Another problem is the 38 of the information online. How do we know if it is accurate or reliable?

二、阅读理解
Some kids love computer games and spend too much time on them. They often hear Mom or Dad shout at them, “Enough! Turn off the computer and find some other things to do!”
Their parents are right. Why? If you’re always playing computer games, you won’t get enough exercise, so you may become fat. And if you spend too much time playing computer games, you’ll have less time to make friends or do your homework. What’s more, if you play computer games often, you may get angry easily and fight with others often.
But here’s the good news: Playing computer games for a short time can be OK. Just choose (选择) some good games and spend no more than one hour a day. Play the games for your age. You can play with your mom, dad or even your grandma together. It’s a good way to relax.

【导语】本文讨论了玩电脑游戏的好处与坏处,并提出适当游戏有助于休息与放松。
31.词义猜测题。根据“Enough! Turn off the computer and find some other things to do!”可知是让他们找一些其他的事情做,所以是关闭电脑。故选C。

三、完形填空
Information will soon be so easy to find on the internet that people will not need to remember anything. Do you agree?
Nowadays all the information we could ever need is available online and some people say that means the end of having to learn anything.
It is true that those days everything you want to know is a few clicks away as long as you have internet access.
36 , not everyone has working internet all the time, for example in certain buildings or remote locations, so we do need to be able to remember information.
Moreover, it takes time to look up everything you need to know online, while remembering something is 37 . The human memory is a much more efficient system.
Another problem is the 38 of the information online. How do we know if it is accurate or reliable? We need to think about other facts we know and remember how to 39 information from different websites. Knowing (and remembering) how to find certain information will be more important than knowing the information itself.
Finally, the internet is a good tool but it cannot take the place of our 40 . If we did not remember anything, we would all spend even more time on our phones and computers than we already do, which is not good for society.
In conclusion, the internet offers us many things but it is still important to use our knowledge and memories. We need our memories to function without the internet and we also need to know how to use the internet 41 .
36.A.At first B.What’s more C.However D.After all
37.A.impossible B.immediate C.basic D.essential
38.A.protection B.amount C.development D.quality
39.A.compare B.collect C.recognize D.process
40.A.traditions B.brains C.education D.knowledge
41.A.safely B.regularly C.properly D.happily
【答案】36.C 37.B 38.D 39.A 40.B 41.C
【导语】本文是一篇说明文,文章围绕信息在互联网上极易获取这一现象展开讨论,探讨了人们是否因此不再需要记忆任何东西这一问题。
36.句意:然而,并不是每个人都能一直使用互联网,例如在某些建筑物或偏远地区,所以我们确实需要能够记住信息。
at first起初;what's more而且;however然而;after all毕竟。根据上文“It is true that those days everything you want to know is a few clicks away as long as you have internet access.”和“not everyone has working internet all the time”可知,前面说的是在有互联网的情况下,信息很容易获取,但这里提到了并不是所有人都能一直使用互联网,存在转折关系。故选C。
37.句意:此外,在网上查找你需要知道的一切都需要时间,而记住一些事情是即时的。
impossible不可能的;immediate即时的;basic基本的;essential必要的。根据上文“it takes time to look up everything you need to know online”和“while remembering something”可知,在网上查找信息需要时间,而记住信息是很快就能做到的。故选B。
38.句意:另一个问题是网上信息的质量。
protection保护;amount数量;development发展;quality质量。根据下文“How do we know if it is accurate or reliable?”可知,这里说的是网上信息的准确性和可靠性,也就是信息的质量问题。故选D。
39.句意:我们需要思考我们知道的其他事实,并记住如何比较来自不同网站的信息。
compare比较;collect收集;recognize识别;process处理。根据下文“information from different websites”可知,这里说的是要对来自不同网站的信息进行比较,以判断其准确性和可靠性。故选A。
40.句意:最后,互联网是一个很好的工具,但它不能取代我们的大脑。
traditions传统;brains大脑;education教育;knowledge知识。根据下文“If we did not remember anything, we would all spend even more time on our phones and computers than we already do, which is not good for society.”可知,如果我们不记住任何东西,就会过度依赖手机和电脑,这对社会是不利的,说明互联网不能取代我们的大脑。故选B。
41.句意:我们需要我们的记忆在没有互联网的情况下发挥作用,我们也需要知道如何正确地使用互联网。
safely安全地;regularly定期地;properly正确地;happily快乐地。根据上文“We need our memories to function without the internet”可知,我们需要正确地使用互联网,以充分发挥其作用。故选C。
