The ongoing technology development has made these things come to our daily life.It is said that China has had the right to use the third generation telecommunication technology (3G) since 2009. The u-called 3G technology allows mobile phone users enjoy high-speed Internet-based services. It helps increase mobility in many areas of our lives.Nowadays, many mobile phones allow you to send e-mails or read the latest stories on the Internet, but the speed is not pleasing, which is only 10 kilobytes (KB) per second. But 3G goes on the Interact with a speed of up to 2 megabytes (MB) per second. If recent mobile technology is like riding bikes on a country mad, then 3G will make you fly on the information highway. For example, a mobile phone with 3G technology can help download a three-minute MP3 song within two minutes while it will take you up to an hour to do this with your common mobile phone.In the UK and many other European countries where 3G services have around since 2003, 3G has already become a part of modem business life. Nowadays, office workers are able to spend some of their working hours at home. The new technology allows the first aid services to provide a video link with a hospital or doctor for patients who need special care.59.

In the future, you can enjoy high-quality music using your phone.D. 3G movies on mobile phones are coming to us in the nearby future.DCan you imagine the very first modem Olympics in 1896 with no landing mats (海绵垫), no stopwatches and no photo finishes? In fact, cameras and stopwatches were not used until the 1932 Olympic Games in Los Angeles, USA. Thanks for technology, Olympics have been developing at an unbelievable speed.Today-technology has completely changed sports. Take sports equipment for example. Electronic eyes hanging at the starting lines, together with digital cameras, could catch correct race time and also help to catch runners who “jump the gun”. As runners cross the finishing fine, special digital cameras can also easily decide the winner. The days of “dead heats” we gone.Technological developments are also good for athletes. New sports suits, which get less wind effects, can help cut up to one-tenth of a second from runners race time. Top athletes, like Liu Xiang, are even provided with hand-made sports shoes. These shoes are made to fit the athlete exactly-and there are some more changes in the shoes that meet each runners personal needs.Technology has also changed the way of many sports. Take one example-the pole vault. The landing mat makes a big difference to the vaulting style as athletes no longer need to worry about hurting themselves as they fan. Without these worries, athletes could jump higher. New swimming pools have been scientists have worked out a new swimming style to improve the speed.The increasing technological developments have led many sportsmen to suggest that the “Olympic spirit” is being lost in a rash to break records and win medals. Many developing countries say that technology has become too important in sport and that athletes from developing countries are disadvantaged. There are no easy answers but one thing is sure-we cannot turn hack times. Technology cannot go backwards.62.

He wanted to relax himself and he went downtown. He walked on and on along the streets. He was pleased to see that people were very happy. When he was enjoying himself, he was stopped by a foreigner.“(65) ?”“Yes, but I ” Li Lei was very nervous, and his face turned red.

For example, when writing book reports and stories, I use Microsoft Word instead of a pen and paper. That way, after my teacher cheeks my work, I can go back and make revisions without having to rewrite the whole thing. And Microsoft Word has a spell check! I use it all the time.For English class, we are reading The Outsiders by S.E. Hinton. As pre-reading homework, my teacher asked us to research teenage groups on the Internet. I tried Google, Encarta, and Yahoo first, and finally found an article on www. time. com.For geography homework on the United States, I used Encarta to learn about the Mississippi River. I needed to find out how deep and wide the river is, what states it runs through, and what kinds of fish live in it. I used the information to show how the geography of a country influences its economy (经济). For example, the rivers trade paths, the number of fish caught in it and the tourist development.I never go to the library to do research. It takes too much time. Since I live in New York City and both my parents work, getting to the library isnt always easy. For a big task or research, I used to stay at the library to read, or sign out whatever books or magazines I needed. Now being able to find the information in my own living room makes everything a lot simpler. Online dictionaries and encyclopedias (百科全书) also save time.Sometimes, I think the computer spoils (娇惯) my generation because it is so easy-at least physically. But computers are not like television, which does the thinking for you. You still have to use your mind. I prefer using a computer, easy, fun and fast.69. Did his dad and morn write on the computer?70. What software does the writer use when he writes?71. Where can the writer find a lot of useful information for his research work quickly?72. Why does the writer prefer using the computer a lot?73. What does the writer think of computer?书面表达七、完成句子（每小题2分，共10分）根据中文意思完成句子。74. 对不起，我迟到了。Im sorry I class.75. 噢，你不喜欢这个颜色。那件蓝色的怎么样？Oh, you dont like this color. that blue one?76. 他不仅擅长体育，唱歌也不错。He is doing well in sports good at si
