The use of computer and the internet allows people to work at home instead of traveling to work. For example, a journalist who lives in a remote part of the world still gets in his articles on time for the next day’s newspapers. The internet allows businesses to communicate with customers and workers in any parts of the world for the cost of a local telephone call . This means it’s inexpensive to communicate . Email allows users to send documents, pictures and other data from one part of the world to another in at least 5 minutes. The internet is providing a lot of new business opportunities. Some businesses are advertising their products on the internet. People can use the internet to do shopping. This saves a lot of time. It is possible to use the internet for education- students may connect with their teachers from home to send or receive e. mail or talk their problems through ‘ on – line’ rather than attend a class. 1 the internet is ................................ to communicate with people around the world a a cheap way b an expensive way c an inconvenient way d a difficult way 2 through the internet , businesses can............................................. a buy goods from each other b advertise and sell their products c send their products to customer d all are correct 3 it takes ............................ to do the shopping to the internet a a lot of time b a little time c less time d more time 4 which of the fowllowing is true ? a thanks to the internet , people do not need to go to work b e-mail can be used to advertise new products c the internet can be used for education d students nowdays spend more time going on line than attending school

Will people still read books 100 years from now? A few years ago, many people would have said no. It seemed likely that computers and the Internet would replace books. Now, however, most experts think that books are here to stay.

There are a number of reasons why computers will not replace books entirely. One reason is that books on paper are much cheaper than computers. And books do not need a power source. You can read a book for as long as you want and wherever you want. You never have to worry about losing power. Also, many people feel more comfortable reading woeds in a book than reading woeds on a computer screen because it is less tiring to the eyes.

Will books in the future be exactly the same as the books you can buy today? The answer to that question is no. In the future, you may only need to buy one book. With this one book, you will be able to read novels, plays, and newspapers. It will look like today's books, but it will be electronic.

One of the people working on the book of the future is Professor joseph Jacobson from Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Professor Jacobson's electronic book will have a small button on the side.

Making a film takes a long time and is very hard work. Writing the story for the film may take many weeks.
Filming the story, or shooting the film, often takes at least six months. Actors and cameramen work from very
early in the morning until late at night. Each scene has to be acted and re-acted, filmed and re-filmed, until it is
just fine. Sometimes the same scene has to be acted many times.
The film studio is like a large factory, and the indoor stages are very big indeed. Scenery of all kinds is made
in the studio. Churches, houses, and forests are all built of wood and cardboard. Several hundred people work

should act.
