The Benefit of Surfing the Internet
In this
generation, surfing the Internet has become our daily routine.
With the Net, we can do many things, such as shopping for clothes, making friends, and getting
information. We rely on the
Internet to solve problems in our daily life.
First, shopping online
for clothes is the thing I like to do the best on the Internet. There are many kinds of
clothes I can
choose by browsing the websites. I don’t have to go outsides to buy them,
which saves me a
lot of time. It is especially convenient when the weather is
not good.
Second, we can make
many kinds of friends on the Internet. We can know foreign friends who can tell us
about their experiences, cultures, work, and so on through the Internet. On
the other hand, we don’t have
to go long distance to meet
them; we can just sit in front of the computer and talk to them in English.
Therefore, making friends on the Internet can not only open our mind to the
world but also improve our
language skills.
Third, we can get lots
of information from the Internet. If we didn’t have the Internet, we would have
to
spend much time searching information. Nowadays, we only need to key words
into Google and we will
find a lot of relevant information. It is very
convenient and can save us much time. In addition, we can get
the news of
current events instantly on the Internet. We can also choose what we want to
know on the Web.
We can not only save time in searching news but also save
the money for buying newspapers.
Finally, the Internet
makes our life become more convenient and variable. Take myself for example. I used to
go to the movie
theater to see movies. With the Internet, I almost stay at home to download
movies to watch
and can eat my favorite food while enjoying the movies. I
consider that the Internet is one of the biggest
inventions in this
generation.
To sum
up, the Internet not only changes people’s interests but also turns the world
into the speed generation. As the Internet saves
us much time, we can have enough time to do other things. The Internet is a
marvelous creation in this generation.
