Personal computers and the Internet give people new choices about how to spend their time.

Some may use this freedom to share less time with certain friends or family members, but new technology will also let them stay in closer touch with those they care most about. I know this from personal experience.

E-mail makes it easier to work at home, which is where I now spend most weekends and evenings. My working hours aren’t necessarily much shorter than they once were but I spend fewer of them at the office. This lets me share more time with my younger daughter than I might have if she’d been born before electronic mail became such a practical tool.

The Internet also makes it easy to share thoughts with a group of friends. Say you do something fun—see a great movie perhaps—and there are four or five friends who might want to hear about it. If you call each one, you may tire of telling the story.

With E-mail, you just write one note about your experience, at your convenience, and address it to all the friends who you think might be interested. They can read your message when they have time, and read only as much as they want to. They can reply at their convenience, and you can read what they have to say at your convenience.

E-mail is also an inexpensive way to stay in close touch with people who live far away. More than a few parents use E-mail to keep in touch, even daily touch, with their children off at college.

We just have to keep in mind that computers and the Internet offer another way of staying in touch. They don’t take the place of any of the old ways.

The purpose of this passage is to ________.

explain how to use the Internet       

describe the writer’s joy of keeping up with the latest technology

tell the merits(价值) and usefulness of the Internet

introduce the reader to basic knowledge about personal computers and the Internet

The use of E-mail has made it possible for the writer to ________.

  A. spend less time working         B. have more free time with his child

  C. work at home on weekends      D. work at a speed comfortable to him

According to the writer, E-mail has an obvious advantage over the telephone because E-mail helps one ________.

A. reach a group of people at one time conveniently

B. keep one’s communication as personal as possible

C. pass on much more information than the latter

D. get in touch with one’s friends faster than telephone.

The best title for this passage is _________.

Computer: New Technological Advances

Internet: New Tool to Maintain Good Friendship

Computer Have Made Life Easier

Internet Have helped us to communicate

It’s 2035. You have a job, a family and you’re about 40 years old. Welcome to your future life.      Getting ready for work, you pause in front of the mirror, “Turn red,” you say. Your shirt changes from sky blue to deep red. Tiny preprogrammed electronic(智能电子元件) is rearranged in your shirt to change its color. Looking into the mirror, you find it hard to believe that you are 40. You look much younger. With amazing advances in medicine, people in your generation may live to be 150 years old. You’re not even middle-aged.

   As you go into the kitchen and prepare to pour your breakfast cereal into a bowl, you hear: “To lose weight, you shouldn’t eat that,” from your shoes. They read the tiny electronic code(电 子源码)on the cereal box to find out the nutrition details. You decide to listen to your shoes. “Kitchen, what can I have for breakfast?” A list of possible food appears on the counter as kitchen checks its food supplies.

  “Ready for your trip to space?” you ask your son and daughter. In 2005 only specially trained astronauts went into space—and very few of them. Today anyone can go to space for day trip or longer vacation. Your best friend even works in space. Handing your children three strawberries each, you add, “The doctor said you need these for space travel.” Thanks to medical advice, vaccination shots(防疫针) are a thing of the past. Ordinary foods contain specific vaccines. With the berries in their mouths, the kids head for the front door.

   It’s time for you to go to work. Your car checks your fingerprints and unlocks the doors. “My office. Autopilot,” you command. Your car drives itself down the road and moves smoothly into traffic on the highway. You sit back and unroll your e-newspaper. The latest news downloads and fills the viewer. Looking through the pages, you watch the news as video films rather than read it.

 What changes the color of your shirt?

A. The mirror.     B. The shirt itself.      C. The counter.        D. The medicine.

 How do the shoes know that you shouldn’t eat the breakfast cereal?

A. By pouring the breakfast into a bowl.   

B. By listening to the doctor’s advice.

C. By testing the food supplies in the kitchen.  

D. By checking the nutrition details of the food.

 The strawberries the children eat serve as ______.

A. breakfast     B. lunch                C. vaccines          D. nutrition

 How is the text organized?

A. In order of time                   B. In order of frequency.

C. In order of preference(偏爱).      D. In order of importance
