Some may use this freedom to share less time with certain friends or family members, but new technology will also let them stay in closer touch with those they care most about. I know this from personal experience. E-mail makes it easy to work at home, which is where I now spend most weekends and evenings. My working hours aren’t necessarily much shorter than they once were but I spend fewer of them at the office. This lets me share more time with my young daughter than I might have if she’d been born before electronic mail became such a practical tool. The Internet also makes it easy to share thoughts with a group of friends. Say you do something fun see a great movie perhaps-and there are four or five friends who might want to hear about it. If you call each one, you may tire of telling the story. With E-mail, you just write one note about your experience, at your convenience, and address it to all the friends you think might be interested. They can read your message when they have time, and read only as much as they want to. They can reply at their convenience, and you can read what they have to say at your convenience. E-mail is also an inexpensive way stay in close touch with people who live far away. More than a few parents use E-mail to keep in touch, even daily touch, with their children off at college. We just have to keep in mind that computers and the Internet offer another way ofstaying in touch. They don’t take the place of any of the old ways. 56. The purpose of this passage is to ________. A. explain how to use the Internet B. describe the writer’s joy of keeping up with the latest technology C. tell the merits(价值) and usefulness of the Internet D. introduce the reader to basic knowledge about personal computers and the Internet 57. The use of E-mail has made it possible for the writer to ________. A. spend less time working B. have more free time with his child C. work at home on weekends D. work at a speed comfortable to him 58. According to the writer, E-mail has an obvious advantage over the telephone because the former helps one ________. A. reach a group of people at one time conveniently B. keep one’s communication as personal as possible C. pass on much more information than the later D. get in touch with one’s friends faster than the later 第二节：阅读下面对话，并根据对话内容完成表格。 Dr David Weeks has spent years studying these so-called “Superyoung” people. Now the reporter(R) is interviewing Dr Weeks(DW). R: Dr Weeks, could you start by telling us exactly what you mean by the expression “Superyoung”? DW: Yes, well, I mean a lucky group of people who actually look and feel as much as 18 years younger than they really are. R: Is looking younger than our age just a question of our genes? DW: Well, of course it’s one of the important things. But we have many other things to think about. My study has shown, for example, that a happy life is quite important. They often have friendships with people younger than themselves too. (责任编辑：admin) |
