Chat Online

  Your friends might be in Australia or maybe just down the road, but they are all just a few clicks away.Life has changed for millions of young people across the world who now make friends online.Whether you use chat-rooms, QQ, MSN or ICQ, you are a member of this group.

  “I don’t often talk with my parents or grandparents, but I talk a lot with my old friends on QQ,” said Fox’s Shadow, the online name used by a girl student in China.“Most of my classmates use QQ after school.”

  QQ is the biggest messaging service in China.A record from Tencent, the company which developed QQ, shows that 4 million people used it one Saturday night in October.

  And probably Fox’s Shadow was one of them.“I log in(登陆)on Friday nights, and Saturday or Sunday when I feel everything around me boring.I usually spend about 10 hours chatting online every week,” she said.“But I never talk with strangers, especially boys or men.”

  Even though she likes chatting, she is careful about making friends with strangers online.“You don’t know who you are talking to.You should always be careful about whom you believe on line.”

  Many people would like to meet offline when they feel they have got to be known to someone very well.Fox’s Shadow once met one of her online friends face to face.It was a girl who was a football fan like herself and they went to a football match together.

  A 16-year-old Beijing boy, named Simon online, dislikes QQ users.“I used to chat on QQ, but I found that most people were talking about foolish things,” he said.Now he chats online in English, using MSN.“I only chat online because I’ve got friends in Australia, the US and Singapore,” he said.“I want to learn more about foreign cultures.” But he spends little time chatting on QQ as he sees it as a waste of time and money.

  “If you are really addicted to(上瘾)it, sometimes you can’t give your mind to your lessons,” he said.“And friends in your real life are always more important than those so-called friends you meet online.”

三.阅读 (共两节,满分40分)
第一节阅读理解 (共15小题;每小题2分,满分30分)
阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C和D项中,选出最佳选项,并填写在答题卡上。
When I asked my daughter which item she would keep; the phone, the car, the cooker, the computer, the TV, or her boyfriend, she said“the phone”. Personally, I could do without the phone entirely, which makes me unusual. Because the telephone is changing our lives more than any other piece of technology.
Point 1 The telephone creates the need to communicate, in the same way that more roads create more traffic. My daughter comes home from school at 4:00 pm and then spends an hour on the phone talking to the very people she has been at school with all day. If the phone did not exist, would she have anything to talk about?
Point 2 The mobile phone means that we are never alone. “The mobile saved my life,”says Crystal Johnstone. She had an accident in her Volvo on the A45 between Otley and Skipton. Trapped inside, she managed to make the call that brought the ambulance(救护车) to her rescue.
Point 3 The mobile removes our secret. It allows marketing manager of Haba Deutsch, Carl Nicolaisen, to ring his sales staff all round the world at and time of day to ask where they are , where they are going, and how their last meeting went.
Point 4 The telephone separates us. Antonella Bramante in Rome says, “We worked in separate offices but I could see him through the window. It was easy to get his number. We were so near——but we didn’t meet for the first two weeks!”
Point 5 The telephone allows us to reach out beyond our own lives. Today we can talk to several complete strangers simultaneously ( 同时地) on chat lines (at least my daughter does. I wouldn’t know what to talk about). We can talk across the world. We can even talk to astronauts (if you know any) while they’re space-walking. And, with the phone line hooked up to the computer, we can access(存取) the Internet, the biggest library on Earth.
1.How do you understand‘Point 1 —The telephone creates the need to communicate,…’?
A. People don’t communicate without telephone.
B. People communicate because of the creating of the telephone.
C. People communicate more since telephone has been created.
D. People communicate more because of more traffic.
2.Which of the following best shows people’s attitude towards mobile phones?
A. Mobile phones help people deal with the emergency.
B. Mobile phones bring convenience as well little secret to people.
C. Mobile phones are so important and should be encouraged.
D. Mobile phones are part of people’s life.
3. Which points do you think support the idea that phones improve people’s life?
a. Point 1. b. Point2. c. Point3. d. Point 4. e. Point 5.
A. c, d     B. a, e        C. a, c           D. b, e
4.It is possible to talk to several complete strangers simultaneously through .
A. the TV screen                          B. a fax machine
C. the phone line hooked up to the computer    D. a microphone
5.The best heading for the passage is .
A. phone Power B. Kinds of Phone
C. how to Use Phones D. Advantage of Phones

IV 阅读理解(每小题2分,共24分)                 
I travel a lot in my work, and what I dislike about my job is eating alone. It always makes me feel lonely to see others laughing and talking. So, room service for several nights was a better choice for me.
After having room service three nights at a hotel in Houston, however, I needed to get out of my room. Although the restaurant opened at 6:30, I arrived at 6:25. The waiter at the front desk made a comment about my “being there really early”. I explained my dislike of eating alone in restaurants. He then seated me at a lovely table and asked me whether I would mind if he sat down with me for a while.
I was glad! He sat and talked with me about his career goals and the difficulty of being at work on nights, weekends and holidays. He said he hadn’t enough time to be with his family. After 15 minutes, he saw some customers at the front desk and excused himself. I noticed that before he went to the front desk, he stopped in the kitchen for a moment.  
Then another waiter came out of the kitchen and had a wonderful chat with me. Before I left that night, some other waiters, even the cook, had come out of the kitchen and sat with me!
When I asked for my bill about one hour later, all the people who had sat down with me came over in a big group to my table, and presented me with a red rose. And I cried! What had begun as a lonely night ended as a beautiful experience.

三、阅读理解(共20小题;每小题2分,满分40分)

阅读下面短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A.B.C和D)中,选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项的标号涂黑。

A

I remember a day when I was a little kid. I was making a sandwich in the kitchen when I noticed the date on one of the wine bottles.

"Dad, dad!" I cried. "This wine is too old to drink."

"Son, hold on," he said.

"No, you can't drink this tonight! This bottle of wine was made 10 years ago."

"Wait, let me tell you..."

"Would you like me to throw it away for you?" I asked.

"Son, wait a second," he said. "Son, some wines get better over time. The longer you wait to drink it, the better it will be. Although this may seem strange, it is true."

When I was young, I didn't have any understanding of what this meant, but now, this would have been very helpful to remember as I went through my teenage years.

In our society, we forget this simple role: The longer you wait for certain things, the better they will be. But we want the best job as quickly as possible; we want to graduate from college in as few years as possible; we even speed through our homework just to chat with friends. When we do this, we lose something of great importance.

We all want to get to the next step so quickly that perhaps we don't get ready enough to get there. This has a negative effect on our society. When trying to go to the right college, we will do anything to get in and when we rush through our class-work, we may not study enough for the test, and end up failing. We need to be ready for whatever comes, ready for the unexpected. Wine gets better over time, so do the things in our paths of life.

56.Why did the author tell his father not to drink the bottle of wine?

A.Because it smelt terrible.

B.Because it was mixed with something else.

C.Because his father drank too much that night.

D.Because it had been kept for years.

57.What the author's father said______.

A.made the author puzzled when he was a little child

B.was too simple a rule to be meaningful to the author

C.threw the author into deep thought then

D.was an excuse to drink the wine

58.In the author's opinion, if we do things too quickly we will______.

A.do it better                                                                 B.save much time

C.graduate from college more quickly          D.miss something useful to us in life

59.Which of the following best reflects the main idea of the passage?

A.Well begun is half done.                       B.More haste, less speed.

C.Failure is the mother of success.       D.Nothing is impossible to a willing heart.
