Why is the Internet boom similar to the gold rush in the US during the 1800s?為什麼網路盛行與19th的淘金熱很類似呢?(1800s，意指19世紀，詳見末段說明)(A) They both started in California. 他們都來自加利福尼亞-->沒提到(B) Many people made a lot of money through both of them.許多人透過這兩個賺很多錢(沒提到)(C) They both have become a powerful force in communication and business.他們在溝通與經濟上很有力量-->沒提到(D) There’s much misleading information on how to get rich quick.-->有很多關於如何快速致富的誤導性信息(正確)Since the early 1990s, the Internet has become a powerful force in both communication and business. Some people have compared the Internet business boom with the gold rush thinking in the US in the 1800s. And like the gold rush of that time, there has been a lot of exaggeration and oversimplification about how easy it is to “get rich quick.”關於“快速致富”的容易程度，有很多誇大和過分簡化的說法。補充：「1800s」 也是指80年代嗎？答案也是否定的。寫成 「1800」 加上小寫字母 「s」 的這個表達讀作 「the eighteen hundreds」，它多指19世紀，也就是1800年至1899年的這段時間。不過，在這裡需要提醒大家的是，也有人把 「the eighteen hundreds」 這段時間定義為19世紀的頭十年，也就是1800年到1809年的這段時間。來源:https://elt.rti.org.tw/q-and-a/decades_centuries/
