Question

【题目】 If you receive an e-mail that looks something like this: ARE YOU GOING TO CLASS TODAY? How does reading this message make you feel? Why did the sender use all capital letters? Was he or she angry, or did that person just forget to turn off the 'Cap Lock' on the computer? 【1】 Knowing when and when not to use capital letters is just one example of online etiquette (礼仪)-often called 'netiquette'. Virginia Shea's book, Netiquette, lists a basic set of dos and don'ts for communicating suitably with others on the Internet. Following are some of her suggestions.

First, always remember that you are sending messages to a real person, not just to a computer. 【2】 Also, remember that the person who receives your massage can not hear the tone of your voice, or see the expression on your face, so make sure your meaning is clear.

【3】 Don't take anything without paying for it unless it's free. Don't use information that someone else has written, and say it's yours. Don't read other people's e-mail-you wouldn't open your next-door neighbor's mailbox and open their mail, right? Do share your knowledge of the Internet with others. It's a big place with lots of information, and there are many new things to discover.

Remember that people judge (判断) you by your words as well as your actions, so do try to write well. Good writing skills, as well as correct grammar and s petting, do matter. Send polite, well-written e-mail messages to others if you're uncertain about how to spell a word or which phrases to use, look it up. 【4】

It's okay to sow your ideas online in forums (论坛) like chatting room or message boards, but don't start arguments with people. 'Flame wars' (口水战) in online discussions can be interesting to read, but are often unfair to other members of the group. 【5】

When you're online or offline, just as in 'real' life, try to respect other people's space, privacy and feelings. Remember, you are not the only one travelling on this highway!

A.Maybe this is somebody's habit.

B.There are lots of helpful books and websites.

C.Don't type anything online that you wouldn't say to someone's face.

D.Don't do anything online that you wouldn't do in the real life.

E.The fact is, this e-mail usually the way that people shout online.

F.Express your opinions, but remember that fighting online or offline is just not suitable.

【解析】

本文主要介绍了作家弗吉尼亚·谢伊关于网络礼仪给出的一些建议。

【1】联系上文“Was he or she angry, or did that person just forget to turn off the 'Cap Lock' on the computer?”他/她生气了还是这个人只是忘记关闭电脑上的大写键？再联系下文“Knowing when and when not to use capital letters is just one example of online etiquette (礼仪)-often called 'netiquette'.”知道什么时候用什么时候不用是网络礼仪的例子之一。可知，空格句子的意思是回答上文email为什么会全部大写的原因，而且这个原因和网络礼仪有关。选项E的意思是事实是，这个email就是人们经常网上叫喊的方式。符合语境。故选E。

【2】联系上文“First, always remember that you are sending messages to a real person, not just to a computer.”首先，要记住你在发信息给真人，而不是电脑。再联系下文“Also, remember that the person who receives your massage can not hear the tone of your voice”同时，也要记得接受你信息的人听不到你的语气。可知，空格句子的意思是信息和真人之间的关系。选项C的意思是不要在网上输入你不会当真人面说的话。符合语境。故选C。

【3】联系下文“Don't take anything without paying for it unless it's free. Don't use information that someone else has written, and say it's yours.”不要不付钱就拿走任何东西，除非是免费的。不要使用别人写的信息，并说这是你的。可知，本段的中心意思是指不要在网络上做一些你真实生活中不会做的事。故选D。

【4】联系上文“Send polite, well-written e-mail messages to others if you're uncertain about how to spell a word or which phrases to use, look it up.”发送有礼貌，写得好的email信息给别人，如果你不确定如何拼写一个单词或使用哪个短语，那就查字典吧。可知，空格句子的意思是有哪些方式可以帮你发送有礼貌，写得好的email信息给别人。选项B的意思是有很多有用的书籍和网站。符合语境。故选B。

【5】联系上文“'Flame wars' (口水战) in online discussions can be interesting to read, but are often unfair to other members of the group”网上的口水战讨论阅读起来很有趣，但对其他成员不公平。可知，空格句子的意思和口水战有关。选项F的意思是表达你的观点，但是记住线上线下的斗争是不合适的。符合语境。故选F。

选择句子补全短文的做题方法是确定文章的中心意思后，联系上下文，根据语境找出最佳选项。本文主要讲述了作家弗吉尼亚·谢伊关于网络礼仪给出的一些建议，如第1题，联系上下文，可知空格句子的意思是要解释上文提出的问题，为什么发送者使用所有大写字母？选项只有E事实是，这个email就是人们经常网上叫喊的方式。回答了这个问题，选项意思符合语境。所以联系上下文很重要。
