If you are not happy with China’s high Internet fees（费用）and slow speed（速度）, you are not alone . So is Premier Li Keqiang . On April 14 , he said in a meeting that the government（政府）should speed up the Internet and lower the fees .

“ The first question people ask at a new place is ‘ Is there WI-FI ?’ because Internet service fees are too high , ” said Premier Li. According to recent survey by CCTV , the average（平均）cost of 1 GB mobile Internet data per month in China is 100 yuan , but it is only 60 yuan in the US and 40 in Japan .

To improve Internet service , the key is to build more fiber（光纤）networks . Through them, we can send texts , pictures and videos across the world in less than a second , which offer high speed Internet . Besides（除此之外）, the lack（缺乏）of market competition is another problem .
