    <Paragraph position="0"> This paper presents an intuitive search system for casual or novice Chinese users on specific websites. Instead of describing the algorithmic portions of each component, we focus on illustrating the overall system design and how the integrated system works and serves the endusers. The presented system provides human intelligence to the user who desires to seek relevant information over Interact. It does not assume that the user receives any training in search and retrieval or has any prior experience in using Internet. The user can start his search with a general and vague term or idea. The integrated system will guide the user from a general search to a series of more specific searches until he is fully satisfied with the information returned. Our survey states that the existing search systems, especially those in the Chinese market, are still dominated by key term search mechanism. This integrated system presents a new paradigm. It provides a concept-driven search environment that allows the user to manipulate the semantic relationships between the original query terms with its associated terms. We have so far built two applications based on two specific domains. The preliminary results have demonstrated that the integration of a concept network, a query reformulator, a standard search algorithm, an auto summarizer, and an optional TTS engine indeed suits the current information seeking behavior and make search activities in websites more intuitive, as well as productive.</Paragraph>
