We are all busy talking about and using the Internet (互联网), but how many of us know the history of the Internet?
Many people are surprised when they find that the Internet was set up in the 1960s. At that time, computers were large and expensive. Computer networks (网络) didn't work well. If one computer in the network broke down, then the whole network stopped. So a new network system had to be set up. It should be good enough to be used by many different computers. If part of the network was not working, information could be sent through another part. In this way computer network system would keep on working all the time.
At first the Internet was only used by the government, but, in the early 1970s, universities, hospitals and banks were allowed to use it too. However, computers were still very expensive and the Internet was difficult to use. By the start of the 1990s, computers became cheaper and easier to use. Scientists had also developed software that made 'surfing' (浏览) the Internet more convenient.
Today it is easy to get on-line (上网) and it is said that millions of people use the Internet everyday. Sending e-mail is more and more popular among students.
The Internet has now become one of the most important parts of people's life.
判断下列句子是否符合短文内容，符合的用“T”表示，不符合的用“F”表示。
l. The Internet has a history of less than thirty years.
T F
2. In the 1960s computer networks went wrong easily.
T F
3. Computers become cheaper so that many hospitals and banks were allowed to use them.
T F
4. People didn't have enough software to get on-line conveniently until the early 1990s.
T F
参考答案：1．F2．T3．F4．T
讲解：

3．第三段中说明大学、医院等都被允许使用电脑，然而，计算机仍然很贵，并且网络很难使用。
4．由第三段最后几句介绍可知，到90年代，计算机便宜且好用。科学家也发展了软件使网上浏览更方便。

If you do not use your arms or your legs for some time, they become weak; when you start using them again, they slowly become strong again. Everybody knows that. Yet many people do not seem to know that memory works in the same way.
When someone says that he has a good memory, he really means that he keeps his memory in practice by using it.
When someone else says that his memory is poor, he really means that he does not give it enough chance to become strong.
If a friend says that his arms and legs are weak, we know that it is his own fault. But if he tells us that he has a poor memory, many of us think that his parents are to blame, and few of us know that it is just his own fault.
Have you ever found that some people can' t read or write but usually they have better memories? This is because they cannot read or write and they have to remember things; they cannot write them down in a little notebook. They have to remember days, names, songs and stories; so their memory is the whole time being exercised.
So if you want to have a good memory, learn from the people: practise remembering.
1. The main reason for one's poor memory is that his parents have poor memories.
T F
2. If you don't use your arms or legs for some time, they will become strong.
T F
3. A good memory comes from more practice.
T F
4. Some people can't read or write, but they have better memories, because they have saved trouble.
T F
5. The best title of this passage is “How to Have a Good Memory”.

One of the things I always believe is that no matter how bad something is, you can take something positive out of it. The one time I wasn?t sure of that was on September 11.
I usually wake up a 6:30 or 7:00 in the morning. That day, I happened to wake up earlier. I turned on the TV and I saw that a plane had crashed (撞击) into the North Tower of the World Trade Center. My first reaction (反应) was that it was a terrible accident. Then I saw another plane fly into the South Tower and I realized that I was witnessing (目击) an act of terrorism.
My wife and I spent the day watching the terrible pictures over again. When I watched family members looking for their loved ones, the pain in their eyes was something I would never forget. I couldn?t understand h ow something this terrible could have happened.
It wasn?t until a few weeks after September 11 that I began to see that perhaps some good did come from this tragedy (悲剧). People seem different now, more understanding, more tolerant(宽容的). Little things that seemed to be such a trouble before are no longer big things. Personally, I am more tolerant than I was. I realize life is too short, and too precious(珍贵的), to let myself get worried over small things. I?ve learned also that you can?t take things for gra nted. Things change in the blink of an eye. People go to work and don?t come back. One moment they?re living and the next minute they?re not. And, it doesn?t matter who you are, there is nothing you can do about it. We never know when our time here will be over, so we all need to make the most of every minute we have.
You try to learn from what happened. You can?t be used up by it. You can?t live by it. All you can do is just live.
1. The word “positive” in the passage probably means ______.
A. terrible
B. bad
C. good
D. real
2. What did the writer see after he turned on the TV that morning?
A. A fire starting
B. A plane flying
C. A terrible accident
D. An act of terrorism.
3. From September 11, the writer had realized that___________.
A. people should make the most of every minute they have
B. he has become less tolerant towards others
C. he should get worried about little things
D. life is too short to care about others. 4. What?s the best title of this passage?
A. A Report about September 11
B. The Tragedy of September 11
C. September 11 and My Family
D. September 11 and My Turn.
参考答案
讲解：
1. C 见第一行，不管（no matter）事情多糟，总能发现有益的东西。
2. D 见第六行。
3. A 见倒数第三行。So we all need to make the most of every minute we have.

