阅读理解。     The Internet brings us many advantages.
      With the Internet, people can send and receive e-mails. On the Internet, people can skim over news. Using
the Telnet, the user anywhere on the Internet can log into any other machine on which he has an account. It is
possible to use the FIP program to copy files from one machine on the Internet to another.
      But the Internet also brings us troubles.
     Internet use seems to cause a fall in psychological (心理的) health, according to research at Camegie
Mellon University. Even people who spent just a few hours a week on the Internet experienced more depression and loneliness than those who logged on less often, the two-year study showed. And it wasn"t that people who
were already feeling bad spent more time on the Internet, but that using the Net actually seemed to cause the
bad feelings.
     Researchers are puzzled over the results, which were completely opposite to what they had expected. They
expected that the Net would prove socially healthier than television, since the Net allows users to choose their
information and to communicate with others.
     The fact that Internet use reduces time used for family and friends may be the reason for the drop in health,
researchers said. Faceless, bodiless"virtual" (虚拟的) communication may be less psychologically satisfying
than actual conversations, and the relationships formed through it may not be so deep. Another possibility is
that exposure to the wider world through the Net makes users less satisfied with their lives.
     "But it"s important to remember this is not about the technology; it"s about how it is used," said one of the
researchers. "It really points to the need for considering social factors (因素) when you design new inventions." 1. The writer mainly wants to tell us that _____. A. the Internet can bring people many advantages
B. the Internet use may cause psychological problems
C. the Internet users are not satisfied with their lives
D. we shouldn"t use the Internet 2. Why are the researchers puzzled over the results? A. Because the results were completely different from what they had thought.
B. Because the Net proved socially healthier than television.
C. Because the Internet users were all healthier.
D. Because the Internet users experienced less depression and loneliness. 3.What may be the reasons why the Internet use causes a fall in psychological health?A. Internet use reduces time used for family and friends.
B. Virtual communication is less psychologically satisfying than actual conversations.
C. Exposure to the wider world through the Net makes users less satisfied with their lives.
D. All the above.4. What does the underlined part in the last paragraph mean? A. What matters is not the technology but how it is used.
B. This passage is not about the technology but about how it is used.
C. We should remember to learn about the technology.
D. We should remember to learn how to use computers.

     Most of us can remember the days when we didn"t use e-mail as an everyday vehicle for communication.
Slowly but surely, it crept (慢慢移动) into   1   . E-mail is a   2   tool for college students at any level. It"s
available 24 hours a day,7 days a week and   3   at holidays. Most universities assign students an account

     You can do everything from consulting on homework and projects,   5   classmates, family and friends,
and getting daily new services to  6   you informed of world  7   . But, what are the  8  ? E-mail can be e-jail.
You might   9   hours writing and replying to e-mails  10   you should be busy with the books for an upcoming
exam. 
  11   ,you might be signed up for so many daily services,   12   horoscopes (占星术), new services, or
personals, that your mailbox is so   13   "junk mail",that finding the  14  e-mails through your box might take
hours.
      If you"re a student,  15   is precious. Create and organize your e-mail folders into important school-related
mail, correspondence (通信)with friends and family, and a folder for jokes, horoscopes and other new services. 
  16   put the mail into the proper folders first, and when you"ve finished, head for the important school-related
folder first. Respond to the most important e-mails first and,   17   you have time, you can get to the others. 
       18  your friends from forwarding those tiresome jokes, tiresome quizzes, and chain mails. The minute you 
  19   you"ve got one, delete it   20   so you won"t be tempted to read it.

