Computers become very important because they can work 6 than men and make fewer mistakes.Computers can 7 people do a lot of work.Writers now use computers to write.Teachers use them to study and children use them to play games.Computers can also remember what you put 8 them.Computers are very 9 and helpful.They are our good friends and good helpers. Do you want to 10 a computer?But don’t spend too much time playing computer games.That is a waste of time and life. 1.A.many of B.all kinds of C.a lot of D.hard 2.A.scientistsB.teachersC.studentsD.computers 3.A.fewB.littleC.a fewD.a little 4.A.higher B.cheaperC.lower D.more expensive 5.A.ButB.AndC.SinceD.If 6.A.slowlyB.more slowlyC.fastD.faster 7.A.helpB.makeC.useD.stop 8.A.overB.intoC.upD.on 9.A.beautifulB.carefulC.usefulD.heavy 10.A.payB.sellC.lendD.have 答案:1.B 由句中的“People like scientist, teachers, writers and even students”等信息可以作出判断:各种职业的人们都使用计算机来做各种各样的工作。故答案应选用all kinds of表示“各种各样的”。 2.D 从后句“They were very big and expensive”可知,这里的代词they应该代替第2个空。科学家、老师或学生不可能又大又贵,只可能是电脑。此句话的意思是“当时的计算机性能不好”。 3.A few/a few用来修饰可数名词。little/a little用来修饰不可数名词。few/little都具有否定的含义。根据上文“They were very big and expensive”判断:由于计算机又大又昂贵,所以几乎没有人对它感兴趣和懂得如何去使用它。表示“几乎没有人(people)”应选用few。 4.B 从上文“They were very big and expensive”可以看出:过去的计算机又大又昂贵。与此相对,当今的计算机又小又便宜。故应选用cheaper。 5.C 这半句话与后面的many people like to use them存在一种逻辑上的因果关系。四个选项只有since可以表示“既然;由于”,表示因果关系。 6.D 从句中的信息词than可以看出:该句是一个比较级的句子。再根据事实:计算机变得非常重要是因为它们能比人脑工作更快、犯的错误更少。故答案应选faster。 7.A 由该句的语境可以判断:计算机是人类的得力助手。表示“帮助某人做某事”应选用help sb.(to)do sth.短语,故答案应选help。 8.B 计算机也能记住你输入的内容。表示“把……输入……”应选用put...into...。 9.C 此句是指计算机的用途很广泛,且并列连词and前后的形容词应该意思相近。故答案应选用useful才与语境相符合。 10.D 由上下文语境可知此句意为“你想拥有一台电脑吗”,表示“拥有”应选用动词have。 Ⅳ.阅读理解 A (2006浙江中考) Mr.Ma, a famous mental doctor from Beijing once said at an important meeting, “Now many young students can have problems with their minds.Some students become worried because they have to study very hard.Others have trouble getting on well with people around them like their parents and classmates.Parents and teachers should care more about this problem.” Then Mr.Ma gave some examples.One patient, a middle school student from Xi’an was doing badly in his lessons.He thought his teachers and friends often laughed at him, and he became so nervous and worried that one night he left his homes without telling parents.Another student, a 14-year-old schoolgirl from Shanghai, was very afraid of exams.While she was reading the exam paper, she couldn’t think of anything to write. A recent report from Jiefang Daily says about 18% of the young students in Shanghai have mental problems.They often fell worried and very unhappy.Unluckily many of them won’t go and ask for help.Some think they will look stupid if they go to see a doctor.Others won’t talk about their secrets. At the end of the meeting, Mr.Ma offered some good ideas to young people: ◆ Talk to your parents or teacher often. ◆ Take part in group activities. ◆ Try to get on well with the people around you. ◆ Go to see a doctor if you often feel unhappy. 1.The students who often become worried or have trouble getting on with others may have ________. A.no parents B.no secrets C.poor memories D.mental problems 答案:D 由文章第一段可以知道现在学生的学习压力,以及和周围的人的关系处理不好,会产生忧虑,从而导致精神问题。 2.The schoolgirl’s problem happened whenever she ________.

A.they don’t want to tell their secrets to others B.their parents are too busy to look after them C.doctors can’t help them with the problems D.they can do with the problems themselves 答案:A 从第三段的最后几句话“Unluckily many of them won’t go and ask for help.Some think they will look stupid if they go to see a doctor...”,他们之所以不求救,是因为他们不想让别人知道他们的秘密。 4.The underlined word “stupid” in this passage means________. A.pretty B.happyC.not clever D.not friendly 答案:C stupid意思是“愚蠢的”,原话的意思是“如果他们去看医生,他们就觉得别人会以为他们很傻”。 5.According to the last part, which of the followings is a good idea?

