Dear Director Wang,
I, as a student of our university, would like to commend you for the additional computers that you have recently added to the computer rooms And I am writing to you to request that the Internet be installed in the dormitories.
We all know that the World Wide Web has become an increasingly more essential tool at university. Not only do professors require students to use the Internet for research, but much communication is done between professors and students through email as well. In addition, some professors are beginning to post their lecture notes online for students to review in their own time.
Thank you in advance for your favorable attention to my advice and I sincerely wish ever more students would enjoy our university like me. I am looking forward to your early reply.
Yours truly,
Li Ming

As is clearly depicted in the thought-provoking drawing, a fashionable lady who is staring at the screen with shocked expression wearing on cheeks. The most striking feature is the lengthy Alipay bill, which can almost be spread as long as two meters. The caption above implies that we are expected to keep away from Taobao and cherish your income.
The objective of the drawer is to display that utmost attention should be paid to shopping online, which has exerted profound impact on the daily life of the ordinary individuals. Firstly, we can easily recognize its advantages: e-commerce, which is extremely convenient, can save us a great amount of precious time and we can buy products everywhere we need. Secondly, online trading is by no means without its limitations: we may be cheated by some online retailers, which might be a potential threat to our bank accounts.
Given the analyses above, it is imperative for us to take drastic measures. For example, we are supposed to enhance the awareness of residents that rational purchasing is conducive to our income management. Only in this way, can we maximize the merits and minimize the demerits of online purchasing.
