12.Count Me Out
Call me old-fashioned.Call me old.Call me what you want,but refuse to become part of this new Internet world.
I do not possess a computer at home or at the office.Actually,I stopped going to an office 35years ago,when all communications were done with a pen,a typewriter,or,if the matter was of world-shaking importance,over the telephone.Likewise,if you like something advertised in a newspaper or magazine,you visited the shop selling it at the given address,or you phoned,the number shown.Then you spoke to the fellow and asked for further details.
Tell me what you think of the following ad that appeared the other day in the newspaper.It was for a cure for cancer and this is what it said:"Awareness is the key.Visit spfulford.com at the awareness site."There was no address or telephone number for the site.So what do unfortunate people without a computer do it they are seeking a cure for their illness?
There are,I am told,certain advantages in having access to the Internet.You can,for example,send love messages across the world or even get married to someone that you meet online.This bit doesn't interest me; I have been happily married for 60years.There are,of course,other activities for Internet users besides finding love.They can pay bills,order groceries,or discuss with their doctors.
And this is by no means all.More amazing things are yet to come in the near future.I read a newspaper report recently that quoted Stephen Hawking,an important British scientist."The complexity of a computer as it exists today is probably less than the brain of an earthworm,"he said."But,as technology advances,computers will become more complex,and a time may come when the Internet may develop‘consciousness.'In other words,the Internet will be able to think,have feelings,and may well be able to act on its own."
If Professor Hawking is right,I may change my attitude about conjurers.As I grow older each day,I would like one of those that not only thinks for me but also accepts responsibilities for all my mistakes.

60.What's the meaning of the title"Count Me Out"?D
A.Get me out of the Internet world.
B.Computers are trying to take control of life.
C.Modern technology pushes old people away.
D.Do not expect me to be a supporter of the Internet.
61.According to Paragraph 2,the author thinks computers areA.
A.unnecessary  B.convenient  C.expensive  D.advanced
62.What might the author like about the future computer?A
A.Taking blames.
B.Curing illnesses.
C.Delivering messages.
D.Responding to emotions.

13.I can still remember the first day when I met my best friend.She had just moved into the neighborhood and her grandmother brought her down to meet me.I hid behind my mother and she hid behind her grandmother,scared to look at each other.
    Soon,we lost the shyness and started playing with each other,bike riding to each other's house and having sleepovers.In 7th grade she was going through family problems.However,every summer we would always sit at each other's house and watch movies on TV and talk about all the boys we liked.
    It was last year when I noticed the problem.She suffered from clinical depression(抑郁症),and had to go to a hospital during the day.I was very sorry for her at first.But with the late night calls,and meeting each other halfway up the street at midnight,we still stayed in touch.I wanted to be there for her since her new best friend left her,and I knew I still cared about her like a sister.
    Yesterday she came to me and said this."I never knew what a best friend was until you were the only person that would stop me from cutting myself; the only person that ever made me feel better about myself and my problems.You didn't know this but I was trying to kill myself that very night you called me and I was crying.I owe you so much,and you didn't even know you were helping me."
    We both cried.And I guess a kind of lesson from my life so far is to never give up your friends.Even if they aren't as cool as others,or people think they are crazy,they need someone there.If you leave them,you will only be very sorry.So if friends need you,and you care for them,you should be always there for them.
41.Why did the two girls hide behind their family members when they first met?D
A.Because they were playing a game
B.Because they didn't like each other.

Even with a staff of 22 volunteers,Thomas often devotes up to 50 hours a week to his cause,while still doing his full-time job waiting tables."Of the diabetes charities out there,most are putting money into finding a cure,"says Bentley Gubar one of Rockstar's original members."But Christopher is the only person I know saying people need help now."

14.I took the bus to work for many years.No one knew each other; the passengers all sat there sleepily in the morning.The bus was cheerless and silent.
One of the passengers was a small gray-haired man who took the bus to the center for senior citizens every morning.No one ever paid very much attention to him.
One July morning he said good morning to the driver and smiled.The driver nodded guardedly(戒备地).The rest of us were silent.
The next day,the old man boarded with a big smile and said in a loud voice:"A very good morning to you all!"Some of us looked up,amazed,and murmured"Good Morning"in reply.
The following weeks,our friend was dressed in a nice old suit and tie.His thin hair had been carefully combed.He said good morning to us every day and we gradually began to nod and talk to each other.
One morning he even had a bunch of wild flowers in his hand.The driver turned around smiling and asked:"Have you got yourself a girlfriend,Charlie?"We never got to know if his name really was"Charlie",but he nodded shyly and said yes.The other passengers whistled and clapped at him.Charlie waved the flowers before he sat down on his seat.
Every morning after that Charlie always brought flowers.Some passengers also brought flowers for him.The bus became a happy place.
Then,one morning,as autumn was closing in,Charlie wasn't waiting at his usual stop.When he wasn't there the next day and the day after that,we started wondering if he was sick or-hopefully-on holiday somewhere.
When we came nearer to the center for senior citizens,one of the passengers asked the driver to wait.We all held our breaths when he went to the door.
The old gentle man was fine,but one of his close friends had died over the weekend.How silent we were the rest of the way to work.
The next Monday Charlie was waiting at the stop,stooping (弯腰) a bit more,a little bit more gray,and without a tie.Inside the bus was silent.Even though no one had talked about it,all of us sat there silently,our eyes filled with tears and a bunch of wild flowers in our hands.
56.From the passage,we can infer thatC
