31、that celebrities are public property and that this invasion of privacy is to be expected“thats show business“, they say.

They have no head, brain, heart, eyes, ears or bones! They have a kind of body, called a “bell“. The bell

40、 is the big round part that looks like jelly. Inside it are nerves, which are all jellyfish needs to move to sense light. (63) When jellyfish find their food, these tentacles can shoot out poison to kill it. Underneath the bell is a mouth. (64) There are over 2,000 species, and new ones are still be

Millions of Internet users around the world are using a language that th

46、ey are developing by themselves. This new English, or Internet slang, is made up of new words such as “blog“; contractions such as “HMWK“ for “homework“; acronyms (words formed from first letters) such as “LOL“ for “laughing out loud“; and finally, symbols that represent emotions, like“:)“. Why do p

47、eople use Internet slang? The main reason has to do with speed. Internet chatters are usually in a hurry! They want to send their messages quickly.
