Dragons can be friendly or fierce (凶狠), they can bring good luck or cause death, but one thing is sure——people talk about them almost everywhere in the world.
In Chinese culture, dragons are generous and wise, although they can be unpredictable. The dragon was closely connected to the royal family: the emperor's robes (礼袍) have a symbol of a gold dragon with five claws. According to popular belief, if you were born in the year of the dragon, you are intelligent, brave, and a natural leader.
But in the west, dragons had a different reputation (名声). The very first text in English, the Anglo-Saxon poem Beowulf, tells the story of a Scandinavian hero, Beowulf, who fights and kills a dangerous dragon but is himself killed in the fight. However, across the border in Wales, the red dragon which appears on the Welsh flag is a positive symbol, indicating strength and a sense of national identity.
Why should the dragon have a different character in different parts of the world? Some experts believe it is due to the animals that the myths grew out of. In the west, the idea of the dragon probably came from the snake—an animal which people hated and were afraid of.
But in China, the idea of the dragon may have come from the alligator--a shy animal which lives in rivers, but which is usually only seen when there is plenty of water--a good sign for agriculture(农业). So the Chinese dragon was a bringer of good fortune.

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. 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.

Last summer, Cathy’s whole family went to New York City for their summer vacation. They stayed there for two weeks.
New York City has more than seven and a half million people. It is the largest city in the United States. It is also the home of the United Nations.
First they visited The Statue of Liberty. The Statue of Liberty is one of New York’s most well known historic sites. Millions of people visit New York City every year.
On the second day they went to the Empire State Building. It is the tallest building in New York City now. From the top of the building, they saw most parts of New York. On the third day, they visited the Metropolitan Museum. In this museum, they saw a lot of famous paintings. During the rest time of the week, Bob went to Bronx Zoo with his younger brother and sister. There they were glad to see a lot of their favorite animals-tigers, lions, monkeys, and elephants.
In the second week, the family visited Long Island. On the island, they spent most of their time swimming sunbathing and playing on the beach. They all had a good time.
