　　People usually have a positive experience when they first go online. But, (36)like any endeavor ––– traveling, cooking, or attending school – there are some risks. The online world, like the (37) rest of society, is made up of a (38) wide line of people. Most are decent and respectful, but some may be rude and insulting, (39) or even mean and exploitative. Children get a lot of (40) benefits from being online, but they can be (41) targets of crime and exploitation in this as in other environments. Trusting, curious, and (42) anxious to explore this new world and the relationship it brings, children need (43) parental supervision and common sense advice.

　　Although there have been some highly publicized cases of abuse involving the internet and online services, (44) reported cases are relatively infrequent. Of course, like most crimes against children, many cases go unreported, especially (45) if the child is engaged in an activity that he or she does not want to discuss with a parent. The fact that crimes are being committed online, however, (46) is not a reason to avoid these services.
