The Internet: a world without frontiers
The Internet has the power to connect people across the world to a single shared community. Billions of people in different parts of the world have joined it already, and obviously①many more will follow. Even in the countryside, the Internet enables people to② reach beyond their villages and get in touch with③the outside world. We can achieve almost anything online—with access④to the Internet come some truly life-changing advantages.
One of the greatest advantages of the Internet lies in⑤the quick and easy access to a huge amount of⑥information. To a certain extent⑦, the world's knowledge is all at our fingertips⑧. With the click⑨of a mouse or the touch of a button⑩,it is possible to find out almost anything we care to know,from recipes to travel packages,from military affairs⑪to learning resources. In the time it takes to find one book in the library,we can use a search engine to bring up⑫ millions of results. No wonder⑬ the Internet has now become the first place that the majority⑭ of people turn to for information.
本句是一个复合句,we care to know前省略了定语从句引导词that,句中it作形式主语,真正的主语是后面的to find out almost anything。
本句是一个复合句the time后面省略了定语从句引导词 that,因其在从句中作宾语,故可以省略。
本句是一个复合句,No wonder是It's no wonder that的省略形式,后面接的是主语从句,从句中that又引导一个定语从句,修饰 the first place。
The Internet has also made our lives unbelievably convenient,with all sorts of goods⑮and services provided by electronic commerce, more commonly known as e-commerce⑯. You can have food delivered⑰to you using food delivery apps and sites⑱. Gone are the days of searching shop after shop for the perfect pair of boots⑲—you can compare styles and prices quickly and easily in the comfort of your living room. Why wait hopelessly for a taxi in the cold rain? It is now simple and fast to order one with a taxi app. Sit back and relax indoors for a few warm minutes until the driver arrives. When you wish to go on holiday⑳ ,you can make all your travel arrangementsjust in front of the computer. Forgot to carry cash? There is no need to worry—you can pay for almost everything on your smartphone.
本句是简单句,句中含有with的复合结构。
本句是简单句,现在分词短语在句中作状语。
本句是简单句,句中表语位于句首,故本句用了完全倒装。
本句是复合句,句中when引导时间状语从句。
Above all else,the Internet helps us establishand maintain social ties. With all sorts of communication software, physical distance no longer gets in the way.No matter where we are,we are able to keep in contact withloved ones,find long-lost friends and discover whole new communities who share our hobbies.An instantmessage,a group chat,a video call,a commenton an update—there are endless ways to share our views or let someone know we care about them.
本句是复合句,句中no matter where引导让步状语从句。
However,while the Internet brings many valuable advantages,being connected has its problems.As withany great invention, we must be awareof these problems and be careful to use the Internet properly and responsibly. Only in this way can the Internet be a place of discovery,wonder and inspiration for everyone.It is truly a world without frontiers.

互联网:一个
没有国界的世界
互联网有能力将世界各地的人们连接到一个单一的共享社区。来自世界不同地区的数十亿的人已经加入到了这一行列,并且显然还有更多的人会跟着。即使在农村,互联网能够使人们到达自己的村庄以外的世界并与外界取得联系。在网上我们几乎什么都能做到——接入互联网(给我们)带来了优势,真正改变了我们的生活。
互联网的最大优势之一在于它快速、便捷的海量信息通道。在某种程度上,我们能随时了解全世界的知识,只要点击鼠标或按一下按钮,我们就可以找到我们想知道的几乎任何事情,从食谱到旅游套餐,从军事到学习资源。在图书馆找到一本书的时间,我们就可以搜索引擎调出几百万的结果了。难怪,互联网现在已经成为大多数人查找信息的首选途径。
通过电子商务(通常被称为电子商务)来提供各种商品和服务,互联网也使我们的生活变得令人难以置信的便捷。你可以利用食品派送应用程序和网站让人将食品送到你手上,一家店一家店寻找那双最合适的靴子的日子一去不复返了。你们可以舒舒服服地待在客厅里轻松快捷地比较款式和价格。为什么要在冰冷的雨中无望地等待一辆出租车呢?现在,在出租车应用程序上预约一辆已经很简单快捷了,在温暖的室内,坐好放松几分钟,司机就到了。当你想去度假的时候,你可以在电脑前把你所有的旅行安排都做好,忘带现金了?没有必要担心你可以在你的智能手机上支付几乎所有的费用。
最重要的是,互联网帮助我们建立和维护社会关系。有了各种各样的通信软件,现实距离已不再是阻碍了。无论我们身在何处,我们都能与爱的人保持联系,找到失散已久的朋友,并发现所有与我们有共同爱好的新群体。即时消息、群聊、视频通话、评论更新——有无数种方式可以让我们分享我们的看法,或者让别人知道我们关心他们。
然而,尽管互联网带来了许多宝贵的优势,连接也还是存在问题。就像任何伟大的发明一样,我们必须意识到这些问题,并恰当地、负责任地谨慎使用互联网。只有这样,互联网才能成为一个对每个人而言充满发现、奇迹和灵感的地方。它真的是一个没有国界的世界。

无论我们在哪里,我们都能与所爱的人保持联系,找到失散已久的朋友,并发现与我们有共同爱好的全新群体。
[句式解构] 本句中的 no matter where we are 是“no matter+特殊疑问词”引导让步状语从句。no matter where意为“无论在哪里”,相当于wherever。
no matter 常与 what/who/when/where/how/whether/which等连用,表示“无论……;不管……”。
no matter+what/who/where/when/how等,可以改为“what/who/where/when/how 等+-ever ”的形式。但是“no matter+疑问词”只能引导让步状语从句,而“wh-ever”不仅可以引导让步状语从句,还可以引导名词性从句。(1)No matter where/Wherever he goes, he always donates some money to the homeless.
无论他去哪里,他总是捐些钱给无家可归的人。

10.[教材P31] Only in this way can the Internet be a place of discovery, wonder and inspiration for everyone.
只有这样,互联网才能成为一个发现、惊奇和鼓舞每个人的地方。
[句式解构] 本句是简单句,“only+状语”位于句首,句子使用了部分倒装结构。
“only+状语(从句)”位于句首引起的部分倒装:
在英语中,“only+状语(从句)”位于句首时,句子(主句)要用部分倒装结构,即把句子(主句)中的助动词或情态动词提到主语前面。若原句(主句)中本身没有情态动词或助动词时,就根据谓语动词的时态,在句子(主句)主语前加do, does或did。only此时强调状语(从句)。具体用法如下:
①当only位于句首修饰副词、介词短语时,句子用部分倒装。
②当only 于句首,修饰状语从句表示强调时,主句要用部分倒装,而状语从句不用倒装。
(1)Only when we learn to exist in harmony with nature can we stop being a threat to wildlife and our planet.
只有当我们学会与自然和谐相处时,我们才不会再对野生动物地球构成威胁。
(2)Only by shouting was he able to make himself heard.
