Hw t prtect children Web fans frm unsuitable material n-line while encuraging them t use the Internet has lng been discussed in the U.S.
Fr sme parents, the Internet can seem like a jungle, filled with danger fr their children. But jungles cntain wnders as well as hazards (危险) and with gd guides, sme educatin, and a few precautins (预防措施), the wilds f the Internet can be safely navigated (航行). “Kids have t be n-line. If we tell ur kids they can’t have access (机会) t the Internet, we’re cutting them ff frm their future, ” said an expert.
Mst kids have started t use search engines. Many f them are great fr finding tns f interesting Internet sites, and they can als lcate places where yu might nt want yur kids t g. There are search engines designed just fr kids. A certain sftware cntains nly sites that have been selected as safe. The mst ppular way t limit access wuld be t use what is knwn as a “cntent screener (过滤器)”. But this can’t be whlly reliable (可靠), and the best thing parents can d is t talk t their kids and let them knw what is OK r nt OK t see r d n the Internet. Anther way is that mum r dad is nearby when the child is surfing (浏览) the Internet.
A few ther tips:
—Dn’t put the PC in a child’s rm but keep it in an area where mum r dad can keep an eye n things. That als makes the Internet mre f a family activity.
—Ask yur child what he r she has been ding and abut any friends they make n-line.
—Tell yur child nt t give n-line strangers persnal infrmatin, especially like address and phne number.
—And tell yur children never t talk t anyne they meet n-line ver the phne, send them anything, accept anything frm them r agree t meet with them unless yu g alng.

Fr mst peple, graduatin means the end f years f hard wrk. But my graduatin day was nt. I still remember that weekend tw years ag. Many families flew in frm acrss the cuntry t watch ur class walk acrss that stage. But we had seen the ecnmy turn frm bad t wrse in my senir year.
We graduates with degrees, but very limited prspects (前途). I gathered up everything I culdn’t carry and put it int strage. Knwing the small university twn culdn’t ffer me any pprtunities, I drve t Suthern Califrnia t find wrk. But after I sent ff a bunch f jb applicatins, I fund myself in the exact same spt as I was befre. Nw the day came fr me t pay ff my student lans(贷款).
Every mrning I wke up, I felt anxius. Hw I hped what happened t me was just a bad dream! Days felt like weeks, weeks like mnths. I felt painful and helpless in thse mnths. And the mst discuraging part was n matter hw much I tried, I just culdn’t seem t make any prgress.
S I began t write. Putting wrds n a page made everything seem a little brighter. And writing gave me hpe. If yu want smething badly enugh, smetimes a little hpe is all yu need!
I channeled my frustratin(挫折)int a children’s bk. Beynd the River was the stry f an unlikely her featuring a little fish wh simply refused t give up n his dream.
And then ne day, withut any srt f writing degree—just a lt f hard wrk and perseverance(毅力)—I was ffered a publishing cntract fr my first bk! After that, things slwly began t imprve. I was ffered a secnd bk deal. Then, a few mnths later, I gt an interview with The Walt Disney Cmpany and was hired shrtly after.
If yu wrk hard and give it time, things will always get better. Even if things seem hpeless nw, dn’t give up. Usually, ur dreams lie in wait just a little further upstream. All we need is the curage t push beynd the river.

1-3 BCB 4--7.ADBD 8- 11CBA D 12- 15DABC
Li Yang, ne f China’s mst famus English teachers, aplgized fr beating his American wife mre than a week after she psted phts f her injuries n the web and set ff a bmb f criticism.
“I whleheartedly aplgize t my wife Kim and my girls fr cmmitting dmestic vilence. This has caused them serius physical and mental damage,” Li said n his micrblg at Weib.cm, the cuntry’s mst ppular scial media site, n Saturday. Li, 42, is a mechanics majr but is best knwn fr his “Crazy English,” a ppular methd f language learning that invlves yelling at the tp f ne’s lungs.
He was at the center f public criticism after his wife Kim Lee put up psts n the web accusing him f abuse, shwing her swllen frehead and knees.
@Xuemanzi, angel investr
Anti-dmestic vilence laws shuld be made as sn as pssible, giving prtectin t the rights f wmen and children lawfully. Plice shuld nt stand back frm dmestic vilence any lnger, even if n ne reprts them. Sciety, as a whle, shuld attach greater imprtance t the crime.
@Zhangxiamei
Chinese are never taught abut marital(婚姻的) relatins, which mean nt merely living tgether. A gd marriage needs t vercme three differences: family backgrund, gender and persnalities. In additin t these, there is cultural gap in Li Yang’s case. If the effects f these differences are nt well understd, after the hneymn perid, they will turn int cnflicts and endanger the marriage. Li’s dmestic vilence is a reminder that China needs such educatin.
@Wuxialng, Sina Weib user
Li Yang’s chice t resrt t dmestic vilence really reflects his character. Students wh have attended his Crazy English Camp may knw what I mean: Li wants his students t wrship him as an idl. I still remember he nce had his students kwtw（叩头） t him. He always teaches English by impsitin(权威强制), which directly reflects his desire fr pwer.
@Sikazhe, Sina Weib user
In the US, the punishments fr dmestic vilence are even mre severe than stealing. If the plice arrive at the wife’s call during a fighting between a cuple and find injuries n her, they will immediately arrest the husband. Even if the wife desn’t call the plice, they may als shw up as neighbrs culd well d their part.
@ykxin Sina Weib User
Dn’t blindly wrship anyne, because in every clset there may hide a skeletn. As a famus Chinese saying ges, “Only they wh d well in their daily rutine tasks can fulfills their dreams n great ccasins”. Nt surprisingly, ne wh fcuses t much n his career and ignres his family, like Li Yang, will fail in bth. Dn’t judge a persn by his career success, wealth, r any ther material aspect, because what finally decides a persn is his character.
Althugh Li Yang publicly aplgized t his wife, prmising t lve his daughters even if he and Lee divrce, the damage, perhaps permanently, has been dne t his wife, his three daughters and the whle family.
Wang Xingjuan, funder f the Maple Wmen’s Psychlgical Cnsulting Center, a nn-prfit rganizatin, said nearly half f dmestic vilence abusers are peple wh have higher educatin, senir jbs and scial status. She said this was prbably because such peple were usually under mre mental stress.
