We use the Internet for many things: business, shopping， writing letters, talking to people, finding information and so on. In recent years a new kind of English has grown on the Internet. There’s no real word for it yet, so we’ll call it e-talk. People don’t like typing too much. To save time, they turn phrases into a few letters called acron
yms. Acronyms are often used in chat rooms. Some of them are.
BTW （by the way） BRB (be right back)
LOL (laughing out loud) IMO (in my opinion)
People also use many abbreviations (缩写), They are s
hortened forms of words. Some common abbreviations are:
Info (information) purer (computer)
Pie (picture) sec (second)
We usually don’t see people when we communicate (交流) on the Net, so people have new ways to show feelings. Most people use their keywords to draw “feeling”. such as:
:-)( happy) :-p(joking) :-( (sad) :-0(surprised)
These days, many forums (论坛) have picture feelings. For example，
There are even whole new words, like” newbie’s”(someone who is new on a chat board or forum).
It takes time for people to get used to (适应) e-talk. Also, different groups on the Net have their own special ways of communicating. Newbie’s have to ask other people what they mean. As the Internets grows, e-talk will continue to grow and change. What does the underline “acronyms” mean?
A.网友 B.聊天室 C.首字母缩写词 Why do people type acronyms?

C. In this way newbie’s won’t understand them. What does” BTW, my purer is not working well.:-(“mean?
A. The person is angry at somebody.
B. The person is happy about getting a new computer.
C. The person is sad that his computer is having problems. E-talk wills probably .
A. keep changing.
B. be easy by people on the telephone

Do you want to know anything about ma staying in America? Well, Let me tell you the truth, it is really an eye-opening experience to study here.
In China, I had English classes five times a week since the fifth grade. However didn’t know textbook English was very different from everyday English until I came to Hotchkiss School, Connecticut.
When I first studied English, I was told to say，“I am fine” when people say “How are you?”But in the US, I found that people say,” I am good” or “I am tired.”
One day, someone greeted me with” What’s up?”It made me confused. I thought for a moment and then smiled because I didn’t know what to say.
Since then, I have discovered more and more differences between Chinese and the US cultures.
To my surprise, the US girls spend a lot of time in burning sun getting a tan （晒黑）. However, in China, girls try every possible way to get their skin paler（白的）.
I am also surprised by how hardworking the US students are. In China, schoolwork is almost everything, so we study hard all the time. But here, an “excellent” student gets good grades, does a lot for the public and plays sports or music .The kids here are so talented ，I am starting to be sorry that I gave up playing the piano at an early age and that I have never thought about sports. How often did the writer have an English class in Grade Five?
A. Four times a week.
B. Five times a week.
C. Six times 
a week.To the winter, textbook English is everyday English.
A. quite different from B. the same as C. easier thanA good US student spends his/her time .
A. only in doing homework
B. only on sports or music
C. on studies, sports or music and public workWhich of following is NOT true?
A. The writer is now in the US
B. American girls love to have while skin
C. The US students are talented and hard working.Which is the best title for the passage?
A. My own Travel in the US.
