Teachers 43 themselves caught in the middle of the problem -- between parent pressure and 44 educational decisions.
Educators do not even agree 45 how computers should be used. A lot of money is going for computerized educational materials 46 research has shown can be taught 47 with pencil and paper. Even those who believe that all children should 48 to computers, warn of hidden 49 to the very young.
The temptation remains strong largely because young children 50 so well to computers.
First graders have been 51 willing to work for two hours on maths skills. Some have an attention span of 20 minutes. 52 school can afford to go into computing, and that creates 53 another problem: a division between the haves and have-nots. Very few parents are arguing publicly 54 computer instruction in poor school districts, 55 there may be barely enough to pay the teachers.

阅读下面短文，从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中，选出最佳选项。

A
Beijing: Chinese basketball has never been so close to the NBA before, but questions remain about how they will get used to life in the NBA if they go. Wang Zhizhi, the 2.16 meter center for the Bayi Rockets who was chosen by the Dallas Mavericks two years ago, has finally received permission from authorities to travel to Dallas to play for the rest of the NBA season after he finishes playing in the Chinese Basketball Asian player, Wang was chosen by the Mavericks in the second round of the 1999 draft but the Rockets, an army-run club, refused to let him go. After negotiations (to get agreement) between the Rockets and NBA representatives, the decision was made to allow Wang the chance to try his hand at American basketball, but only for a period of short time. He has to be back to play in the Ninth National Games in November in Guangzhou.
Another center who has drawn attention from the NBA is Yao Ming, the 2.25 meter star who has led the Shanghai Sharks into the finals fight with the Rockets this Year. The 20-year-old man's NBA dreams might be harder to realize. Yao is the center of the Sharks and the club' s manager Bei Genyuan has said that he would allow Yao to go only at a proper time, for a proper team and under proper conditions.
Yao hasn't been chosen yet and it is unlikely that he will be any time soon. People ill the Shark's front office earlier told members of the press (news) that "it is not proper for Yao to attend that draft (select) this year" because he has to represent Shanghai in the Ninth National
Games.
Even if Wang and Yao make it to the promised land of basketball at last, analysts( one that analyzes) on both sides of the Pacific have said the NBA road will be a long one for both of them. Besides needing to work on their upper body strength, Wang and Yao will 'also have to adapt (fit) to the speed, techniques and above all, culture of the NBA.
56. Which is right?
A. Chinese basketball has been in the NBA before.

