bernerslee. he is not nearly as rich or famous as mare andreessen, who is the founder of netscape, or bill gates, whose name has become a wellknown word.bernerslee, who works in a small office at the massachusetts institute of technology, is the creator of the world wide web. the creation of the web is so important that some people compare bernerslee to johann gutenberg, who invented printing by movable type (活字) in the fifteenth century.bernerslee was born in england in 1955. his parents, who helped design the worlds first commercially (商业地) available computer, gave him a great love of mathematics and learning.in 1980, bernerslee went to work at cern, a physics laboratory in geneva, switzerland, where he had a lot of material to learn quickly. he had a poor memory for facts and wanted to find a way to help him keep track of things he couldnt remember. he invented a software program that allowed him to create a document that had links to other documents. he continued to develop his idea through the 1980s. he wanted to find a way to connect the knowledge and creativity of people all over the world.in 1991, his project became known as the world wide web. the number of internet users started to grow quickly. however, bernerslee is not completely happy with the way the web has developed. he thinks it has become a passive tool for so many people, not the tool for creativity that he had imagined.in 1999, bernerslee published a book called weaving the web, in which he answers questions he is often asked, “what were you thinking when you invented the web？” “what do you think of it now？”“where is the web going to take us in the future？”这是一篇人物传记。绝大多数人没有听说过tim bernerslee，他是万维网的发明者。21from paragraph 1 we can see_.atim bernerslee has never heard of netscapebbernerslee is as famous as mare andreessencbernerslee is as wellknown as bill gatesdwe know little about tim bernerslee答案d细节理解题。根据第一段可知，绝大多数人从未听说过tim bernerslee。他不像mare andreessen和bill gates那样富有、出名。22who invented the world wide web?ajohann gutenberg. bbernerslee.cbill gates. dmare andreessen.答案b细节理解题。由第二段第一句可知，bernerslee是万维网的发明者。23which of the following is true?a. in 1955, bernerslees parents gave him a great love of music.bin 1980, bernerslee wanted to find a way to connect the knowledge and creativity.cin 1991, bernerslee finished the world wide web.din 1999, bernerslee made a play called weaving the web.答案c细节理解题。由倒数第二段第一句可知，1991年，bernerslee完成了万维网的制作。24what does the underlined word “published” mean?aprint and send out. bbuy and offer to others.cinvent and sell. dwrite and exchange.答案a词义猜测题。根据关键词“a book called weaving the web”和后面的问题可知，他在1999年出版了一本叫万维网的书。bthey like using the internet. they have lots of pocket money to spend. and they spend a higher proportion of it online than the rest of us. teenagers are just the sort of people an online seller is interested in, and the things they want to buygames, cds and clothingare easily sold on the web.but paying online is a tricky business for consumers who are too young to own credit cards. most have to use a parents card. they want a facility that allows them to spend money.that may come sooner than they think: new ways to take pocket money into cyber (网络的) space are coming out rapidly on both sides of the atlantic. if successful, these products can stimulate online sales.in general, teenagers spend huge amounts: $53bn (billion) is the us last year and 20bn annually in the uk. most teenagers have access to the internet at home or at school88 percent in the us, 69 percent in the uk. according to the jupiter research, one in eight of those with internet access has bought something onlinemainly cds and books.in most cases, parents pay for these purchases with credit cards, an arrangement that is often unsatisfactory for them and their children. pressing parents to spend online is less productive than pressing on the high street. they are more likely to ask “why？” if you ask to spend some money online.one way to help teenagers change notes and coins into cybercash is through prepaid cards such as internet cash in the us and smart cards in the uk. similar to those for payasyougo mobile telephones, they are sold in amounts such as 20 or $50 with a concealed 14digit number that can be used to load the cash into an online account.现在很多英美青少年用零花钱网购，买cd或衣服等，但如何来避免网络潜在的危险呢？25what does the word “they” in paragraph 1 refer to?asellers. bbuyers.cteenagers. dparents.答案c事实细节题。从文章第一段“they like using the internet.teenagers are

access.bteenagers pay for goods online with their own credit cards.cmost teenagers in the us and the uk have bought something online.dteenagers found it easier to persuade parents to buy online than in a shop.答案a正误判断题。从第四段中的“most teenagers have access to the internet.88 percent in the us, 69 percent in the uk”可知，在英国和美国超过了50%的青少年可以接触到网络，故答案选a项。27a new way to help teenagers shop online is to use _.aa new machinebspecial coins and notescprepaid cardsdpayasyougo mobile phones答案c事实细节题。从最后一段中的“one way to help.is through prepaid cards”可以知道，现在一个帮助青少年网络购物的方法是用预付卡，所以答案选c项。28what is the passage mainly

these centers. for example, a high school in the state of maryland began operating a cyber caf last march. all students at bethesdachevy chase high school in bethesda can use the cyber caf. but school officials say it especially helps students who have no computer or cannot use the internet at home.the officials say thirteen percent of the students at the school are from poor families. many students have arrived in the united states from other countries only recently. students in the schools program for learning english speak twentythree other languages.the idea for a cyber caf at bethesdachevy chase high school began three years ago. at that time, officials were planning to restore (整修) the school building. parents interested in technology were against a cyber caf.they wanted this center even though schools in the area had suffered budget (预算) cuts. the community wanted all students to have the best chances to learn.officials in the area supported the idea. so did an organization called the bethesdachevy chase high school educational foundation. the foundation includes parents, teachers, former students, business, community and other leaders.over two years, the foundation collected money for a cyber caf and other new computers. it received more than one hundred seventy thousand dollars. the caf now has sixteen computers, a printer and a scanner (扫描仪). school official ann hengerer says students use the internet to complete research. they also write homework and required papers on the computers. besides, they can send and receive emails. that is especially helpful for many students who have family members in other nations.本文是说明文。主要讲述高中网吧和各界人士对网吧的态度。29what is mainly discussed in the passage?acyber caf computer centers in many cities around the

spam!when i first got an email account ten years ago, i received communications only from family, friends, and colleagues. now it seems that every time i check my email, i have an endless series of advertisements and other correspondence that do not interest me at all. if we want email to continue to be useful, we need specific laws that make spamming (发送垃圾邮件) a crime.if lawmakers do not do something soon to prohibit spam, the problem will certainly get much worse. computer programs allow spammers to send hundreds of millions of emails almost instantly. as more and more advertisers turn to spam to sell their products, individual (个人的) email boxes are often flooded with spam emails. would people continue to use email if they had to deal with an annoying amount of spam each time?this problem is troubling for individuals and companies as well. many spam emails contain computer viruses that can shut down the entire network of a company. companies rely on email for their employees to communicate with each other. spam frequently causes failures in their local communication networks, and their employees are thus unable to communicate effectively. such a situation results in a loss of productivity and requires companies to repeatedly repair their networks. these computer problems raise production costs of companies, which are, in the end, passes on to the consumer.for these reasons, i believe that lawmakers need to legislate (立法) against spam. spammers should be fined, and perhaps sent to prison if they continue to disturb people. email is a tool which helps people all over the world to communicate conveniently, but spam is destroying this convenience.网络技术的发展给人们带来了许多便利，但垃圾邮件的泛滥也令人深恶痛绝，人们呼吁立法来阻止垃圾邮件泛滥。33what does the underlined word “corr
