Question

Recently, an Internet game has become a new fashion among young office workers and students. People can “farm” on a piece of “land” and “grow”, “sell” or even “steal” “vegetables”, “flowers” and “fruits” on the Net. They earn some e-money and buy more “seeds”, “pets” and even “houses”.
Joyce interviewed some young people. Here are their opinions.
Harold: I don’t quite understand why they are so mad about the childish game. Maybe they are just not confident enough to face the real world.
Allan: I enjoy putting some “bugs” (小虫子) in my friends’’ gardens and we’ve become closer because of the game. Having fun together is the most exciting thing about it.
Laura: You know, people in the city are longing for the life in the countryside. It reduces my work pressure in the office; besides, it gives me the exciting feeling of being a “thief”.
Ivy: Well, it’s just a waste of time. Teenagers playing the game spend so many hours on it that they cannot pay more attention to their study.

1.本文主要是论述年轻人网上玩偷菜的问题，通过Allan 的回答我们可以看出他们只是为了娱乐。可以从这句话看出来Having fun together is the most exciting thing about it. A、B、D三个选项可排除，所以选C。
2.文章第一段最后一句说他们可以挣钱买更多的种子，宠物或者房子，所以他们偷了别人的菜卖了钱来经营自己的农场。所以选C。
3.通过对Harold的采访我们可以看出，他不理解为什么人们对这个游戏着迷，可能是对现实世界缺乏足够的信心。从而得知他不喜欢这个游戏。故选B
4.本题可从 Laura 的话“It reduces my work pressure in the office； ”可知她是一个办公室工人。因此选C。
