    I have been using the Internet since I was five years old, when my dad first sat me down in front of our
computer and connected me to the World Wide Web.
    I"ve always felt like a master of the Internet world. AOL Instant Messaging, MSN, Gmail, Facebook, Myspace - I"ve got it all under control. I thought there was nothing more to the Internet besides checking
my e-mail and wasting my time until I found out about electronic commerce (e-commerce): business on
the Internet. Do Amazon.com, Yahoo.com, or monster.com mean anything to you?
    My friends often said they got cheap textbooks on Amazon.com, or had a good deal on Steve Madden boots that were on sale at SteveMadden.com. Unfortunately for me, I went on with my "e-commerce-less" Web-surfing, unaware of all the deals I was missing out on.
    That is, of course, until my sister finally sold the idea to me.
    "Why are all these packages arriving in the mail for you, Katy?" I asked her one day. Strange envelopes had been put on our doorstep for weeks now, each one always addressed to my sister; and we all know
little sisters should never be getting more mail than their older siblings (兄弟姐妹)!
    "Oh, it"s the stuff I ordered online!" she answered. I watched as she opened item after item. There was
no way our parents were letting her spend that much money - online or off!
"How much did all of this cost?"
    "Oh, only about $15 in all!" She said excitedly. "Everything on eBay is on sale! It"s better than going to
the mall."
    I felt as if my whole life, there had been a giant store in my backyard that I had never known about.
That week, I ordered a used Spanish textbook for 10 percent of the publisher"s price. A few days later,
I bought an iPod protector and a book or two from the wonderful eBay.com.

4. Which of the following could be the best title for the article?

阅读表达。     You might have some characters that you don"t like.  For example, you may be a shy person and you
don"t like it; you wish you are an outgoing person.  You might then think that you are not smart enough.  All these give reasons to you not to like yourself.  Fortunately, there are always things you can do to make you like yourself.  Here are some tips:
1.  Write your success stories
     One reason we may not like ourselves is that we are too focused on what we don"t have that we forget about what we(already) have.  So make a list of your achievements; write your success stories.  They do
not have to be big things; there are a lot of small but important achievements in our life.  
2.  Accept things you can"t change
     There are some things you cannot change, such as your background and your past.  So learn to accept them.  You will feel much relieved if you treat things you can"t change the way they deserve: just accept them, smile, and move on.
3.  Focus on your strengths
     Instead of focusing on your weaknesses, focus on your strengths.  You always have some strengths
which give you a unique person.  Recognize your strengths and build your life around them.
4.  Stop comparing yourself with others
     You are unique.  You can never be like ___________, and neither can other people be like you.  The way you measure your success is not determined by other people. Instead, it is determined by your own
life purpose.  You have everything you need to achieve your life purpose, so it"s useless to compare
yourself with others. 1.  What is the best title of the passage?(Please answer within 10 words. )
