The Internet is full of false information.It is important for us all to avoid being fooled by such information.Here are three examples of Internet hoaxes.
On his website,a man by the name of Tony has asked for gifts of money to save the life of a pretty little rabbit named Toby that he rescued from under his house.A cat must have attacked the rabbit,the man claimed,so he took it in.He gave Toby loving care and nursed him back to health.There is a very cruel point,however.If the greedy man doesn't receive enough money,he will eat poor little Toby.(Don't worry,though.Remember,it's just a hoax!)
While the streets of New Orleans,the USA,were still flooded after a terrible hurricane(飓风),a frightening e-mail was sent around the Internet.It included a photograph of a large crocodile over five meters long.According to the message,it had been swimming around the flooded city eating people.It was later discovered that the photographs of the crocodile were of one that was caught in the Congo(刚果)years before.
The following e-Mail hoax takes in many people.It claims that a large British company will pay you to send their e-mail to as many people as possible.For every person that you send the e-mail to,it promises you will receive$5.00;for every person that you send it to that sends it to someone else,you'll get$3.00; and for every third person that receives it,you will be paid$1.00.To make it even more believable,the sender says that at first he thought it was a hoax,but the company soon sent him$800.00.

Although the first airplane did not fly until1903,flying soon became the fastest method of transport. Today it is75people's favourite way of traveling long distances because it has a lot of advantages. The first airplanes were not big or powerful enough to carry more than a pilot,but during the First World War(1914-1918)larger aircraft with up to four engines were76to carry bombs(炸弹).After the war some of these were changed to carry a few passenger services.In1919the first regular passenger services were started between several cities in Europe.
Air transport was even then too77for most cargoes(货物),but mail began to be carried by air at an early stage.This was partly because letters are small and light,and partly because businessmen, especially,were prepared to pay more for their mail to be delivered by the fastest method.78,in the United States,where letters could take over a week to cross the country by train,airmail services were the first regular transport flights.
The early passenger aircraft could carry only about12passengers,and only enough79for short journeys.For long distances,such as from Europe to the United states,filled with very light gas and able to float through the air,began to be used in the1930s.
By the end of the Second World War in1945,much larger airplanes had been made.At the same time, military(军事的)airfields had been built all over the world,and long-distance routes had been set up.After the war,the introduction of the jet engine,which80much greater power,allowed even bigger and faster aircraft to be built.Today's wide-bodied airplanes can carry as many as800passengers.
Modern air transport passenger services are quite convenient.Air transport has allowed more people to travel abroad than ever before.

After she met Colin,Mary finally found the very person to take care of.Colin,the sick boy who couldn't even walk,had been in bed for about ten years.Before he met Mary,he was taken care of by the servants,but no one really cared how he was.He couldn't find any reason to live.So he cried and cried, thinking about death.But Mary came.Colin was completely attracted to Mary and to all those fresh thoughts and stories which came out of her mouth.Of course,the most exciting of all was the Secret Garden.
The feeling of having someone share your secret is wonderful,especially for the children.Colin used to be too weak to change his life,but now he had Mary,Dickon and the Secret Garden.All these gave him courage.Finally,with the help of his two little friends,he managed to stand up for the first time.
