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.。

Unit 9Section A College Success Made EasyA professor might have a hundred or more students in a class, or as few as three. Whatever the number, there's usually one student from the group that stands out as being special, fantastic even. No matter how difficult a professor's question, that one special student seems to know the answer. And no matter when a paper must be given to the teacher, that one special student is able to turn in his assignment on time and without a single error whatsoever.Surely, you know a student like this. Possibly he arouses in you feelings of anger. Surely, it'd be magnificent to be like this person, but since it's not you who is doing so well, posting remarkable grades and completing schoolwork with such ease, feelings of an ger build and build.” Why can't I be more like this devil? Why can't I be the special one?" you might ask yourself. Well, I'm here to tell you that it can be you.As a university student, I'm very interested inwhat factors separate outstanding students from ones infinitely less accomplished. Instead of sitting back and hating successful students, I made itmy mission to investigate the mysterious causes of their greatness. And the fruit ofmy analysis, after speaking to many top students and their profess ors, is a group of tips that anyone can use to awaken greatness up within himself and reachnew peaks of excellence.The first tip is: don't get behind. The problem of studying, hard enough to start with, becomes almost impossible when you are trying to do three weeks' work in one weekend. Even the fastest readers have trouble doing that. And if you are behind in written work that must be turned in, the teacher who accepts it late will probably not give youfull credit. Perhaps he may not accept it at all. Most teachers believe that it isyour responsibility to do work according to a reasonable plan, and they expect you to take it seriously. Little room is given to students that are not able to manage their work and time.One major problem in school comes from the amount of material; there's so much to do that you may not know what to do first. Most people might want to do the easiest thing first, but that is a bad idea. Entertain an alternative plan! Always do what's most difficult first, just to get it out of the way. It's probably the thing that needs more of your energy. And if you do it first, you can put more energy into it. If everything seems equally easy (or equally hard), leave whatever you like best until the end. There will be more desire at half past eleven to read a political science article that sounded really interesting than to begin trying to study French irregular verbs, a necessary task that strikes you as pretty dull. Doing fun work may feel like you're granting yourself a present after doing hard work. This is the second tip.The third tip has to do with tests. Throughout our lives at school, we take thousands of tests, but we don't often stop to consider good test taking. The best test takers don't plow through their tests without cease, answering one question after the next as it comes. First, they read the whole test quickly. Second, they focus their attention, keepingtheir concentration on the material they know best, answering quickly because they are confident. Finally, they handle questions that bring them some difficulty.Adapting yourself to this method of test taking might seem weird to you, but it's likelyto profit you.Here are but three tips to greater success at school. Should you ask successful students around you, you will discover more tips. Learn from others, and employ their methods to alter your own studying, and you are sure to improve your performance at school. After some time passes, you may find that you are the "special one". And then maybe you'll notice other students either hating you or trying to discover your secrets.Unit9-A一个大学教授的学生可能多达百人或百人以上，也可能少至三人。

Listening InTask 1: The Internet on CampusThe Internet, a worldwide information network, is used at universities mainly as an information supply source. Staff supply information via the Internet and students may access it or any other publicly available information. The Internet is also useful for students to communicate with staff. Teachers may present lecture materials in lecture halls, and at the same time, they can distribute the materials for students to access from any location at any time via their computer. Such materials are preesented mainly in the form of text, still pictures and hypertext links. Students find this valuable and relevant to their needs. If they must miss a lecture, students can still keep up to date. Staff users may put up notices of conferences, maintain professional contacts, and communicate and conduct discussions with their colleagues or students. Students, on the other hand, are taught haow to use the Internet as an individual productivity tool in several courses.1. A2. D3. A4. A5. CTask 2: Surfing the NetW: Hi Bryan. Hare you doing? You look tired.M：Oh, I’m a little burnt out. I’ve been surfing the Net for the last few hours.W: Were you doing schoolwork, or was it just for pleasure?M：Well, I wanted to get some information on South America for a project I have, but I found a really interesting chat site with people from there and started chatting.W: Well, did you get the information you needed?M：Yes, but then we spent lots of time chatting about other interests.W: I see. The Internet is a wonderful place. There is so much information available. I completely understand how you can get distracted. Sometimes I find myself looking for one piece of information, but by the time I am finished I have a lot more than I started off looking for.M：I know. One thing I really don’t like about it, though, is it takes so much longer to find things, because many sites are useless.W: Yes, there’s that, and also, I often find the same site over and over again in a search. That definitely wastes lots of my time.M：And, of course, there are sites that offer little to no relevant information on the topic you are searching for. In my search today, I found quite a few sites that were nothing more than old local news archives