14/27但最终他又说：“我以为读传统教材会了解得更加好.”为何呢？对于大学生来说，疲惫时候看电脑屏幕是困难，而且，看脸谱网(Facebook)、视频网(YouTube)和电子邮件只是弹指一键事，所以也极难专注。15/27尽管很多问题正在或已经处理，一些学生还没完全准备好将这些设备用于学习。有些教育教授认为这种新技术带来选择可能会使学习变得更难而非更易。16/27原因可能就是人们对这技术不熟悉，还未普及。电子阅读器在休闲阅读市场已经流行起来，而出版商进入教育市场脚步却还很慢。原因各种各样，但出版商面临一个挑战就是，学习型阅读比娱乐型阅读要难。17/27“通常，读小说能够一口气从头读到尾。看教材则要不停地翻前翻后，而且要翻很屡次。”22岁马特•利雷特说道.他是位于伊利诺斯州乔利埃特初级学院一名计算机科学专业生。18/27即便如此，人们对于电子阅览技术应用于大学期望依然很高。有些大学打算给大一新生发放iPad。加州大学欧文分校医学院新生在近期开学仪式上，不但领了传统白色衣袍，还领了iPad，里面已预先载入了第一年课程学习所需资料。19/27包含里德学院和北卡罗来纳州大学在内其它几十所大学也计划让学生体验一下iPad。依据信息化校园计划，三分之二大学里技术主管去年秋季预言说，电子读物在5年之内会成为“一个主要教学资源平台”。20/27出版商们对于学生学习也动了大念头呢。“那个发展前景很好。”教育资料出版社——皮尔森学习方案集团董事长唐•桥本说。21/27可能不可防止地会出现更多缺点，不过技术发展“提供了一次真正改进教育机会”，卡普兰•奥尔森说，“未来几年，电子教科书可能会变得活灵活现，且具备互动性，非常值得关注。”22/27PartA ExercisesTask4CompletethefollowingsentenceswiththewordsfromTask3.Changethewordformsifnecessary.1.Itseemstobethebest_________tothisproblem.2.Itisdifficultto________whatlifewillbelikeinthefuture.3.The__________ofhisvoicesentmetosleep.4.Thiscontestoffers__________aforthestudentstopracticetheirspeaking.5.Theengineerwhomwemetyesterdayhadworkedoutanewautomatic________.solutionpredictmonotonyplatformdevice23/27Task6Rewritethefollowingsentencesafterthemodels.1.Becausethegirlwasfrightenedbythenoise,shedidn’tdaretosleepinherroom.2.Whenthebabywaslefttoitselfintheroom,hebegantocry.3.Iftheseseedsaregrowninrichsoil,theycangrowfast.Frightenedbythenoise,thegirldidn’tdaretosleepinherroom.Lefttoitselfintheroom,thebabybegantocry.Growninrichsoil,theseseedscangrowfast.24/27Task6Rewritethefollowingsentencesafterthemodels.1.
