There are some more useful suggestions that I've already experienced and can help you to have a better result. I firmly believe that Mr. Google is the best teacher I've ever had. Sometimes you are looking for a very special result; the search engine helps you and suggests you the search sentences that some people used them and find the answer; Follow this suggestions. If you are looking for picture, video, doc, pdf; always use .pdf or .rar as a keyword. Always know what you are looking for.
The following true or false question, where could we find the answer in the article ?
3. Words like ‘an’ are unhelpful in a search. ans : false
4. If your keyword could refer to a lot of different things, you can't avoid getting a long list of results. ans : yes
6. Filter software is especially important for image searches. ans : false

I always surf internet whenerver I want to know something. These days we can find all by clicking on the internet. It can safe time . We can also study many kind of subjects from website and Youtube . But make sure u dont waste ur time on internet by surfing unimportant things.
I always search information about my homeworks. Sometimes I search information about soccer. Finally I search social network on the internet
Ohh... I always use my laptop to search information about my homework, also I search news of the life.
The Internet is a fast way to search information, but this information not always is true. So the people should search information in different sites and specify what search. The person too he can be most specifies with the words that writte.

Dear boemietv!
This is an article for B1 readers, if you find it quite easy why not have a go at our B2 level? Here's one to try called Are celebrities bad for you? or you could try our A Walk in the Park in our Easy Reading section. I hope you enjoy them :)

Generally I search for 2 things : learn something new or to search for a job and Here I am in the first and I've never succeeded in the second ... I hope I'd do soon
Most of time I search for books to learn English
Most of time, I search for healthy food with less calories because I am in diet .
oh you are the same as my friend but I think that you should spend more time in going outside or playing sports
after summer,my friend has changed much :))
Searches for schoolwork.
I often have projects for my classes where I have to research stuff and make projects. I use the internet at that point. I also sometimes read articles.
This tips are great! I search for books to read.
The text gave me very good tipps. Although I already knew the most, it was very helpful. Like the short text says, dont believe everything you read on the Internet! For example, Wikipedia is not always true, because everyone is alowed to add something. Therefor I think, sometimes we should search in a library and not on the Internet.
Hi Kity
I totally agree with you. BTW, I've got questions....
Recently I'm thinking..., the more we rely on the Internet (social media) where we can't believe everything we read and see, the more we feel hopeless for trust and bond. How someone can be right in the head and get along with such a fake community where no one is responsible for others as well as for oneself? I might have ten thumbs, but I think what we learn at school is a part of the pursuit of truth in the world we actually live. What do you think, Kity? How do you handle the issue? Please don't advise me to get a little off altogether!!
Really usefull tips, i would also recomend use an add blocking extension for the search engine, to prevent anoying or distracting pop ups
Thank you for the tips.
I search english courses, piano courses, and my homeworks.
Recently I rely on searching for any information on the internet. But the quickness and the simplicity make me feel my ability of memorization is degenerating!?
