    题目列表(包括答案和解析)

    阅读理解。
           Imagine you receive an e-mail that looks something like this: ARE YOU GOING TO CLASS TODAY?
    How does reading this message make you feel? Why did the sender use all capital letters? Was he or she
    angry, or did that person just forget to turn off the 'Caps Lock' on the computer? The fact is, this e-mail
    'sounds' like the writer is shouting because using all capital letters in an e-mail is usually the way that people
    shout online.
            Knowing when and when not to use capital letters is just one example of online etiquette (规矩) often
    called netiquette. Virginia Shea's book, Netiquette, lists a basic set of dos and don'ts for communicating
    (交流) rightly with others online. Following are some of her suggestions. 
            First, always remember that you are sending messages to a real person, not just to a computer. Don't
    type anything that you wouldn't say to someone's face. Also, remember that the person who receives your
    message cannot hear the tone of your voice, or see the expression on your face, so make sure your meaning
    is clear. 
           Don't do anything online that you wouldn't do in real life. Don't take anything without paying for it,
    unless it's free. Don't use information that someone else has written, and say it's yours. Don't read other
    people's e-mail-you wouldn't open your next-door neighbor's mailbox and open their mail, right? Do share
    your knowledge of the Internet with others. It's a big place with lots of information, and there are many new
    things to discover.
           Remember that people think about you by your words as well as your actions, so do try to write well.
    Good writing skills, as well as correct grammar and spelling, do matter. Send polite, well-written e-mail
    messages to others. If you're uncertain about how to spell a word or which phrase to use, look it up. There
    are lots of helpful books and websites.
            It's okay to express your opinions online in forums like chat rooms or message boards, for example
    "MSN" or "QQ", but don't start arguments with people. 'Flame wars' (网上论争) in online discussions can
    be interesting to read, but are often unfair (不公平) to other members of the group. Express your ideas, but
    remember that fighting (打架) on or offline is just not right. 
            When you're online, just as in 'real' life, try to respect other people's space, privacy, and feelings.
    Remember, you're not the only one traveling on this highway!
    1. Using all capital letters in an e-mail means _______.
    [     ]
    A. shouting
    B. laughing
    C. pardoning
    D. talking
    2. Make sure your meaning in e-mails is clear because _______.
    [     ]
    A. the receiver can't see you or hear you
    B. the e-mails are usually very short
    C. it is easy to cause "flame wars"
    D. e-mails are difficult to understand

    3. From the last paragraph, we know that _______.

    [     ]
    A. besides us, there are many other people traveling on a highway
    B. when we are online, we should think of other people and leave them enough time and room alone
    C. we should follow the traffic rules when we are traveling on a highway
    D. If we are online, we are in a real life
    4. What is the best title for the passage?
    [     ]
    A. The Information Highway
    B. How to Write a Good E-mail
    C. Netiquette-Internet Dos and Don'ts
    D. Don't Use Capital Letters In E-mails

    Reading Comprehension.

    　　Candy has written an e-mail message to her friend Sandy. Read the e-mail message and answer the questions.

    　　Dear Sandy,

    　　Today is my 12th birthday. I phoned you fifteen minutes ago but nobody answered the phone. I know you check your e-mail every morning so I hope you get this message. I want to invite you to my birthday meal today.

    　　I am going shopping with Amy and Clara this morning. Then we will have lunch. Please join us for lunch if you can.

    　　My birthday meal will be held at McDonald's in Kowloon Bay at 1 p. m.. We are meeting at the entrance to the restaurant at 12:45. We will wait for you for fifteen minutes before we go inside. I do hope you can come. The birthday meal will be a lot of fun. Let me tell you what will happen.

    　　First of all, we will eat some food. We will all share our favourite McDonald's dishes. We will order hamburgers, chicken nuggets and, of course, lots of fries. For dessert we will have hot apple pie and ice-cream sundaes. The food will be delicious!

    　　After the meal, we will each get a bag of little presents to take away with us and everyone will sing “Happy Birthday”. I think we will have a good time. McDonald's is my favourite restaurant and I am so happy that my mother has arranged this birthday meal for me.

    　　I nearly forgot something. At 2:30 p.m., we are going to watch a film together. The cinema is near the restaurant, so we won't have to walk very far. The film will finish at 4:30 p.m.. Afterwards, we will have something to drink at the fast-food restaurant next to the cinema.

    　　I really hope you can join us－it will be a fun afternoon!

    Yours,

    Candy

     Every day, you carry a lot of books around in your schoolbag. They are heavy. You might wonder if there’s some way to take the weight off your shoulders. The answer is an e-book reader.

    E-book readers are digital machines similar to laptops （手提电脑）, but smaller and lighter. You can read an e-book on one just like reading a real paperback （纸制书）. This small device （装置） can hold over 1,000 books, and you can easily carry it anywhere.

    At present, e-book readers don’t carry e-textbooks. But you can use them to read novels and magazines. The most successful e-book reader right now is the Kindle, made by the US book-selling website Amazon.

    Last Tuesday, a new e-reader called Nook came on the market. It was developed by the US chain bookstore Barnes & Noble. It might become a big hit with book lovers.

    Different from other e-book readers, the Nook allows you to lend your e-book to a friend for up to two weeks. You simply e-mail the book from your Nook and your friend can read it on any device with the Barnes & Noble eReader software – their own e-book reader, computer or cell phone . After two weeks, they can no longer read the book and will return it to you.

    The Nook has other new features too. You read in black and white on the main screen, just like with Kindle. But the Nook also has a color touch screen below the main screen. It allows you to flip （翻页） through the book or magazine you’re reading. It goes black to save power when you’re not using it.

    The Nook also comes with a wireless Internet connection （无线上网）. Nook users in the United States can go to Barnes & Noble stores and use their e-books to browse （浏览） through thousands of e-books and magazines for free.

    1. We can NOT tell from the story that e-book readers are _____.

    A．digital machines                               B．similar to laptops

    C．smaller than laptops                         D．cheaper than paperbacks

    2. Which of the following is the most successful e-book reader?

    A．Amazon.          B．The Kindle.          C．The Nook.          D．Barnes & Noble.

    3. Different from other e-readers, the Nook allows people to _____.

    A．turn pages freely                      B．send text messages

    C．surf the Internet and buy books         D．lend the e-book to friends for a certain time

    4. What does the word “features” in the 6th paragraph mean?

    A．外貌            B．特点                 C．价格                D．形式

    5. What does the story mainly tell us?

    A．A new trend for reading.

    B．What the Nook could offer people.

    C．E-books will take the place of paperbacks.

    D．Two most important e-book readers companies.

    　　Our first waitress, Janet, was very polite and helpful．She gave us free drinks for waiting so long．Our food also came quickly and looked fresh and tasty．When my wife had eaten most of her meal, she found a dead cockroach(蟑螂)in her vegetables．She was shocked and wanted to leave．At first, the waitress told us it was a piece of garlic(蒜)．When we told her that garlic does not have legs, she apologized(道歉)and took the food away．

    　　We asked for the bill, expecting not to pay for my wife’s meal．Nobody came．After 15 minutes, I asked to see the manager．The head waiter told us that you were on holiday．I complained again about the horrible cockroach．He told me Janet had finished work．He didn’t believe my story and gave me a bill for three meals．I with him but was made to pay．

    　　The waitress, Janet, was always friendly, but I would like an apology(道歉)from your impolite head waiter and a full refund(退款)for our meal．It cost $68．Until then, I will not be eating at your restaurant or recommending(推荐)it to anyone．
