The Internet has opened up a whole new online world for us to meet，chat and go where we’ve never been before．But just as in face-to-face communication，there are some rules of behavior that should be followed when on line． 1. Imagine how you’d feel if you were in the other person’s shoes．
For anything you’re about to send：ask yourself,“Would I say this to the person’s face?”If the answer is no，rewrite and reread． 2.
If someone in the chat room is rude to you，your instinct(本能)is to fire back in the same manner．But try not to do so． 3. If it was caused by a disagreement with another member，try to fix the situation by politely discussing it．Remember to respect the beliefs and opinions of others in the chat room．
4. Offer advice when asked by newcomers，as they may not be sure what to do or how to communicate．When someone makes a mistake，whether it’s a stupid question or all unnecessarily long answer，be kind about it．If it’s a small mistake，you may not need to say anything．Even if you feel strongly about it，think twice before saying anything．Having good mariners yourself doesn’t give you license to correct everyone else．5. At the same time，if you find you are wrong．be sure to correct yourself and apologize to those that you have offended．
It is not polite to ask others personal questions such as their age，sex and marital status．Unless you know the person very well，and you are both comfortable with sharing personal information，don’t ask such questions．
A．The basic rule is simple：treat others in the same way you would want to be treated．
B．Everyone was new to the network once．
C．Repeat the process till you feel sure that you’d feel comfortable saying the words to the person’s face．
D．It’s natural that there are some people who speak rudely or make mistakes online.
E．When you send short messages to a person online，you must say something beautiful to hear.
F.You should either ignore the person，or use your chat software to block their messages.
G．If you do decide to tell someone about a mistake，point it out politely．
What is the first thing you notice when you walk into a shop? The products displayed(展示)at the entrance? Or the soft background music?
But have you ever noticed the smell? Unless it is bad，the answer is likely to be no．But while a shop’s scent may not be outstanding compared with sights and sounds，it is certainly there．And it is providing to be an increasing powerful tool in encouraging people to purchase．
A brand store has become famous for its distinctive scent which floats through the fairly dark hall and out to the entrance，Via scent machines．A smell may be attractive but it may not just be used for freshening air．One sports goods company once reposed that when it first introduced scent into its stores，customers’intension to purchase increased by 80 percent．
When it comes to the best shopping streets in Pairs，scent is just as important to a brand’s success as the quality of its window displays and goods on sales．That is mainly because shopping is a very different experience to what it used to be．
Some years ago，the focus for brand name shopping was on a few people with sales assistants’disproving attitude and don’t-touch-what-you-can’t afford displays．Now the rise of electronic commerce(e-commerce)has opened up famous brands to a wider audience．But while e-shops can use sights and sounds，only bricks-and-mortar stores(实体店)can offer a full experience from the minute customers step through the door to the moment they leave．Another brand store seeks to be much more than a shop，but rather a destination．And scent is just one way to achieve this．
Now a famous store uses complex man-made smell to make sure that the soft scent of baby powder floats through the kid department，and coconut(椰子)scent in the swimsuit section．A department store has even opened a new lab，inviting customers on a journey into the store’s windows to smell books，pots and drawers，in search of their perfect scent．

They wear the latest fashions with the most up-to-date accessories(配饰).Yet these are not girls in their teens or twenties but women in their sixties and seventies．A generation which would once only wear old-fashioned clothes is now favoring the same high street looks worn by those half their age.
Professor Julia Twiggy，a social policy expert，said，“Women over 75 are are shopping for clothes more frequently than they did when they were young in the 1960s，In the 1960s buying a coat for a woman was a serious matter．It was all expensive item that they would purchase only every three or four years—now you can pick one up at the supermarket whenever you wish to．Fashion is a lot cheaper and people get tired of things more quickly．”Professor Twiggy analyzed family expending data and found that while the percentage of spending on clothes and shoes by women had stayed around the same—about 5 or 6 percent of spending，the amount of clothes bought had risen sharply．
The professor said，“Clothes are now 70 percent cheaper than they were in the 1960s because of the huge expansion of production in the Far East．In the 1960s Leeds was the heart of the British fashion industry and that was where most of the clothes came from，but now almost all of our clothes are sourced elsewhere．Everyone is buying more clothes but in general we are not spending more money on them，”
Fashion designer Angela Barnard，who runs her own fashion business in London，said older women were much more affected by celebrity style than in previous years．She said，“When people see stars such as Judi Dench and Helen Mirren looking attractive and fashionable in their sixties，they want to follow them．Older women are much more aware of celebrities. There’s also the boom in TV programmers showing people how they can change their look，and many of my older customers do yoga to stay in shape well in their fifties．When I started my business a few years ago，my older customers tended to be very rich，but now they are what I would call ordinary women．My own mother is 61 and she wears the latest fashions in a way she would never have done ten years ago．”

Instagram is a fast，beautiful and fun way to share your life with friends and family．Take a picture or video，choose a filter to transform its look and feel．and then post to Instagram—it’s that easy．You can even share to Facebook．Twitter and more．It’s a new way to see the world．So many photos of food are contained on Instagram—now a pop-up diner in London is taking advantage of this new trend by letting people settle the bill for their meals simply by uploading photos of their dishes to social networks．
I always thought people’s taking pictures of their food was kind of silly，but at this new pop-up restaurant in the UK，I’d probably do it too．“The Picture House”is the world’s first pay-by-photo restaurant—yon order，click a photo of the food，share on Instagram and eat for free!
The testaurant belongs to frozen food giant(巨人)Birds Eye，who came up with the idea to cash in on people’s addiction with photographing food and sharing the pictures online．They conducted a survey and found out that more than half of the British population regularly took pictures of their meals．So they realized it was a better way to advertise their new dining range．
The pop-up diner was open in Soho，London for three days in May，and is now moving to other major UK cities．They serve two-course meals that customers don’t have to pay for，if they photo and Instagram it.
The restaurant is a part of Birds Eye’s “Food for Life”campaign，a new marketing project that aims at changing the way people look at frozen food．“Taking photos of food enables people to show off and to share their mealtime moments—from the everyday to the special，”said marketing director Margaret Jobling．
The reaction to the Picture House has been great so far And the pay-by-picture concept has proven to be an effective way．Alternative payment methods are actually gaining popularity among a lot of businesses．Last year in a care in Germany customers pay by how much time they spend there，not by what they eat．

B．create a new social media trend
C．attract more customers
D．reward the regular customers
