Now net fiction(小说),also called computer fiction is popular in more than 80 countries.
To write computer fictions,the writers don't have to think about making any plot（情节）.Like reporters,they just go to a lot of places and collect materials：what most women want,their ideas about life and love,their happiness and sufferings and emotions.All these materials are fed into the computer to be processed(处理) and classified(分类).Then the writers just pick some materials from every part and fill in some details(细节) and a story is made up.
The first computer fiction was edited by 13 editors and published in Canada in 1976.It was a great success and 45 million copies were sold.Seeing this new process as profittaking(赢利的) a big American publishing company bought over the majority of the 13 Canadian editors and soon a series of （一系列）computer fictions were published in the United States.
All the computer fictions have very romantic(浪漫的) titles.The heroine(女主人公) is always about 20,while the hero is a 30 to 40 bachelor(单身的),handsome,with money and power.The hero and the heroine have a happy reunion(团聚) after all kinds of misunderstandings(误会).Computer fictions are enjoyed by most women readers of the west.But people doubt if they have any literary value(文学价值).

How to protect children Web fans from unsuitable material on-line while encouraging them to use the Internet has long been discussed in US.
For some parents the Internet can seem like a jungle, filled with danger for their children. But jungles contain wonders as well as hazards, with good guides, some education and a few precautions (预防措施), the wilds of the Internet can be safely navigated (航行). “Kid have to be on-line. If we tell our kids they can’t have access（进入）to the Internet we’re cutting them off from their future,” said an expert.
Most kids have started to learn to use search engines（搜索引擎）. Many of them are great for finding tons of interesting Internet sites, and they can also locate places where you might not want your kids to go. There are search engines designed just for kids. A certain software contains only sites that have been selected as safe. But the most popular that was to limit access would be to use what is known as a “content screener (过滤) .” But this can’t be wholly reliable, and the best thing parents can do is to talk to their kids and let them know what’s OK or not OK to see or do on the Internet. Another way is that mum or dad is nearby when the child is nearby when the child is surfing (浏览) the Internet.
A few other tips:
—Don’t put the PC in a child’s room but keep it in an area where mum or dad can kee p an eye on things. That also makes the Internet more of a family activity.
—Ask your child what he or she has been doing and about any friends they make on-line. —Tell your child not to give on-line strangers personal information, especially details like address and phone number.
—And tell your children never to talk to anyone they meet on-line over the phone, send them anything, accept anything from them or agree to meet with them unless you go along.

Dear Zhang Ning,
A discussion on how to review English for the college entrance exam will be held in the classroom of Class 1, Senior 3 at one o'clock tomorrow afternoon. Our English teacher Mr Wang will be invited to attend it. Two different opinions are to be mainly discussed:
1．The best way of learning English is to learn a large number of English words by heart and have a good command of the textbooks.
2．We can improve our English by doing a good number of NMET exercises. The textbooks are not important at all.
Please be there on time and give your opinions at the meeting.
Yours,
SunYue。
