Much has been written about the wonders (奇妙之处；奇观) of the World Wide Web. There are countless (数不尽的) articles telling us how the Internet has made our lives more convenient. We no longer (不再) have to wait in line (排队) or carry cash around when we go shopping. We can get the most updated information(最新的信息) from large databases.We can download software, documents, and images whenever we need them.
