Maybe that doesn't sound very interesting. But when you've joined to the Internet, there are lots and lots of things you can do. You can send Emails to your friends，and they can get them in a few seconds. You can also do with all kinds of information on the World Wide Web (WWW)．
There are many different kinds of computers now. They all can be joined to the Internet. Most of them are small machines sitting on people's desks at home, but there are still many others in schools，offices or large companies. These computers are owned by people and companies, but no one really owns the Internet itself.
There are lots of places for you to go into the Internet. For example, your school may have the Internet. You can use it during lessons or free time. Libraries often have computers joined to the Internet. You are welcome to use it at only time.
Thanks to the Internet, the world is becoming smaller and smaller. It is possible for you to work at home with a computer in front, getting and sending the information you need. You can buy or sell whatever you want by the Internet. But do you know 98% of the information on the Internet is in English? So what will English be like tomorrow?

When I was in elementary school, my teachers would always complain about my behavior in class. I had too much energy, so I was always talking with my classmates and sometimes I was not paying attention to the day's lesson, which my teachers hated to see. If you don't believe me,

teachers' words on my report cards every year can tell the story.
In my third year in elementary school, my teacher wrote, “Neil should tend to have a more serious attitude towards his schoolwork.” And in my fifth year, my teacher wrote, “Neil is not a bit strict with his work, his compositions, his notebook and so on. He has to be encouraged and urged by his parents and teachers.” And after only a few months, my sixthgrade teacher wrote, “Neil shouldn't be involved in social activities and should work harder.”
Later in that same school year, my sixthgrade teacher noticed that all my book reports were about the universe. Knowing that I had a lot of extra energy, she suggested that I should take advanced afterschool classes about the universe at the Hayden Planetarium.
From then on, my love of the universe became stronger and stronger. Instead of killing my time in class, I focused my extra energy on the subject that was going to become my career. Between the ages of eleven and seventeen, I took about eight courses on the universe. For each one, I received a certificate (结业证书) of completion, signed by both the instructor and the head of the Hayden Planetarium.
We still offer these classes today. And we still give out certificates of completion, which are signed by the instructor and, of course, the director—me. I am the director of the Hayden Planetarium and a research associate of the Department of Astrophysics at the American Museum of Natural History, both in New York City. Welcome to take extra classes here.