     Mistakes are a part of life. To err is human. Failure is also a part of life, not the end of life. Be happy facing life"s challenges. When you make the effort to be happy and to improve your life, you are actually rewarded along the way.
     Life is like a game and maybe you can award (奖励) points for every effort that has been a success for you. Try it. Add ten points for every achievement. And when you have reached 50 points, just yell, "Hey, I"ve won!" and give yourself a reward. If you happen to have missed your points for whatever reasons, tell yourself,"well, I tried!" which is better than not trying at all. Don"t let it be said you didn"t try.
     What is it that you want to make yourself happy? Actually happiness means different things to different people. For example, an athlete will be happy winning his first race. For a new mother happiness would be seeing her baby"s first steps. Happiness for a poor person would mean having a meal just for today. So happiness for you is really something simple that you want for yourself.
     It really does not have to be big. As a matter of fact you should always have realistic expectations. Make the best out of every given situation. If you expect a certain result from a situation and it does not happen, don"t get despondent. This just means trying harder next time. We all have in us the power to succeed. Don"t let "give up" be a part of your vocabulary.
1. By saying "To err is human", the author means that ______.
A. human beings should try to avoid making mistakes
B. no one is perfect and everyone makes mistakes
C. mistakes and failures make up our life
D. human beings make mistakes easily.
2. What"s the main idea of Paragraph 2?
A. Try to reach 50 points.
B. Never stop trying in your life.
C. Award yourself for your success.
D. Don"t be afraid of missing your points
3. The author proves his idea in Paragraph 3 through ______.
A. examples
B. numbers
C. experiments
D. stories
4. The underlined word "despondent" in the last paragraph means ______.
A. frightened
B. disappointed
C. surprised
D. excited

     Your voice is the only means of communicating over the telephone. Even so, watch your body language
and facial expressions-they affect the way you sound. If you are sleepy, for example, you often will sound
tired or breathless. To keep a healthy and bright tone (音调) in your voice, smile when talking on a phone.
     Don"t answer the phone in a rush. Take a deep breath, and then breathe out slowly as you pick up the
receiver. You will sound more relaxed. If you recognize the other person" s voice, use his/her name on your
greeting. Use it again during the conversation and when parting. When making a difficult call, work out exactly what you wish to say. Stand while making the call-it will help you sound more confident.
     Get fairly quickly to the point-"The reason I" m calling is..."Try to drop the pitch (音高) of your voice at
the ends of sentences-it will help you be more sure about what you said.
     If you know somebody wants to talk a lot, make it clear at the start of the call that you have only a little
time. There are several ways of making a call short:" It " s been lovely talking to you, but I really must go
now." or" I know you are quite busy, so I better go now."If all fails, try," My other line is ringing. Or"I think
there" s someone at the door."
     When leaving a message on someone s answering machine, speak clearly and slowly to allow the person to
take down any details as your message plays back. Many people feel uneasy with answering machines. Again,
form a picture of the other person in your mind, and you will sound more relaxed.
     With the increasing use of tele-communication and mobile phones, it has become of great importance that
we pay special attention to HOW and WHAT we speak on the phones.
1. In Paragraph 1, the author suggests paying attention to your  _____.
A. voice
B. body language
C. tone
D. health
2. What does the underlined word "it" in Paragraph 2 refer to?

B. The receiver.
C. The name.
D. The greeting.
3. The author supports his idea in Paragraph 4 through _____ .
A. experiments

                                                          Searching for the Truth
     Collecting and writing news is like researching in history: the best information comes from those who were
there at the time. So if we want to study the history of China in the sixth century AD, we look at the writings of the people who lived then. They are called the primary sources because they tell us what it was like to live then. People at a much later date who write about the same events are called the secondary sources. For example,
when we read the original writings of Jia Sixie on agriculture, we are reading a primary source; when we read
about Jia Sixie in our textbook we are reading a secondary source because the passage was written about him
and his ideas many years after he died.
     When we make news we use primary and secondary sources. We can see this most clearly in TV
programmes. As we watch the news on TV, the person presenting the programme in the studio is the
secondary source ( because he tells us about the news) and the reporter in Iraq or Washington is the primary
source ( because he is telling us about what is actually happening there). Without these reporters acting as
primary sources, you would never find out what really happened in a war, earthquake, sports meeting, concert
or festival. These reporters explain what is happening so we have a clearer idea of what is going on there. They often take photographers with them who act as primary source by giving pictures of events. In a newspaper
the position is different because these two roles are often combined. This means a reporter who investigates a
story may be the same person who writes it. If this happens, the reporter is both the primary and the secondary source. But the photographer who works with him/her is still a primary source.
      One of the reasons that it is important to separate primary and secondary sources is that they help us to
decide what is a fact and what is an opinion. A fact is something that everybody agrees has happened. An
opinion is somebody"s idea of what happened. So facts and opinions are often mixed in any report, whether in
a newspaper or on TV.
     What have you learnt from the above passage?
