　　Fifteen Minutes of Pie

　　The Everson family - Mr. and Mrs. Everson, their sons Ethan and Jason, and daughters Hannah and Emily - were gathered around their dining room table finishing up Sunday dinner.

　　"What's for dessert, Mom?" Ethan asked as he helped his mother clear away the last of the plates.

　　"Your dad baked an apple pie." Mrs. Everson answered. "Yummy!" exclaimed Ethan's sister Emily from her high chair at the end of the table, clapping her hands.

　　"Well, I would like fifteen minutes of pie, please." Ethan said with a big grin as he sat back down at the table.

　　"Fifteen minutes pie, what does that mean?" asked his brother Jason, who was two years younger than Ethan. He was very confused.

　　"Mr. Layel is teaching us about time in school." Ethan replied. He was in the second grade and they were just starting to learn how to tell the time on a clock. "He told us that the clock can be divided into four fifteen minute sections, like the pieces of a pie. Fifteen times four is sixty and there are sixty minutes in an hour."

　　"Very good, son!" Mr. Everson said smiling.

　　"So then may I have fifteen minutes of pie, please?" Ethan asked again as his mother placed the dessert on the table. Hands on her hips, Mrs. Everson looked at her son. "How about you have ten minutes of pie and save some for the rest of us!" she answered.

　　The Internet

　　We are busy talking about and using the Internet, but how many of us know the history of the Internet?

　　Many people are surprised when they find that the Internet was set up in the 1960s. At that time, computers were large and expensive. Computer network didn't work well. If one computer in the network broke down, then the whole network stopped. So a new network system(系統) had to be set up. It should be good enough to be used by many different computers. If part of the network was not working, information could be sent through another part. In this way the computer network system would keep on working all the time.

　　At first the Internet was only used by the government, but in the 1970s, universities, hospitals and banks were allowed to use it, too. However, computers were still very expensive and the Internet was difficult to use. By the start of the 1990s, computers became cheaper and easier to use. Scientists had also developed software that made "surfing" the Internet more convenient (方便的).

　　Today it is easy to get online and it is said that millions of people use the Internet every day. Sending e-mails is more and more popular among students.
