     The good points of cybercourtship are as follows. Meeting online makes it easier to get know someone because online there are fewer of the inhibition that normally go with visual contacts. Then people can meet in virtual reality and communicate the process of first love without going through awkward moment in the traditional face-to-face flirtation sequence. Beside, in cyberspace, the boundaries between people's thought quickly became very "permeable" and it can be easy to from a quick, intense bond online.

     The problens of cybercourtship are as follows. In cyberapace it becomes hard to control the interaction because online communication happens very quickly and is based solely on written words without any physical feedback from body language. Therefore it is much easier to misunderstand, upset, and insult the receiver, and likewise, become bothered by the message. Besides, cyberspace connections without all the difficult effort of the actual relationship turns out to be a disappointment in the end.

     I choose Question 1.

If we intend to eat various kinds of foods and organic foods, supermarkets and food companies will try to provide such foods. Then,  farmers will begine to grow many kinds of local crops so that they can get more profit. As a result, the diversity in the nature is encouraged.

     I don't want to take a trip with Goliath Safaris,because I think that there are many scary places,and many fierce animals.I am scared of crocodiles,snakes and so on.
     Besides I don't want to take malaria pills for as long as eight weeks.I'm afraid of getting bad condition due to the wide gap in temperature between days and nights.
     Though I think adventure is exciting,I prefere more peaceful places to the place such as Zimbabwe.
