短文理解2

"Are you the happiest man in the world?" When asked this question, most people would say no. They don’t think they are the happiest of the people around them. They would point out that one

of their neighbors is happier than anyone of them , "Doctor Frank has a career himself. His wife is the most beautiful and well-educated lady in the community. No, I don't think I am happier than Doctor Frank. At least my career is not as successful as his. "

Most of us compare ourselves with anyone we think is happier -a relative , a close friend or, often , someone we even hardly know. lance met a young man who struck me as particularly successful and happy. He spoke of his love for his beautiful wife and their daughters , and of his joy at being a TV talk-show host. I remember thinking he was one of the lucky few for whom everything goes effortlessly right. Once we talked about the Internet , he is grateful for its existence. He told me , because he could look up information

on diabetes(糖尿病)一the terrible disease that made his wife suffer and could possibly be passed down to his lovely children. When I heard this , I felt like a fool for taking it for granted that nothing unhappy existed in his life.

This made me think a lot and I soon drew one of the most significant conclusions about happiness: there is little relation between the situations of peoples lives and how happy they are. We all know people who are richer and have an easier life than others , yet they are essentially unhappy. And we know people who have suffered a great deal but generally remain happy. Unhappiness is like looking at something and fixing on even the smallest fault. As a bald man told me , "Whenever I enter a room , all I see is hair."

It is hard for us to give up the image of "being perfect. " As nothing is perfect, anyone can be unhappy. It takes no courage or effort to be unhappy. True happiness lies in struggling to be happy. Questions 31-35:

31. According to the author, most people would _________they are the happiest in the world

A. doubt whether

B. like to think that

C. think about whether

D. not think that

32. The author thinks that people quite often compare themselves with _________.

A. a close friend

B. a relative

C. anyone they think is happier

D. someone we even hardly know

33. What is NOT true about the young man the author once met with?

A. He is a TV talk show host.

B. Everything goes effortlessly right for him.

C. He loves his wife and their daughters.

D. He is very happy with his work and his life.

34. After talking with the young man about the Internet, the author realizes _________.

A. that he is mistaken in thinking nothing unhappy existed in the latter' s life

B. how grateful the young man is for the existence of the Internet

C. how terribly the young man's wife suffer from the disease -diabetes

D. that there is a lot of information one can look up in the Internet

35. The significant conclusion the author draws about happiness is that_________.

A. it is hard for us to give up the image of "being perfect"

B. unhappiness is like looking at something and fixing on even the smallest fault

C. we know people who have suffered a great deal but generally remain happy

D. true happiness lies in struggling to he happy

Poll reveals TV news too negative

A recent Time/CNN poll in the USA has discovered that 75 % of people agreed that the news media is "sensationalist" , 63% found it "too negative" and 73% said they are "sceptical about the accuracy" of the news they are receiving.

Local news programmes in the USA are so dominated by stories of violence and crime that other topics like government , education and the environment are left with little airtime. Network broadcaster John Walters claimed , "This lack of information has resulted in negative feelings towards the media. "

Crime reports , which often serve as lead stories , make up an average of 30. 2% of news time on local TV news programmes in the USA. Media researcher Bob Smith reported , "53% of crime reports are about murder , but it is one of the least frequently committed crimes. " Another media study revealed that 42 % of all local TV news broadcasts are stories about crime , disaster and war. One possible reason for this is that local television news is ratings driven. Some market research suggests that viewers like to see stories of crime and violence , which increases the ratings of newscasts. Higher ratings mean higher advertising revenues. Mike Adams, a television executive , explained, "The increase in crime reports is because , on average, almost half the money a local station makes comes from news. "

Many experts believe a steady diet of violence-oriented news broadcasts has serious effects. A spokesman for the National Television Violence Committee stated, "There are three main risks associated with viewing media violence. People learn aggressive behaviour. They become desensitised to real-world violence. These lead to an increased fear of being a victim of violence , resulting in mistrust of others. "

Questions 36-40:

36. The majority of people polled think that the news media is accurate.

37. There is not enough time to talk about a wider range of subjects on the news.

38. 53 % of all crimes committed are murders.