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(系统) 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 the 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 expensive and the Internet was difficult to use.By the start of the 1990s,computers become cheaper and easier to use.Scientists had also developed software(软件) that made “surfing(浏览)” the Internet more convenient(方便). Today it is easy to get on-line and it is said that millions of people use the Internet every day.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. 1.The Internet has a history of________years. A.about 40 B.less than 30 C.more than 45 D.nearly 35 答案:A 从原文第二段的第一句话“Many people are surprised when they find that the Internet was set up in the 1960s.”,可以知道答案是A。 2.Scientists set up a new network system to________. A.make the computer cheaper B.make the system work well C.make the computer go well D.develop new softwares 答案:B 从原文第二段的后面几句话“If one computer in the network broke down,then the whole network stopped.So a new network system(系统) had to be...”,可以知道科学家建立新的系统是为了系统工作的更好。 3.The Internet was widely used in the________. A.1960s B.1970s C.1980s D.1990s 答案:D 从原文三段的最后几句话“By the start of the 1990s,computers become cheaper and easier to use.Scientists had also developed...”可以知道是在1990网络开始普遍应用。 4.The underlined words “get on-line” in Chinese mean________. A.上机 B.上网C.接线 D.买电脑 答案:B get on-line意思是“上网”。 C Computers are very important to modern life.Many people think that in the future computers will be used in lots of everyday life.It is thought that we won’t have to go shopping because we will be able to get most things sold in shops on the Internet.There will be no more books because we will be able to get all texts(内容)from computers.The Internet will be used to play games,see films and buy food.Most telephone calls will be made by computers,too. Some people are glad about these new ways of shopping and communicating(交际).Others do not think that computers will replace(代替) our old ways. Let’s look at books,for example,some people think that one day we will not read books made of paper.Instead,we’ll buy and read books using computers.We’ll read texts on small pocket computers.The computers will keep many different books in them at the same time.We won’t need to turn lots of pages and paper will be saved.Computerized(计算机化) books will be used more and more. Is Internet shopping such a pleasure as going to the shop?Many people say it is not.It is a pleasure to go into shops and look at things you want to buy.It is also unlikely(不太可能) that many people will want to read large texts on our computers.Because paper books will perhaps be more friendly.Maybe computers won’t change these two habits(习惯). 1.In Paragraph 1 it is thought people will use computers for________. A.playing games,shopping and making telephone calls B.making telephone calls,having meals and seeing films C.seeing films,buying food,and going for holidays D.playing games,making telephone calls and seeing the doctor 答案:A 从第一段中可看出,B项中的having meals是不可能的;C项中的going for holidays和D 项中的seeing the doctor也是不对的,所以A是对的。 2.Which reason(原因) for using computerized books is NOT said in the passage? A.Computerized books won’t be very expensive. B.Computers can keep many different books in them. C.We won’t have lots of pages. D.We won’t need any paper. 答案:A 原文的第三段表明,计算机可以保存很多书,不会有很多页码,不需要很多纸,但没有提到A项。 3.Paragraph 4 tells________. A.about the old and new ways of shopping and communicating B.if the Internet will change our habits C.about computerized books D.about future uses of computers 答案:B 作者从大量阅读和购物两个方面说明有些习惯计算机是改变不了的。 4.The title for this passage is________. A.Computers Will Replace Shop and Books B.Computers and the Future C.Computers will Do Everything for Man D.How Computers Change Our Habits 答案:B 综观全文都在阐述计算机和将来的问题,所以B为正确答案。 Ⅴ.短文改错 Not too long ago, people can’t go scuba diving on 1. ________ Hainan Island, or anywhere else. This were because2. ________ there was no machine allowing a person to breathe3. ________ under water for long time.In 1943 Jacques Cousteau4. ________ and his friend made it possible by invent the scuba5. ________ machine.Cousteau was very interested on diving6. ________ deep into the sea, but wanted to be an explorer.He7. ________ bought a ship and used them to explore under the sea.8. ________ He also was liked to make videos.As he explored the9. ________ sea, he took pictures and videos of many thing that10. ________ people had never seen before. 答案:1.can’t→couldn’t Not too long ago限定了时态。应该是一般过去时。 2.were→was this 是单数概念。应与was 搭配。 3.√ 4.long time→a long time 5.invent→inventing by是介词,后面接动词要用动名词形式。 6.on→in be interested in “对……感兴趣”, 是固定搭配。 7.but→and 此句是递进关系,而不是转折关系。 8.them→it 此处代词指代的是ship,所以应用单数形式。 9.was liked→liked 本句是主动语态,“be +动词的过去分词形式”是被动语态的结构。 10.thing→things 前面有many 修饰, 应用复数形式。 Ⅵ.写作 在日常生活中,Internet 起着越来越重要的作用。请根据下表提示用英语写一篇题为 On the Internet的文章。 信息看国内外新闻,获取其他信息 通讯发e-mail,打电话 学习上网上学校,阅读各种书籍,自学外语 娱乐、生活欣赏音乐、观看体育比赛、下棋、打牌、游戏、购物 _________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 答案: On the Internet The Internet is playing more and more important part in our daily life.On the Internet, we can learn about news at home and abroad.And we can get all kinds of information.We can also send messages by e-mail, make phones, go to a net school, read different books and learn foreign languages by ourselves.Besides, we can enjoy music, watch sports matches and play chess or cards.On the Internet, we can even go shopping, have a chat with others and make friends.We are only limited by our imagination.The Internet is really a new, very useful thing.In a word, the Internet has made our lives more colorful.
