For most people, the word "fashion" means "clothes". But people ask question, "What clothes are
fashion?" And they use the adjective (形容词) "fashionable" in the same way: "she was wearing a fashionable
coat." "His shirt was really a fashionable color."
But of course there are fashions in many things, not only in clothes. There are fashions in holidays,
in restaurants, in films and books. There are even fashions in school subjects, jobs and in languages.
Fashions change as time goes. If you look at pictures of people or things from the past, you will feel
that fashions have always changed. An English house of 1750 was different from one of 1650. A
fashionable man in 1780 looked very different from his grandson in 1860.
Today fashions change very quickly. Some of this is natural (自然的). We hear about things much more
quickly than in the past. Newspapers, radios, telephones and television send information from one country
to another in a few hours.

the Internet?
Many people are surprised when they find that the Internet was set up in the 1960s. At that time,
computers were large and expensive. Computer networks (网络) didn"t work well. If one computer in the
network broke down, then the whole network stopped. So a new network system had to be set up. It should
be good enough to be used by many different computers. If part of the network was not working, information
could be sent through another part. In this way computer network system would keep on working all the time. At first the Internet was only used by the government, but, in the early 1970s, universities, hospitals and
banks were allowed to use it too. However, computers were still very expensive and the Internet was difficult
to use. By the start of the 1990s, computers became cheaper and easier to use. Scientists had also developed
software that made "surfing" (浏览) the Internet more convenient.
Today it is easy to get on-line (上网) and it is said that millions of people use the Internet everyday. Sending e-mail is more and more popular among students.
The Internet has now become one of the most important parts of people"s life.

there is another kind of language you need to know- the language of the body.
