Today almost everyone knows computers and the Internet. The first computer was made in 1946. It was very big but it worked slowly. Today computers are getting smaller and smaller. But they work faster and faster. What can computers do? A writer has said, “People can’t live without computers today.”
The Internet came a little later than computers. It is about twenty-five years later than computers. But now it can be found almost everywhere. We can use it to read books, write letters, do shopping, play games or make friends.
Many students like the Internet very much. They often go into the Internet as soon as they are free. They make friends on the Internet and maybe they have never seen these friends. They don’t know their real names and ages. They are so interested in making the “unreal friends” that they can’t put their heart into study. Many of them can’t catch up with others on many subjects because of that.
We can use computers and the Internet to learn more about the world. But at the same time, we should remember that computers and the Internet could not do all the things.

English is a very interesting language. It has borrowed words from many other languages. Immigrants(移民) coming into the United States have contributed many words to the language, which have kept their original pronunciation. “Coolie” and “kowtow” were taken from the Chinese language, “kamikaze from the Japanese, “shampoo” from India, “blitz” from German, “amigo” and “Los Angeles” from Spanish and so on.
Many students have studied English for years, some as many as eight. However, some students still have difficulty in speaking fluent English. Some know many words but are unable to discern them when native speakers use them. In our Oral English classes we will focus on speaking and listening to native English speakers. For this reason, because we are trying to train your ears to hear English and your mouths to speak intelligible (易理解的) English, we will have a rule that ONLY ENGLISH will be spoken in our English classes. Anyone speaking Chinese in class will be required to pay a fine in order to encourage the speaking and understanding of English. If teachers enter a classroom and discover that anyone is speaking Chinese, they will require everyone in the room to pay the fine. It is everyone’s job to enforce the English-Only rule. It is for your benefit. It is because we want to accustom (使习惯于) your ears to hearing English.
Other subjects may be learned solely from books but the only way to learn a foreign language is to SPEAK IT! Students are often nervous about speaking in class at first but we hope to make the classes fun, so you will forget your nervousness and learn to speak out. Enjoy your classes.
12. The first paragraph is mainly about________.
A. the difficulty of learning English.
B. how interesting and various English is
C. different words in different languages
D. the i mmigrants’ contributions to America
13. The underlined word “discern” in Para 2 can be replaced by___________.
A. understand
B. notice
C. hear
D. speak
14. In the author’s opinion, the only way to learn a language well is to__________.
A. listen to it on the radio
B. learn it from books
C. play games with it
D. speak it often
15. The article is probably aimed at________.
A. Japanese students
B. German students
C. Chinese students
D. Indian students

五、书面表达(满分30分)
Different people may have different ideas about good eating habits.
In my opinion, we first should have a balanced diet. Three regular meals are very important, especially breakfast. They can give u s enough energy to carry out our daily activities. What’s more, we should eat enough fruit and vegetables because they are rich in vitamins, which are good for our health. We shouldn’t eat junk food. Finally, we had better drink enough water and milk. They are so necessary for us to build up our bodies.
If we can follow these, we will become much better and healthier.。
