The Internet without doubt is the most important inventions in modern life; it is the one that changed the world life style and it is still changing it. Where can we see that change? Well we can compared the world around 20 years ago when the internet just began, and the world now, it is a big difference especially in the fields of communications, information sharing, entertainment and world expansion.
In the communication field the Information delivery really changed in a positive way thanks to the Internet. You can be informed about the entire world only with some clicks by reading newspapers from countries that perhaps you never heard about and also watching their television channels. No matter where you are, if you have a computer and Internet connection you can know everything important that happened in your country and in the world.
Entertainment is another advantage of the Internet. You can indulge yourself in exploring the Internet without feeling bored. On-line games, music, videos and all that you can imagine are inside this virtual world. However, we need to be careful about the use of the Internet and do not become addicted to it because this has become a problem in the modern society.
I consider that the two most important functions of the Internet in this moment are the e-mail and e-business. E-mail is faster and cheaper than regular Post Office mail, so it inevitably became the most popular way to communicate with family or friends; therefore, the number of users continues rising. Then, we have the giant e-business, which has become more and more popular around the world; clothes, books, CDs, cosmetics, foods, and much more are available on the Internet. For convenience and sometimes price, shopping on-line is the option that a lot of people choose every day.

Does not matter where you are, if you have a computer and Internet connection you can know everything important that happened in your country.
Entertainment is other of the good points of the Internet, you can pass hours and hours explore the web and do not feel boring. On-line games, music, videos and all that you can imagine is certainly exist inside this virtual world. However, we need to be carefully and not become addicted to it because this is already one problem in the modern society.
I consider that other two important facilities of the Internet are the e-mail and e-business. E-mail is faster and cheaper than regular Post Office mail, so inevitably became the most popular way to communicate with family or friends; therefore the number of users logging continues rising. Then, we have the giant e-business, which became more and more popular around the world; clothes, books, cd’s, cosmetics, food, and much more is ready to buy in the Internet. For convenience and some times price shopping on-line is the option that a lot of people choose every day.
In conclusion, I think that the invention of the Internet makes our lives easier in different ways and is already part of our lives, from now we can enjoy the advantages that the Internet offer to us without became addict to it!

Compare and contrast living in an apartment and in the dormitory (Final)
I think that living in an apartment and living in the dormitory have both their advantages and disadvantages. I have been living in the dormitory for almost two years and I feel very satisfied with it, the advantages for students are many: because you do not need to take a bus to go to class, the cost of the room and food on campus are cheaper than outside, so you can save a lot of money. Moreover, if your roommates are also your classmates maybe the friendship improves. On the other hand, the space is limited and it is not exactly your own space, on occasions you can not choose who are you going to live with and your roommates will be people you do not know.
Unlike living in the dormitory, living in an apartment is more expensive. In other words, you will spend more money paying the rent, electricity, water, Internet connection, etc. Also, if you do not have a motorcycle you need to take a bus or MTR to go to school, so you need to learn to manage your time. However, if you find a good place you can have more space and also privacy, and perhaps you have the option to cook by yourself unlike in the dormitory.
To conclude, in my opinion, from the moment that you leave home to begin a more independent life, these two different environments are both good to learn how to deal with daily life and accepting others and their habits.

I think that living in an apartment and living in the dormitory have both their advantages and disadvantages. I have been living in the dormitory for almost two years and I feel very satisfied with it, the advantages for students are many: because you do not need to take a bus to go to class, the cost of the room and food inside the campus are cheaper than outside, so you can save a lot of money. Moreover if your roommates are also your classmates maybe the friendship improves. On the other hand, the space is reduced and it is not exactly your own space, in occasions you can not choose who are you going to live with and your roommates will be people you do not know.
