      Twenty years ago,kids in school had never heard of the Internet.  Now, 1      1      you can't find a
single person in your school who hasn't at least heard of it.  In fact,many of us use it on a      2      basis
and even have access to it from our homes! The "net" in "intemet" should     3     network. A network is
two or more computers connected together so that information can.be shared,or sent from tree computer
to another.  The Intemet is a vast    4      for all types of infor- mation. You may enjoy using it to do
research for a school project,downloading your favorite songs or communicating with friends and family.
Information is accessed through web pages that companies,organizations and individuals create and post.
  It's kind of like a giant bulletin board that the whole world uses ! But since anyone can put anything on
the Internet,you also have to be careful and use your best     5     and a little common sense.
      Just because you read something on a piece of paper someone sticks on a bulletin board,it doesn't     6      it's good information,or even     7   . So you have to be sure that whoever posted the
information knows what they're talking about,    8    if you're doing research! But what if you're just
e-mailing people? You still have to be very careful. If you've never met the person that you're
communicating with online,you could be on dangerous ground ! You should never give out any     9 
   information to someone you don't know,not even your name! And just like you can't believe the
information on every website out there,you can't rely on what strangers you "meet" on the Intemet tell you
either. Just as you could     10     things about yourself to tell someone,someone else could do the same
to you!

                                                       Get Independence by Ourselves
     The passage is mainly about a father's accompanying his son studying at his university. What makes us
puzzled is that his son is a postgraduate. In most people's opinion, a university student is old e nough to look
after himself.
     I can't understand the father at all. And I am against his idea and action because his son is a postgraduate
and old enough to deal with all the difficulties by himself. All parents should allow their children to face the
reality and win the independence.
      I think independence is important for children. After all, we all will grow up and face the reality by
ourselves. Life is really tough and we will face all kinds of difficulties. We must be independent to solve the
problems. So we should develop our independence from young. After all parents can't accompany us all the
time.
      Certainly all children are facing problems and all parents would like to do all for them. But I think children
should get their inde pendence by themselves and only in this way can they face the real- ity on their own.
     Reading is very important to help you learn English. To learn as much as you can from reading, you need to
read different kinds of English. This book provides not only different kinds of English but also a good way to
check your reading ability.
     There are four parts in the book:
     Part 1 is Messages: In this part somebody wants to send infor mation in writing to somebody else.
     There is a test on timetables and a test on text messages.
     Part 2 is People: In this part all the tests are about people. For example, there is an informal letter between
friends. There is formal (正式的) English in biography (传记). There is a job application as a model to help
with your writing, as well as testing your reading.
     Part 3 is Places: In this part, too, many different kinds of Eng- lish are shown, some informal and some
formal. There is the informal English of a holiday postcard. There is also the formal English in a letter of
complaint.
      Part 4 is Things: You will find some descriptive writing in this part. There are descriptions of clothes and
of a computer.
     You can do these tests in any order you like, or you can do all the tests with a formal or informal text.
     I enjoyed writing this book and I hope you enjoy using it.
