About a decade ago, then-Republican
House leader Newt Gingrich raised a big stir when he implied that a mother's
drowning of her two children in South Carolina was the result of years of
permissive rule by the Democrats. His political enemies struck
back, and it became a major moment in the morality plays of the 1990s. Gingrich
is gone, relegated to the sidelines of the talking-head circuit. But after a
decade of his Republicans in control, the headlines don't seem all that
different. In the same month of an election in which a fifth or
so of the voters said they were most concerned about fuzzily defined "moral
values", Americans cringed at the news at home. A hunter slaughtering other
hunters in Wisconsin. A mother hacking off her child's limbs in Texas. A woman
locking two little girls in a storage unit in Maryland. Then, the sad spectacles
of out-of- control "athletes" and "fans" in hand-to-hand combat in Michigan and
South Carolina sullied the week leading into Thanksgiving. But in this season of
thankfulness, all of those episodes of failed civilization demand context. There
remain significant things to be thankful for. This can be said even in the
shadow of terrorism and an Iraqi War that has claimed the lives of more than 100
Americans and countless Iraqis just this month. Consider: The
brave and selfless 18% 19- and 20-somethings who have fought and died or were
maimed in Iraq and Afghanistan, including those who endured the hell of
Fallujah. Whether you believe in the war in Iraq or not, the pictures of mothers
and fathers, siblings and friends mourning over caskets at Arlington National
Cemetery deserve to be remembered this holiday season. Their sacrifice is
unmatched, and beyond our ability to repay. Remember them the next time you see
a foot- ball player flex his muscles at the 50-yard line or an entertainer
complain about not getting the respect he or she deserves.
Remember Pat Tillman, who quit the Arizona Cardinals football team to join
the military? He died in Afghanistan. That's real tragedy and sacrifice, not
some pro basketball player getting kicked off the court for a year for trying to
take a spectator's head off. The political system. OK, list your
grievances first: billionaires trying to buy the election of 2004; lawyers
cynically exploiting loopholes of a freshly passed campaign finance law; nasty
words flying on the Internet and talk TV. About as many people remain distressed
that President Bush won re-election as those who are glad he won. But despite
all these caveats, you'd also have to agree that much of the world still changes
leaders at the point of a gun or remains governed by blood or entitlement. Yet
this country just persevered through one of its most bitter, hard- fought
elections without violence or retribution. That must be worth something in these
uncertain times.

单选题Shopping has always been something of an impulse activity, in which objects that catch our fancy while strolling are immediately bought on a whim. Advertisers and sellers have taken advantage of this fact, carefully positioning inexpensive but attractive items on paths that we are most likely to cross, hoping that our human nature will lead to a greater profit for them. With the dawn of the Internet and its exploding use across the world, the same tactics apply.
Advertisers now place "banners", links to commercial web sites decorated with attractive pictures designed to catch our eyes while browsing the webs, on key web sites with heavy traffic. They pay top dollar for the right, thus creating profits for the hosting web site as well. These actions are performed in the hopes that during the course of our casual and leisurely web surfing, we"ll click on that banner that sparks our interest and thus, in theory, buy the products advertised.
Initial results have been positive. Web sites report a huge inflow of cash, both from the advertisers who tempt customers in with the banners and the hosting web sites, which are paid for allowing the banners to be put in place. As trust and confidence in Internet buying increases and information security is heightened with new technology, the volume of buying is increasing, leading to even greater profits.
The current situation, however, is not quite as optimistic. Just as magazine readers tend to unconsciously ignore advertisements in their favorite periodicals, web browsers are beginning to allow banners to slip their notice as well. Internet users respond to the flood of banners by viewing them as annoyances, a negative image that is hurting sales, since users are now less reluctant to click on those banners, preferring not to support the system that puts them in place. If Internet advertising is to continue to be a viable and profitable business practice, new methods will need to be considered to reinvigorate the industry.
With the recent depression in the technology sector and slowing economy, even new practices may not
do the trick
. As consumers are saving more and frequenting traditional real estate businesses over their Internet counterparts, the fate of Internet business is called into question. The coming years will be the only reliable indication of whether shopping on the world wide web is the wave of the future or simply an impulse activity whose whim has passed.

Distance learning has moved far away
from the traditional correspondence course, aimed at the individual student
working alone. The global reach of the Internet makes it possible to unite
geographically scattered students in a virtual classroom. Methods such as
multimedia, video-conferencing and the Internet will increasingly allow students
both to proceed at their own pace, and to interact with one another and their
teachers. Even without taking the technology to its limits, the
idea of education as a lifelong process is catching on throughout the
industrialized world. Already, working adults who pursue their studies part-time
make up roughly half of students taking college courses in the United
States. However, there is debate in scholar circles about how
far new technology should be used for teaching academic subjects in which
personal contacts between teacher and student are still vital. Britain's Open
University, for example, a world leader in distance education, has embraced
information technology cautiously, believing it to be no substitute for books
and the exchange of ideas at live tutorials and summer schools.
But the Open University is also moving with the tide. It has set up a
"knowledge media institute" to explore ways of adopting information technology.
Some teachers are concerned about this trend, arguing that the heavy investment
that students are expected to make in computer and communications equipment
contradicts the concept of "open" cost, of course, is and important factor in
many developing countries, where few people have computers or even phones.
{{U}}Rather than uniting the world, the new technologies could lead to societies
of information haves and have-nots.{{/U}}