and event calendars.W: Well, I’m sure they were useful to someone at some time, but they should be removed when they’re no longer of use to anyone.M：I agree. With all the time I spnd on it, I still find it to be the best source of information available.And speaking of information, I really should read through what I got on the Internet and start working on my project.W: Okay. Good luck. It’s funny we had this chat, as I was just on my way home to surf the Net myself.M：Well, it was nice talking to you, and maybe I’ll meet you in a chat room later tonight.1.Surfing the Internet for the last few hours.2.Some information on South America for a project he had.3.Because there is so much information available.4.It takes so much longer to find things because many sites are useless.5.She thinks they were useful to someone at some time, but they sgould be removed when they’reno longer of use to anyone.Task 3: Internet AddictionOver the years, studies have shown that it’s possible to become addicted to the Internet. Actually, college students are most likely to have the addiction because of many factors. Difficulty in adapting to life away from home, and certain psychological problems like depression or social anxiety are among the main reasons. College students have lots free time to spend and many of them are supplied with free Internet access and a computer in their doorms. It’s really easy to get addicted. Walking through the computer labs, you are most likely to find students chatting or surfing on the Internet. There are not just some, but many students not really doing anything related to schoolwork. They are spending far too much time online, which may do harm to their schoolwork and other activities. As a result, some have been academically dismissed, and others are even in the danger zone for developing an addiction needs to be addressed now as a serious problem on college campuses.likely adapting psychological access dorms chatting related dismissed gamblingTask 4: A Brief Introductionhonored as our guest computer hacking protect books and articles misuse New Threats to Security wake your interestIV.

I find the Internet very useful—I can find anything. Want me to search for the number of Net-addicts in America?Anne: John, you spend more time on the Net than with me. It’s kind of unhealthy!John: Unhealthy? Here, just feel my muscles. I like Atlas—I can lift the world with the Net. Anne: Stop joking, John.

They arebecoming unsociable…John: Anyway, look at the positive side: the amount of useful information available on the Web is amazing.Anne: I know that. As long as the Internet is only a virtual girlfriend, I won’t have to worry about it.John:2,4,6,8Anne:1,3,5,7For ReferenceaA, say hello to B and ask what he is doing online.Hi,Brian.

Downloaded an essay? Are you crazy? We’re supposed to write papers by ourselves.B, try to justify your act.Sounds easy! But I don’t have the time. Besides, I’m not into literature, you know.VI. Furthering Listening and SpeakingListeningTask 1: The Origin of the InternetThe story of the Internet begins in the late 1950s. The Soviet Union launched Sputnik in 1957. ThePentagon set up a research team in 1958 to create a computer network to operate during disasterslike a nuclear war. The resulting network linked U.S. scientific and academic researchers. It grewinto the World Wide Web or the Internet that became the network system of the Information Age. In1985, the National Science Foundation created a network which provided a free national service toany U.S. research and education institution. Later, large corporations began to build their ownnetworks. All those networks finally joined the Pentagon’s network to form the Internet. By the1990s, anyone with a computer, a modern, and Internet software could link up to the Internet. In thefuture, the Internet will probably grow more complex and become part of a larger network called the information highway. With that people could bank, shop, watch TV, and perform many otheractivities online.Task2: The Internet—A Small TownThe Internet is a global network, but in many wa ys it’s like a small town with similar services to offer. There are electronic post offices to send and receive e-mail, functioning somewhat more efficiently than the Post Office we know. There are libraries of information that stay open 24 hours a day with millions of books and documents to browse or search through on the World Wide Web or WWW. You can also enjoy real-time text-based communication, using written or printed material to communicate with others immediately and almost “face to face”. Local cof fee shops are seen in the guise of chat room, with people dropping by at all hours of the day and night to socialize. Online education and training is available just as it is in a “bricks and mortar” university or school. Online banking offers you all the services available at your local bank, without fearing to be mugged at an ATM. You can buy almost anything, listen to your local radio station or do your grocery shopping. Indeed, the Internet is your town in a box!Task3: If only life could be like a computer!To get your daily exercise, just click on “run”!If you need a break from life, click on “suspend”.Hit “any key” to continue life when ready.To “add/remove” someone in your life, click settings.To improve your appearance, just adjust the display settings.When you lose your car keys, click on “find”.You could click on “send” and the kids would go to bed immediately.To feel like a person, click on “refresh”.Click on “close” to shut up the noises.To undo a mistake, click on “back”.Is your furniture getting old? Click “update”.If you messed up your life, you could press “Alt, Ctrl, Delete” and start all over!Speaking1. F2. T3.T4.F5.T。

