閱讀短文, 根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容回答問(wèn)題。(共10分,每小題2分)

It's March, 2050.
Frank and Mary Smith wake up in their comfortable house in the morning and switch on the bedroom computer to get the latest news. They used to read the Times, but changed to electronic newspapers many years ago.                                                
There is the usual news about space: another space flight has returned from Mars and scientists have discovered a new planet. Then they turn to business news: the US dollar has risen greatly in Shanghai, one of the world's leading business centers. Mary tells the computer to buy 5,000 dollars, and there is a quick response that it has been done.
As they watch the screen, Mary orders one of the household robots to make coffee for them. Frank disappears into the study to join a video conference with his partners around the world. He is a computer engineer, working for several companies. This is his third job: he used to be in marketing and then television.
Mary has a quick look at the shopping channels - the usual selection of electric cars, household robots and cheap travel offers - before picking up the video phone to talk to her assistant. She also has a job and she is doing medical research. Both she and Frank used to have an office desk in London, but in 2014 they decided to move to the seaside and work from home.
Frank and Mary have one daughter, Louise, who also has her own workstation at home. She goes to school only one day a week, mainly to play with other students. Classrooms disappeared in 2030 because there was no longer any need for them: communications systems have made it much easier to learn at home.
Louise, now thirteen, is studying Chinese at present, which has become a world language as
important as English. Louise has many Chinese friends. They communicate by computer.
According to the family doctor, Louise will live to at least 130. Her wish is to work for a
few decades (十年) and then spend her time on music and painting.
小題1:Do Frank and Mary get the latest news on the computer in the morning?
小題2:Who makes coffee for Mary and Frank?
小題3:What does Frank do?
小題4:What are the two world languages in 2050?
小題5:What do you think of Louise's life in 2050? Why?

小題1:Yes, they do.
小題2:One of the household robots.
小題3:He is a computer engineer.
小題4:Chinese and English.
小題5:I think her life in 2050 is convenient/ comfortable  because computers can help her with a lot of work.

試題分析:這篇短文中作者描繪了2050年時(shí),一家人的生活。那時(shí)的人們生活中最重要的幫手就是電腦,很多工作都可以由電腦控制的機(jī)器人來(lái)做,學(xué)生們的學(xué)習(xí)也將變得輕松簡(jiǎn)單。
小題1:根據(jù)There is the usual news about space:及下文描述,可知他們從電腦上得到了最新消息,故答:Yes, they do.
小題2:根據(jù)As they watch the screen, Mary orders one of the household robots to make coffee for them.描述可知是機(jī)器人太替他們做家務(wù)。故答:One of the household robots.
小題3:根據(jù)He is a computer engineer, working for several companies.聯(lián)系上文可知he指的是弗蘭克,故答:He is a computer engineer.
小題4:根據(jù)is studying Chinese at present, which has become a world language as important as English.描述可知在2050年的兩種世界性語(yǔ)言是英語(yǔ)和中文。故答:Chinese and English.
小題5:通過(guò)閱讀短文可知?jiǎng)⒁姿挂恢苤蝗ヒ淮螌W(xué)校,作業(yè)也很少,生活上不用做家務(wù)。他的生活應(yīng)該是方便舒適的。故答:I think her life in 2050 is convenient/ comfortable  because computers can help her with a lot of work.
點(diǎn)評(píng):本題中個(gè)別小題不能直接從文中找到答案,需要自己根據(jù)相關(guān)內(nèi)容分析總結(jié)。一定要弄懂全文后再動(dòng)手解答問(wèn)題。書(shū)寫(xiě)答案時(shí),注意首字母大寫(xiě),因?yàn)槭腔卮饐?wèn)句,即使只有一個(gè)單詞也是一個(gè)句子。為避免不必要的錯(cuò)誤,只要能使用原文的就盡量使用原文回答問(wèn)題,即使自己總結(jié)也盡量使用短句。同時(shí)并注意人稱和數(shù)的變化。

Mr. Ma, a famous mental(心理的)doctor from Beijing once said at an important meeting, “Now many young students can have problems with their minds.

We are all busy talking about and using the Internet, but how many of us know about the history of the Internet?
  Many people are surprised when they find that the Internet was set up(建立) in the 1960s. At that time, computers were large and expensive. Computer networks(網(wǎng)絡(luò)) didn’t work well. If one computer in the network broke down, then the whole network stopped. So a new network system(系統(tǒng)) had to be set up. It should be good enough to be used by many different computers. If part of the network was not working, information could be sent through another part. In this way the computer network system would keep on working all the time.
  At first, the Internet was only used by the government, but, in the early 1970s, universities, hospitals and banks were allowed to use it too. However, computers were still expensive and the Internet was difficult to use. By the start of the 1990s, computers become cheaper and easier to use. Scientists had also developed software(軟件) that made “surfing(瀏覽)” the Internet more convenient (方便).
  Today it is easy to get on-line and it is said that millions of people use the Internet every day. Sending e-mail is more and more popular among students.
The Internet has now become one of the most important parts of people’s life.
