Each nation has many good people who help to take care of others. For example， some high school and college students in the United States often spend many hours as volunteers in hospitals， orphanages (孤兒院) or homes for the old. They read books to the people in these places， or they just visit them and play games with them or listen to their problems.

Other volunteers go and work in the homes of people who are sick or old. They paint， clean up， or repair their houses， do their shopping or mow (修整) their lawns (草坪).For boys who no longer have fathers there is an organization called Big Brothers. College students and other men take these boys to baseball games or on fishing trips and help them to get to know things that boys usually learn from their fathers.

Each city has a number of clubs where boys and girls can go to play games or learn crafts.

We are all busy talking about and using the Internet， but how many of us know about the history of the Internet?

Many people are surprised when they find that the Internet was set up in the 1960s. At that time， computers were large and expensive. Computer networks (網(wǎng)絡(luò)) didn’t work well. If one computer in the network broke down， then the whole network stopped. So a new network system (系統(tǒng)) had to be set up. It should be good enough to be used by many different computers. If part of the network was not working， information could be sent through another part. In this way the computer network system would keep on working all the time.

At first， the Internet was only used by the government， but in the early 1970s， universities， hospitals and banks were allowed to use it too. However， computers were still expensive and the Internet was difficult to use. By the start of the 1990s， computers become cheaper and easier to use. Scientists had also developed software (軟件) that made “surfing (瀏覽)” the Internet more convenient (方便). Today it is easy to get on-line and it is said that millions of people use the Internet every day. Sending e-mail is more and more popular among students.

The Internet has now become one of the most important parts of people’s life.
