Daniel stays home on workdays. He starts his personal computer in order to connect with the office which is about three hundred miles away in another city. After work, he puts on his headphones, watches a movie on his home video recorder, or plays baseball on the computer. On many days, Daniel doesn’t talk to any other human beings, and he doesn’t see any people except the ones on television. Daniel is imaginary, but his lifestyle is very possible. The inventions of modern technology seem to be cutting us off from contact with our fellow human beings.
The world of business is one area in which technology is separating us. Experts say, for example, that many people will soon be able to work at home. With access to a large central computer, employees such as office clerks, insurance agents, and accountants could do their jobs at display terminals (終端) in their own homes. They would never have to actually see the people they’re dealing with. In addition, the way employees are paid will change. Workers’ salaries will be automatically paid into their bank accounts, making paper checks unnecessary. No workers will stand in line to receive their pay or cash their checks. Personal banking will change, too. Customers will deal with machines to put in or take out money from their accounts. Many companies and consumers have already changed the way they sell or buy products. E-commerce, or business done on the Internet, is becoming more and more popular. This, therefore, makes it possible for people to do shopping without going out of their homes.
Another area that technology is changing is entertainment. Music, for example, was once a group experience. People listened to music at concert halls or in small social gatherings. For many people now, however, music is an individual experience. Walking along the street or sitting in their living-rooms, they wear headphones to build a wall of music around them. Movie entertainment is changing as well. Movies used to be social events. Now, fewer people are going out to see a movie. Many more are choosing to wait for a film to appear on television or are borrowing videotapes to watch at home. Instead of laughing with others, viewers watch movies in their own living-rooms.
【小題1】After work, Daniel likes to ______.

A．listen to music at the concert hallB．watch a movie in his living-room
C．chat with his friends on the net D．play baseball with his workmates
【小題2】The underlined sentence “Daniel is imaginary, but his lifestyle is very possible” means ______.
A．Daniel is a person full of imagination and he can make his life colorful.
B．Daniel is not a real person but the lifestyle of his kind does exist.
C．Daniel is only an ordinary person but he has his own way of living.
D．Daniel is a model who makes full use of modern technology in life.
【小題3】 What will the writer most probably discuss after the last paragraph?
A．Games and sportsB．Personal banking
C．Music and filmsD．International business
【小題4】What is the main idea of the passage?
A．We may no longer need to communicate with other human beings.
B．Modern technology seems to be separating human beings.
C．We may no longer need to work in the office.
D．Modern technology makes it possible for us to work and entertain ourselves at home.

I was very disappointed not to be able to go to the jazz concert last Friday. The announcement in the paper said that you could buy tickets at the theater box office in Richland Hills any day between 10:00 and 4:00. Since I work from 9 o’clock to 5:30, the only time I could go to the theater was during my 45-minute lunch break. Unfortunately, the theater is on the other side of the town, and the bus service between my office and Richland Hills is not very good. But if you are lucky, you can make the round trip in 45 minutes. Last Monday, I stood at the bus stop for fifteen minutes waiting for a bus. By the time I saw one come around the corner, there was not enough time left to make the trip—so I gave up and went back to the office. The same thing happened on Tuesday, and again on Wednesday. On Thursday, my luck changed, I got on a bus right away and arrived at the theatre in exactly twenty minutes. When I got there, however, I found a long line of people at the box office. I heard one man say he had been waiting in line for over an hour. Realizing I would not have enough time to wait in line, I caught the next bus and headed back across the town. By Friday I realized my only hope was to make the trip by taxi. It was expensive, but I felt it would be worth hearing the concert. The trip by taxi only took 10 minutes, but it felt like an hour to me. When I got to the theatre, I was relieved to see that nobody was waiting in line. The reason, I quickly discovered, was that they had already sold all the tickets.
【小題1】The writer is probably ______.

A．workerB．a(chǎn) college teacher
C．manager of a companyD．a(chǎn) clerk
【小題2】He learned ______ that there would be a concert last Friday.
A．from his friends
B．from one of his colleagues
C．over the radio
D．from the newspaper
【小題3】He could go and buy the ticket ______.
A．a(chǎn)ny day before work hours
B．both before and after work hours
C．only during lunch time
D．on Saturday and Sunday
【小題4】The word “relieved” in the last two sentences may best be replaced by “______”.
A．surprisedB．pleasedC．puzzledD．sorry
【小題5】The story is about ______.
A．a(chǎn) good concert
B．someone enjoying a good concert
C．someone trying to buy concert tickets for his friends
D．someone’s disappointment at not being able to go to the concert
