By the year of 1980, computers had become a fact of life. They were, the magazine DISCOVER noted that December, “in cars, offices, schools and homes, toys and watches. In some airplanes, pilots need not handle the controls; they areflight managers who watch the computer manage the flight and landing. On the way are voice-driven typewriters, robots that can see, and hand-held computers that can over the contents of the Library of Congress.”But at the same time, observed the writer John Leo, a large number of Americans were “computerphobes” (电脑恐惧者) and “techno-peasants”, who feared that computers were “designed to destroy privacy, eliminate jobs, carry the TV generation even further away from literacy, read few words on food boxes so that the grocer can cheat his customers more easily, and allow World War III to be launched entirely by technical error.”Some executives especially hated computers, Leo reported. They worried that they would lose status and their assistants if they were seen at keyboard. Publishers and journalists, he continued, were frightened that the printed word would be eliminated. “True, the newspaper travels wellyou can not put a computer under your arm while rushing for a train,” he wrote, “Not now, but a more advanced and complicated portable version, about the size of a hand-held electronic game, may not be far off.”Today those same executives and journalists who feared computers wouldnt be found without having their portable computers on their laps. The widespread fear of computers seems a thing of the pasta shift that Leo correctly predicted.”Every one will accept computers,” he wrote, “because there is no alternative.”2.1.1 5.0 The magazine listed the uses of computers in the following fields EXCEPT _. a education b transportation c publication d medicine2.1.2 5.0 Some executives did not like computers in that _. a they might lose their importance and respect b they had to learn how to use computers c they had to hire more assistants d they had to buy expensive portable computers2.1.3 5.0 Which of the following is NOT what the computerphobes are expecting? a More privacy. b More jobs. c More literacy. d More world wars.2.1.4 5.0 Today the same executives and journalists can be found to _. a dislike computers b fear using computers c use computers frequently d use computers rarely2.1.5 5.0 When the author says:“there is no alternative” in the last sentence of the passage, he means that _. a computers provide no choice b computers are to be accepted c computers offer no help to pilots d more complicated computers have to be made in factories2.2 25.0 阅读下面短文，请从短文后所给各题的4个选项(A、B、C、D)中选出1个最佳选项，并在答题卡相应位置上将该项涂黑。Today, many people are starving to death. There is a shortage of food and the available food is too expensive for hungry people to buy. Therefore, they go without food, or each day have only one or two small meals lacking the necessary vitamins to maintain good health.Recently, a man who wanted to understand the conditions of such people conducted an experiment. He only ate one meal a day for a month but continued to work as he normally did.During the first five days he was hungry at his regular meal times,but after he had drunk a glass of water his hunger went away. In the evening,when he ate his one meal,he ate quickly and consumed a large amount. During the next few days, although he was not hungry during the day, he quickly noticed every food stall, and the smell of food caught his attention. During the third and fourth weeks, he had hunger pains and lacked physical strength. He looked forward to his one meal and ate it very slowly, enjoying every bite. Without it, he knew he would have hardly enough energy to work.This experience changed his attitude about some things. Having a cup of tea was not just a pastime,it also gave him strength. He more frequently noticed overweight people and people who threw away leftover food. He realized the importance of food for the very hungry person. He could no longer easily pass by a hungry beggar on the street. But most importantly, he could now sympathize in a small way with the starving people of the world.2.2.1 5.0 According to the first paragraph, today the problem with many people is that_. a they dont eat b they are too poor to buy food c the food they d not enough food is provided to them2.2.2 5
