【题目】阅读理解

In a computer age, a broadband Internet connection is very popular now.Whether cable or mobile broadband, today's connections are many times faster than those in the early days.Videos play smoothly, complex websites load quickly, and files download much faster than ten years ago. And the files are much bigger too.

There's a hidden problem:you have to live near enough to a major city to get broadband Internet. If you don't, it's slow dialup access for you. And for those living really far away,there may be no Internet access at all.

Technology experts often talk about the “last mile” problem, which refers to the difficulty of bringing Internet access to remote locations. In cities and suburbs(郊区), it's relatively easy to provide access for everyone. It is much more difficult to deliver access to those living far from cities,especially in developing countries. Internet service providers,for their part,have been reluctant to provide access to sparsely (稀疏地) populated areas. The handful of Internet users they would reach wouldn't cover the expense.

But every year,technological advancements allow of more and more Internet users.Most broadband connections today run over existing cable TV and telephone lines although these technologies aren't available everywhere.

Some companies have delivered the Internet over standard power lines.Advancements in cheaper and more efficient fiberoptic cables(光缆)promise to bring extremely fast Internet connections to more users.Still, the “last mile” problem remains hard to deal with.There will always be somewhere that doesn't have an affordable broadband connection. But someday that might not matter. If span>the rapid progress in cellphone technology has any indication, it may not be too long before an Internet connection simply follows you wherever you go.

【1】Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?

A.Internet connections have been popular everywhere.

B.Internet service providers are willing to care about rural customers.

C.The problem of Internet access hasn't been completely dealt with.

D.Computers can't become popular in developing countries.

【2】Paragraph 4 mainly tells us that technological advancements ________.

A.make TV and telephone available everywhere

B.bring great change to people's everyday life

C.bring faster Internet connections to users

D.make it possible for more people to use the Internet

【3】What may eventually settle the “last mile” problem?

A.The broadband connection's getting faster.

B.The rapid progress in cellphone technology.

C.More and more Internet connections.

D.More and more Internet users.

【4】The best title for this passage may be “________”.

A.Internet Connection Problems

B.Internet Connections Need Improving

C.Progress in Internet Connections

D.Internet Connections Today

【答案】

【1】C

【2】D

【3】B

【4】A

【解析】

试题分析:

【1】正误判断题。根据第二段“There's a hidden problem:you have to live near enough to a major city to get broadband Internet.If you don't, it's slow dialup access for you.And for those living really far away,there may be no Internet access at all.”可知,离大城市较远的地区有可能根本无法使用互联网,即互联网的接入问题还没有完全得到解决,故选C项。

【2】细节理解题。根据第四段的第一句“But every year,technological advancements allow of more and more Internet users.”可知,科技的进步使得越来越多的人可以使用互联网,故选D项。

【3】细节理解题。根据最后一段的最后一句“If the rapid progress in cell phone technology has any indication,it may not be too long before an Internet connection simply follows you wherever you go.”可知,如果手机科技的飞速进步有任何的迹象,那就不用太久,互联网的接入就将跟着你到任何地方,故选B项。

【4】主旨大意题。文章讲述了在因特网迅速发展的今天,也存在问题,即部分偏远地区还不能使用互联网,最后介绍了如何解决这一问题,故A项“因特网连接问题”最适合作文章标题。

【题目】About us

Started by private citizens who believe that everyone should have the right to take showers, Lava Mae seeks to reach those who lack these necessities.

We turn retired public transportation buses into bathrooms because we believe that for the thousands of men, women and children living on our streets, a shower can be the first step towards change.

Our partners

Each day we partner different local non-profit organizations providing services to the homeless.

The local government tries their best to deliver our services. For example, get buses and seek access to water.

The private sector has provided us with goods and services, in addition to other support and funding that make our service possible.

Our mission

To deliver dignity(尊严)and unlock opportunity for the homeless—one mobile shower at a time. Fundamental to this mission are three beliefs: First, everyone has the right to be clean. Second, those experiencing homelessness can’t access jobs and housing or maintain health and happiness if they can’t get clean. Third, with hygiene(卫生)comes dignity; with dignity, opportunity.

Wednesdays: 9:30am~12pm;YWAM in the Tenderloin; 344 Ellis St. between Taylor and Jones.

Thursdays: 9:30 am~3:30pm; API Wellness in the Tenderloin;730 Polk St. near Ellis St.

【题目】阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项。

Many people in high school cannot wait to go to college and leave their hometown behind.Questions arise, though, when it comes to all of the decisions involved in choosing a college.

One of the first considerations may be finance. State and public colleges are often the least expensive. Often, though, the better colleges are private and more expensive. It is sad when gifted students cannot attend a college of their choice just for financial reasons.

Another major factor is location. Whether the college is in a small town or large city can have a major impact on its activities. A water lover probably will be more comfortable spending four years near an ocean or a lake.Those who cannot tolerate heat will probably be more comfortable at a northern college. Distance from home may also come into consideration.If family is a top priority, that person should stay close to home; on the other hand, if independence is desired, a campus farther from home would be more appropriate.

School size also plays a major role in the decision process. If you want to get to know your teachers, a small college is suitable. For those of you who consider yourself a people_person and want a wide range of activities, a large college is more fitting. Your area of interest is another factor to consider in the decisionmaking process if you want to get the most from your education. The whole point of college is to learn what is of interest to you.

Crucially(至关重要地), one must take into consideration the colleges by which you can realistically be accepted. An Ivy League school for an average student would probably not be a good match. Similarly, an average school for an aboveaverage student would not work well. The college should provide enough of a challenge for the student to work hard.Although there may not be the perfect college out there, there probably will be one that is close.Those who cannot find a suitable college are probably not looking hard enough.

【1】When it comes to going to college the author thinks ________.

A.students will become homesick

B.students are unwilling to leave their home

C.financial situation is the first to consider

D.students are eager to attend their ideal university

【2】What is the main idea of the third paragraph?

A.The location of the college is a main factor.

B.A long distance will make students upset.

C.Students can be independent at college.

D.The climate must be taken into consideration.

【3】What does the underlined part “people person” in the passage mean?

A.A very sociable person.

B.A very particular person.

C.A person of great capacity.

D.A person of great importance.

【4】Which is the most important factor when choosing a college?

A.The location of a college.

B.The coming challenges.

C.School size.

D.The examination result.
