三、阅读理解
A段
A new generation addiction is quickly spreading all over
the world.Weboholism，a twentieth century disease，affects people from different ages.They surf the Net，use emails and speak in chat rooms.They spend many hours on the computer，and it becomes a compulsive habit.They cannot stop，and it affects their lives.
Ten years ago，no one thought that using computers could become compulsive behavior that could affect the social and physical life of computer users.This obsessional behavior has affected teenagers and college students.They are likely to log on computers and spend long hours at different websites.
They become hooked on computers and gradually their social and school life is affected by this situation.They spend
all free time surfing and don’t concentrate on homework，so this
addiction influences
their grades
and
success
at
school.Because they can find everything on the websites，they hang
out there.Moreover，this addiction to websites influences their social life.
They spend more time in front of computers than with their friends.The relation with their friends changes.The virtual life becomes more important than their real life.They have a new language that they speak in the chat rooms and it causes cultural changes in society.
Because of the change in their behavior，they begin to keep themselves apart from society and live with their virtual friends.They share their emotions and feelings with friends who they have never met in their life.Although they feel confident on the computer，they are not confident with real live friends they have known all their life.It is a problem for the future.This addictive behavior is beginning to affect all the world.
【语篇解读】 网瘾在全球迅速蔓延，成为世纪通病，影响着不同年龄的人群。
1．The author’s attitude towards weboholism is that of being________.
A．optimisticB．disapproving
C．positive
D．acceptable
解析 作者态度题。结合第一段后半部分提到的网瘾的不良影响可知，作者对网瘾持不赞成的态度。另外，第三、四、五段的内容都是线索提示。
答案 B
2．What is the main idea of the passage?
A．The influence of weboholism.
B．The advantage of weboholism.
C．The popularity of weboholism.
D．The cause of weboholism.
解析 主旨大意题。文章第一段开门见山地阐述了网瘾的危害，然后从不同方面详细阐述了它造成的不良影响，所以A项最能概括文章大义。
答案 A
3．What does the underlined word “obsessional” in the second
paragraph most probably mean?
A．Attractive. B．Professional.
C．Addictive. D．Potential.
解析 词义猜测题。第二段最后一句提到青少年和大学生可能会登录电脑，在不同的网站上花费很长的时间，由此可推知“obsessional”的意思是“痴迷的，上瘾的”，与“addictive”同义。
答案 C
4．We can infer from the passage that________.
A．weboholism has the greatest effect on teenagers
B．students can hardly balance real and virtual life
C．people are addicted to games on the Internet
D．virtual life is more vivid and attractive anyway
解析 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段第三句“The virtual life becomes more important than their real life.”以及最后一段第一句中的“they begin to keep themselves apart from society and live with their virtual friends”可推知，学生们几乎不能平衡真实生活和虚拟生活。
答案 B
B段
This year some twenty-three hundred teenagers (young people aged from 13-19) from all over the world will spend about ten months in U.S homes. They will attend U.S. schools, meet U.S. teenagers, and form impressions of the real America. At the same time, about thirteen hundred American teenagers will go to other countries to learn new languages and gain a new understanding of the rest of the world.
Here is a two-way student exchange in action. Fred nineteen spent last year in Germany with George’s family. In turn, George’s son Mike spent a year in Fred’s home in America.
Fred, a lovely young man, knew little German when he arrived, but after two months’ study, the language began to come to him. The school was completely differently different from what he had expected—much harder. Students rose respectfully when the teacher entered the room. They took fourteen subjects instead of the six that are usual in the United States. There were almost no outside activities.
Family life, too, was different. The father’s word was law, and all activities were around the family rather than the individual. Fred found the food too simple at first. Also, he missed having a car.
“Back home, you pick up some friends in a car and go out and have a good time. In Germany, you walk, but you soon learn to like it.”
At the same time, in America, Mike, a friendly German boy, was also forming his idea. “I suppose I should criticize American schools,” he says. “It is far too easy by our level. But I have to say that I like it very much. In Germany we do nothing but study. Here we take part in many outside activities. I think that maybe your schools are better in training for citizens. There ought to be some middle ground between the two.”
