participants use the Internet for news-often entertainment-related-or for online games. About half download

than before to communicate with others who have the same professions, hobbies and political interests. Online
purchases still remain unpopular in China. Three-quarters of users surveyed have never bought anything over
the Intemet, and only 10 percent make purchases even once a month. Among those who do buy online, most
pay for entertainment while others buy phone cards, or computer hardware or software.
"Many people don"t trust the quality of goods bought online," Guo said Wednesday. "If they buy it in a store
and don"t like it, they can easily bring it back."
The survey was done in five major cities: Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, Chengdu and Changsha. Results do
not necessarily project countrywide because Internet use in rural areas is lower than in cities. Guo describes the
typical netizen in the five cities surveyed as young, male, richer and more highly educated. Males make up two-
thirds of the Internet community, and more than 80 percent of users are under 24. Among people ages 25 to 29,
60 percent to 80 percent go online. China has more than 100 million people online, second in the world to the
United States.

D. likes the games sites
B. people haven"t computers

seeing some new kinds of addictions. Some people are compulsive (难以自制的) shoppers. Others find it
impossible to pull themselves away from their work. Still others spend countless hours watching TV or
playing computer games.
[2] Over the years, shopping has become a very common activity. Many people enjoy going to malls or
stores more and more every day, but it"s more than a common hobby for some of them. They have turned
into shopaholics. They are people who simply enjoy shopping and walking around spending money without

work and goes shopping with her. "Most people don"t seem to mind Allen," says Brigitte, who thinks he is
wonderful. "He is my fourth child," she says. She may think of him and treat him that way, buying his food,
paying his health bills and his taxes, but in fact Allen is a dog.
Brigitle and Allen live in Sweden, a country where everyone is expected to lead an orderly life according
to rules laid down by the government, which also provides a high level of care for its people. This level of
care costs money.
People in Sweden pay taxes on everything, so they aren"t surprised to find that owning a dog means more
taxes. Some people are paying as much as 500 Sweden kronor (克朗) in taxes a year for the right to keep
their dogs, money that is spent by the government on dog hospitals and sometimes medical treatment for a
dog that falls ill. However, most such treatment is expensive, so owners often decide to pay health and even
life insurance (保险) for their dogs.
In Sweden dog owners must pay for any damage their dogs do. A Swedish kennel (宠物园) club official
explains what this means: if your dog runs out on the road and gets hit by a passing car, you, as the owner,
have to pay for any damage done to the car, even if your dog has been killed in the accident.
B. he is her child
C. he follows her everywhere
D. he often falls ill
B. pay for damage done by dogs
C. provide medical care for dogs
D. buy insurance for dog owners
B. keeping dogs means asking for trouble
C. many car accidents are caused by dogs
D. people should pay a lot for their dogs
B. The owner of the dog.
C. The insurance company.
D. The government.
B. Allen.
C. Anderson.
D. Secretary
Time management is important in our daily life. There never seems to be enough hours in the day to
accomplish all you need to do. Here are some tips that might be of some help to you.
1. Set up a plan. Go for a week at a time,and decide the most important ones. Include things you want
to accomplish. Focus mostly on the things that are important to you.
2. Control your stress. No matter what kind of pressure mounts on you.try to keep cool. Stressing out
can lead to an early break-down,which is definitely counter-productive when you have a list of things to do.
It"s easier to take a 10-minute break and cool off than to work all week with stress.
3. Shut your door. When working under a schedule, perform your important tasks with your door shut
to get them done. This will ensure a better quality time to get what needs to be done done.
4. Focus on one thing at a time. Forget trying to multi-task! You will lose concentration, and it will take
you longer to accomplish what you set out to do.
5. Just say "no". If you are constantly interrupted, and you really don"t have the time to help out, just say
"no". You"re only one person, and you can"t save the world by yourself!
6. Stop wasting time on the phone. While talking on the phone, keep your conversations short, and to the
point and you"ll waste much less time.
7. Be realistic. You can only do what you can do. Don"t set out to accomplish the impossible. Do your
best, but keep realistic expectations of yourself.
8. Relax. The most important thing is to remember to take time to relax, and regroup. You need a break
every now and then to keep working efficiently. Even if it"s a 10-minute walk, get away from your list and
get refreshed.
As families today get busier and busier, it"s important to your own mental health to keep things on track.
Don"t delay; get your life in order now.
