Question

19．Recently we asked how you feel about calculators in school．We heard from about thirty people in twelve countries，including a large number of Chinese．For example，Turbo Zhang writes，"My brain is rusting （生锈）．Why？Because I use calculators everywhere，on my mobile phone，on my computer，etc．New technology makes us use everything except our brain．"Yes，calculators can provide us with an answer，but we may not understand it completely．Just as a student at an architectural and engineering college in China，Zhao Jingtao，says，using a calculator is"a kind of laziness"．
Critics of using calculators in school，at least until high school or university，outnumbered supporters two to one．In their opinion，calculators affect badly the thinking ways of students because they don't need to make an effort to get a result．They should work out problems with some kind of pain without computers．Then they may come to appreciate the power of these sophisticated （精密的）machines．Also，it is good to use your brain because calculators are not always available．Heroin，a math teacher in Kurdistan--Iraq，says good math skills help in life．So he believes in solving problems with a pencil until high school．
But Wenbo from China says calculators reduce careless mistakes．When they were young they couldn't use calculators．But when entering high school，they have to solve a lot of math problems．They have to use a calculator．It makes their homework easier．So he insists，"The hand-held calculators has been important in my studies and even in my life．"
And the education expert，Barnabas Nyaaba in Ghana，advises that"as we enjoy the use of calculators，let's be careful so that it does not have any bad effects on us．"
63．What's the disadvantage of using calculators？A
A．Reducing students'math skills．
B．Causing the waste of the computer resources．
C．Doing great harm to brains．
D．Leading to the terrible physical fitness．
64．Students support the calculators using because theyD．
A．can help get higher test grades       
B．can reduce the use of pencil
C．are sophisticated machines          
D．can make the study easier
65．Barnabas Nyaaba seems to believe that students shouldD．
A．try to avoid using calculators         
B．ask their math teachers for help
C．use hand-held calculators instead of computers
D．stay wise while using calculators
66．The best title of the passage can beB．
A．How can students compute without calculators？
B．What do calculators bring？
C．Why do students like using calculators？
D．Why do Chinese students dislike calculators？

Answer 1

分析 你是如何看待在学校使用计算器的呢？是支持还是反对？看看别人怎么说的吧！

解答 63-66．ADDB
63题答案：A考查细节推理，根据文章第二段的In their opinion，calculators affect badly the thinking ways of students because they don't need to make an effort to get a result．（在他们看来，计算器会严重影响学生的思维方式，因为他们不需要努力就能得到结果）可知使用计算器的不好之处是"减弱学生数学的（计算）能力"，故本题答案为A选项．
64题答案：D考查细节推理，根据文章最后一段的They have to use a calculator．It makes their homework easier．他们不得不使用计算器，这是他们的作业变得简单．可知本题答案为D选项．
65题答案：D考查细节推理，根据最后一段的最后一句as we enjoy the use of calculators，let's be careful so that it does not have any bad effects on us．因为我们喜欢使用计算器，我们就要谨慎这样的话它就不会对我们有任何的不利影响．可知本题答案为D选项"使用计算器是要明智"．
66题答案：B考查主旨大意，本文主要讲的是针对学校使用计算器做的一个调查--有人支持，给出了支持的理由；有人反对，给出了反对的理由．故文章最好的标题是"计算器带来了什么？"
