Surfing the Internet can help open students' eyes and get more knowledge. As a teacher, I encourage my students to use the Internet. In class those students who surf the Internet understand lessons better than the others. Besides, people can use the Internet to write letters or stories and send emails. Many students communicate with their friends online. You can also make friends by chatting on QQ. It is cheaper than calling somebody far away and it's also much quicker. Nearly one third of young people surf the Internet for fun. They like to listen to music, watch films, and go to their favourite stars' websites.

英语的发展变化

How do we know what's right or wrong in English Languages such as French and Spanish each has an official(官方的)organization that tells you what's correct. But there is nothing like that in English. So what can we do

There is, of course, Standard English. This is the kind of English you read in newspapers or in formal letters. It is also the English you learn at school or in textbooks.

However, Standard English is not official English. And unbelievably, linguists(语言学家)think Standard English is on the same level as all other types of English such as Cockney English，Yorkshire English, South African English, Australian English, Singaporean English... And according to linguists, there is no such thing as Standard Spoken English.

English is changing all the time. Every year, new words appear and others disappear. Words change too. For example, for many years, the Latin word "agendum" was the accepted singular form and "agenda" was the plural form. However, these days, very few people use the Latin-sounding "agendum"，with "agenda" being the accepted singular form, and "agendas" the plural.

Newspapers each has their own style when they write certain things. For example,

The Guardian puts dates like "21 July 2011" (with the day first，followed by the month and no commas).However, the news agency Reuters writes them like this "July 21，2011" (with the month first，and a comma(逗号)between the day and the year). Other newspapers have different ways of doing it too. So，as you can see, there's no one "correct" way-there's a variety of ways and each one is acceptable.

Next time someone tells you that something is wrong, tell them that it isn't wrong, it is just English.

1. According to passage two, how many ways can you read or learn Standard English(no more than four words)

2. What is the plural form of the Latin word "agendum" in the past(no more than four words)

3. How does the news agency Reuters write "2016年1月20日"( no more than four words)

4. According to passage one, what languages have official organizations that tell you what is correct(no more than four words)

5. What should you do when you face the changes of English

肢体语言

Body language is one of the most powerful means of communication, often even more powerful than spoken language. People around the world show all kinds of feelings, wishes and attitudes that they might never speak aloud. It is possible to read others around us, even if they do not want us to catch their unspoken communication. Of course, body language can be misread, but many gestures and actions are common.

The most common facial expression is, of course, the

smile-its function is to show happiness and put people at ease.

It does not always mean that we are truly happy, however.

Smiles around the world can be false, hiding other feelings

like anger, fear or worry. There are unhappy smiles, such as

when someone loses face and smiles to hide it. However,

the general purpose of smiling is to show good feelings.

From the time we are babies, we show unhappiness or anger by frowning(皱眉头).In most places around the world, frowning and turning one's back to someone shows anger. Making a fist(拳头)and shaking it almost always means that someone is angry.

How about showing that I am bored Looking away from people or yawning will，in most cases, make me appear to be uninterested. However, if I turn toward and look at someone or something, people from almost every culture will think that I am interested.

Being respectful to people is subjective, based on each culture, but in general it is probably not a good idea to give a hug to boss or teacher. In almost every
