　　Net-surfing —— Are You Ready?

　　With the booming of information age, Internet has played an important role in young people’s everyday life. Today, more and more college students are using Internet for their routine life and study. Net-surfing has become an important part of campus life and greatly enriched the students’ life.

　　Some students, however, spend too much time on Internet. Sometimes they would be completely indulged in the virtual Internet world. Whenever they find a “cozy” place in a stuffy net bar they would play computer games or chat on-line day and night, forgetting the passing of time. Worse still, some students even become addicted to visit the pornographic websites or play computer games that are full of violence. This, certainly, does great harm to both their health and their study.

　　There is no denying that Internet has enriched young people’s life. But once a student becomes too indulged in the virtual Internet world the student’s normal life will be impacted, and even spoiled. As youngsters, we should tell right from wrong. We should try to limit the net-surfing time to a reasonable amount and refuse to visit those websites which are established only to lure young people with the content of sex and violence. Only in this way can we truly establish and maintain a colorful Internet world.

       Dumplings Dumplings are one of the Chinese people’s favorite traditional dishes. According to an ancient Chinese legend, dumplings were first made by the medical saint---Zhang Zhongjing. There are three steps involved in making dumplings: 1) make dumpling wrappers out of dumpling flour; 2) prepare the dumpling stuffing; 3) make dumplings and boil them. With thin and elastic dough skin, fresh and tender stuffing, delicious taste, and unique shapes, dumplings are worth eating hundreds of times. There’s an old saying that claims, “Nothing could be more delicious than dumplings”. During the Spring Festival and other holidays, or when treating relatives and friends, Chinese people like to follow the auspicious custom of eating dumplings. To Chinese people who show high reverence for family love, having dumplings at the moment the old year is replaced by the new is an essential part of bidding farewell to the old and ushering in the new year.
