no reasonbvoip stands for voice over internet protocol. it is also referred to as ip telephony. it is another way of making phone calls, though the phone part is not always present any more, as you can communicate without a telephone set. voip is especially popular with long distance calls. the main reason for which people are so massively turning to voip technology is the cost. voip is said to be cheap, but most people use it for free. yes, if you have a computer with a microphone and speakers, and a good internet connection, you can communicate using voip for free.there are basically three ways of using voip. one is to have a pc on both communicating sides; another is to have a phone on one side and a pc on the other and the third is to have two phones. voip is a relatively new technology and it has already achieved wide acceptance and use. there is still a lot to improve and it is expected to have major technological advances in voip in the future. it has so far proved to be a good candidate for replacing the pots (plain old telephone system). it, of course, has drawbacks along with the numerous advantages it brings; and its increasing use worldwide is creating new considerations surrounding its regulations and security. the growth of voip today can be compared to that of the internet in the early 90s. the public is getting more and more conscious of the advantages they can get from voip at home or in their businesses. advertising campaigns, which are present everywhere on the net, are contributing a lot towards the popularization of voip which not only gives facilities and allows people to save, but also generating huge income for those who dived early into the new phenomenon. 56.more and more people would like to use voip because of _.a. its speed b. its convenience c. its cost d. its advance57.the author writes the passage mainly to _.a. ask readers to buy the new type of production.b. tell us how fast the modern technology is developing.c. introduce a new type of ip technology-voip.d. teach the readers how to use voip.58.we can infer from the text that _.a. voip will soon be more popular b. the internet will be replaced soon by voipc. most users are not sure of the quality of the present voipd. voip is a new technology comparatively59. the underlined word “drawbacks” in the third paragraph most likely means_.a. disadvantages b. advantages c. side effects d. benefits60. we can feel that the writer was _because of the growth of technology while writing the passage.a. tense b. worried c. calm d. admiringcabout six years ago i was eating lunch in a restaurant in new york city when a woman and a young boy sat down at the next table, i couldnt help overhearing parts of their conversation. at one point the woman asked: so, how have you been? and the boywho could not have been more than seven or eight years old replied. frankly, ive been feeling a little depressed lately. this incident stuck in my mind because it confirmed my growing belief that children are changing. as far as i can remember, my friends and i didnt find out we were “depressed” until we were in high school. the evidence of a change in children has increased steadily in recent years. children dont seem childlike anymore. children speak more like adults, dress more like adults and behave more like adults than they used to. whether this is good or bad is difficult to say, but it certainly is different. childhood as it once was no longer exists, why? human development is based not only on innate (天生的) biological states, but also on patterns of access to social knowledge. movement from one social route to another usually involves learning the secrets of the new status. children have always been taught adult secrets, but slowly and in stages: traditionally, we tell the sixth graders things we keep hidden from the fifth graders. in the last 30 years. however, a secret-revelation (揭示) machine has been installed in 98 percent of american homes. it is called television, television passes information, and indiscriminately (不加区分地), to all viewers alike, who can be children or adults. unable to resist the temptation, many children turn their attention from printed texts to the less challenging, more vivid moving pictures. communication through print, as a matter of fact, allows for a great deal of control over the social information to which children have access. reading and writing involve a complex code of symbols that must be memorized and practised. children must read simple books before they can read complex materials. 61.according to the author, feeling depressed is _. a. a sure sign of a psychological problem in a child b. something hardly to be expected in a young child c. an inevitable period of childrens mental development d. a mental scale present in all humans, including children 62.traditionally, a child is supposed to learn about the adult world _. a. through contact with society c. naturally and by biological instinct b. gradually and under guidanced.through exposure to social information 63.the phenomenon that todays children seem adultlike is attributed by the author to _. a. the widespread influence of television b. the poor arrangement of teaching contents c. the fast pace of human intellectual development d. the constantly rising standard of living 64.why is the author in favor of communication through print for children? a. it enables children to gain more social information. b. it develops childrens interest in reading and writing. c. it helps children to memorize and practise more. d. it can control what children are to learn. 65.what does the author think of the change in todays children? a. he feels amused by chair premature behavior. b. he thinks it is a phenomenon worthy of note. c. he considers it a positive development. d. he seems to be upset about it. 第二节：（共5小题；每小题2分,满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中的两项为多余选项。what is your favourite colour? do
