                                                   American Way of Life
     Throughout their history, Americans have been people on the move. The early immigrants had
to travel to get to the New World. Once they arrived, they settled along the East Coast. But they
weren't content to stay there.   1   Later, settlers moved west to develop these new areas. As a result
of this westward migration, Americans eventually occupied the whole continent from the Atlantic to
the Pacific. Even today, Americans seem unable to stay in one place. Research says that the average
American moves every five years.
     Besides their habit of changing addresses, Americans are used to traveling. Some people go to
work daily in long-distance places. __2__ Most companies provide an annual vacation for their
employees, and people often use that time to travel. Some people just visit friends or relatives in
distant states. Others go on low-budget weekend outings and stay in economy motels. Those with
more expensive tastes choose fancy resorts and hotels.   3   Some travel in vehicles to camp out in
comfort while others "rough it" by sleeping in tents. 
         4   Why? For one thing, it's cheaper than traveling abroad and there's no language problem.
Besides, America offers plenty of tourist attractions. _5_ Nature lovers can enjoy beaches, mountains,
canyons, lakes and a wealth of natural wonders. As it is, the convenience of modern freeways, railways
and airplanes makes travel in America as easy as pie.
A. Families often plan their trips with the kids in mind.
B. Most Americans prefer to travel within their nation's borders.
C. Explorers and traders journeyed to the unknown western areas.
D. Major cities offer visitors large quantities of urban delights.
E. Many people ask traveling agencies to plan the trip for them.
F. Their jobs may even require them to take regular business trips.
G. For adventurous people, camping out in the great outdoors is appealing.

A Way of Life for Students

The Internet is a way of life for US college students, with research showing them to be one of the most connected groups.

A recent study by Harris Interactive and 360 Youths found that 93 percent of American college students visit the Internet, and this market is expected to grow from 15.2 million in 2003 to 16.4 million in 2007.

That is slow but it could be the result of the already high number of college Internet users.

About 88 percent of American college students own a computer, and more than half have broadband(寬帶)connections. Furthermore, 67 percent own cell phones and 36 percent use their mobile devices to visit the Internet.

Study findings are that 42 percent go online mainly to communicate socially, and 72 percent of college students check emails at least once a day, with 66 percent using at least two email addresses.

The most popular online social activity is forwarding messages to friends or family, with 37 percent of college students saying they do so.

The study also looked beyond the Internet surfing(沖浪)habits and into the buying habits of this group, and found them responsible for more than US $210 billion in sales last year alone.

College students have learned how to spend their money, with 93 percent saying low prices were important when shopping.

The study also showed that 65 percent make loan(貸款)payments;41 percent of freshmen have a credit card; and 79 percent of seniors have a credit card.

A significant number of charges on those credit cards are likely to be for entertainment and leisure expenses.
