In recent years, a new kind of English has grown on the Internet. Theres no real word for it yet, so well call it e-talk. People dont like typing too much. To save time, they turn phrases（短语） into a few letters (called acronyms). Acronyms are often used in chat rooms. Some of them are: BTW ( by the way) BRB ( be right back) LOL ( laughing out loud) IMO ( in my opinion) People also use many abbreviations（缩略）. They are shortened forms of words. Some common abbreviations are: info (information) puter (computer) pic (picture) sec (second) We usually dont see people when we communicate on the Net, so people havenew ways to show feelings. Most people use their keyboards to draw feelings, such as: :-) (happy) ;-) (joking) :-( (sad) :-O (surprised)These days, many forums (论坛) have picture feelings. For example: (h (happy) (s (sad ) (angry) (cool) There are even whole new words, like newbies(someone who is new on a chat board or forum). When you write something bad about someone else, its called flaming the person. It takes time for people to get used to e-talk. Also, different groups on the Net have their own special ways of communicating. Newbies sometimes have to ask other people what they mean. As the Internet grows, e-talk will continue to grow and change.61. Why do people type acronyms? A. To show their feelings. B. To make jokes. C. Because people can type them quickly. D. In this way newbies wont understand them.62. What does, BTW, my puter is not working well. :-( mean? A. The person is happy about getting a new computer. B. The person has to go away from their computer. C. The person is angry at somebody. D. The person is sad that his computer is having problems.63. If someone is angry, what may he type? A. B. C. LOL D. BRB. 64. E-talk will probably_. A. keep changing B. stay the sameC. be used by people on the telephone D. be easy for newbies to understand65. The best title for this passage is_. A. E-talk B. Picture Feelings C. How to Use Abbreviations D. The Changing InternetEIn the United States, it is not usual to telephone someone very early in the morning. If you telephone him early in the morning, while he is shaving or having breakfast, the time of the call shows that the matter is very important and needs immediate attention. The same meaning is attached to telephone calls made after 11:00 p.m. If someone receives a call during sleeping hours, he thinks its a matter of life and death. The time chosen for the call passes on importance.In social life, time plays a very important part. In the USA guests will feel they are not highly regarded（重视） if the invitation to dinner party is given only three or four days before the party date. But it is not true in all countries. In the other areas of the world, it may be considered foolish to make an appointment (约会) too early because plans which are made for a date more than a week away are easily forgotten. The meaning of time differs in different parts of the world. Thus, misunderstandings（误解） are caused. Promptness (即时) is of high value in American life. A person who is five minutes late is expected to apologize. If he is less than five minutes late, he will say a few words of explanation, though perhaps he will not complete his sentence.66. Supposing one wants to make a telephone call late in the evening, this would mean _.A. the matter is important B. the matter is rather importantC. the matter needs immediate attention D. it is a matter of life and death67. According to the passage, the writer may agree to which of the following? A. It is proper (合适的) to send your invitation cards to your guests three or four days before a dinner party date in the USA. B. It may be proper to send your invitation cards to your guests three or four days before a dinner party date in some countries. C. It is best for one to make telephone calls at night because it costs much less. D. If one is less than 5 minutes late, he has to make a short apology.68. According to the passage, time plays an important part in _. A. everyday life B. school life C. communications D. night life69. According to the passage, Americans _. A. never call someone after 11:00 p.m. B. do not call someone while he is shaving or having breakfast C. do not usually call someone early in the morning or late at night D. can only make calls to tell someones death early in the morning or late at night70. The best title for this passage is _. A. The Voice of Time B. The Importance of Time C. The Importance of an Invitation D.
