seems that every time i check my e-mail ,i have an endless series of advertisement and other correspondence that do not interest me at all. if we want e-mail to continue to be useful, we need special laws that make spamming(发送垃圾邮件) a crime. 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 e-mail on e-mail for their comployees to communicate with each other. spam frequently causes failures in their local communications networks, and their employees are thus unable to communicate effectively. such a situation results in a loss of productivity and requires companies to repeatedly repay their networks. these computer problems raise production costs of companies ,which are, in the end, passed 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. e-mail is a tool which helps people all over the world to communicate conveniently, but spam is destroying this convenience.57.what does the underlined word “correspondence” in the paragraph 1 probably mean? a. messages b. ideas c. connections d.programs58.according to the text, what is the major cause of the flooding spam? a. companies rely on e-mail for communications.b. more people in the world communicate by e-mail.c. many computer viruses contain spam e-mail.d. more advertisers begin to promote sales through spam.59.according to paragraph 3,who is the final victim of spam? a. the business b. the advertiser c. the employee d. the consumer 60.what is the purpose of the text?a. to informb. to educatec. to persuaded. to instruct【文章导读】随着网络信息技术的发展，越来越多的人们实用网络邮箱来传递信息，但现在垃圾邮件的泛滥已经成为网络用户们深恶痛绝的事情，人们呼吁立法来阻止垃圾邮件的泛滥。57. a。词义猜测题。根据本文中的e-mail一词以及endless series of advertisements可以推断出correspondence在此处意思是：信件，垃圾邮件，由此可知本题选a。58. d。推理判断题。由第二自然段中的as more and more advertisers turn to spam to sell their products, individual e-mail boxes are often flooded with spam e-mails.一句可知本题选d。59. d。推理判断题。根据本段的最后一句可知本题选d。60. c。推理判断题。通读全文可知本文作者摆出了垃圾邮件的危害，其目的是说服立法人员尽快出台法律阻止垃圾邮件的蔓延，故本题选c。错题集57. 本题为词意猜测题目，出错率往往比较高，本题很多考生选择了d项，主要是因为他们看到了advertisements一词，认为既然是广告，就应该是栏目、节目等。实际他们没有意识到这里讲的主要是e-mail，而e-mail主要是信息，也就是message。58. 本题很多同学从我们的日常出发，选择了a项和b项，实际本题有比较准确的意群来解决这个问题，但是很多同学没有去找，只是根据自己的常识判断，因而选错。话题探究根据近几年的试题，我们发现这些话题的题目有一些特点：1. 人物传记类。以介绍主要人物生平或逸事为主，它主要向读者介绍文学家、艺术家和著名体育运动员等在各行各业所取得重大成就或有重要影响的杰出人物，并特别介绍这些杰出人物如何克服困难从而走向成功。体裁一般是记叙文，包含记叙文的时间、地点、人物、事件等要素。写作手法多采用时间、空间或逻辑线索贯穿文章始终。命题以细节为主，推理为辅。2. 介绍艺术的种类和起源，以及对人的积极影响。3. 体育的重要性，以及如何锻炼身体等话题。4.对于文学作品的描述，以故事性为主，结尾往往又有总结性文字给人以启迪。链接高考链接1 . （2012全国卷）you may think that sailing is a difficult sport, but it is really not hard to learn it. you do not need to be strong. but you