People are always talking about "the problem of youth". If there is one -- which I take leave to doubt -- then it is older people who create it, not the young themselves. Let us get down to fundamentals (基本原则) and agree that the young are after all human beings -- people just like their elders, There is only one difference between an old man and a young one: the young man has beautiful future before him and the old one has a splendid future behind him and maybe that is where the rub is.
When I was a teenager, I felt that I was just young and unknown -- that I was a new boy in a huge school, and I would have been very pleased to be regarded as something so interesting as a problem. For one thing, being a problem gives you a certain identify(身份), and that is one of the
things the young are busily engaged in seeking.
I find young people exciting. They have an air of freedom, and they have not a dull promise to mean ambitions (卑鄙的野心) or love of comfort. They are not anxious social climbers, and they have no devotion to important things. All this seems to me to link them with life, and the origins of things. It's as if they were in some sense cosmic beings (外空间的人类) in violent and lovely contrast with us suburban creatures(乡下人). All that is in my mind when 1 meet a young person. He may be conceited(极其自负的) ,ill-mannered, serf-confident or fatuous(愚昧而自满的), but I do not turn for protection to boring cliches (陈腔滥调) about respect for elders as if the age were a reason for respect. I accept that we are equals, and I will argue with him, as an equal, if I think he is wrong.
64. By "the problem of youth", people mean __________.
A. the problem caused by young people
B. the problem needed to be solved by young people
C. the problem young people often meet
D. the problem created by the old for young people
65. Look at line 1. The writer means the talk about "the problem of youth" _______ .
A. is being carried out now
B. is carded out very much frequently at present
C. has already been carried out
D. probably will be carried out again
66. One of the things the young are engaged in seeking is ___________.
A. they want people to know them
B. they want to make troubles
C. they want to make some interesting events
D. they want to excite people
67. What's the writer's attitude to young people?
A. Positive.
B. Negative.
C. Neutral.
D. Doubtful.
D
All that we really need to mark out the future of universe are a few good measurements. This does not mean that we can sit down today and outline the future course of the universe with anything like certainty. There are still too many things we do not know about the way the universe is put together. But we do know exactly what information we need to fill in our know]edge, and we have a pretty good idea of how to do about getting it.
Perhaps the best way to think of our present situation is to imagine a train coming into a switchyard (编组站). All of the switches are set before the train arrives, so that its path is completely determined. Some switches we can see, others we cannot. There is no ambiguity(模糊) if we can see the setting of a switch: we can say with confidence that some possible futures will not become real and others will. At the unseen switches, however, there is no such certainty. We know the trains will take one of the tracks leading out, but we have no idea which one. The unseen switches are the true decision points in the future, and what happens when we arrive at them determines the entire subsequent (随后的) course of events.
When we think about the future of the universe, we can see our "track" many billions of years into the future, but after that there are decision points to be dealt with and possible fates to
consider. The goal of science is to reduce the ambiguity at tile decision points and find the tree mad that will be followed.
68. According to the passage, it is difficult to be certain about: the distant future of the universe because we _______.
A. have too many conflicting (不一致) theories
B. do not have enough supply of money to continue our research
C. are not sure how the universe is put together
D. have fixed our eyes on the moon and planets
69. What does the author consider as the function of the univ erse’s unseen “switches” ?
A. They tell us which one of the tracks the universe will use.
B. They enable us to change the course of the universe.
C. They give us information about the lunar surface.
D. They determine which course the universe will take in the future.
70. For whom is the author probably writing this passage?
A. Trained engineers.
B. General audiences.
C. Professors of switches.
D. Young children.
71. Which of the following statements best describes the organization of the passage?
A. A statement explained by related examples.
B. A theory supported by facts.
C. A comparison of two different theories.
D. An analysis of a common theory.
E
These radio signals were heard first in 1967. They were coming from a point in the sky where there was no known star. They were coming very regularly too; once in just about a second. It was as if they were controlled by a clock.
The scientists who heard the signals did not tell anybody else. They were rather afraid to tell in case they frightened people. The signals were coming from a very small body -- no bigger, perhaps, than the earth. Was that why no light could be seen from it? Or were the signals coming from a planet that belonged to some other star?
There was no end to the questions, but the scientists kept the discussion secret. "Perhaps there are intelligent beings (有智力的人) out there," they thought "-- little green men who are trying to send messages to other planets. Or to us!" So the news was not given to the newspapers. Instead, the scientists studied the signals and searched for others like them"'
Well, all that happened in 1967 and 1968. Since then scientists have learnt more 'about those strange, regular, radio signals. And they have told tile story, of course. The signals do not come from a planet; they come, from a new kind of star called a "pulsar". About a hundred other pulsars have now been found, and most of them are very like the first one.
Pulsars are strong radio stars. They are the smallest but the heaviest stars we know at present. A handful(少数) of pulsar would weigh a few thousand tons. Their light -- if they give much light -- is too small for us to see. But we can be sure of this: no little green men are living on them.
72. How was the first pulsar discovered?
A. Scientists searched the sky and saw it.
B. Scientists heard a new kind of radio signal.
C. Scientists heard radio signals coming from an unknown star.
D. Scientists heard regular radio signals sent by little green men from a small planet.
73. Why did the scientists think that the signals might be a sign of intelligent life?
A. Because they were coming from a very small body, possibly a planet.
B. Because it seemed that they were controlled by a clock.
C. Because they couldn't see the body.
D. Because they understood the messages sent by the intelligent beings.
74. Why didn't they report the news?
A. Because the signals were messages.
B. Because the signals were heard only once.
C. Because they were rather afraid of frightening people.
D. Because scientists like to keep their discoveries secret.
75. When did they think it safe to report the news?
A. When they were tired of studying the signals.
B. When the signals stopped.
C. When other pulsars were discovered.
D. When everyone had forgotten signals.

Some clinics and hospitals in England use computers now. The computers there are often called robot doctors, they are good assistants to human doctors. The hospital computers work in this way. They show each question on TV. Then the patient pushes one of the three buttons: Yes, No, or I don't understand. Dr Robot can ask his patient many questions. The information helps the human doctor a lot when he meets the patient. Most patients like the metal "doctor". Some
patients even prefer it. They can answer very personal problems more comfortably.

Art is sometimes divided into two kinds, high art and popular art. Popular art has got more lovers than high art. People who enjoy high art go to the opera and concerts; they keep up with the art exhibitions at museums and galleries. Popular art is the main way for people to enjoy themselves. Some TV programs are meant to be watched today and forgotten tomorrow. Many popular rungs are loved for a short time and then disappear. Other songs remain popular for such a long time and they become classics. The line between high and popular art is not always clear, however. For example, many people believe that rock music is a real 'art form while others don't. Text 9