39. Advertising companies invest in TV programmes with high ratings.

40. TV stations make too much money from news.

36.F 37.T 38.F 39. T 40. NG

(1)因特网与现代社会(2)因特网对生活的影响

Sample:

The Internet has become a symbol of modern society.

In fact , we can do many things more easily and more cheaply using the Internet. So , I cannot imagine what society would be like without the Internet.

短文理解2

Blocks of "high-rise" flats have been built in large numbers in London and in many other big cities. Just after the Second World War these big, twenty-to-thirty storey buildings, hundreds of feet in height, were thought to be the ideal solution to the housing problem. For on the one hand, there was severe housing shortage, but on the other hand, there was lack of space to build houses in urban areas. Blocks of "high-rise" flats seemed, at first, to be able to solve the problem, since they can offer space for more families to live in on less land. The beautiful, modern apartments in the high-rises were much sought after by people who lived downtown. Hundreds of the vast blocks had been built before anyone began to doubt about whether they were good solutions or not. Are they suitable places for people, children especially, to live in? A well-known British architect, who personally designed many of these buildings, now believes that the high-rises may well make those people who have been housed in them suffer a great deal. Evidence has been collected by social workers, which suggests that people do suffer. They complain about severe loneliness and deep depression living within these great towers. People also talk about lack of communication with others, no easy access to a playground for children, no chances for adults to get familiarized with each other. Many people say that they have lived next door to each other for years in the same building, but they never know who their neighbors are. Some experts say that a large number of people living in the high-rises suffer from mental disorder and have even developed criminal tendencies. As a result of these new discoveries, plans for new high-rise blocks are being reconsidered. We are now building up many high-rises in big cities such as Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou. Perhaps we should also reconsider the idea too.

31. There was a big housing problem after the Second World War ____________ .

A. in London

B. in the rural areas

C. in many big cities

D. in many countries

32. Blocks of "high-rise" flats were thought to be the ideal solution to the housing problem, because ___________.

A. there was severe housing shortage in big cities

B. there was less and less land to build houses in big cities

C. they were modern and beautiful and much sought after by city people

D. they were built on less land and were able to house a lot more people

33.The sentence "Hundreds of the vast blocks had been built before anyone began to doubt about whether they were good solutions or not." means___________.

A. it was not until hundreds of the vast blocks had been built that people began to doubt

about whether they were good solutions or not

B. hundreds of the vast blocks had not been built until anyone began to doubt about

whether they were good solutions or not

C. people began to doubt about whether they were good solutions or not before hundreds

of the vast blocks had been built

D. since the first blocks were designed, some people have been doubtful about whether

they were good solutions or not

34. The author takes a well-known British architect as an example to show us that

.

A. he is very proud of his designing of many of the high-rises

B. even a well-known designer of the high-rises believes they are no good for people

C. even a well-known designer of the high-rises suffers personally

D. high-rises are well-designed, modern buildings which meet people's needs

35. What is the greatest danger for people living in a high-rise according to some experts?

A. Lack of communication with others.

B. No easy access to a playground for children.

C. Developing criminal tendencies.

D. Not knowing the neighbors.

The Internet has become a part of everyday life for most Britons, says a report published this week by market research company Netinfo.

Just over 70% of people questioned for the survey said the net had become essential. The survey reveals that emailing friends and others is the nation's favourite Internet activity. It also found that people spend an average of seven hours a week online, visiting 13 different websites in seven days. But 10% of all those who surf the net are doing it for more than 20 hours a week.

Just over 2,000 adults in Britain were interviewed for the report. The study found almost 19 million people in the UK - four in ten adults - regularly went online. But the number of new users has slowed down. Numbers online grew by just 11% over the past 12 months compared with 33% the previous year.

The report also reveals the increasing importance of the silver surfer. According to the report the number of older people online grew by more than 40% over the past year. People aged over 55 now make up 17% of the UK Internet population.