A man went to a fast-food restaurant to buy his lunch. “Hi，”a worker said.
“May I help you?”
“I'd like a hamburger，large chips，and a Coke.” the man said.
“Anything else?” the worker asked.
“No.” the man answered. “That's it.”
“Is that for here or to go?” the worker asked.
“To go.” the man said.
The worker put the man's lunch in a bag. The man took out his money and paid for his lunch.
“Thank you.” the worker said，“Have a nice day.”
The man took the bag and walked to a park. He sat down and opened the bag. He was surprised. There was no hamburger in the bag. There were no chips. There was no Coke. There was only money in the bag--a lot of money! The man counted the money. Two thousand dollars! Why was the money in the bag? Where was the man's lunch?

Scientists are trying to make the deserts into good land again. They want to bring water to the deserts，so people can live and grow food. They are learning a lot about the deserts. But more and more of the earth is becoming desert all the time. Scientists may not be able to change the deserts. People are doing bad things to the earth.

A strange thing happens to nearly everybody at night. They turn off the lights，pull up the covers and close their eyes. Six or seven sleeping hours later，they wake up again. Strange，isn't it?
Sleep puzzles science. Scientists and doctors would rather talk about why one can't fall asleep. They are not sure what causes sleep. The best conditions for sleep are good health and meals neither too big nor too small. No worries and a comfortable place are important，too. They advise against two in bed.
Strange things happen during sleep. For example，they move often. You would feel tired if you didn't. You also dream. Part of your brain is still awake when you dream. Dreaming happens when the memory and imagination in parts of your brain are still awake. Experiments have shown most of us dream in color. Bad dreams may be caused by stomachache.
Don't worry if you dream. Some great stories and poems were begun while their writers slept.

In 26th January，the biggest earthquake(地震) in India took the lives of 25，000 people. In the morning，when everybody was enjoying holiday，ear thquake began. It was about 7.5 on the Ritcher scale. “There is nothing left between the sky and the earth any more. Everything has been pulled down，”said one of the villagers alive. “There is no water，no food and no one has come to help.”
Nobody died in Pakistan，a country next to India. The City of Lahore was lucky. In Lahore American School，where I was studying，all of the students were safe. They were on the field，so most children didn't feel anything. The earthquake was felt by the teachers that were on the second floor. However，though Mrs. Young was also on the second floor，she didn't feel anything. She didn't know what happened until a teacher told her about it. Those teachers who were on the other floors had different feelings. Mr. Emend，the maths teacher from Australia，said that when the earthquake started he thought there was something wrong with him，but then another teacher said that it was an earthquake. After those words Mr. Emend felt better. Mrs. Davis and Mr. Frost didn't feel anything either.
My mother didn't feel anything. She didn't even know that it was an earthquake till she saw a shaking (moving from side to side) light. My dad saw the computer shaking and then he looked out of the window and saw many people going out.
1. People use “Ritcher scale” to tell _________.

