Internet shopping is a new way of shopping. You can shop for just about anything from your armchair. All you need is a computer which is linked to the Internet.
People can shop for a variety of products on the Internet. Physical products include items such as books, CDs, clothes and foods. You can also buy information products such as on-line news or magazine stories, or you can download computer software through the Internet. Services such as booking airline tickets, reserving hotels or renting cars are also available on the Internet. You can also go shopping on the Internet for entertainment services such as on-line games or e-mail “chats”.
To find something on the Internet, people often use powerful computer tools called “search engines”. You can search for a type of product, such as sports shoes, or a brand name, such as Nike. The search engine will give you a list of websites where you can find these products. These websites may be specialist shops such as a Nike shop, or they may be general stores, called malls, which sell a variety of goods.
The main disadvantage of Internet shopping is that you can not actually see the products you are buying or check their quality. Also, many people enjoy shopping in the city and miss the opportunity to talk to friends. Some people are worried about paying for goods using credit cards, so Internet companies are now finding ways to make on-line payment safe.
Internet shopping is sure to become more and more popular in the years ahead. It promises to change the way we buy all kinds of things ---- from tonight’s dinner to a new car.

　New York, 10 November 5:27 pm, yesterday. Biggest power failure in the city's history . 　　　
*Thousands of people got stuck in lifts. Martin Saltzman spent three hours between the 21st and 22nd floors of the Empire State Building. "There were twelve of us. But no one panicked(惊恐/惊慌). We passed the time telling stories and playing word games. One man wanted to smoke but we didn't let him. Firemen finally got us out."　* "It was the best night we've ever had," said Angela Carraro, who runs an Italian restaurant on 42nd Street." We had lots of candles on the tables and the
waiters were carrying candles on their trays. The place was full and all night, in fact, for after we had closed, we let the people stay on and spend the night here."　*The zoos had their problems like everyone else. Keepers worked through the night. They used blankets to keep flying squirrels and small monkeys warm. While zoos had problems keeping warm, supermarkets had problems keeping cool. "All of our ice cream and frozen foods melted," said the manger of a store in downtown Manhattan." They were worth $50,0000." *The big electric clock in the lobby(大厅) of the Waldorf-Astoria Hotel in downtown Manhattan started(滴答) again at 5:25 this morning. It was almost on time.

An old machine needs repairs after running for several years. And the United Nations—a machine to keep international order — is undergoing changes before its 60th birthday.
At the UN’s 59th general meeting, held in New York from September 14, the issue of reform has dominated (支配) the talks. The biggest challenge was how to reform the Security Council （安理会）, the most important organ(机构) of the UN.
Brazil, Germany, India and Japan want permanent (永久的) seats on the council, alongside the existing five members. Currently, the members include the US, Russia, China, France and Britain.
This new group of countries argues that there are good reasons for them to join the council. Japan pays more money into the UN budget (预算) than any nation except the US. India is the world’s largest democracy. Germany is a European giant, while Brazil is a very powerful South American country.
Since 1945, the council has contributed a lot to world peace. It has helped cool at least 172 regional conflicts and 80 wars through peacekeeping actions. But recently, its power has been challenged. The Iraq War, for example, was started by the US without full UN support. The Security Council has reached “a fork (岔口) in the road, a moment for a hard look at structural changes”, said the UN Secretary- General, Kofi Annan.
Not everyone agrees that these countries should join the council. “It is not like a board of directors (董事会) of a company. You can’t join just because of how much money you contribute, ” said Kong Quan Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman. China and South Korea have questioned Japan’s candidacy (侯选资格), because of its history of invasion.
Italy, a solid supporter of the US in lraq, has said it will oppose Germany, which did not back the war. India’s claim will not be supported by Pakistan because of their long-running dispute (对抗). Brazil’s entry might be opposed by other Latin American states.
Annan has appointed a group, including former Chinese Vice Premier Qian Qichen, to settle the matter. They will report back in a year.
