Do you know that you can use the Internet to buy things? For several , Americans have enjoyed online shopping. Now online shopping is starting in the world. In many countries, people can their computers and shop for clothes, food, toys and many other things.
Online shopping is in fashion in England. For example, the ABC Company is one of the biggest in 15 European countries. It sells different kinds of things over the Internet, and in one year it made ＄100 million. In France, until last year online shopping was only possible one web page. Then the government allowed more online shopping. The Frenchmen spend much money a year things through these web pages. French businesses are hoping this new online shopping will help them sell more things in the future.
Some people like online shopping because it allows them to do shopping without leaving their homes. And they don’t have the problems of traffic in the cities. But they usually worry the quality of the things for sale over the Internet. Good quality is to them. So the companies will have to be more careful about the quality of the things sell.

When someone says, “Well, I guess I’ll have to face the music”, it doesn’t mean that he is planning to go to hear a singer or a concert. It shows you may feel uncomfortable when you are called in by your leader to why you did this and that or why you did not do this or that. If you “face the music”, you are sure to be less unhappy than that.
Every one of us has to “face the music” at some time or another, especially as . We can all remember father’s words “I want to talk to you”. And only because we did not listen to him. What a(an) thing it was!
In the middle or at the end of every , we students have to “face the music”. The result of the exam will whether we will face the music or not. If we don’t get good , that means parents’ cold faces and contempt (轻视) of the teachers and classmates.
