In the early 1990s, the word "Internet" was strange to most people. But today, Internet has become a useful tool for people all over the world. Maybe Internet has been the greatest invention in the field of communication in the history of mankind(人类).
Communicating with others on the Internet is much faster. We can chat with a person who is sitting in the other part of the world. We can e-mail our friends and they can read the e-mails within a minute.
Giving all kinds of information is probably the biggest advantage of the Internet. We can use search engines to find the information we need. Just type in a keyword or keywords and the search engine will give us a list of suitable websites to look at.
We can enjoy a lot on the Internet by downloading games, visiting chat rooms or surfing(浏览) websites. There are some games for fr6e. We can meet new and interesting people in the chat now. We can also listen to music and see films.
Now, there is a lot of service on the Internet such as online banking, job finding and ticket buying. We can also do shopping and find nearly all kinds of goods. Sometimes we can find something that is quite good but very cheap.
Today most countries have at least one airline that flies to foreign countries and one airline that flies inside the country. Some countries have several of each.
The world's first passenger airline was called the St. Petersburg Tampa Airboat Line. This St. Petersburg was in Florida in the USA, and the airline took passengers on a 20-mile flight across Tampa Bay. It operated for only four months from January 1914.
The first European airline flew every day from Berlin to Weimar called Deutsche Lutt-Reederei (DLR). It started to operate on 6 February 1919. At first it carried only mail and newspapers, but before long it took passengers as well. The planes were open to the air so passengers had to wear special clothing and shoes to protect them from the wind, rain and cold.
In March 1919 the first international airline began to operate. Lignes Aeriennes Farman flew once a week between Paris and Brussels. The journey took two hours and 50 minutes. Later that year, an English airline, Air Transport and Travel, flew every day from London to Paris.
Although the first passenger flights took place in the USA, the development of air travel in America was strangely slow; it was not until 1926 that there were any regular passenger services there. It was not until 1939 that the first service across the North Atlantic began to operate. This was a service by the Pan American Boeing 314 flying boat, Yankee Clipper, which took 18 hours and 42 minutes to cover the journey between Newfoundland in North America and Southampton in England. The journey now takes about four hours by Boeing 777 and half that by Concorde.
Today for many people air travel is as much part of their lives as traveling by boat, car or train. Although it has not seriously affected travel by car or train, it has caused many shipping lines to stop carrying passengers, as most people now prefer to make long journeys by air rather than by sea.
Technology is an important part of life. With it we can do many things easily and quickly. It can help us in many ways. Man used to cut down trees with hand saw(锯). But now we can cut them down in a few minutes by using electric saw. In the past, if we had something important to tell our friends, we had to go to his or her house to tell them. Nowadays (现今，时下), we can give him or her a telephone call using the telephone or mobile phone. It is more convenient (方便的) and quickly. Many years ago people had to get the information they wanted by looking through a lot of books. In this way, they could become tried easily and they usually wasted too much time. Today, we can use the computer to help us . If we search the Internet, we can get all the things we want. Everything will become a piece of cake.
I believe that with the development of technology, our life will become better and better.

Farming in the USA today is very different from that 100 years ago. In those days, farmers did not have many machines to help them. They had animals. This meant that farms were smaller than they are now. Farmers also worked in a different way in the past. In those days, farmers grew fruits and vegetables and kept cows, pigs and chickens to feed their families.
Farmers have a very special life in many ways. First of all, they can't leave the job at the end of the day. They live on the farm and there is always work to do. Second, a lot of farm work is outdoors, so the weather is very important for farmers. A lot of bad weather means farmers will lose money. Finally, farmers work with plants and animals. They understand nature better than other people do.
Spring is a time for planting. Farmers are busy getting the fields ready and then planting the seeds(种子). In summer, farmers must take good care of the plants. Some may need water.
