The Hunt for Internet Connections Might Be Over Soon
So far, two buses in the Coachella Valley Unified School District have Wi-Fi technology. The district is still working on how to best use the technology on buses.
The hunt for after-school Internet connections needed to do homework might soon be over for some of the nation’s poorest students.
The Federal Communications Commission voted Thursday to include broadband connections in a $1.8 billion federal program that subsidizes telephone services for low-income people. This program isn’t reserved for families with school-aged children, but supporters say the change will inevitably help the neediest students get online at home.
FCC Commissioner Jessica Rosenworcel said the measure to increase Internet access will help solve "the cruelest part of the digital divide."
"School-aged kids without broadband access at home are not only unable to complete their homework—they enter the job market with a serious handicap," she said. "And that loss is more than individual. It’s a loss to the collective human capital and shared economic future that we need to address."
Meanwhile, some Internet safety experts warned that we should be cautious about kids’ privacy protection. Criminologist Professor David Wilson from Birmingham City University said, "Children’s privacy can be greatly harmed by the Internet. Some websites store information. Some ask them to fill in information which can be sold to other sites for commercial purposes."

答案
The Internet—A Blessing or Curse? Believing that the Internet is not only essential for students to do their homework, but also for their future job hunting, the authorities in the US are endeavoring to work out the problems of some poor students’ inaccessibility to the Internet. However, some experts warn that the Internet poses a risk of harming students’ privacy. Is the Internet a good thing or an evil thing? In my opinion, the Internet is beneficial for students when it is used appropriately. The Internet is good for students. First, students can collect many kinds of information via the Internet. When students find something interesting in the book but cannot get more information from their teacher, they can search the Internet after class to find more details by themselves. Second, the Internet keeps students updated with what is happening all over the world. Just by browsing the web-page, students can read a lot of news. They can also type on some key words to search and follow any affair on the Internet. They don’t have to search piles oi" newspapers and thus save much time for study. In one word, the Internet facilitates students’ lives when it is used reasonably. Now more and more students are becoming aware of the convenience and the importance of using the Internet.
