WHO IS REALLY ON THE INTERNET?

One of the great things about the Internet, as well as one of its biggest problems, is
that people are basically anonymous on it. In Internet chat rooms and web cafés, people
can use a different name and even create an entirely different identity if they want to.
In some ways, this is a good thing. For many people, it gives them the chance to
do things that they could never do in real life. For example, a person might be very shy in
real life, but that same person may find the courage to make friends on the Internet
because it feels safer. In addition, people in some countries are not free to express their
opinions, especially if they don‟t like the government. By using a different identity on the
Internet, they can express their opinions without worrying about getting in trouble.
That same freedom to be “another person” on the Internet, however, causes many
problems as well. The major problem is Internet fraud. Many dishonest people use the
Internet to pretend to be a different person. Then they trick a person into trusting them in
some way and take their money. In one case, two Japanese men lied to Filipinos who
wanted to travel to Japan. The two Japanese men told them that they could help them get
visas to Japan for a small price (about $ 400 per person). The two Japanese men took
thousands of dollars from hopeful Filipinos, but none of the people ever got their visas.
The number of these kinds of crime is quickly rising. Last year, Internet criminals stole
over $ 350 million from trusting people. When you consider that only $ 57 million was
stolen in bank robberies in all of Europe, it is easy to see that Internet crime is a serious
problem.

1. The word 'anonymous' in bold in paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to________.

A. nameless B. dishonest C. trusting D. criminal

2. According to paragraph 2 all of the following are true of the Internet EXCEPT_________.

A. it allows people to safely oppose their government.

B. it makes it easier for people to express themselves

C. its get people in trouble

D. it helps shy people make friends

3. They word 'they' in bold in paragraph 2 refers to__________.

A. people B. countries C. opinions D. friends

4. The author mentions two Japanese men in oder to__________.

A. suggest that there is a lot of Internet crime in Japan.

B. show that getting a visa is very difficult in Japan.

C. show that you shouldn't trust anyone on the Internet.

D. give an example of fraud on the Internet.

5. Why does the author mention bank robberies?

A. To show that there is more money in Internet crime than in robbing banks.

B. To suggest that Internet crime is easier than robbing banks.

C. To show that Internet crime is much more common than other types of crime.

D. To show that banks are safe than the Internet.

Children love to play computer games. Some people say that many of them are addicted to games. If you become addicting, all you can think about is computer games and you cannot spend a day without playing. Of course, playing games on the computer is the great way to spending time and have fun. But there are also bad sides to it as well.

First of all, you do not get enough exercise because you do not have to move your body much when play games. Second, your eyesight becomes badly because your eyes are fixed on the computer screen for to long. This is why not it is not hard to find children wearing glasses around theses days. Third you do not get to spend much time with your family because are spending all time of your time in front of the computer.

Playing computer games is not such as bad thing. But too much playing can cause problems. How much hours do you spend in front of the computer? Why not take this opportunity to cut down on the computer games?
