We’re spending more and more of our lives online. We buy things over the internet and chat to friends in chat
rooms. In fact, many of us live in a large part of our lives in cyberspace. It’s easy to forget, though, that there are the
same kinds of risks there as there are in real life. It’s important that all of us learn about internet safety from a young
age to protect ourselves.
For example, one thing about chatting on the internet is that you often can’t see the person you are chatting with.
Using video may be getting more common, which means that you can see if the person really is who they say they
are. Without that, though, it’s very easy for someone to pretend to be someone else. Remember that a photograph
can come from anywhere and doesn’t prove anything. Be very careful who you trust because the teenager who
wants to chat and be your friend might not really be a teenager at all.
Another thing to be careful of is meeting online friends in real life. You should never give your address and
telephone number to people in chat rooms. Apart from the danger of not being sure who they are, there’s also the
danger of other people seeing what you write. If you are thinking of meeting an online friend, always get your
parents’ permission. Ask them to come with you to meet your friend in a public place, such as café.
You should also be careful with other information. Never send anything important, like a credit card number, in an
email, for example. The journey the email takes from one computer to the other seems instant. However, it goes
through other computers where people could possibly read your email and use that information. That can be very
expensive mistake to make.
Finally, remember that if something sounds too good to be true, then it probably is. Some criminals try to fool
people with emails that say you have won a prize. It might look exciting, but almost all those messages are false.
When you reply, they will ask you to send money to get your prize. You should always ignore those messages and
delete them,
21. Why is the internet safety more important now?
A. There are more criminals than before.
B. We do more things on the internet now.
C. People often have fewer friends these days.
D. We often don’t receive the things we buy online.
22. When you chat with someone on the internet, you are safer if you _______
A. Ask for a photograph
B. Only chat to teenager
C. Use video
D. Pretend to be someone else
23. When you give personal information in a chat room, ___________
A. Your parents don’t need to know.
B. People learn to trust you
C. You can meet more people
D. Everyone can see it
24. Putting personal information in an email could mean that you lose_________
A. friends
B. money
C. time
D. your computer
25. When you get an email offering you a prize, you should______________
A. Reply it from your computer
B. Reply to it immediately
C. Do what it asks you to

MIND YOUR MANNERS!

Do you ever speak with your mouth full of food? Do you forget to cover your mouth with your hand when you
sneeze? If you are guilty of these “crimes”, then perhaps you should enroll on an Etiquette an Social skills course.
This is not just an ordinary course. It is a course in manners. You will have lessons in good manners and how to
behave in social situations.
The person who teaches these lessons is Maggie O’ Farrill at the Petite Protocol School, and her students are aged
between six to twelve years old. She thinks this is the best time to teach kids, “At that age they are very easy,” O’
Farrill says. “When they gets older, it’s harder for them to break bad habits. Children at this age won’t to be polite.
You can see that they’re trying.
Maggie instructs the children to speak properly on the phone and walk correctly, as well as telling them about basic
table manners. These classes have become popular because parents want well-behaved children but they are so busy
to teach manners at home.
So, what do children actually think of this course? The class have proven to be more popular with most of the
children, and their teachers at school have noticed that the youngsters are treating each other with more respect.
They also feel the skills they have learnt will be useful to them in the future. Danny, aged nine, commented, “if I get
invited to the White House, I know I won’t spill anything on the president.”
Maggie O’ Farrill herself believes that such skills can be life-changing. “We’ll have children growing up who value
manners. Maybe we’ll see a change in direction for the better in society,” That, however, remains to be seen, only
time will tell.
