【解析】

文章主要介紹了六種適合不同人群的提供不同信息的網(wǎng)站。

【1】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文中“If you love social studies and are looking for a detailed site about geography, look here. You can click on a place and it gives you cities in that location. It also has state maps, geography games and other geography information.”如果你喜歡社會(huì)研究，正在尋找一個(gè)詳細(xì)的地理位置，看看這里。你可以點(diǎn)擊一個(gè)地方，它會(huì)給你這個(gè)地方的城市。它也有國家地圖，地理游戲和其他地理信息�？芍绻矚g旅游，可以訪問Fact Monster網(wǎng)站，故選C。

【2】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文中“Go to this site if you want to understand what’s happening in the news and read articles about kids. There are also articles written by kid reporters about different topics, games. Recommended by Martin Jacobs. ”如果你想了解新聞中發(fā)生的事情，并閱讀有關(guān)兒童的文章，請?jiān)L問此網(wǎng)站。也有兒童記者寫的關(guān)于不同話題、游戲的文章。馬丁·雅各布斯推薦�？芍憧梢栽L問Martin Jacobs推薦的，故選D。

【題目】 It’s March, 2050. Frank and Mary Smith wake up in their comfortable house in the morning and switch on the bedroom computer to get the latest news. They used to read the Times, but changed to electronic newspapers many years ago.

There is the usual news about space: another space flight has returned from Mars and scientists have discovered a new planet. Then they turn to business news: the US dollar has risen greatly in Shanghai, one of the world’s leading business centers. Mary tells the computer to buy 5,000 dollars, and there is a quick response that it has been done.

As they watch the screen, Mary orders one of the household robots to make coffee for them. Frank disappears into the study to join a video conference with his partners around the world. He is a computer engineer, working for several companies. This is his third job: he used to be in marketing and then television.

Mary has a quick look at the shopping channels—the usual selection of electric cars, household robots and cheap travel offers—before picking up the video phone to talk to her assistant. She also has a job and she is doing medical research. Both she and Frank used to have an office desk in London, but in 2014 they decided to move to the seaside and work from home.

Frank and Mary have one daughter, Louise, who also has her own workstation at home. She goes to school only one day a week, mainly to play with other students. Classrooms disappeared in 2030 because there was no longer any need for them: communications systems have made it much easier to learn at home.

Louise, now thirteen, is studying Chinese at present, which has become a world language as important as English. Louise has many Chinese friends. They communicate by computer.

According to the family doctor, Louise will live to at least 130. Her wish is to work for a few decades (十年) and then spend her time on music and painting.

【1】Why do Frank and Mary switch on the bedroom computer in the morning?

【2】Who makes coffee for Mary and Frank?

【3】How does Frank work with others from home?

【4】What are the two world languages in 2050?

【5】What do you think of Louise’s life in 2050?

【題目】 While he was playing with his toy car, Tom found his mother crying. He ran to her and wiped the tears on her face with his little dirty hands, saying, “I won’t play with the toy any more and I’ll be a good boy.”

After a while, he asked his mom, “Why are you crying?” “Because I am a mother, boy,” she told him.

“I don’t understand,” he said. His mom took him in her arms and said, “You will never.”

Later, the little boy asked his father about it. “All mothers cry for no reason,” answered his father.

The little boy grew up and became a man, still wondering why mothers cry. One day while he was reading a story, he happened to find the answer. In the story, a lovely girl asked a granny, “Granny, why do mothers cry so easily?”

Granny said, “You see, girl, mothers are born to be special. Mothers’ shoulders are strong enough to carry the weight of the world, yet soft enough to give comfort. Their hearts are kind enough to stand the misunderstanding which comes from their children. Mothers take care of their families without saying anything. They love their children, even when their children hurt them badly. This kind of great love makes a child who made mistakes feel better, and it helps mothers share a teenager’s worries and fears. Mothers have the ability to know others’ feelings. Only mothers can use tears whenever it is needed.”
