The Internet has opened up a whole new online world for us to meet，chat and go where we’ve never been before．
But just as in face to face communication，there are some rules of behavior that should be followed when on line．   Imagine how you’d feel if you were in the other person’s shoes．
For anything you’re about to send，ask yourself，“Would I say this to the person’s face？”If the answer is no，rewrite and reread．        .
If someone in the chat room is rude to you，your instinct (本能) is to fire back in the same manner．But try not to do so．   If it was caused by a disagreement with another member，try to fix the situation by politely discussing it．Remember to respect the beliefs and opinions of others in the chat room．
               Offer advice when asked by newcomers，as they may not be sure what to do or how to communicate．When someone makes a mistake，whether it’s a stupid question or an unnecessarily long answer，be kind about it．If it’s a small mistake，you may not need to say anything．Even if you feel strongly about it，think twice before saying anything．Having good manners yourself doesn’t give you license to correct everyone else．   At the same time，if you find you are wrong，be sure to correct yourself and apologize to those that you have offended．
It is not polite to ask others personal questions such as age，sex，and marital status．Unless you know the person very well，and you are both comfortable with sharing personal information，don’t ask such questions．

A．Everyone was new to the network once．

B．If you do decide to tell someone about a mistake，point it out politely．

C．It’s natural that there are some people who speak rudely or make mistakes online．

D．The basic rule is simple: treat others in the same way you would want to be treated．

E．You should either ignore the person，or use your chat software to block their messages．
F．When you send short messages to a person online，you must say something beautiful to hear．
G．Repeat the process till you feel sure that you’d feel comfortable saying words to a person’s face．

There is distinction between reading for information and reading for understanding．   .
The first sense is the one in which we read newspapers, magazines, or anything else．   Such materials may increase our store of information, but they cannot improve our understanding．And clearly we don’t have any difficulty in gaining the new information, for our understanding was equal to them before we started．Otherwise, we would have felt the shock of puzzlement．
The second sense is the one in which we read something that at first we do not completely understand．Here the thing to be read is at the first sight better or higher than the reader．The writer is communicating something that can increase the reader’s understanding．   Otherwise one person could never learn from another．Here “learning” means understanding more, not remembering more information．
What are the conditions in this kind of reading? First, there is inequality in understanding．   Besides, his book must convey something he possesses and his potential readers lack．Second, the reader must be able to overcome this inequality in some degree．And he should always try to reach the same level of understanding with the writer．If the equality is approached, success of communication is achieved．
   It is the least demanding and requires the least amount of effort．Everyone who knows how to read can read for entertainment if he wants to．In fact, any book that can be read for understanding or information can probably be read for entertainment as well．

A．Thus, we can employ the word “reading” in two distinct senses．

B．Such communication between unequals must be possible．

C．We can get access to the content of those materials easily．

D．The writer must be “superior” to the reader in understanding．

E．The writer should have a better communicating skill．
F．Besides gaining information and understanding, there’s another goal of reading—entertainment．
G．Reading for entertainment is capable of increasing our understanding for information．
