第二部分 阅读理解(共20小题。第一节每小题2分，第二节每小题1分;满分45分)

第一节 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中，

选出最佳选项。

A

Teens don’t understand the big fuss. As the first generation to grow up in a wired world, they hardly know a time when computers weren’t around, and they eagerly catch the chance to spend hours online, chatting with friends. So what?

But researchers nationwide are increasingly worried that teens are becoming isolated, less skillful at person-to-person relationships, and perhaps numb to the cheatings that are so much a part of the e-mail world. “and a teen’s sense of self and values may be changed in a world where personal connections can be limitless,” said Sherry Turkle.

Another researcher, Robert Kraut, said he’s worried about the “opportunity costs” of so much online time for youths. He found that teens who used computers, even just a few hours a week, showed increased signs of loneliness and social isolation. “Chatting on line may be better than watching television, but it’s worse than hanging out with real friends,” he said.

Today’s teens, however, don’t see anything strange in the fact that the computer takes up a central place in their social lives, “School is busy and full of pressure. There’s almost no time to just hang out.” said Parker Rice, 17. “Talking online is just catch up time.”

Teens say they feel good about what they say online or taking the time to think about a reply. Some teens admit that asking someone for a date, or breaking up, can be easier in message form, though they don’t want to do so. But they insist there’s no harm.

41.The researchers argue that___.

A.teens may develop a different sense of values

B.nothing is wrong with teens' chatting online

C.teens can manage their social connections

D.spending hours online does much good to teens

42.Teens think that talking online can help them ____.

A.use computers properly B.improve their school work

C.develop an interest in social skills D.reduce their mental pressures

43.The text mainly deals with __ _.

A.teens' pleasant online experience

B.teens' computer skills and school work

C.the effects of the computer world on teens

D.different opinions on teens' chatting online

44.The purpose of the text is to ____.

A.describe computer research results

B.draw attention to teens' computer habits

C.suggest ways to deal with problem teens

D.discuss problems teens have

B

Silence is unnatural to man.He begins life with a cry and ends it in stillness.In between he does all he can to make a noise in the world, and he fears silence more than anything else.Even his conversation is an attempt to prevent a fearful silence.If he is introduced to another person, and a number of pauses occur in the conversation, he regards himself as a failure, a worthless person, and is full of envy of the emptiest headed chatterbox (喋喋不休的人).He knows that ninety-nine percent of human conversation means no more than the buzzing of a fly, but he is anxious to join in the buzz and to prove that he is a man and not a waxwork figure (蜡塑人像).

The aim of conversation is not, for the most part, to communicate ideas; it is to keep up the buzzing sound.There are, it must be admitted, different qualities of buzz; there is even a buzz that is as annoying as the continuous noise made by a mosquito (蚊子).But at a dinner party one would rather be a mosquito than a quiet person.Most buzzing, fortunately, is pleasant to the ear, and some of it is pleasant even to the mind.He would be a foolish man if he waited until he had a wise thought to take part in the buzzing -with his neighbors.

Those who hate to pick up the weather as a conversational opening seem to me not to know the reason why human beings wish 1:0 talk.Very few human beings join in a conversation in the hope of learning anything new.Some of them are content .if they are merely allowed to go on making a noise into other people's ears, though they have nothing to tell them except that they have seen two or three new, plays or that they had food in a Swiss hotel.At the end of an evening during which they have said nothing meaningful for a long time, they just prove themselves to be successful conservationists.

45.According to the author, people make conversation to .

A.exchange ideas B.prove their value

C.achieve success m life D.overcome their fear of silence

46.By "the buzzing of a fly" (Para.1), the author means"_____".

A.the noise of an insect B.a low whispering sound

C.meaningless talks D.the voice of a chatterbox

47.According to the passage, people usually talk to their neighbors___ .

A.about whatever they have prepared

B.about whatever they want to

C.in the hope of learning something new

D.in the hope of getting on well

48.What is the author's purpose in writing the passage?

A.To discuss why people like talking about weather.

B.To encourage people to join in conversations.

C.To persuade people to stop making noises.

D.To explain why people keep talking.

C
