How useful is the Internet as a way of finding out the news?

It's extremely practical. There are thousands of websites to read the news from Actually each newspaper has created its own webpage to offer the latest news to their readers. They refresh the pages every minute or so. Personally, I like to read the news or Yahoo．com because it's a simple website to use, and I also get to check my email inbox or the same website. My father used to get up and go out every morning to buy the newspaper but since we now have unlimited Internet at home, he turns on his computer every morning and every night after work. It's convenient for the whole family, not only children.

   How do you feel about buying things on the Internet?
   

It's extremely convenient to buy online. I often visit websites like E-Bay and Taoba ( to look for books or other products. They offer very competitive prices, compared to street retail(=stores on the street), and I have so many different choices．In addition, it's very easy to use, and I can do it while watching TV or drinking a cup of tea at home. It's so( relaxing. Some people worry about it being unsafe, but I have bought a lot of stuff and have never been cheated. As long as the website is famous, it is pretty reliable.

Well, students have access to unlimited resources and information. They can literally find info on everything. However, students also need to go through all the articles they find because a lot of them are not relevant（＝irrelevant) to their assignments. But I guess this is why we call it
"searching the web."
