解析

试题分析：如今通过网络聊天是越来越受欢迎的事情。对于远离家人的朋友的人来说，网上聊天要比打长途电话省钱；此外，在聊天的同时人们可以做很多事情，比如可以收发邮件、可以和房间里的其他人谈话。但是如果没有节制的话，长时间聊天也可能会耽误了人们其他任务的完成。
小题1:考查上下文理解判断能力。根据than判断用比较级，而由常识可知通过网络进行交流要比打长途电话省钱，所以此空填less。
小题2:考查冠词用法。Option是可数名词，而且attractive是以元音音素开头所以此空填an。
小题3:考查连词用法。根据句意可知前后两句是提出两种情况，所以填or 。
小题4:考查理解判断能力。上文讲述了可以通过网络进行沟通，而下文讲述可以发邮件，打字等，这些都是能通过网络做的事情，由此推断此空填other。
小题5:考查介词用法。根据语境可知此处是指与别人谈话，所以用with。
小题6:考查连词用法。由结构判断两个句子要用连词，再根据句意可知此空填when/if。
小题7:考查连词用法。由语境可知此处是指在网上聊天的同时可以做很多事情，所以填while。
小题8:考查定语从句。根据结构可知后面是非限制性定语从句，从句缺少主语，而且指代前面句子内容，所以判断填which。
