It’s lunchtime.You’re hungry and want to get your favorite meal in the restaurant,but there is a queue of people nearly reaching the door. Don’t worry-in cyber world (網(wǎng)絡(luò)世界),you can get your meal just by a few clicks.

“Shopping has never been so easy. With just a single click on your mouse, anything that you order online can be taken to your door in no time,” said Bian Jing, who is twenty years old.She took part in an online survival (生存) competition held in Beijing. Each competitor had to go online and buy enough food and drink to last them for 100 hours using the little money given. “I don’t want to spend too much time shopping, so I do it online rather than in an ordinary (普通的) store,” said a girl from a middle school. “It’s easy to find the things you want online as they have catalogues. Shoppers who go online can also find lower prices and wider choices of things they want to buy.

But many teachers and parents are worried that online shopping is becoming too popular.

“It’s not a good way for middle school students to spend their money,” said a teacher. “I don’t like them to shop online.” As all the students’ money is from their parents, it’s said that they aren’t ready to pay for what they have bought online.” There’s also the danger that they’ll lose the money at online stores that just want to cheat (欺騙) shoppers,” one of the teachers said.

Most parents, though, don’t want to pay the bills when their children spend too much on the Internet.” I hate having to pay unexpected bills,” said one father. “But my son always surprises me with them”
