19．Sometime in the next century，the familiar early morning newspaper on the front porch will disappear．And instead of reading your newspaper，it will read to you．You'll get up and turn on the computer newspaper just like switching on the TV．An electronic voice will read stories about the latest events，guided by a program that selects the type of news you want．You'll even get to choose the kind of voice you want to hear．Want more information on the brief story？A simple touch makes the entire text appear．Save it in your own personal computer file if you like．These are among the predictions from communications experts working on the newspaper of the future．Pictured as part of broader homebased media and entertainment systems，computer newspapers would unite print and broadcast reporting，offering news and analysis （分析） with video of news events．
    Most of the technology is available now，but convincing more people that they don't need paper to read a newspaper is the next step．Resistance （阻力） to computer newspapers may be stronger from within journalism．Since it is such a cultural change，it may be that the present generation of journalists and publishers will have to die off before the next generation realizes that the newspaper industry is no longer a newspaper industry．Technology is making the end of traditional newspapers unavoidable．
    Despite technological advances，it could take decades to replace newsprint with computer screens．It might take 30 to 40 years to complete the changeover because people need to buy computers and because newspapers have established financial interests in the paper industry．

42．The best title of this passage isB．
   A．Computer Newspapers Are Well Liked
   B．Newspapers of the Future Will Likely Be on Computer
   C．Newspapers Are out of Fashion
   D．New Communications Technology
43．It might take 30 to 40 years for computer newspapers  to  replace  traditional  newspapers，becauseC．
   A．it is technologically impossible now
   B．computer newspapers are too expensive
   C．there is strong resistance from the general population and professional journalists
   D．traditional newspapers are easier to read
44．Which of the following is NOT an advantage of computer newspapers？A
    A．They are cheaper than traditional newspapers．
    B．They are very convenient to use．
    C．You can get more information from them quickly．
    D．You can easily save information for future use．
45．We can infer from the passage thatC．
    A．a(chǎn)ll technological changes are good
    B．a(chǎn)ll technologies will eventually replace old ones
    C．new technologies will eventually replace old ones
    D．traditional newspapers are here to stay for another century．

解答 42．B．主旨大意題．本文主要敘述的是下個(gè)世紀(jì)的報(bào)紙的變化，由現(xiàn)在的紙質(zhì)變成了未來(lái)的電腦屏幕．以及人們對(duì)于這一技術(shù)的態(tài)度．故選B．
43．C．推理判斷題．根據(jù)最后一段it could take decades to replace newsprint with computer screens．It might take 30 to 40 years to complete the changeover because people need to buy computers and because newspapers have established financial interests in the paper industry可知電腦報(bào)紙可能需要30到40年才能取代傳統(tǒng)報(bào)紙，因?yàn)閺钠胀ㄈ俗兂蓪I(yè)人是一大阻力；故選C．
44．A．細(xì)節(jié)理解題．根據(jù)文章第二句And instead of reading your newspaper，it will read to you．可知未來(lái)的電腦報(bào)紙很方便．所以B正確．根據(jù)第4行You'll even  get to choose the kind of voice you want to hear．可知C正確；根據(jù)5，6行Save it in your own personal computer if you like．可知D項(xiàng)正確．只有A項(xiàng)在文章里沒(méi)有提及；故選A．
45．C．推理判斷題．根據(jù)文章第二段最后一句Technology is making the end of'traditional newspapers unavoidable可知技術(shù)的革命是無(wú)法避免的．也就是說(shuō)新技術(shù)最終將取代就技術(shù)．故選C．

點(diǎn)評(píng) 考察學(xué)生的細(xì)節(jié)理解和推理判斷能力，做細(xì)節(jié)理解題時(shí)一定要找到文章中的原句，和題干進(jìn)行比較，再做出正確的選擇．在做推理判斷題不要以個(gè)人的主觀想象代替文章的事實(shí)，要根據(jù)文章事實(shí)進(jìn)行合乎邏輯的推理判斷．

10．A camera，a glove，a hand tool，even a toothbrush…they are all up there，above the clouds，going around and around the Earth．There are also thousands of pieces of metal and plastic．Some of them are only about the size of a fingernail．Many are much larger．Scientists consider all these objects to be space junk，and they are a problem．
Since people first launched rockets into space in the 1950s，we have been leaving behind all sorts of things．Much of the space junk is made up of little pieces of things that were once bigger objects，until they struck each other and broke apart．Sometimes larger pieces survive the extreme heat through the atmosphere and hit the ground or the ocean at great speeds．
But space junk falling on housetops is not the biggest worry．Scientists are concerned about the Kessler syndrome （綜合征）．It is named after the American scientist who first thought of the idea in 1978．Imagine what happens when an empty rocket strikes another while orbiting （環(huán)繞軌道運(yùn)行） the Earth．Two big things become many smaller things．They then hit other things．The pieces get smaller and smaller until they form a cloud of junk that blocks the path of future space vehicles．
Marco Castronuovo，an Italian Space Agency researcher，suggested launching a satellite into space that would get very close to some of the larger pieces of space junk．The satellite would connect a small rocket to the useless object．When the rocket explodes，it pushes the junk into a lower and slower orbit，nearer the Earth．After a time，the junk burns up in the atmosphere．
Scientists have been concerned about space junk for many years．Right now，the costs of the clean-up have been too great．Mr．Castronuovo says his system could be put in place for a much more reasonable amount of money．

27．What does the underlined part"space junk"in Paragraph 1refer to？D
A．It refers to small pieces of things that were once bigger objects．
B．It refers to objects that survived the extreme heat through the atmosphere．
C．It refers to clouds that are made up of small objects in space．
D．It refers to all kinds of objects that have been left behind in space．
28．Which of the following statements is TRUE？C
A．Scientists consider all the objects in space as space junk．
B．Space junk will never fall on our housetops．
C．Kessler was the first scientist who came up with the idea of space junk syndrome．
D．The cost of the clean-up with Marco Castronuovo's method has been too great．
29．What is mainly talked about in the passage？C
A．Smaller objects come together to form clouds of space junk．
B．Human beings are responsible for space junk．
C．Space junk is a big problem human beings have to find ways to solve．
D．An Italian researcher has found a good way to remove space junk．
30．What is the author's attitude towards Mr．Castronuovo's method of cleaning up space junk？B
A．Doubtful．B．Objective．（客觀的）       C．Supportive       D．Disagreeing．
