　　You can find information about almost anything in the world on these pages. For example, you can use the Inter-net instead of a library to find information for your homework. You can also find information about your favourite sport or film star, talk to your friends or even do some shopping on the pages. Most pages have words, pictures and even sound or music.

Write a message, type in the person's e-mail address, then send the message, type in the person's e-mail address, then send the message across the internet.
