Videos play smoothly, complex websites load quickly，and files download much faster than ten years agoAnd the files are much bigger tooTheres a hidden problem：You have to live near enough to a major city to get broadband Internet. If you dont，its slow dial-up access for you. And for those living really far out，there may be no Internet access at a11Technology experts often talk about the “last mile” problem， which refers to the difficulty of bringing Internet access to remote locationsIn cities and suburbs(郊区)，its relatively easy to provide access for everyoneIt is much more difficult to deliver access to those living far from cities，especially in developing countriesInternet service providersfor their part，have been reluctant to provide access to sparsely(稀疏地)populated areasThe handful of Internet users they would reach wouldnt cover the expense.But every year, technological advancements allow of more and more Internet users. Most broadband connections today run over existing cable TV and telephone lines although these technologies arent available everywhereSome companies have delivered the Internet over standard power lines. Advancements in cheaper more efficient fiber optics cables(光纤电缆)promise to bring extremely fast Internet connections to more usersStillthe“last mile”problem remains hard to deal withThere will always be somewhere that doesnt have an affordable broadband connectionBut someday that might not matterIf the rapid progress in cell phone technology is any indication，it may not be too long before an Internet connection simply follows you wherever you go.29.

A recent report，which examined in detail the reading habits of primary-school childrenshowed that even seven-year-old boys and girls have clear views about what they want to read. Girls，in general，read more，and far more girls than boys preferred reading stories. Boys were showing a taste for the more instant appeal of picture stories，or else books about their hobbiesThese tastes continue unchanged until the children are teenagers. Apparently girls read more in general，but more fiction in particular .You could say that there are more opportunities for girls to read fiction：magazines encourage the fiction habit in girls in their early teens，and by their late teens they have probably moved on to the adult womens magazinesTeenage boys tend to buy magazines about their hobbies：motorcycles，heavy transport and to onAdult reading tastes are also the subject of researchAgain the number of women who read for pleasure is considerably higher than the number of men. It seems that the majority of women still want love storiesThere has also been some analysis of what men actually read Apparently only 38 percent of men read anything，but 50 percent of what they read is fiction in the form of action-packed(内容丰富有趣的)stories of space or gunmen33.