The survey also discovered that many workers surf the net for personal reasons while at work. Almost three-quarters of workers with Internet access admitted using it for pleasure, usually to email friends and family. According to Bill Wills, author of the survey, many employees expect some flexibility, and most employers are willing to accept this. 'However, employers are less likely to be understanding, if you're downloading movies or introducing an unfriendly virus to your company network,' he said.

短文理解2

"Are you the happiest man in the world?" When asked this question, most people would say no. They don't think they are the happiest of the people around them. They would point out that one of their neighbors is happier than anyone of them," Doctor Frank has a career himself. His wife is the most beautiful and well--educated lady in the community. No, I don't think I am happier than Doctor Frank. At least my career is not as successful as his."

Most of us compare ourselves with anyone we think is happier一a relative, a close friend or, often, someone we even hardly know. I once met a young man who struck me as particularly successful and happy. He spoke of his love for his beautiful wife and their daughters, and of his joy at being a TV talk-show host. I remember thinking he was one of the lucky few for whom everything goes effortlessly right. Once we talked about the Internet, he is grateful for its existence. He told me, because he could look up information on diabetes(糖尿病)--the terrible disease that

made his wife suffer and could possibly be passed down to his lovely children. When I heard this, I felt like a fool for taking it for granted that nothing unhappy existed in his life.

This made me think a lot and I soon drew one of the most significant conclusions about happiness: there is little relation between the situations of people's lives and how happy they are. We all know people who are richer and have an easier life than others, yet they are essentially unhappy. And we know people who have suffered a great deal but generally remain happy. Unhappiness is like looking at something and fixing on even the smallest fault. As a bald man told me, "Whenever I enter a room, all I see is hair."

It is hard for us to give up the image of "being perfect. "As nothing is perfect, anyone can be unhappy. It takes no courage or effort to be unhappy. True happiness lies in struggling to be happy.

31. According to the author, most people would they are the happiest world.

A. doubt whether

B. like to think that

C. think about whether

D. not think that

32. The author thinks that people quite often compare themselves with

A. a close friend

B. a relative

C. anyone they think is happier

D. someone they even hardly know

33. What is not true about the young man the author once met with?

A. He is a TV talk show host.

B. Everything goes effortlessly right for him.

C. He loves his wife and their daughters.

D. He is very happy with his work and his life.

34. After talking with the young man about the Internet, the author realizes_________.

A. that he is mistaken in thinking nothing unhappy existed in the latter's life

B. how grateful the young man is for the existence of the Internet

C. how terribly the young man's wife suffer from the disease-diabetes

D. that there is a lot of information one can look up in the Internet

35.The significant conclusion the author draws about happiness is that__________.

A. it is hard for us to give up the image of "being perfect"

B. unhappiness is like looking at something and fixing on even the smallest fault

C. we know people who have suffered a great deal but generally remain happy

D. true happiness lies in struggling to be happy

When Steven King published his book Riding the Bullet, around two million downloaded it from the Internet within hours. It was the first time that an electronic had done big business, and it was a wake-up call for the publishing industry.

An electronic book, or e-book, is simply a version of a book that allows you to store display it digitally. There are already thousands of classic and best-selling titles available on websites such as https://www.doczj.com/doc/397158008.html,.

E-book technology allows you to carry around a whole library in a small unit. Y ou can highlight a word to bring up its definition or increase the font size if you have bad sight. In fact,

e-book readers are being developed for people who are visually impaired dyslexic.

Another advantage is that it lets you buy books in segments and carry them easily, which should appeal to students. In fact, the University of South Dakota is planning to give hand-held devices to all its students to help them in their studies.

However, for all this, the current e-book readers are unlikely to make it big. A report predicted sales of just 1.9 million in the next 5 years. And the reason? E-boo more difficult to read and they are just not as attractive as the printed word.

36. The writer warns that the publishing industry should be ready far an important change.

37. E-books will become much cheaper in the near future.

38. One advantage of e-books is that you can find the meanings of individual easily.

39. Students will use libraries less in the future.

40. Sales of e-books are expected to increase rapidly in the future.
