Life & English: “What would be Life without Internet?”
Many people say that the Internet is the most important invention ever, and I definitely believe that it is true.
Nowadays computer is so affordable that in every home you can find one. What is more, the Internet connects people all around the world, and allows making on-line businesses transactions and proving a special kind of education. Computers did not exist a century ago and people had happy lives without them. Nowadays, we take computers for granted and nothing can exist without them.
Life would stop without computers. You wouldn’t even think how many common products are operated by computers. Our cars, microwave ovens, wristwatches and thousands of other gadgets. Appearing on the Internet you can search on World Wide Web – for information when you have to . There are millions of websites storing an endless number of data. You can find many dozens of information about everything on the Internet: history, animals, plants, nature, music, famous people etc. There are countless number of services available on the net.
What is more you can download music, films, listen to foreign radio stations, play games, read and subscribe newspapers and magazines and you can even purchase or sell various products, order food… In addition you can transfer money through the Internet, and learn languages on-line on several web pages and practice English because most users speak the language. You can keep in touch with friends or other people from other countries to write them e-mails if you have an e-mail access and it is very fast…
