Look at the diagram. It something of home computer used by a group of young people. We asked thirty young people between fourteen and eighteen. We asked them how much they usually spent on their computers in a week, but we were most interested in they used their computers for.
The usual time spent on a computer in a week was about twelve hours, with user about thirty-two hours, and the lowest user only five hours.
All the children said they usually used computers . Fourteen children told us they did some word processing (文字处理) . Only two of them said computers helped with their lessons, and eight people told us they kept addresses and phone numbers on their computers or used as diaries. Only three people said they were learning to make computer programmes and nobody looked up databases(数据库). None of them used computers for any use.
The results show that computer use is quite high among 14～18 year old. They also show quite clearly that computers by most young people as little more than game machines. The only other great uses are for word-processing and address lists. Though computers are common in the homes of young people, they have not yet become useful in everyday life.

It is not easy for people to sail (航海) around the world in quite small boats. Sometimes the weather gets bad. Accidents(事故) can happen easily and quickly.
One family once had an accident. A big fish swam under their boat and bit holes(洞) in it. Sea water came in and the boat soon went down. Luckily these people had another small boat——a lifeboat, so they all got into the lifeboat. They lived in the boat for many days. They ate and slept, and always hoped. At last people in a ship saved them.
How do people live in a very small lifeboat for a long time? They must be strong in every way. They must have a hope, and they must have a strong desire（愿望）to live. People cannot drink seawater. If they drink a lot of sea water, they will quickly die. They must catch rainwater and drink it. They must also catch fish and birds for food. Lifeboats do not often carry cookers. So people cannot cook their food in the lifeboats. Raw (生的) fish and birds are not very nice but they are their only food. They must eat raw food, or they will die.
小题1:When the boat sank (下沉), the lifeboat gave the people _______.| A．food | B．beds | C．rainwater | D．hope |
小题2:One family once had an accident at sea, because _______.| A．their boat met bad weather | | B．their boat hit a big rock and it was broken | | C．none of them knew how to sail | | D．a fish bit holes in their boat |
小题3:People can catch _______ for food and drink at sea in a lifeboat.| A．fish and birds | B．rainwater | | C．both sea water and rainwater | D．both A and B |
小题4:Lifeboats do not often carry cookers. The word "cookers" here means ________.小题5:From the article (文章) we can know that ______.| A．It’s not interesting to sail around the world | | B．Fish in the sea are so dangerous | | C．we must have a strong desire（愿望）to live when we are in danger | | D．Nobody knows when we will die |
