Electronic books have changed the way many people read for pleasure.Now online textbooks are changing the way some students learn and some teachers teach.More than one hundred seventy­five thousand students attend the public schools in Fairfax County, Virginia, outside st year, the school system used digital books in fifteen schools.This school year, middle schools and high schools changed from printed to electronic textbooks in their social studies classes.
Luke Rosa is a history teacher at Falls Church High School.His students work on laptop computers at school.He explains the idea to them this way，“I mean, it's just like a regular textbook, except it's got it all, online.”
Peter Noonan, an assistant superintendent (助理监督) of schools, said，“The world's changing.And the online textbooks can change right along with the events that are happening.” Digital books also cost less than printed textbooks, he said.
A student named Melanie Reuter said, “I don't have to carry a textbook around, so that's nice.”
But another student said，“I don't like it because the Internet sometimes doesn't work.”
Students also need access to the Internet when they are not at
school.About ten percent of students in Fairfax County do not have a computer or online access at home.Public libraries in the county have free Internet.There are also after­school computer labs as well as computer clubhouses supported by the county.Middle school student Slieman Hakim is happy about that.He said, “My family only has one computer；my sister and I both do our homework on it.So I come here to do my homework.It's good.”
Other school systems in the area are also considering online textbooks.
【语篇解读】随着因特网的普及，电子教材正在改变着学生学习和老师授课的传统模式。

1．One of the disadvantages of digital textbooks is that ________．A．they're more expensive
B．they can't be used if the computer is offline
C．they're soon out of date
D．reading online does harm to students' eyes
B[推理判断题。

根据倒数第三段“I don't like it because the Internet sometimes doesn't work.”可推断出，这个学生认为电子教材的一个不利之处就是：当连接不上因特网的时候，电子教材就没法使用。

故B项正确。

2．Why does Slieman Hakim feel happy?
A．He is offered a free computer to do his homework.
B．He doesn't have to do his homework at home.
C．He has access to the Internet to study at any place.
D．He needn't share a computer with his sister to do homework.

根据倒数第二段的“My family only has one ...It's good.”可知， Hakim家只有一台电脑，之前他和妹妹都需要上网做作业，必然会出现电脑之争。

现在做作业不用和妹妹共用一台电脑了，他当然感到高兴。

] 3．What can we learn from the passage?
A．All students like digital textbooks because they are new.
B．Digital textbooks are more beautiful than paper textbooks.
C．Students can do their homework in the computer clubhouses.
D．The lessons online are completely different from those in paper textbooks.

其他选项文中没有提到。

4．The passage aims to ________．

所以答案为A项。

Terrafugia Inc.said Monday that its new flying car has completed its first flight，bringing the company closer to its goal of selling the flying car within the next year.The vehicle—named the Transition—has two seats，four wheels and wings that fold up so it can be driven like a car.The Transition，which flew at 1，400 feet for eight minutes last month，can reach around 70 miles per hour on the road and 115 in the air.It flies using a 23­gallon tank of gas and burns 5 gallons per hour in the air.On the ground，it gets 35 miles per gallon.
Around 100 people have already put down a$10，000 deposit to get a Transition when they go on sale，and those numbers will likely rise after Terrafugia introduces the Transition to the public later this week at the New York Auto Show.But don't expect it to show up in too many driveways.It's expected to cost $279，000.And it won't help if you're stuck in traffic.The car needs a runway.
Inventors have been trying to make flying cars since the 1930s，according to Robert Mann，an airline industry expert.But Mann thinks Terrafugia has come closer than anyone to making the flying car a reality.The government has already permitted the company to use special materials to make it easier for the vehicle to fly.The Transition is now going through crash tests to make sure it meets federal safety standards.
Mann said Terrafugia was helped by the Federal Aviation Administration's decision five years ago to create a separate set of standards for light sport aircraft，which are lower than those for pilots of larger planes.Terrafugia says an owner would need to pass a test and complete 20 hours of flying time to be able to fly the Transition，a requirement pilots would find relatively easy to meet.
