Looking at a computer means reading a screen, which is decidedly not the way most people want to read a book, particularly the last one.Reading text on a computer screen is limiting and tiresome. You can't see where you are or how far you have to go. You can't turn the pages quickly without reading much to compare parts of the text or to see what your eye finds freely. You can't comfortably carry a computer screen around with you, to bed, to the beach, or to the bathroom.You can't collect computer screens, or cover them beautifully, or place them on bookshelves in the way the English writer Anthony Powell described in his book.But hold everything! The news is far from bad. The book of the future described to me on a visit to MIT is really a book, just like any other. It has a cover that could be made of anything you want, and hundreds of pages you can turn one at a time or turn over quickly.The key to this book is something called electronic (电子的) ink, or e-ink, which can be added to the page from within instead of by a press. It was developed by Joseph Jacobson, an assistant professor at MIT.As the capacity of the book's memory grows, whole libraries may be added. Jacobson predicts that this book is able to store the entire U.S. Library of Congress (国会), whose holdings number more than 17 million books.Yet the book would still have the familiar advantages of a book, Jacobson says. You could turn off its power and carry it anywhere.Jacobson greatly admires the usual book. "After all," he added, "if books had been invented after the computer, they would have been considered a big breakthrough. They run on very low power at a very low cost."Every book ever published in a single copy? Will this really happen? How soon could the last book be available? "A first model of it with just a few pages could be put together in two to three years, with one of 400 pages taking a year or two longer," Jacobson said.How much will it cost? Jacobson says the final book will probably sell for $2 to $4 for each reusable page or $500 to $1,000 for a book, although he is working on ways to reduce costs further.Will books no longer equip a room? It looks as if they won't, thoughpeople will continue to collect old-fashioned books.1.In the third sentence of Paragraph 2 the word "decidedly" means________.A. certainlyB. importantlyC. necessarilyD. easily2.One can imagine that in his book, the English writer Anthony Powelldescribed a book as ________.A. a thing of beautyB. a piece of breadC. a valuable thingD. a waste3.The sentence "But hold everything!" in Paragraph 4 means"________".A. Please try to get everythingB. Please don't not jump to conclusionsC. Please have a look at everythingD. Please control yourself4.In what sense is the last book different from regular books?A. It has no pages.B. It has no ink.C. It can't be carried to whatever place you like.D. It has memory.5.Which of the following is True according to the passage?A. The last book is much more expensive than a regular book.B. Regular books will be thrown away as garbage.C. The last book is no match for the regular book.D. Relatively, it takes a longer time to publish a last book.Questions 6 to 10 are based on the following passage or dialog. British writer Arthur C. Clarke's science fiction novel Childhood's End describes a future world society. The following is part of his description.By the standards (标准) of all earlier ages, it was Utopia (a perfect society). Ignorance, disease, poverty(贫穷), and fear had actually stopped existing. The memory of war was fading into the past as a bad dream disappears with the dawn; soon it would lie outside the experience of all living men.With the energies of society going to construction sites, the face of the world had been remade. It was a new world. Production had become largely automatic: the robot (机器人) factories produced goods in such unending production lines that all the ordinary goods of life were practically free. Men worked in the interest of the comfort they wanted; or they did not work at all.It was one world, although the old names of the old countries were still used. There was no one on earth who could not speak English, who could not read, who was not within range of a television set, who could not visit the other side of the world within twenty-four hours.Crime had almost disappeared. It had become both unnecessary and impossible. When no one lacks anything, there is no point in stealing.One of the most obvious changes had been a slowing down of the mad speed that had so described (赋予......特征) the twentieth century. Life was freer than it had been for generations. It, therefore, had less competing for the few, but more peace for the many. Western man had relearned-what the rest of the world had never forgotten-that there was nothing wrong with relaxing (休闲) as long as it did not fall into ordinary laziness.Education was now much more thorough and much more common. Few people left college before twenty-and that was merely the first stage, since they usually returned again at twenty-five for at least three more years, after travel and experience had broadened their minds. Even then, they would probably take review courses at times for the rest of their lives in the subjects that particularly interested them.Another great change was the great moving ability of the new society. Thanks to the efficiency of air transport, everyone was free to go anywhere at a moment's notice. There was more room in the skies thanthere had ever been on the roads, and the twenty-first century had repeated, to a large degree, the great American achievement of putting a nation on wheels. It had given wings to the world.There were plenty of specialists, but few creative workers broadening the areas of human knowledge. Curiosity remained, and the free time to enjoy it, but the heart had been taken out of original scientific research. It seemed fruitless to spend a lifetime searching for secrets that the great creators had probably found ages before...6.In the last sentence of the first paragraph the word "it" refers to________.A. the memory of warB. the warC. the bad dreamD. the past7.The phrase "With the energies of society going to construction sites"(Para. 3) means that ________.A. when workers go to the building sitesB. when workers put all their efforts into buildingC. when workers put all their energies into building factoriesD. when workers use all the energies on the construction sitescation in the future will be ________.A. more interestingB. particularly interestingC. more common but less freeD. more complete and free9.Which of the following is NOT true of the future world according tothe passage?A. People will seldom experience war.B. There will be no stealing.C. English will be the language everyone speaks.D. People will not be suffering from any kind of illness.。