PreviewWhat an exciting time to be alive! A new century lies before us like an artist’s sketch book with hardly a mark in it. What will we do with these blank pages? What will our footprints show 100 years from now? How will we handle our unique opportunity to make our world a better place? Will we also fill the pages of this century with blood and tears and horrible wars, destroying our enemies or ourselves with guns and drugs or germs or worse? Or will we choose to unite in a common cause to save this earth home we share and rid it of all its ills? Will we choose to fill our days with acts which are beautiful, true, honest, just, pure, good and worthy of honour? For, how we image this new century is most certainly a choice. We will create our future based on what we do today. “Look well therefore to this day,” as the famous Sanskrit poem advises.1.Your FutureThe future does not determine itself. The actions of the present determine the future.EdwardCornish,editor of " The Futurist" magazine published by the World Future Society, says:"The responsibility we have for the future begins when we recognise that we ourselves create the future -- that the future is not something imposedupon us by fate or other forces beyond our control. Weourselves build the future both through what we do and what we do not do."2. Your BrainYour brainwaves may be checked to see whether you are busy, tired or doing your work properly.Psychologist Arthur F. Kramer tested volunteersworkingonarithmetic problems. He could predict their performance from the strength of the brain's electrical activity measured through the head.The future? Bosses could measure brain activity to learn worker quality. Frequent computer analyses could tell whether workers, like air traffic controllers, are seeing all activity clearly enough to monitor it properly.3. Your DoctorMoreandmore,doctors will use visual information about your condition from computers, instead of textbooks, for diagnosis and treatment.Home computers will enable you to answer interactive questions about your health and show the alternative results should you act in a certain way.4. Your CarCars will be almost entirely controlled by computers.To payfor costs, cars will be billedfor using high-speed toll roads. Computers will record the passage of the car and automatically take the money from the owner's computer bank account.Computers will show drivers maps of districts the car is crossing on a small screen in the car.Computers will diagnose any problems with the puter connections will list the nearest places of repair, tell the cost of new parts and the place where they can be bought.5. The Computer-HomeMore than half of the home computers sold in the United States in recent years will become essential to home life in the West. Future tasks computers already do at home include:Computers turn on the lights, heating and essential household services before people arrive home from work. Computers control cooking, hot water, security.Computers enable homework assignments to be done with worldwide resources, using sites like museums and science facilities around the world. Homework help can come equally from the local library, or libraries and databases in places as far apart as NewYorkand London, or from teachers and fellow students around the globe. Many shoppers order groceries at home through Internet suppliers and have purchases delivered.6. The WorkplaceThe changing face of work and the work-place is one of the most widespread influences in Western society.Women now form more than half the workers; the percentage is rising as they startup small businesses of their own, often working from home.People are changing careersonaverage every ten years now, instead of staying in a job for life.Increases in information and knowledge-based businesses are reducing levels of middle management.Top managers get all the information needed to work together with front-line staff. Specialists are becoming more important than general workers.7. The EnvironmentProtection of the environment used to be the concern of special groups. Now governments and businesses realise bad air and water pollution affect everyone, making it difficult for cities to survive and for businesses to make a profit.London, England's biggest city, often suffers from air pollution which causes more than 1,000 deaths a year. Especially the very young, the elderly and cigarette smokers are at high risk.Many European countries and the United States check vehicles for gas and smoke emissions to make sure the levels are below the permittedoutput.For example, Germany has 600 sites that monitor carbonmonoxide.8. Your HealthPhysical fitness and healthy lifestyles have changedfrom fashion and hobby for a few to official policy for many businesses and governments.Smoking cigarettes is undersiege as a habit. Smoking advertising is banned in many areas.Although pills for tension,heart conditions, weight and other life-threatening conditions are prescribed by Western doctors, most now require patients to develop healthy lifestyles by changing diets and exercising more to keep well.Words: 700(Trends for the 21st Century)What problems will our world encounter in the next 1000 years? Social scientists and economists, farming experts and environmentalists pose this question and examine data, information from surveys.In every field, experts examine changes to understand the state of the field. To understand a country's economy, economists check growth in an industry such as steel. To understand the state of business, they may look at the number of building permits for new houses. The information learned shows increases or decreases. Important trends emerge in each field.PopulationPopulation is important to every person on Earth. People tend to live longer in most places. In Central Europe, however, life span is dropping because health care is not what it was a few years ago. Factors affecting general health include excessive smoking and drinking of alcohol and polluted water supplies.The population explosion on our planet has been increasing atanalarmingrate but the percentage of increase is decreasing. One out of every five people on Earth is Chinese, yet China's growth rate has slowed. As the number of women going to school increases, the growth rate declines.Food Production；[The production of grain seems to be decreasing mainly because of climate changes. Natural disasters like storms and floods have washedaway many crops.With less land for cattle and sheep, less meat like beef and lamb is being produced. Production of chicken, turkey and fish has increased, however. The amount of ocean fish has not