Question

【题目】The Internet has opened up a whole new online world for us to meet, chat and go where we’ve never been before.

But just as in face to face communication, there are some rules of behavior that should be followed when on line. 【1】 Imagine how you’d feel if you were in the other person’s shoes.

For anything you’re about to send: ask yourself, “Would I say this to the person’s face?” if the answer is no, rewrite and reread. 【2】

If someone in the chat room is rude to you, your instinct （本能）is to fire back in the same manner. But try not to do so. 【3】 If it was caused by a disagreement with another member, try to fix the situation by politely discussing it. Remember to respect the beliefs and opinions of others in the chat room.

【4】 Offer advice when asked by newcomers, as they may not be sure what to do or how to communicate. When someone makes a mistake, whether it’s a stupid question or an unnecessarily long answer, be kind about it. If it’s a small mistake, you may not need to say anything. Even if you feel strongly about it, think twice before saying anything. Having good manners yourself doesn’t give you license to correct everyone else. 【5】 At the same time, if you find you are wrong, be sure to correct yourself and apologize to those that you have offended.

It is not polite to ask others personal questions such as their age, sex and marital status. Unless you know the person very well, and you are both comfortable with sharing personal information, don’t ask such questions.

A. It’s natural that there some people who speak rudely or make mistakes online.

B. Repeat the process till you feel sure that you’d feel comfortable saying the words to the person’s face.

C. Everyone was new to the network once.

D. The basic rule is simple: treat others in the same way you would want to be treated.

E. When you send short messages to a person online, you must say something beautiful to hear.

F. You should either ignore the person, or use your chat software to block their messages.

G. If you do decide to tell someone about a mistake, point it out politely.

【解析】

试题分析：本文讲述了在网络上与别人交往时要注意的事项并提出了几点建议。

【1】D考查理解概括能力。根据前一句“there are some rules of behavior that should be followed when on line”可知在网络上有一些必须遵守的行为规则，故空缺处应该讲述的是哪些规则。故D项表述“The basic rule is simple: treat others in the same way you would want to be treated.”符合语境，故选D。

【2】B 考查理解概括能力。根据前面的“rewrite and reread”可知，为了不让对方感到不舒服，要反复推敲所说的话。故B项表述“Repeat the process till you feel sure that you’d feel comfortable saying the words to the person’s face.”符合语境，故选B。

【3】F 根据前面“If someone in the chat room is rude to you, your instinct （本能）is to fire back in the same manner. But try not to do so.”如果有人对你粗鲁，你的本能就是以同样的方式反击，但尽量不要这样做。你可以忽略他或者屏蔽他。故F 项表述“You should either ignore the person, or use your chat software to block their messages.”符合语境，故选F。

【4】C根据下句“offer advice when asked by newcomers”可知当新来者提问时要主动提供建议，因为每个人都曾经是新手。故C项表述“Everyone was new to the network once.”符合语境，故选C。

【5】G 根据“Having good manners yourself doesn’t give you license to correct everyone else”可知有礼貌并不意味着随便纠正他人。如果你觉得纠正他人的错误，要有礼貌地指出。故G项表述“If you do decide to tell someone about a mistake, point it out politely.”符合语境，故选G。
