Question

   If you receive an email that looks like something like this： ARE YOU GOING TO CLASS TODAY? How do you feel by reading this message? Why did the sender use all capital (大写) letters? Was he or she angry or did that person just forget to turn off the “Caps Lock” on the keyboard? The fact is that this email is usually the way that people shout online. Knowing when to and when not to use capital letters is just one example of online etiquette—often called “netiquette”. Virginia Shea5s book Netiquette lists a basic set of Dos and Don^s for communicating suitably with others on the Internet. The following are some of her suggestions.

    First always remember that you are sending messages to a real person not just to a computer. Don’t type anything that you won’t say to anyone. Also remember that the person who receives your message cannot hear the tone of your voice or see the expression on your face so make sure your meaning is clear.

    Don’t do anything online that you won’t do in real life. Don’t take anything without paying for it unless it’s free. Don’t use information that someone else has written and say it’s yours. Don’t read other people’s emails—you won t open your nextdoor neighbour’s mailbox and read his mad right? Do share your knowledge of the Internet with others. It s a big place with lots of information and there are many new things to discover.

    Remember that people judge (判断) you by your words as well as your actions so do try to write well. Good writing skills as well as correct grammar and spelling do matter. Send polite and wellwritten email messages to others. If you're uncertain about how to spell a word or which phrase to use look it up. There are lots of helpful books and websites.

    It’s okay to show your ideas online in forums (论坛) like chat rooms or message boards but don t start fighting with people. “Flame wars” in online discussions can be interesting to read but they are often unfair to other members of the group. Express your opinions but remember that fighting online or offline is just not suitable.

    When you're online just as in "real" life try to respect other people's space privacy and feelings. Remember you are not the only one travelling on this highway!
