Question

    A scientist once said that the Internet was the  world’s largest library,but that all the books were on the floor!In other ,it’s full of information but it can  be difficult to find just what you’re looking for. The  Internet has another drawback,too. Anyone can create a website,which means you can find websites about every!subject imaginable. Unluckily,it also means that a lot of   what is written on them isn’t true!    

   The Internet provides more than just information. There are sites where you can download (下載）music I and films either for free or for a small charge (收費(fèi)）.Other sites allow you to get in touch with people from all!over the world and there are some great online shops. On  Bay (易趣網(wǎng)),for example,people sell used clothes,    CDs and even cars very cheaply.  The Internet has changed the way we work and communicate,but we shouldn’t depend on it too much. Because of its size,it’s very difficult to control and a lot of the information isn’t worth reading. Some people also fear that surfing the net (上網(wǎng)）has taken the place of other healthier activities,especially for young people. Whether you like it or hate it,you’d better get used to it because it’s here to stay!

  Here’s a survey (調(diào)查）about how people of my age use the Internet. 80% of them said they used it to help them with their homework. 70% said they used it to keep in touch with their friends. 40% said that they downloaded music from the Internet. And 30% said they bought something online. Only 10% said they couldn’t use the Internet very often because they didn’t have a computer at home.

3. A 根據(jù)第二段第二句 There are sites where you can download (下載）music and films either for free or for a small cliarge(收費(fèi)）.可知，在網(wǎng)上下載歌曲并不總是免費(fèi)的。故選A.

4.D根據(jù)第一段第二句可知，網(wǎng)絡(luò)的一個弊端是，想找到自己想要的信息很困難。由第一段最后一 句 Unluckily,it also means that a lot of what is written on them isn’t true!可知，這里談到的是互聯(lián)網(wǎng)的另一個弊端，因此 drawback 與 disadvantage 同義。故選 D.
