Unit 10 Money Period One

Online Shopping

Shopping on the Internet is being more and more popular.Why

do people use the Internet to shop? Some people say that it is

more convenient.They can just stay at home and shop for anything

that they want at any time，day or night.If you want to buy

something on the Internet，you need a credit card.You have to type your credit card number on the website and send it to the store over Internet.

With the development of the Internet and the popularization of computers，shopping on the Internet has become a common place in our life.Here consumers can buy almost everything they need.

Shopping on the Internet has a lot of advantages，of which the most important is perhaps its convenience.People don’t have to waste a lot of their energy and precious time to go from one shop to another to choose the commodities they like.This is especially convenient to the old，the sick and the busy people who can not go to the shops in person.The goods come in all shapes，sizes and colors on the Internet.All they need to do is to sit in front of their computers and click the mice.The commodities they order will be delivered to them promptly.

However，shopping on the Internet also has its disadvantages.The first disadvantage is that the consumers can’t see the goods.Sometimes，the real goods may not be the same as what they have seen on the computer.The second disadvantage is that some shops on the Internet are not registered.They will never deliver anything to you after they get the money from you.Once cheated，you will find that you have nowhere to go to complain.
