Question

6 June, Saturday

I read an article about people living in e-age yesterday. It talks about different ways of communicating like chatting on line, sending e-mails, sending different kinds of messages and keeping an online diary.

The article says that people nowadays send e-mails at least once a day. I don’t agree with this because I send e-mail only twice a week. However, I do check my e-mail once a day. I like receiving e-mails.

About chatting online, the article says that chatting on line is becoming more and more popular among teenagers. I think this is true. Whenever I arrive at home, I turn on my computer and log on(登录) to chat online with my friends. I prefer chatting online to calling a friend, because I can chat with many friends at the same time.

But I like using mobile phones. When I do not have my computer with me I can send short massages to my friends. I also like keeping in touch with them in this way.

I keep an online diary four times a week. I like telling others what has happened to me.

I think I am one of the people living in the e-age. I can live without computers or mobile phones.

What about you? Can you live without computers or mobile phones?

试题分析：这篇短文中作者给我们介绍的是他读了一篇关于人们生活在电子时代的书，他对书中的一些说法发表了自己的看法。作者觉得自己就生活在一个电子时代，他经常在网上很朋友们聊天，有时候也发电子邮件。但是作者也说他离开了电脑或手机也是可以的，并没有对他们有所依赖。

1.推理判断题。根据短文的开头6 June Saturday可知，这篇日记是6月6日写的，并且短文的开头I read an article about people living in e-age yesterday可知，作者是昨天读了一篇关于生活在电子时代的人们的文章。由此可知，他是在6月5日读的，故选B。

2.细节理解题。根据短文第二段中I don’t agree with this because I send e-mail only twice a week.可知，作者一周发送两次电子邮件。Sometimes有时候；Every day 每天；Always 总是；Never从不。由此可知选A。

3.推理判断题。根据短文中作者的描述可知，作者觉得自己就生活在一个电子时代，他也喜欢现在的很多电子产品，故A正确；根据However, I do check my e-mail once a day可知B也正确；根据About chatting online, the article says that chatting on line is becoming more and more popular among teenagers. I think this is true可知C是正确的；根据Whenever I arrive at home, I turn on my computer and log on(登录) to chat online with my friends可知，作者回到家的时候，总是打开电脑，在网上和朋友们聊天，并不是打电话，故D不对。

4.细节理解题。根据短文第二段中The article says that people nowadays send e-mails at least once a day. I don’t agree with this可知，文章中说现在的人们每天至少一次发送电子邮件，作者不同意这个说法。由此可知选B。
