For several years, Americans have enjoyed teleshopping—watching TV and buying things by phone.Now teleshopping is starting in Europe (欧洲).In a number of European countries, people can turn on their TVs and shop for clothes, jewelry, food, toys, and many other things.
Teleshopping is becoming popular in Sweden, for example.The biggest Swedish company sells different kinds of things on TV in 15 European countries, and in one year it made ＄100 million.In France there are two teleshopping channels, and the French spend about ＄20 million a year to buy things through these channels.
In Germany, until last year teleshopping was only possible on one channel for 1 hour every day.Then the government allowed (允许) more telepshopping.Other channels can open for telebusiness, including (包括) the largest American teleshopping company and a 24-hour teleshopping company.German businessmen are hoping this new teleshopping will help them sell more things.
Some people like teleshopping because it allows them to do their shopping without leaving their homes.With all the problems of traffic in the cities, this is an important reason.But at the same time, other Europeans do not like this new way of shopping.They call teleshopping “junk (垃圾) on the air”.Many Europeans usually worry about the quality (质量) of the things for sale on TV.Good quality is important to them, and they believe they cannot be sure about the quality of the things on TV.
The need for high quality means that European teleshopping companies will have to be different from the American companies.They will have to be more careful about the quality of the things they sell.They will also have to work harder to sell things that the buyers cannot touch or see in person.

Try this: for a whole day, forget about the clock. Eat when you're hungry and sleep when you're tired. What do you think will happen?
You may be surprised to find that your day is much like most other days. You'll probably get hungry when you normally eat and tired when you normally sleep. Even though you don't know what time it is, your body does.
Inside our bodies are several clocklike systems that follow a 24- hour cycle. Everyone is unique, which is why you might like to stay up late while your sister always wants to go to bed early.
Regularly staying up late can make kids do worse on tests and quizzes. And working shifts at night leads to higher rates of heart disease.
"There is a growing sense that when we eat and when we sleep are important parts of how healthy we are," says Steven Shea, Director of the Sleep Disorders Research Program at Brigham and Women's Hospital in Boston.
"During the night, we are prepared to sleep," Shea says. "During the day, we are prepared to eat and move around, If you reverse ( 颠倒) what you are doing, everything is out of phase. "That can have adverse consequences.

      Just as in face-to-face communication, there are some basic rules of behavior(行为) that should be followed on the Internet. The basic rule is simple: treat others in the same way you would want to be treated. 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 that to the person's face?” If the answer is no, rewrite and reread. If someone in the chat room is rude to you, you needn't to fire back. You should either ignore(不理睬) the person, or use your chat software to block their messages. Remember to respect the beliefs and opinions of others in the chat room.
     Everyone was new to the network once. Offer advice when asked by newcomers, as they may not be sure what to do or how to communicate. When someone makes a mistake, be kind about it. If you do decide to tell someone about the mistake, point it out politely. At the same time, if you find you are wrong, be sure to correct yourself and apologize to those that you have offended(冒犯). You'd better not ask others questions about their age, sex and families. Unless you know the person very well, and you are both comfortable with sharing personal information, or don't ask such questions.

How much pocket money do you get from your parents each week? British researchers did a survey of 1,204 children between 8 and 15 years old. According to the reports, they are getting less and less pocket money.

In 2010	They found the average amount of pocket money for British kids was about 5.89 pounds (62 yuan) a week.
In 2009	It was 6.24 pounds (66 yuan).
In 2007	It was 6.58 pounds (69 yuan).
In 2003	Parents gave children an average of 5.79 pounds (61 yuan) a week.

However, children are not too worried about it, according to the survey. Almost half of them believe they get the right amount. Only 42 percent say they would like to have more pocket money. Most kids like to compare their pocket money with their friends. In the survey, 37 percent believe their friends get more money than they do.

Although they are receiving less pocket money than before, most British kids still keep the good habit of saving, according to the survey.

10%	They save all their pocket money.
25%	They save at least half.
35%	They will save money to buy something they really want.

"It is good to develop the habit of saving at a young age," said Flavia Palacios Uman, one of the researchers. "You will benefit later in life because your savings will add up over time."

Mobile phones have become a problem for some middle schools. In a middle school in Australia, students are not allowed to carry mobile phones during school hours.

Mobile phone use among children has become a problem for the school this year. Several children have got mobile phones as Christmas gifts, and more students will want them.

Mary Bluett, an official, said mobile phone use is a distraction (分心的事) to students during school hours and it also gives teachers so much trouble in their classrooms. Teachers were also saying that sometimes students might use phone messages to cheat (作弊) during exams.

She said some schools had tried to ban (禁止) mobile phones. Some parents felt unhappy because they couldn't get in touch with their children.

Many teachers think students should not have mobile phones at school. They said there were many reasons. The mobile phones were easy to lose and were a distraction from studies. But if there was a good reason, students could leave their phones at school office.

Many people say that they understand why parents would want their children to have phones, but they think schools should let the students know when they can use their mobile phones.
