    阅读理解，阅读下面短文，掌握其大意；并从每题后所给的A，B，C和D四个选项中，选出最佳答案。

    　　After too long on the Net, even a phone call can be a shock．My boyfriend's Liverpudlian accent suddenly becomes too difficult to understand after his clear words on screen; a secretary's tone seems more rejecting than I'd imagined it would be．Time itself becomes fluid－hours become minutes, and alternately seconds stretch into days．Weekends, once a highlight of my week, are now just two ordinary days．

    　　For the last three years, since I stopped working as a producer for Charlie Rose, I have done much of my work as a tele-commuter．I submit(提交)articles and edit them by E-mail and communicate with colleagues on Internet mailing lists．My boyfriend lives in England; so much of our relationship is computer-mediated．

    　　If I desired, I could stay inside for weeks without wanting anything．I can order food, and manage my money, love and work．In fact, at times I have spent as long as three weeks alone at home, going out only to get mail and buy newspapers and groceries．I watched most of the blizzard(暴风雪)of ’96 on TV．

    　　But after a while, life itself begins to feel unreal．I start to feel as though I’ve merged(融合)with my machines, taking data in, spitting them back out, just another node(波节)on the Net．Others on line report the same symptoms．We start to strongly dislike the outside forms of socializing．It's like attending an A．A．meeting in a bar with everyone holding a half-sipped drink．We have become the Net opponents’ worst nightmare．

    　　What first seemed like a luxury, crawling from bed to computer, not worrying about hair, and clothes and face, has become an avoidance(逃避), a lack of discipline．And once you start replacing real human contact with cyber interaction, coming back out of the cave can be quite difficult．

    　　At times, I turn on the television and just leave it to chatter in the background, something that I'd never done previously．The voices of the programs relax me, but then I'm jarred by the commercials．I find myself sucked in by soap operas, or needing to keep up with the latest news and the weather．“Dateline”, “Frontline”, “Nightline, ” CNN, every possible angle of every story over and over and over, even when they are of no possible use to me．Work moves from foreground to background．

    (1)

    C．

    She watches TV a lot in order to keep up with the latest news and the weather．

    D．

    (4)

    What is the author's attitude to the computer?

    [　　]

    A．

    At first she likes it but later becomes tired of it．

    B．

    She likes it because it is very convenient．

    C．

    She dislikes it because TV is more attractive．

    D．

    She likes it because it provides an imaginary world．

    If you are planning to study in the United States, you need to consider several factors. Everyone has different opinions about where the best places to live in also; the best places to live are not always home to the best schools. Finally, many schools specialize in different areas of study. The Massachusetts Institute of Technology, for example, is a great school for computer science and technology-based fields of study, However, if you want to study oceanography, your interests may be better served by attending school in a place that is on a coastline or near the ocean.

    Now I am sure that you know which schools are considered the best in the country. So I will tell you about which states I believe are the best to live in.

    California is a nice state. Northern California specifically has very good weather. Los Angeles in southern California is another story though. Life in LA is full of excitement and fast, and sometimes—dangerous. As for me, I enjoyed the history and culture. The weather is not as perfect as California, but it is still quite nice. My favorite area of America is the Mid-west. Middle America, I think, is home to the true American sense of values. In addition, there are many good universities there.  

    Also, you need to think about your likes and dislikes and then research the various states. You like sunshine and hate snow? Then you probably won’t like the Midwest or even the Northeast. Open space, nature and peace and quiet? Then you should stay away from America’s larger cities. Are you interested in government? Then Washington D.C. is the only place for you. Whatever you decided put some thought into it. The place you live could be the difference between a great study abroad experience and a state of great suffering on earth.

    From the first paragraph we can conclude that in the U.S.A. __________.

    all colleges and universities lie in big cities

    all colleges and universities lie in beautiful places

    famous colleges and universities lie in nice places

    famous colleges and universities may not lie in nice places

    What should be considered first if you want to study in the U.S.A.?

    A. The climate.       B. The scenery.        C. The study condition.       D. The living condition.

    If you study in Middle America, you can probably _______.

    find the best universities

    feel the real character of the nation

    meet the most famous professors there

    face more difficulty

    From the last paragraph of this passage we can get to know that ________.

    Washington is the largest city in the U.S.A.

    Washington is the political center of the U.S.A.

    you can’t find sunshine in the Midwest

    you can’t find any universities out of big cities in the U.S.A.
