Ⅰ.阅读理解
A
The Internet brings us many advantages.
With the Internet,people can send and receive emails.On the Internet,people can skim over news.Using the Telnet,the user anywhere on the Internet can log (登录)into any other machine on which he has an account.It is possible to use the FTP (File Transfer Protocol) programme to copy files from one machine on the Internet to another.
But the Internet also brings us troubles.
Internet use seems to cause a fall in psychological (心理的)health,according to researches at Carnegie Mellon University.Even people who spent just a few hours a week on the Internet experienced more depression and loneliness than those who logged on less often,the study showed.And it wasn’t that people who were already feeling bad spent more time on the Internet,but that using the Net actually seemed to cause the bad feelings.
Researchers are puzzled over the results,which were completely opposite to what they had expected.They expected that the Net would prove socially healthier than television,since the Net allows users to choose their information and to communicate with others.
The fact that Internet use reduces time used for family and friends may be the reason for the drop in health,researchers said.Faceless,bodiless“virtual (虚拟的)”communication may be less psychologically satisfying than actual conversations,and the relationships formed through it may not be so deep.Another possibility is that exposure to the wider world through the Net makes users less satisfied with their lives.
“But it’s important to remember this is not about the technology;it’s about how it is used,”said one of the researchers.“It really points to the need for considering social factors when you design new inventions.”
(　　)1.What does the writer mainly want to tell us
A.The Internet can bring people many advantages.
B.The Internet use may cause psychological problems.
C.The Internet users are not satisfied with their lives.
D.We shouldn’t use the Internet.
(　　)2.Why are the researchers puzzled over the results
A.Because the results were completely different from what they had thought.
B.Because the Net proved socially healthier than television.
C.Because the Internet users were all healthier.
D.Because the Internet users experienced less depression and loneliness.
(　　)3.What may be the reasons why the Internet use causes a fall in psychological health
A.Internet use reduces time used for family and friends.
B.“Virtual” communication is less psychologically satisfying than actual conversations.
C.Exposure to the wider world through the Net makes users less satisfied with their lives.
D.All the above.
(　　)4.What does the underlined part in the last paragraph mean
A.What matters is not the technology but how it is used.
B.This passage is not about the technology but about how it is used.
C.We should remember to learn about the technology.
D.We should remember to learn how to use computers.
B
As Internet users increasingly depend on the Internet to store information,are people remembering less If you know your computer will save information,why store it in your own personal memory Experts are wondering if the Internet is changing what and how we remember.
In a study,Professor Betsy Sparrow conducted some experiments.She and her research team wanted to know if the Internet was changing memory.In the first experiment,they gave people 40 unimportant facts to type into a computer.The first group of people understood that the computer would save the information.
The second group understood that the computer would not save it.Later,the second group remembered the information better.People in the first group knew they could find the information again,so they did not try to remember it.
In another experiment,the researchers gave people facts to remember,and told them where to find the information on the Internet.The information was in a specific computer file folder (文件夹).Surprisingly,people later remembered the folder’s location better than the facts.When people use the Internet,they do not remember the information.Rather,they remember how to find it.This is called “transactive memory (交互记忆)”.
According to Sparrow,we are not becoming people with poor memories as a result of the Internet.Instead,computer users are developing stronger transactive memory;that is,people are learning how to organise huge quantities of information so that they are able to access it at a later date.This doesn’t mean we are becoming either more or less intelligent,but there is no doubt that the way we use memory is changing.
(　　)5.Why does the passage begin with two questions
A.To introduce the main topic.
B.To show the author’s attitude.
C.To describe how to use the Internet.
D.To explain how to store information.
(　　)6.What can we learn about the first experiment
A.Sparrow’s team typed the information into a computer.
B.The two groups remembered the information equally well.
C.The first group did not try to remember the information.
D.The second group did not understand the information.
(　　)7.In transactive memory,people 　　　.
A.keep the information in mind
B.change the quantity of information
C.organise information like a computer
D.remember how to find the information
(　　)8.What is the effect of the Internet according to Sparrow’s research
A.We are using memory differently.
B.We are becoming more intelligent.
C.We have poorer memories than before.
D.We need a better way to access information.