increased, but fish farm production has.Fish farming is very efficient:producing a kilogram of fish utilizes less than 2 kilograms of feed, but it takes 2.2 kilograms of feed to produce 1 kilogram of chicken. One kilogram of beef requires 7 kilograms of grain. People, therefore, may eat less red meat in the future and more fish. EnergyUsing fossil fuels for energy has not altered very much but wind energy use is increasing significantly. Denmark,Germany, the Netherlands,Britain, and America have large wind power projects. China, India,Mexico,New Zealand, and the Ukraine are also developing wind power.Energy from nuclear power plants is steadily increasing but the problem of dangerous waste limits growth in many regions.Because many electrical companies consider nuclear energy too expensive, the trend is toward less dangerous sources of energy.While natural gas use increases, use of coal as fuel is decreasing. Naturalgas, an outstanding energy fuel, can be used to heat homes, make electricity, and power cars.EconomicsAs countries around the world trade more with one another, more products are available. But the fast development of world economy will bring about many new problems. With fewer trees, the paper industry is producing more paper from recycled materials but, unfortunately, damages the planet. The paper-making process uses large amounts of water, burns fossil fuels and produces much chemical waste. Automobile production is down; bicycle production is up. Crowded highways, high gasoline costs, and ease of bicycling are three reasons for this change.HealthThree major health trends exist as we begin the new century. Health care is better than ever. Medical research breakthroughs include finding tumors early, and saving lives through CAT scans and surgery. Surviving cancer is a new trend. HIV/AIDS, however, is spreading quickly all over the world.The third major trend is toward an attitude of indifference. People seem to have forgotten ways to keep diseases under control. Although medical science had achieved control over several dangerous diseases, some are returning. For instance,tuberculosis, once a dangerous killer, was cured.Now the disease is appearing again.NaturePollution continues to affect our forests and water. The bird population is decreasing because of oil spills and spreading cities. Seas and oceans are changing. Trees are cut down, more soil washes away, and water quality is affected. Many of these trees are in our rain forests where thick areas of plants and trees, home for many birds and animals, are disappearing. ConclusionOur challenges for this new century are clear. The problems of numerousinhabitants on this small planet will continue to be important to each of us. These challenges show that all of us need to be involvedin solving the problems. May we find new ways to accomplish the task. Words: 696Americans in the future will probably not live as Americans do today. Fusion (核聚变) power will be capable of producing energy without limits while saving natural resources. People may live well past a hundred years, be equipped with plastic body parts, and eat man-made foods. Space travelers will walk on the planets. These factors of life were science fiction images a few decades ago. Today such events are already discussed as if real.How do people image life in the United States in the future? Below aresome predictions made by Richard N. Farmer, who gave his light-hearted opinion of the "World of 2084."Since no one wants to do the dirty, uninteresting factory-line work any more, we decide not to. So we take some chimpanzees (黑猩猩), or if we really want some strength, some great apes (猿), do a bit of scientific engineering here and there, and we create some animals, which are made for the factory line. They work their eight hours a day, and don't mind the repetition a bit. . . .Jack Baxter, a common American of 2084, glanced at his stop-watch. He was slowing down; he could only run the kilometer in four minutes flat now, and when he was 80, he could do it in three-fifty. But, being 140 years old made a difference, regardless of what his doctor said. Jack had received his first cancer shot in 1981; he had received his man-made heart in 2014, before they really got those human ones perfected, so he wasn't a very good example of a complete human. But he felt pretty good he had been one of the lucky ones, who had received his shots to make him young again before he turned 40, so he was still a young-looking fellow. Of course, he looked old in his world, since no one got much beyond 30-looking any more. And, of course, he would die right now, fellows pushing 200 were in poor shape and kicking off . ... Death used to be a pretty simple thing. Body processes stopped, and you left us. But nowadays even, it is not uncommon for a person to bebrought back with heart massage (按摩) perhaps a full hour or more after he's "dead." By 2084, if we can store a dead body in a cold refrigerator room soon enough, lots of people who now would die may not. Now we all die, sooner or later; maybe by 2084, we won't die until we are good and ready. And that would be a new freedom indeed. Johnny, who's almost 10, can't read, but no one is worried. Indeed, Johnny has been going to school since he was 3, but it hasn't been the kind of school that we are familiar with. The kids learn all sorts of things about living together and getting along with each other, but nothing about school subjects. You see, we have figured out that age ten is about the time that a child can really put reading and mathematical skills to use. So, on his tenth birthday, Johnny goes to the brain-control center. He sits for an hour or so under a machine that looks something like a hair-dryer, with him attached to it. When he finishes, the entire reading, writing, and math patterns he needs to know are impressed right on his brain. Why fool around for years drilling kids, when all education really is made up of is a set of very mixed brain patterns? Just add them straight onto the brain, and you save lots of time and money. And if you want to teach any other kind of skills, like electrical theory for electricity workers, well, there's a pattern for that too.Words: 611。
