  Computers are very important to modern life.Many people think that in the future computers will be used a lot in everyday life.It is thought that we won’t have to go shopping because we will be able to get most things which are sold in shops on the Internet.There will be no more books because we will be able to get all from computers.The Internet will be used to play games, see films and buy food.Most telephone calls will be made by computers, too.

  Some people are glad about these new ways of shopping and communicating.Others do not think that computers will replace our old ways.

  Let’s look at books, for example.Some people think that one day we will not read books made of paper.Instead, we will buy and read books using computers.We will read texts on small pocket computers.The computers will keep many different books in them at the same time.We won’t need to turn lots of pages and paper will be saved.Computerized(计算机化)books will be used more and more.

  Is Internet shopping such a pleasure as going to the shop?Many people say it is not.It is a pleasure to go into shops and look at things you want to buy.It is also unlikely that many people will want to read large texts on our computers.Because paper books will perhaps be more friendly.Maybe computers won’t change these two habits(习惯).

任务型阅读(共l0空;每空l分,计l0分)

阅读下列短文,根据短文中的信息完成文后表格。在答题卡标有题号的横线上,写出空缺处所填单词的正确形式。(每空一词)

THE University of St Andrews is the setting of royal(皇家的) love: on the grounds of this great Scottish university Prince William and Kate Middleton first met and fell in love.

More than that, St Andrews is Scotland's first university and one of the oldest universities in the English-speaking world. Founded in 1413 (just after Oxford and Cambridge), over 600 hundred years, the university has been well known as one of Europe's leading and most distinctive centres for teaching and research.

St Andrews is located in a small, historical town to the coast(海滨)of North East Scotland. The university itself is the perfect place for learning. On average one in three people you see in the street have something to do with the University. You start to feel very quickly that you belong.

As a student in St Andrews, playing golf is a must. With the town itself known around the world as “The Home of Golf”, the university is within minutes of the ancient golf-playing ground in the world, the Old Course, just near the sea. Students can take a break from their studies by enjoying a game of golf, and the university itself is a popular place to go.

It has one of the lowest dropout(辍学) rates in the UK---98 percent of students complete their degree. Perhaps its popularity is in part because of the fact that St Andrews is good for nearly every subject. It has long been among the UK's top five.
