The Internet is a very fast and convenient way to get
information. It is an update source of information where you
can get the latest local and global news. You can check weather
conditions before you go on a picnic, you can find time-tables
and maps for your trip, you can book tickets for your flight or
reserve rooms in a hotel…
The Internet is a diversified source of entertainment: you can
listen to music, watch films or play games. You can
communicate with friends or relatives on the other side of the
earth very quickly by e-mail or chatting.
The Internet is also a means of education where you can teach
yourself. There are on-line schools for you to further your
education or to study for a degree. There are on-line lessons for

People can use the Internet for many purposes: information,
entertainment, education, etc… It is really a wonderful invention
of our modern life.
