How much do you know about it？ What is the Internet？ The Internet is a large， world-wide collection of computer networks（网络）. A network is a small group of computers that are put together. The Internet is many different kinds of networks from all over the world. These networks are called the Internet. If you have learned to use the Internet， you can have a lot of interest in the World Wide Web（网）. What is the World Wide Web？ The World Wide Web has been the most popular development of the Internet. The Web is like a big electronic（电子的） book with millions of pages. These pages are called homepages. You can find information about almost anything in the world on these pages. For example， you can use the Internet instead of a library to find information for your homework. You can also find information about your favourite sport or film star. You can talk to your friends on the pages. You can even do some shopping on the pages. Most pages have words， pictures and even sound or music. What is email？ Electronic mail （email） is a way of sending messages to other people. It’s much quicker and cheaper than sending a letter. If you want to use email， you must have an email address. This address must have letters and dots（点） and an “@” （means “at”）. Write a message， type a person’s email address， and then send the message across the Internet. People don’t need to use stamps or envelopes or go to the post office because of the invention of the Internet. Quick， easy and interesting—that’s the Internet. （　　）1. The Internet is  　　　　.

Put them together to build a kite. A kite connects you to the past. No one knows who flew the first kite. It was probably someone in China or perhaps Indonesia. Indonesian fishermen hung fishhooks on kites and sent them out to sea to catch fish. 2，000 years ago， Chinese farmers flew kites to welcome New Year and hope for good luck. In China， people also used kites during wartime. One Chinese story tells how soldiers put noise makers on kites and flew them at night over the enemy camp. The enemies were frightened by the noise and ran away. About 1，300 years ago， Chinese travellers took kites to Japan. Soon kites filled the skies there. Kites reached Thailand about 700 years ago. During floods， Thai farmers flew kites over their fields. They hoped the kites would drive away the clouds and stop the rain. Over time， kites flew their way out of Asia. Today， kites are a passion all over the world. Kite fans meet at festivals in many parts of the world and have great fun. Over the years， kites have also helped people understand the natural world. In 1749， for example， thermometers were tied to kites to measure temperatures. In 1906， cameras hanging from kites took pictures of San Francisco， California after an earthquake. The photos helped people plan what to do. Kites also helped inventors find out how to make airplanes. The Wright brothers studied how kites flew， which helped them make the first successful airplane. Since the ancient Chinese first set their kites into the air， people have loved flying kites. Kites give us ways to celebrate， relax and explore. So go to fly a kite！ Enjoy the feeling of wonder that kite flyers have felt for centuries. （　　）6. According to the passage， in which countries were kites used to make good wishes？ A. China and Japan.