“I don't like my parents. They always tell me I should do this, and should not do that. It sometimes makes me angry，” said Zhang Hua，a middle school student in Guangzhou. Do you have the same problem? Perhaps your parents had the same problem when they were your age long ago. Why does it seem that some parents are not so friendly in their children's eyes?
One of the biggest things is when someone becomes a parent，he/she likes worrying things. They worry about everything about you，from the time you were born. They do a lot for you，though something would make you angry，because they care about you and worry about you. They worry about your choice of friends，the food you eat，your work at school，how much sleep you get，etc. All these things are part of your life. They want you to grow up healthily and happily.
So how can you make things easier on yourself? It's easier than you think. Just make sure your parents know what you're doing. Get them to know your friends. Phone if you stay somewhere else so that your parents don't call every hospital in the phone book looking for your body. Say sorry to them when you make mistakes. Take responsibility(责任) for what you have done. Talk about your ideas with them. They may talk about theirs with you.
Most of all，try to think about why your parents do this or do that. They are still practising being parents and need help you can give them. Someday，when you become a parent，they may be able to help you how to get on with your children.
1. The writer thinks we should _____ if we go back home later than usual.
A. tell our friends
B. tell the teacher
C. say sorry to our parents
D. make a telephone call to our parents
2. The writer thinks _____.
A. it's wrong of parents to worry about their children too much
B. some parents are unfriendly, which makes their children angry
C. children should do everything as their parents say
D. parents love their children very much and the children should understand them
3. Which is the best title for the passage?

有一种爱，很小 佚名 不管他们选择的目标是什么，迫击炮弹还是落到了一个越南小村庄的孤儿院里。几个教士和一两个孤儿被炸死，还有几个孤儿被炸伤，其中有个大约8岁的小女孩。 村里的人到邻近的一个和美军有无线电通讯联系的小镇上去求救。最后，美国海军的一名军医和一名护士带着急救箱，乘吉普车急匆匆地赶到村里。他们发现那小女孩伤得非常严重，如不抓紧手术，她就会因长时间休克和失血过多而死亡。要及时地给她输血，这就得要和她有同种血型的献血者。护士很快地给在场的人进行血型化验，结果，没有一个美国人和小女孩的血型相同，但有几个没受伤的越南孤儿却和她血型相同。 美军军医和护士一会儿用越南语，一台儿用法语，一会儿打手势，试图向这些吓坏了的孤儿们解释，如果不马上给这个小女孩献血，她就必死无疑，然后他们问孤儿们，有谁愿意给小女孩献血。 孤儿们听后，一个个瞪着大眼睛，一句话也不说。过了一会儿，一只小手颤巍巍地慢慢举了起来，很快又放了下来，接着又举了起来。 “啊，谢谢你。你叫什么名字?”护士用法语说道。“恒。”小男孩答道。 护士很快把恒安置在担架上，用酒精在他的胳膊上擦了擦，把针头插进他的血管里。恒一声不吭，僵直地躺着。 过了一会儿，他突然发出了一阵颤抖的抽泣。但很快就用另—只手将脸蒙住，“疼吗，恒?”军医问道。恒摇摇头，并又用手蒙住脸，试图不哭出声来。军医又一次问他是不是针头刺疼了他，他又摇—摇头。 正在这时，一个越南护士正好赶到。她看到这种情景后，直接用越南语问恒到底是怎么回事，她听了桓的回答后，温柔地对他说了些什么。 过了片刻，恒停止了哭泣，抬起眼睛询问似地看着越南护士，越南护士向他轻轻点了点头，恒脸上紧张的表情顿时释然。 越南护士看了看美军军医和护士，然后轻轻地说道：“他以为他快要死了。他以为你们要把他的血全部输给那个小女孩呢。” “但他为什么又愿意献血呢?”美军护士问道。； 越南护士用越南语把美军护士的话又给恒说了一遍。恒回答说：“因为她是我的好朋友。”18．“过了一会儿，一只小手颤巍巍地慢慢举了起来，很快又放了下来， 接着又举了起来。”反映了恒当时怎样的心理。（2分） 19．将前文中与“他以为他快要死了”相照应的句子找出并用横线画在 原文上。（2分） 20．“越南护士向他轻轻地点了点头”意思是 21．题目“有一种爱，很小”，你对此的理解是 高中语文在阅读中探讨贫乏与丰富在阅读中探讨贫...在阅读中探讨贫... 22．你能从艺术构思的角度，就小说的结尾作简要点评吗？ 18．内心犹豫，因误以为会丧命，但为了朋友最终决定输血。 19．“他突然发出了一阵颤抖
