If you receive an e-mail that looks something like this: ARE YOU GOING TO CLASS TODAY? How does reading this message make you feel? Why did the sender use all capital letters? Was he or she angry, or did that person just forget to turn off the 'Cap Lock' on the computer?Knowing when and when not to use capital letters is just one example of online etiquette (礼仪)—often called 'netiquette'. Virginia Shea's book, Netiquette, lists a basic set of dos and don'ts for communicating suitably with others on the Internet. Following are some of her suggestions.
First, always remember that you are sending messages to a real person, not just to a computer.Also, remember that the person who receives your massage cannot hear the tone of your voice, or see the expression on your face, so make sure your meaning is clear.
Don't take anything without paying for it, unless it's fee. Don't use information that someone else has written, and say it's yours. Don't read other people's e-mail — you wouldn't open your next—door neighbor's mailbox and open their mail, right? Do share your knowledge of the Internet with others. It's a big place with lots of information, and there are many new things to discover.
Remember that people judge(判断)you by your words as well as your actions so do try to write well. Good writing skills, as well as correct grammar and spelling, do matter. Send polite, well—written e—mail messages to others. If you're uncertain about how to spell a word or which phrases to use, look it up. .
It's okay to show your ideas online in forums (论坛) like chatting room or message boards, but don't start arguments with people. "Flame wars"(口水战) in online discussions can be interesting to read, but are often unfair to other members of the group.
When you're online or offline, just as in "real" life, try to respect other people's space, privacy and feelings. Remember, you are not the only one travelling on this highway!
A. Maybe this is somebody's habit. B. There are lots of helpful books and websites. C. Don't type anything that you wouldn't say to someone's face. D. Don't do anything online that you wouldn't do in the real life. E. The fact is, this e-mail is usually the way that people shout online. F. Express your opinions, but remember that fighting online or offline is just not suitable. |
This week, our topic is pollution. What are the answers to all of our pollution problems? We asked two experts to give their views.
◇Forest Smith is a member of Green First, an environmental group.
Our future on the Earth looks very bad. We are dumping waste on our land. We can't breathe the fresh air. The sea is polluted too.
I visited some relatives recently in a small village. They grow their own food and cycle everywhere. They are not wealthy, but they are happy and healthy.
We must close the factories producing useless products. That will reduce rubbish and air pollution. We must recycle more, give up all cars, and improve public transport.
A big problem is overpopulation in big cities. We must give up big cities and factories, and go back to a simple way of life.
◇John Green is a scientist at a university.
Things are not as bad as Forest says. We'll have a bright future. We don't need to give up cars but we need to invent better, cleaner engines.
This won't stop the problem of traffic jams. So we need better public transport. We should also recycle more.
But some things are getting better. My sister returned last month after living abroad for five years. She said, “Our old neighbourhood doesn't look the same as before-it is cleaner and greener now.”
In a word, science has brought many improvements to our life.
