Taobao, China’s largest online shopping website, has become an important part of Wang Lin’s life. She spends lots of money on Taobao.

A large number of Chinese Internet users like Wang have found the joy of online shopping. Most online shoppers are students and young workers. More women shop online than men. Clothes and household products (家用产品) are the most popular online.

It was reported that more than 250 billion (十亿) yuan was spent on online shopping last year, 80% through Taobao.

Taobao means “1ooking for treasure (珍宝)” in Chinese. People can find almost everything they need on Taobao, from clothes to books, from candies to DVD players.

“You may question the security (安全) of online shopping.” Wang Lin said. “It’s very safe and convenient (便利的). Unless you receive the products from the sellers and are satisfied with them, the shop owners will not get the money. You can also get your money back if you want to return the products.”

Reading books is a good hobby for all kinds of reasons. First, reading books is fun. You can always keep yourself pleased if you like reading. This is especially useful when the weather is bad. It is a relaxing hobby, too. You can really become lost in a book.

Next, you can read a book almost anywhere: in a car, in a waiting room, on a plane, in bed-- even in a bath. All you need is a book. Reading is a convenient (方便的) hobby as it is easy to stop and then start again.

Another good reason for reading books is that it is useful. If you keep reading as a hobby, you will get better and better at it. This means that you will read faster and will become better at understanding what you read. As your reading improves, you will probably find you’re your schoolwork becomes much easier. Many school subjects depend on (依靠) good reading and, as you read, you will learn more and more.

Some people say that reading is out of date. This is not true. You have to be able to read on the Internet. And the better you read, the better your computer skills will be. Reading is hardly out of date !

Good readers are most likely to be good writers, too. They are usually good at spelling as well, and have more things to write about.

Reading books is a wonderful hobby, one of the best. What other hobbies could be more useful or more enjoyable?

Today it is found that school students hardly pay much attention to sports. Is it because they aren't interested in sports? No. They often say they have other more important things to do.

What are these important things? Examinations! Students have to spend much time on all kinds of examinations at school. So many of them almost become bookworms (书呆子), Books stop them from doing sports. Because of the pressure from their parents and teachers, the students have to work harder and spend most of their time on books.

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.
