READING
Read and translate the information about cyber cafes:
An internet café is an establishment that rents computers by the hour. Also called a "cybercafé," the first Internet cafes started in Europe in the mid-1990s and offered coffee and dessert like a regular coffee shop. Today's venues may provide computers only or also sell a variety of accessories and gadgets as well as coffee and food. In September, 1997, there were estimated to be more than 1,000 cybercafés internationally. By 2001, there were perhaps tens of thousands, with at least one in almost every small community in many countries. Internet cafés are located worldwide, and many people use them when traveling to access webmail and instant messaging services to keep in touch with family and friends. Apart from travelers, in many developing countries Internet cafés are the primary form of Internet access for citizens as a shared-access model is more affordable than personal ownership of equipment and/or software. Internet cafés are a natural evolution of the traditional cafes. Cafés started as places for information exchange, and have always been used as places to read the paper, send postcards home, play traditional or electronic games, chat to friends, find out local information. There are also Internet kiosks. These are Internet access points in public places like public libraries, airport halls, sometimes just for brief use while standing.
