My topic today is the internet. It was prompted   by the first letter, which I am unable to answer fully for the reasons given! Dear David, I am a middle school student. Now I am preparing for a writing competition. Could you  please check the mistakes in my article about using the Internet and give me some advice? Thank you.                                                       No name David writes: I am very sorry to say that I think it would be very unfair for me to help you win a competition-- unfair to the other competitors! But I will say that your article is very interesting and I wish you good luck. Your article  makes some good points that deserve talking about in this column! ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Dear David, I'm now learning English by myself. Can you introduce some useful websites where I can  make friends with foreigners? Please help me.                                                       moonlight David writes: Well, dear moonlight, I bet you made a good choice by using the Net in your self-studies. Two very good websites I would suggest to you are:     www.britishcouncil.org.cnandwww.britishcouncil.org/learnenglish. By the way, for those readers interested in the teaching of English, there is an Internet  discussion group called ELTCSChi-L (English Language Teaching Contacts Scheme prefix = st1 /China List). And also, a healthy warning to all my readers: If over-used, the Internet can be a WOMBAT-A Waste of Money, Brains and Time! Which of the following is NOT David's opinion of the internet?
English teachers can exchange opinions on the Net. The internet is of much help to English learners. Using the internet is a waste of money and time. We should make a proper use of the Net.
