21、The Internet is becoming important in our life. How much do you know about it? The following questions and their answers will help you to know more about the Internet.

  What is the Internet?

  The Internet is a large, world-wide collection (聚集) of computer networks (网络). A network is a small group of computers put together. The Internet is many different kinds of networks from all over the world. These networks are called the Internet. If you have learned to use the Internet, you can have a lot of interest on the World Wide Web (网) .

  What is the World Wide Web?

  The World Wide Web has been the most popular development of the Internet. It is like a big electronic (电子) book with millions of pages. These pages are called homepages. You can find information about almost anything in the world on these pages. For example, you can use the Internet instead of a library to find information for your homework. You can also find information about your favourite sport or film star, talk to your friends or even do some shopping on the pages. Most pages have words, pictures and even sound or music.

What is e-mail?

Electronic mail (e-mail) is a way of sending messages to other people. It’s much quicker and cheaper than sending a letter. If you want to use e-mail, you must have an e-mail address. This address must have letters and dots (点) and an @ (means “at”). For example: Lily @ Yahoo.com. Write a message, type a person’s e-mail address, and then send the message across the Internet. People don’t need to use stamps, envelopes or go to the post office because of the invention of the Internet. Quick, easy and interesting — that’s the Internet.

22、There was a boy in India who was sent by his parents to a boarding school. Before being sent away this boy was the cleverest student in his class. He was at the top in every competition. But the boy changed after leaving home and studying in the boarding school. His grades started dropping. He hated being in a group. He was lonely all the time. And there were especially dark times when he felt like killing himself. All of this because he felt worthless(没有价值的) and that no one loved him.

His parents started worrying about the boy. So his dad decided to travel to the boarding school and talk with him. They sat on the bank of the lake near the school. The father started asking him common questions about his classes, teachers and sports. After some time his dad said, “Do you know why I am here today, son?”

“No, no,” his dad replied, “I am here to tell you that you are the most important person for me. I want to see you happy. I don’t care about grades. I care about you. I care about your happiness. You are my life.”

These words caused the boy’s s eyes to fill with tears(泪水). He hugged his dad. They didn’t say anything to each other for a long time.

23、As a man was passing the elephants, he suddenly stopped, he was surprised to see that these huge elephants were being held by only a small rope tied to their front leg. It was clear that the elephants could easily break away from their ropes but for some reason, they did not.

He saw a trainer nearby and asked why these animals just stood there and didn’t run away. “Well,” the trainer said, “when they are very young and much smaller we use the same size rope to tie them and, at that age, it’s enough to hold them. As they grow up, they believe they cannot break away. They believe the rope can still hold them, so they never try to break free.”

The man was surprised. These animals could at any time break free from their ropes but because they believed they couldn’t, they were stuck(困在) right where they were.

Like the elephants, how many of us go through life hanging onto a belief that we cannot do something, simply because we failed at it once before?

In December 1903, New York Times questioned the intelligence of the Wright brothers efforts to invent a machine that would fly. But one week later, at Kitty Hawk, the Wright Brothers took their famous flight.

Albert Einstein did not speak until he was four and did not read until he was seven. His teachers and even his parents thought he was very slow. And while he may have been a 'slow starter', I'm sure you'd agree that he was very successful in the end.

Failure is part of learning; we should never give up the struggle in life.

24、For 99% of human history, people took their food from the world around them. They ate all that they could find, and then moved on. Then about 10,000 years ago, or for 1% of human history, people learned to farm the land.

The kind of food we eat depends on which part of the world we live in, or which part of our country we live in. For example, in the south of China they eat rice, but in the north they eat noodles. In European countries near the sea, people eat a lot of fishes. In central (中部) Europe, away from the sea, people don’t eat so much fish, they eat more meat. In Germany and Poland there are hundreds of different kinds of sausages.

In North America, Australia, and Europe, people eat with knives and forks. In China, people eat with chopsticks. In parts of India and the Middle East people use their fingers and bread to pick up food.

Nowadays it is possible to transport (运输) food easily from one part of the world to the other. We can eat what we like, when we like, at any time of the year. In Britain, bananas come from Africa; rice comes from India or the USA; strawberries come from Chile or Spain. Food is very big business. But people in poor countries are still hungry, and people in rich countries eat too much.
