Michael a typical American, stays home on workdays. He plugs into his personal
computer terminal in order to connect with the office. After work he puts on his
headphones, watches a movie on his home video recorder or plays baseball on the
computer. On many days, michael doesn"t talk to any other human beings, and he
doesn"t see any people except the ones on television. Michael is imaginary, but his
lifestyle is very possible. The inventions of modern technology seem to be cutting
US off from contact with our fellow human being
The world of business is one area which technology is isolating. US experts say,
for example, that many people will soon be able to work at home. With access(接通)
to a large central computer, employees such as office clerks, insurance agents and
accountants could do their jobs at display terminals in their own homes. They would
never have to actually see the people they"re dealing with. In addition, the way
employees are paid will change. Workers" salaries will be automatically paid into
their bankaccounts (账户 ) , makingpaper checks unnecessary. No workers will
stand in line to receive their pay or cash their checks. Personal banking will change,
too. Customers will deal with machines to put in or take out money from their accounts.
Another area that technology is changing is entertainment. Music,for instance,was
once a group experience. People listened to music at concert halls or in small social
gatherings. For many people now however, music is an individual experience. Walking
along the street or sitting in their living rooms, they wear headphones to build a wall
of music around them. Movie entertainment is changing, too. Movies used to be social
events. Now, fewer people are going out to see a movie. Many more are choosing to
wait for a film to appear on television or are borrowing videotapes to watch at home.
Instead of laughing with others, viewers watch movies in their own living rooms.
B. Michael is not a real person, but the lifestyle doesexist
C. Michael has ambitions but he can"t make his dreams come true
D. Michael is a person full of imagination and his style is common nowadays
B. One can play baseball on the computer.
C. One can listen to music without disturbing others.
D. One can borrow books from libraries at home.
B. Personal banking.
C. Music and films.
D. International business.
B. Modern technology seems to be separating human beings.
C. We may no longer need to work in the office.
D. Modem technology makes it possible for us to work and entertain ourselves at home.
If you asked high school girls to name their favorite sports, most would probably say basketball or
volleyball. I happen to be one of the few girls who would 1 : surfing(冲浪运动) . But isn"t that a
boy thing? Some people 2 Most certainly not.
I started surfing about five years ago and 3 in love with the sport on the very first day. Riding
that first 4 was the best feeling I had ever experienced.
When I try to 5 surfing with other things, I find it very difficult because, in my 6 , there"s
nothing like it. It involves (牵涉) body, 7 , and soul. There"s sand between my toes and cool,
salt water all 8 the US. The feeling I get when I"m surfing across that 9 , becoming one with
the 10 is like I"m weightless.
The one thing I can 11 from surfing and not any other sport is endless challenge (挑战). You can
never be the "best surfer" because the ocean 12 an uncountable variety of waves that nobody can
ever master. The variations of surfing styles are wonderful. Some surfers are free and flowing; others are
very aggressive(活跃有力的) and 13 . All of these things attract me to surfing and make it 14
from any other sport.
I"ve 15 to tell every girl I know to do something that people don"t think girls can do. It"s part of
being human to advance to new 16 . So shouldn"t it be expected that girls should step up and
start 17 the limits of things boys and men used to dominate(主宰) ?
There"re women 18
side by side with the President of our country, so why not stand side by side with the boys 19 the
football team or out in the water surfing? Give girls a chance to 20 , and they will.

| What do you know about the sea? You may have seen it. Some of us have swum or bathed in it. It looks beautiful on a fine sunny day and it can be very rough when there is a strong wind. What other things do we do about it? Of course, the sea is very large. In the world there is more sea than land. The sea covers three quarters of the earth. The sea is also very deep in some places. It is not deep everywhere; some parts of it are very great. At one spot, near Japan the sea is nearly 11kilometres deep just think of it, the highest mountain in the world is only 9 kilometres high! If you have swum in the sea, you know that the water is salty. Rivers carry salt from the land into the sea. Some parts of the sea are more salty than other parts. Do you know the Dead Sea in Arabia? It is very salty. Swimmers cannot sink in it! Fish cannot live in the Dead Sea. It is a strange sea. In most parts of the sea, there are a lot of fishes and plants. Some live near the top of the sea. Others live deep down. No sunlight can reach the depth of the sea. So it is completely dark. Strange fishes live there. Some are blind. Some have their own lights. Some have great jaws（嘴巴）.With their great jaws, they swallow fish larger than themselves. The sea can be very cold. Deep sea divers know this well. At the top the water may be warm. Then as the divers go down, the sea becomes colder and colder. Many scientists are now making a study of animal and plant life in the sea. They hope to find new resources for mankind. | |||
