Question

Teachers say the digital age has had a good influence - and a not-so-good influence - on this generation of American teenagers．More than 2,000 teachers took an online survey．Three-quarters of the teachers said the Internet and digital search tools have had a "mostly positive" effect on their students' research habits and skills．But 64 percent said the technologies "do more to distract（使 - - - ---分心） students than to help them academically．" And 87 percent agreed that these technologies are creating an "easily distracted generation with short attention spans．"

The Pew Internet Project did the survey with the National Writing Project．Judy Buchanan is the vice director of the National Writing Project and a co-author of the report．Ms．Buchanan says digital research tools are helping students learn more and faster．"Teachers really favor these tools because they are ways to make some of the learning exciting and engaging．Young people favor these tools．The goal is to really help them become creators of meaningful content, and not just sort of consumers．"

But one problem the survey found is that many students lack digital literacy．They trust too muck of the information they find on the Internet．Judy says these students haven't developed the skills to determine the quality of online information．"It's something that really has to be taught and paid attention to．Because in a world in which things happen quickly, you do need to step back, reflect and analyze the information you have．"

Another problem is blamed on something that might not seem like a problem at all: being able to quickly find information online．Teachers say the result is a reduction in the desire and ability of their students to work hard to find answers．They say students are overly dependent on search engines and do not make enough use of printed books or research libraries．

Many teachers are also concerned that the Internet makes it easy for students to copy work done by others instead of using their own abilities．

試題分析: 本文是一篇調查結果，介紹了電子產(chǎn)品給教學帶來了好處的同時也帶來了一些問題。比如，因為缺少識別虛假和真實信息的能力，學生們很容易受到不好的影響；同時，調查還發(fā)現(xiàn)學生們也會因為在網(wǎng)上容易查到答案而不愿意努力學習。

1.D主旨大意題。文章開頭介紹了調查的結果Teachers say the digital age has had a good influence - and a not-so-good influence - on this generation of American teenagers．然后在下文再進行詳細的敘述，故答案選D。

2.A細節(jié)理解題。文章開門見山提出主題，然后在第二段講述電子產(chǎn)品所帶來的好處，而其余三段都是介紹電子產(chǎn)品可能造成的問題，故A選項正確。

3.D細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)后面的解釋部分“學生應該被教給如何去培養(yǎng)技能去識別網(wǎng)上信息的質量”可知學生對于信息沒有很好的判斷能力，答案選D

4.A細節(jié)理解題。從文章倒數(shù)第二段可知教師擔心學生們不努力學習的原因是他們可能會從網(wǎng)上抄襲作業(yè)，答案選A。
