A lot of people are crazy doing shopping through the Internet now. Why is it so popular? There are some reasons. First, more and more people have their own computers and their computers can be joined with the Internet. So it is possible for many of them to do shopping through the Internet. Second, shopping through the Internet can save them some money and a lot of time. Third, they don’t need to go to the shop themselves. Because of these good facts, few people refuse it.

On the other hand, some people don’t like this new way of shopping. They are worried about the safety of shopping on line. Customers(顧客) can only see the pictures of products on the Internet. And they can’t enjoy the pleasure of buying things in large supermarkets or some wonderful stores. These are the reasons why they do not like it.

But I think more and more people will like this new kind of shopping in the future.

1.Many people are interested in shopping on line.

2.Shopping on line can only save money.

3.Customers can not see the pictures of products on the Internet.
