in beijing, students start using a computer as early as primary school. and computer dependence is more widespread among university students. almost all their assignments and essays are typed on a computer. all the students interviewed say they usually use a computer. its faster and easier to correct if using a computer. and thats why computers are being applied more and more often to modern education. but when people are taking stock in computers increasingly, problems appear. “when im writing with a pen, i find i often cant remember how to write a character, though i feel im familiar with it.” “im not in the mood to write when faced with a pen and paper.” many students dont feel this is something to worry about. now that its more convenient and efficient to write on a computer, why bother to handwrite? many educators think differently. shi liwei, the headmaster of a famous primary school in the capital said, “chinese characters enjoy both practical and aesthetic (审美的) value. but those characters typed with computer keyboards only maintain their practical value. all the artistic beauty of the characters is lost. and handwriting contains the writers emotion. through ones handwriting, people can get to know ones thinking and personality. beautiful writing will give people a better first impression of them.” to encourage students to handwrite more, many primary schools in beijing have made writing classes compulsory(必修的) and in universities, some professors are asking students to turn in their homework and essays written by hand. 50. which of the following can best serve as the title of the passage?a. the importance of handwriting and typing.b. to type or to handwrite.c. writing by computer will replace writing by hand.d. practical and aesthetic value of chinese characters.51. the students interviewed prefer to write using a computer because _.a. they are usually asked to e-mail their homework and essays.b. they can correct the mistakes they make quickly and conveniently.c. they found it not easy to remember how to write a character.d. computers have become a trend and fashion in china.52. which of the following statements in not the advantage of handwriting?a. handwriting contains the writers emotion.b. the writers thinking and personality are shown in his or her handwriting.c. handwriting can impress people well and build ones self-confidence.d. chinese characters enjoy both practical and aesthetic value.53. we can draw the conclusion from the passage that _.a. more and more students will give up writing on a computer.b. writing by hand will give way to typing by computer one day.c. more and more students will pay attention to handwriting.d. the typing article better expresses ones emotion and quality.54. what is the authors attitude toward typing on a computer?a. supportive b. proud c. objective d. disapproval d driving to a friends house on a recent evening, i was attracted by the sight of the full moon rising just above my friends rooftop. i stopped to watch it for a few moments, thinking about what a pity it is that most city people - myself included - usually miss sights like this because we spend most of our lives indoors. my friend had also seen it. he grew up living in a forest in europe, and the moon meant a lot to him then. it had touched much of his life. i know the feeling. last december i took my seven-year-old daughter to the mountainous jungle of northern india with some friends. we stayed in a forest rest house with no electricity or running hot water. our group had campfires outside every night, and indoors when it was too cold outside. the moon grew to its fullest during our trip. between me and the high mountains lay three or four valleys. not a light shone in them and not a sound could be heard. it was one of the quietest places i have ever known, a bottomless well of silence. and above me was the full moon, which struck me deeply. today our lives are filled with glass, metal, plastic and fiber-glass. we have television,cell phones, pagers, electricity, heaters and ovens and air-conditioners, cars, computers. struggling through traffic that evening at the end of a tiring day, most of it spent indoors, i thought, “before long, i would like to live in a small cottage. there i will grow vegetables and read books and walk in the mountains. and perhaps write, but not in anger. i may become an old man there, and wear the bottoms of my trousers rolled and measure out my life in coffee spoons. but i will be able to walk outside on a cold silent night and touched the moon.”55. the best title for the passage would be _.a. touched by the moonb. the pleasures of modern lifec. a bottomless well of silenced. break away from modern life56. the writer felt sorry for himself because _.a. there was too much pollution.b. he failed to see the fullest moon.c. he didnt adapt to modern inventionsd. there were too many accidents on the road.57. what impressed the writer most in the mountainous jungle of northern india?a. no modern equipment.b. complete silence.c. the nice moon.d. the high mountain.58. modern things are mentioned mainly to _.a. show that the writer likes city life very much.b. tell us that people greatly benefit from modern life.c. explain that people have less chances to enjoy nature.d. show that we can also enjoy nature at home through them.59. the author wrote the passage to _.a. express the feeling of returning to nature.b. show the love for the moonlight.c. advise modern people to learn to live.d. want to communicate longing for modern life.efor eighty four days old santiago had not caught a single fish. at first a young boy, manolin, had shared his bad fortune, but after the fortieth luckless day the boys father told his son to go in another boat. from that t