Looking at a computer means reading a screen, which isdecidedly not the way most people want to read a book, particularly thelast one.Reading text on a computer screen is limiting and tiresome. You can't seewhere you are or how far you have to go. You can't turn the pages quicklywithout reading much to compare parts of the text or to see what your eyefinds freely. You can't comfortably carry a computer screen around withyou, to bed, to the beach, or to the bathroom.You can't collect computer screens, or cover them beautifully, or placethem on bookshelves in the way the English writer Anthony Powelldescribed in his book.But hold everything! The news is far from bad. The book of the futuredescribed to me on a visit to MIT is really a book, just like any other. Ithas a cover that could be made of anything you want, and hundreds ofpages you can turn one at a time or turn over quickly.The key to this book is something called electronic (电子的) ink, or e-ink, which can be added to the page from within instead of by a press. Itwas developed by Joseph Jacobson, an assistant professor at MIT.As the capacity of the book's memory grows, whole libraries may beadded. Jacobson predicts that this book is able to store the entire U.S.Library of Congress (国会), whose holdings number more than 17 millionbooks.Yet the book would still have the familiar advantages of a book, Jacobsonsays. You could turn off its power and carry it anywhere.Jacobson greatly admires the usual book. "After all," he added, "if bookshad been invented after the computer, they would have been considered abig breakthrough. They run on very low power at a very low cost." Every book ever published in a single copy? Will this really happen? How soon could the last book be available? "A first model of it with just a few pages could be put together in two to three years, with one of 400 pages taking a year or two longer," Jacobson said.How much will it cost? Jacobson says the final book will probably sell for$2 to $4 for each reusable page or $500 to $1,000 for a book, although heis working on ways to reduce costs further.people will continue to collect old-fashioned books.1.In the third sentence of Paragraph 2 the word "decidedly" means________.A. certainlyB. importantlyC. necessarilyD. easily2.One can imagine that in his book, the English writer Anthony Powelldescribed a book as ________.A. a thing of beautyB. a piece of breadC. a valuable thingD. a waste3.The sentence "But hold everything!" in Paragraph 4 means"________".A.

Relatively, it takes a longer time to publish a last book. Questions 6 to 10 are based on the following passage or dialog.British writer Arthur C. Clarke's science fiction novel Childhood's End describes a future world society. The following is part of his description.By the standards (标准) of all earlier ages, it was Utopia (a perfect society). Ignorance, disease, poverty(贫穷), and fear had actually stopped existing. The memory of war was fading into the past as a bad dream disappears with the dawn; soon it would lie outside the experience of all living men.With the energies of society going to construction sites, the face of the world had been remade. It was a new world. Production had become largely automatic: the robot (机器人) factories produced goods in such unending production lines that all the ordinary goods of life were practically free. Men worked in the interest of the comfort they wanted; or they did not work at all.It was one world, although the old names of the old countries were still used. There was no one on earth who could not speak English, who could not read, who was not within range of a television set, who could not visit the other side of the world within twenty-four hours.Crime had almost disappeared. It had become both unnecessary and impossible. When no one lacks anything, there is no point in stealing. One of the most obvious changes had been a slowing down of the mad speed that had so described (赋予......特征) the twentieth century. Life was freer than it had been for generations. It, therefore, had less competing for the few, but more peace for the many. Western man had relearned-what the rest of the world had never forgotten-that there was nothing wrong with relaxing (休闲) as long as it did not fall into ordinary laziness.Education was now much more thorough and much more common. Few people left college before twenty-and that was merely the first stage, since they usually returned again at twenty-five for at least three more years, after travel and experience had broadened their minds. Even then, they would probably take review courses at times for the rest of their livesin the subjects that particularly interested them.Thanks to the efficiency of air transport, everyone was free to goanywhere at a moment's notice. There was more room in the skies thanthere had ever been on the roads, and the twenty-first century hadrepeated, to a large degree, the great American achievement of putting anation on wheels. It had given wings to the world.There were plenty of specialists, but few creative workers broadening theareas of human knowledge. Curiosity remained, and the free time to enjoyit, but the heart had been taken out of original scientific research. Itseemed fruitless to spend a lifetime searching for secrets that the greatcreators had probably found ages before...6.In the last sentence of the first paragraph the word "it" refers to________.A. the memory of warB. the warC. the bad dreamD. the past7.The phrase "With the energies of society going to construction sites"(Para. 3) means that ________.A. when workers go to the building sitesB. when workers put all their efforts into buildingC. when workers put all their energies into building factoriesD. when workers use all the energies on the construction sitescation in the future will be ________.A. more interestingB. particularly interestingC. more common but less freeD. more complete and free9.Which of the following is NOT true of the future world according tothe passage?A.
