　　素材段落

　　The Internet has made it possible for individuals to get connected to information whenever they need it. At the touch of a button, tourists can learn almost anything they want to know about a city they are visiting. Local residents also benefit as they can locate facilitates, such as the nearest hospital or community center, in a matter of seconds. However, all the conveniences mentioned above were not possible before the Internet became part of our daily lives. Without the Internet, travelers would have to carry with them a heavy travel guide and local residents would frequently ask neighbors about community service information in person. As a consequence, the Internet plays an important role in our lives by bringing added convenience as well as improving our quality of life to a large extent.
