With the Internet, people can send and receive e-mails. On the Internet, people can skim over news. Using the Telnet, the user anywhere on the Internet can log into any other machine on which he has an account. It is possible to use the FTP program to copy files from one machine on the Internet to another. But the Internet also brings us troubles. Internet use seems to cause a fall in psychological (心理的) health, according to research at Carnegie Mellon University. Even people who spent just a few hours a week on the Internet experienced more depression and loneliness than those who logged on less often, the two-year study showed. And it wasnt that people who were already feeling bad spent more time on the Internet, but that using the Net actually seemed to cause the bad feelings. Researchers are puzzling over the results, which were completely opposite to what they had expected. They expected that the Net would prove socially healthier than television, since the Net allows users to choose their information and to communicate with others. The fact that Internet use reduces time used for family and friends may be the reason for the drop in health, researchers said. Faceless, bodiless “virtual” (虚拟的) communication may be less psychologically satisfying than actual conversations, and the relationships formed through it may not be so deep. Another possibility is that exposure to the wider world through the Net makes users less satisfied with their lives. “But its important to remember this is not about the technology; its about how it is used,” said one of the researchers. “It really points to the need for considering social factors (因素) when you design new inventions.”5.

But last week, Alex, an African parrot, died, obviously of natural causes, said Dr Irene Pepperberg, an expert at Brandeis University and Harvard who studied and worked with the parrot for most of its life and published reports of his progress in scientific journals. The parrot was 31. Scientists have long debated whether any other species can develop the ability to learn human language. Alexs language ability was, in some ways, more surprising than the efforts of those animals that have been taught, like Koko, the gorilla (猩猩) trained by Penny Patterson at the Gorilla Foundation in Woodside, or Washoe, another gorilla studied by R. Allen and Beatrice Gardner at the University of Nevada in the 1960s and 1970s. When Dr Pepperberg, who was then a doctoral student in chemistry at Harvard, found Alex was good at remembering words in a pet store in 1977 and bought it, scientists had little expectation that birds could learn to communicate with humans. Most of the research had been done on pigeons, and was not promising. But by using novel methods of teaching, Dr Pepperberg taught Alex to learn about 150 words, which he could put into categories. He could count small numbers and tell colors and shapes. “The work changed the way we think of bird brains,” said Diana Reiss, a psychologist at Hunter College who works with dolphins and elephants. “We used to look down upon those birds, but now we look at those brains at least Alexs with some awe.”10. Alex is very famous because _.A. it died of a strange diseaseB. it lived longer than any other parrotC. it hosted many famous TV showsD. it has a special talent in learning human language11. What was the direct reason why Dr Pepperberg bought Alex?A. He found it was good at remembering words.B. He liked its colors and shapes.C. He wanted to do research on birds.D. Diana Reiss asked him to do that.12. What does the underlined word “novel” mean in the last paragraph?A. Special.B. New. C. Great.D. Unique.13. According to the last paragraph, we can learn that _.A. people used to think dolphins were the cleverestB. Alexs ability of learning human language has changed some researchers ideas about birdsC. elephants are better at learning human languageD. birds great ability in learning human language has already been noticed before14. What would be the best title for this passage?A. Who are cleverer, birds or gorillas?B. A famous talking bird died.C. Have you ever talked with a bird?D. The keeper of a famous bird.A home computer not only helps children master the old ways of learning, but also opens up possibilities that simply arent available in traditional education. Some software, for example, allows kids to make decisions and see the results in different situations. The World Wide Web encourages young minds to move easily from link to link, topic to topic. The best software draws children into learning by making them curious what if I click on this picture, drag this over here, visit that website? Knowing how to use a computer also encourages a childs confidence. Kids figure out quickly that computers are powerful, and mastering the machine makes them feel grown-up. In turn, feeling confident on a computer often translates to academic (学术的) confidence. Researchers have found that attitudes toward writing, for example, improve when students write on a computer. Perhaps most importantly, computers can enrich family life. Forget the idea that computer kids are separated. Children like to use the computer with adults and other kids, asking questions and comparing results. “The Internet is a unique opportunity to bring resources home,” notes Susan Haugland, PhD, Cape Girardeau, Mo., author of ： . Although the benefits of computers are real, they have disadvantages, too. Kids can lose their way, wasting hours on mindless software or violent games. Just as parents have always helped children make good choices about everything from friends to food, books to TV, now we must make sure they get the best out of computers.15. The passage is mainly talking about _.A. the disadvantages of childrens using computersB. the advantages of childrens using computersC. the development of computersD. the fact using computers makes children lose their way16. Which of the following is NOT an advantage of a home computer?A. It provides new ways of learning.B. It encourages childrens confidence.C. It can enrich family life.D. Kids can play violent games on it.17. What effects do computers have on family life?A. They reduce the connection between family members.B. They destroy the relationship between parents and kids.C.

According to the last paragraph, we can learn that we should _.A. let children use computers freelyB. forbid children to use computers in their spare timeC. permit children to use any software they likeD. help children make good use of the computersMy Grandpa has arthritis (关节炎), and its getting harder and harder for him to do certain things. When I was a little girl, my grandpa would play this game with me. He would tell me to hold out my hand, and in it he would place a shiny silver quarter. Wow, I thought I had the world sitting in my hand. He would tell me that if I could keep it away from him, I could have it. I knew that I couldnt keep it away from him, but I would always try. Then he would tell me that if I could get it away from him, then he would give it back to me. I remember feeling so small compared with him, and I also remember feeling embarrassed because I knew there was no way that I could get that quarter from him. But I tried. I would climb down from my chair, with defeat weighing heavily on my back. “Bug?” hed say. “Ya Grandpa?” Id reply, trying to sound as sad as possible. “Here.” There in his outstretched hand would be my quarter. It always ended the same. He would always hand it over. I always knew that I would have to wait until the game was over to get my quarter, because he had so much pride and self-worth that he couldnt lose to a 4-year-old girl. After I grew up, when we played the game again, I never wanted to defeat him. I just wanted to be with him. I loved to hear him tell me what I did wrong, and how to get it right the next time, and I loved the pride in his voice. 19. In which order did the following things happen during the game?a. Grandpa placed a shining silver quarter in my hand.b. Grandpa told me if I could get it away from him, I could keep it.c. He gave the quarter over to me and I got it.d. Grandpa told me if I could keep it away from him, I could keep it.A.
