The Internet
The Internet is everywhere: at home, at school, in the streets, buses, planes, even in the underground! We use it every day at work and in our studies, we call each other, we listen to music, read books and newspapers, watch shows and videos, order taxi or some food and much more. People have been using the Internet since 1990s, but what do we know about it? Where did it come from?
The Internet is a huge network and every gadget on Earth can connect to it. It is like a big Network with billions of users around the world. We have got hardware ( PCs or laptops with cables, smartphones and other devices) to connect to the Internet and visit most popular sites. It came from the USA about 50 years ago, when the military agencies wanted to share secret information with each other. Nowadays the access is so easy that even small kids, like you, can surf the Internet!

The Internet is a network, or system, that connects billions of computers worldwide. It is one of the greatest inventions of the 20th century.
In the 1960s the U.S. created an early form of the Internet. In 1971 electronic mail, or e-mail was invented to send messages from one computer to another.

People often use the Web for studying and working. They use search engines such as Google, YaHoo and Yandex — to look for information on the Web. People also use the Web for entertainment. In the early 2000s some of the most popular Web sites were social networking and shopping sites. Facebook, Twitter and Instagram are social networking sites. They help people communicate with relatives and friends. Amazon and eBay are sites for shopping.

People should control the information they save online and what is shared with the public. A person’s real name, e-mail address, telephone number, home address, and school should be kept private.
