Perhaps you have heard a lot about the Internet, but what is it?
The Internet is many different networks around the world. A network is a group of computers put together. These networks joined together are called the Internet.
Maybe that doesn't sound interesting. But when we've joined the Internet, there are lots of things we can do. We can find lots of interesting information on the World Wide Web
（www). We can use the Internet instead of a library to find all kinds of information for our homework. We can find information about our favourite sports or film stars and do shopping on the Internet. We can also send messages to other people by e-mail. It is much cheaper and quicker than calling our friends or sending a letter.Thanks to the Internet, the world is becoming smaller and smaller. People can now work at home with a computer in front of them, getting and sending the information they need. They can buy or sell whatever they want by the Internet. But do you know 98% of the information is in English? So what will English be like tomorrow?

A lot of inventions are useful to people's life. In 1884, George Eastman invented a kind of film
（膠卷）that fit into a small camera（照相機）. Because the new film was easy to use, many people began to buy cameras. When they had used up their film, people returned their cameras to the factory. There, the film was developed, and pictures were printed. Then more film was put into the cameras, which were sent back to the owners, along with their pictures.
Eastman's camera made it easy to take pictures. Today's cameras are even easier to use, and people can put in their own film.

In 1826, a Frenchman named Niepce needed pictures for his business. But he was not good at drawing. So he invented a very simple
（簡單的）camera. He put it in a window of his house and took a picture of his garden. That was the first photo.
In 1837, Daguerre, another Frenchman, took a picture of his office. He used a new kind of camera and a different way. In his pictures, you could see everything very clearly.
Soon, other people began to use Daguerre's way. They took photos of famous buildings, cities and mountains.
In about 1840, the way became better. They could take pictures of people and moving things. Butthe way was not simple. They had to carry lots of film and equipment
（設(shè)備）.Matthew Brady was one well-known American photographer
（攝影師）. He took many photos of people. The photos were unusual because they were very life-like.Brady was also the first person to take pictures of a war
（戰(zhàn)爭）. His 1862 Civil War pictures showed dead soldiers and broken cities. They made the war seem more real and more terrible.In the 1880s, new inventions began to change photography. Photographers could buy film ready-made in rolls
（卷曲）. So they did not have to make the film themselves. They could bring it back to their offices and develop it later. They did not have to carry lots of equipment. And the invention of the small hand-held camera made photography less expensive.With the small camera, anyone could be a photographer. They took pictures of their families, friends and favourite places. They called these pictures
“fast-shots”. Photos became very popular in newspapers in the 1890s. Soon magazines and books also used photos. They were much more real than drawing.Photography also turned into a form

A mobile phone
（手機）is in fact a small radio. A radio sends a person's voice over a long way to another radio. A voice that is sent by radio is called a signal（信號）. A radio signal travels very quickly.
Only a few years ago, mobile phones were very large. They needed large batteries
（電池）. They had to be powerful（功率高）to send their signal to faraway places. This was because most cities had only one antenna tower（中繼站）for mobile phones.Today's mobile phones are small and easy to use. Now most cities have a lot of antenna towers, not just one. This means that each mobile phone doesn't have to send its signal far away, so they don't need to be so powerful. Mobile phones today use small batteries. A large city, where lots of mobile phones are used, can have hundreds of towers.
Do you know what use a mobile phone has? Yes, you can use it to do a lot of things.
Call your friends and family from almost anywhere.
Call the police immediately if there is an accident in the street.
Send or receive e-mail.
Get information from the Internet.
Send and receive messages.
Sending short written messages is a popular way to use your mobile phone. Many people use short forms of words, so the messages are quick to write and read. Can you guess what these messages mean? Try reading them out. What do you hear?

Hundreds of years ago, news was carried from place to place by people on foot or by horse. It took days, weeks and sometimes months for people to receive news. Now it is possible to send words and pictures around the world in seconds
（秒）. Billions of people learn about news stories of their own country and all over the world every day, either by watching TV or reading newspapers.Newspapers have been an important part of everyday life since the 18th century. Many countries have hundreds of different newspapers. How do newspaper editors
（編輯）decide which news stories to print? Why do they print some stories and not others? What makes a good newspaper story?Firstly, it is important to report new stories. TV stations can report news much faster than newspapers. Yet, newspapers give more about the same story. They may also look at the story in another way, or they may print completely
（完全地）different stories to those on TV.Secondly, a news story has to be interesting and unusual. People don't want to read stories about everyday life. As a result, many stories are about some kind of danger and seem to be
“bad”news. For example, newspapers never print stories about planes landing safely, instead they print stories about plane accidents.Another factor
（因素）is also very important in many news stories. Many people are interested in news in foreign countries, but more prefer to read stories about people, places and events（事件）in their own country.
