and react to students’ physical actions. For example, if a student smiles at Bill, he responds by smiling back. This two-way exchange helps get the students’ attention. More importantly, it allows the program developers to improve Bill’s behavior and knowledge base when needed.
The program has been a great success according to Smart Machines spokesman Robert Frost. Frost says, “What is interesting to me is the children’s reaction to Bill. He really captures their attention.” Frost thinks kids don’t find the experience of being taught by smart machines as strange as older people because they have grown up in a time of computers and smart phones.
It is doubtful, however, that human educators will lose their jobs to Bill any time soon. For one, this talking head’s knowledge base is not large. More importantly, even the smartest computer programs can’t guess and react to all the unexpected situations that educators face daily. Bill’s future might be as a “personal tutor”, providing kids with one-on-one help for different subjects and topics.

【推荐1】The world is not only hungry, but it is also thirsty for water. This may seem strange to you, since nearly 70% of the Earth’s surface is covered with water. But about 97% of that is sea water, or salt water which is not drinkable. Man can only drink and use the other 3%—fresh water from rivers, lakes, underground, and other sources. But we cannot even use all of that. However, our need for water is becoming larger almost day by day. We should take steps to deal with this problem now and in this way we can avoid a serious worldwide water shortage later on.
We all have to learn how to stop wasting our valuable water. One of the first steps is to develop ways of reusing it. Today in most large cities, water is used only once and then sent out into a sewage system. From there it returns to the sea or runs into underground places.
But even if every large city reused its water, we still would not have enough. All we have to do, to make use of sea water in the world, is to remove the salt. If we take these steps we’ll be in no danger of drying up.
1. About ________ of the Earth’s water is fresh.| A．70% | B．30% | C．3% | D．1% |
| A．man hasn’t got enough food to eat |
| B．we haven’t got enough fresh water |
| C．only 70% of the Earth’s surface is water |
| D．more water is sent into a sewage system |
| A．much and salty | B．dear and useful |
| C．cheap and useful | D．much and helpful |
a. Make full use of the sea water.
b. Carry salt water into lakes or rivers.
c. Try to save the fresh water as much as possible.
d. Do our best to use the water again.

【推荐2】Nobody wants to lose, but we must accept that losing is a part of life. After all, we can’t win all the time. However, we can learn something valuable from every failure (失败). This may help us succeed in the future. So we must know how to be a good loser.
We mustn’t be afraid of losing. When we lose, just take it with a smile and look on the bright side of it. Failure can’t be avoided in our life. Edison failed 10, 000 times before he invented the light bulb (灯泡). When he was asked how he felt, he said that he hadn’t failed10, 000 times but had learned 10, 000 things which didn’t work. We must know that history is full of examples of men and women who achieved success although they failed many times.
Losing is not very disgraceful. We must accept our failure and learn to take advantage of it. Remember that it can be helpful. Take action to walk out of it. When we lose, think about what we did and how we can improve. If someone else can help, we’ll be lucky enough. Maybe he or she has been through the same experience before. Many people enjoy helping others solve problems. This can save us a lot of time in learning how to avoid the same mistakes in the future.
We should face our failure when we lose. There is only one winner in every competition. Some win, while some lose. That is a usual way of life. If we offer our congratulations (祝贺) to the winners and share in their happiness, we won’t feel sorry for our failure.
In a word, being a good loser will help us to succeed in life. It might be painful at the beginning, but there are many advantages. Good losers set examples to us, and most importantly, they finally win.

【推荐3】With her eyes feeling increasingly tired and her vision blurry (模糊的) 16-year-old Sun Run went to the hospital with her parents in January. She was shocked when she found out that her eyesight dropped from 5. 0 to 4.6 in only a term. “A few of my friends have had the same experience recently,” Sun said.
In fact, poor eyesight among Chinese primary and high school students rose from 59.2% to 70.6% in the first six months of 2020, according to the Ministry of Education.
To protect students’ eyesight, the Chinese government worked out new requirements for school supplies and equipment (设备). These requirements began to take effect on March 1, 2022. For example, according to the requirements, the size of text in students’ textbooks should be no smaller than nine-point (小五号). Teachers should also avoid using electronic devices (电子设备) that are too bright.
There are also requirements for desks and classroom lights. For example, these lights should give off as little blue light as possible.
Blue light is bad for our eyes, as it can kill the photoreceptor cells (感光细胞) we need for eyesight. Many of the electronic devices we use every day, including our mobile phones and computer screens, give off blue light.
The Chinese government has also taken other steps to protect students’ eyesight in China. The National Health Commission requires schools to make sure that students have at least two hours of outdoor activities a day.

Many people who win lots of money may suddenly find that they have a lot of socalled(所谓的)friends. The new friends they make may follow them for their money but they may also leave them when all the money is spent. Besides that, they can’t decide what to do with the money, so they try to think what they want. In the end, most people usually decide to save the money.
There are some lottery winners who decide to quit(辞职)their jobs, because they think they have enough money and don’t need to work any longer. Some big lottery winners make even bigger changes—they end their marriages. They think that winning a lot of money has suddenly made them more intelligent and more attractive(有吸引力的).So they feel that they have to be with a younger or more attractive man or woman.
They don’t know their new money is just a bit of luck. It can’t change everything.
Next time when you buy a lottery ticket, think about what you would like to do and what you wouldn’t like to do with the money if you won.

【推荐2】Life in the future will be different from life today. Between then and now many changes will take place, but what will the changes be?
The population is growing fast. There will be many people in the world and they spend most of time doing sports, watching TV, traveling and surfing the Internet. Traveling will be much cheaper and easier. And more and more people will go to other countries for holidays.
There will be changes in our food, too. More land will be used for（将被用来）building new towns and houses for all people. Then there will be less room for cows and sheep, so meat will be more expensive. Maybe no one will eat it every day. Instead, they will eat more fruit and vegetables. Maybe people will be healthier.
Work in the future will be different, too. Dangerous and hard work will be done by robots. Because of this, many people will not have enough work to do. That will be a new problem.
