In the early 1990s,the

word” Internet”

was strange

to most people. But

today, Internet has become a

the

world.

Maybe

Internet

has

been

the

greatest invention in the field of

communication in the history of mankind

（人类）

Communicating

with others on the Internet

is much faster. We can chat

with a person who is sitting in the other

part of the world. We can e-mail our friends and they can read the e-mails

within a minute.

Giving all kinds of information

is probably the biggest advantage of the

Internet. We can use search engines to

find the information we need. Just type in a keyword or keywords and the

search engine will give us a list of

suitable websites to look at.

We can enjoy a

lot on the Internet by downloading

games, visiting chat

rooms or surfing

（浏览）

websites. There

are some games for free. We can meet new and interesting people in the

chat now. We can also listen to music

and see films.

Now ,there is a lot of service on the Internet such as online banking

,job

finding and ticket buying. We can

also do shopping and find nearly all kinds of goods. Sometimes we can

find something that is quite good but

very cheap.

Y

ou want to know about my staying in

America, right? Well, to tell you

the truth, it is really an eye-opening

experience study here.

In

China,

I

had

English

classes

five

times

a

week

since

fifth

grade.

However, I didn‟t know how different

textbook

English

could

be

from

everyday

English

until

I

came

to

Hotchkiss School, Conmecticut.

When I first studied English, I was told to say, “I am fine.” when people

say “How are you ?”But in the

US,I found that people say, “I am good.” or “I am tired.”

One day ,someone greeted me

with “What‟s up ?”It ,made me confused. I

thought for a moment and then smiled

because I didn‟t know what to say.

Since

then,

I

have

discovered

more

and

more

differences

between

Chinese and US cultures.

To my surprise, US girls spend a lot of time in the burning sun to get a tan.

However ,in China ,girls try

every possible way to get their skin paler, or “whiter.”

I

also

surprised

by

how

hard-working

.US

students

are

.In

China,

schoolwork is almost everything ,so we study

hard and that‟ it. But here,a

“good” student gets good grades, does a lot

for the public and plays sports or

music.

The

kids

here

are

so

talented

,I

am

starting

to

be sorry

that

I

gave

up

playing the piano at an early age and

that I have never thought about sports.

ing
