B
From E-mail to online shopping, you may think you’ve heard everything there to know about the electronic frontier (新領域).But with hundreds of thousands of Web pages being added weekly, there are plenty of surprises out there.Here are some of the most intriguing (有迷惑力的).
……
Put your kid on a greeting card.Here is how: simply take some pictures with a regular camera, and then ask the photo service to develop them digitally (數字化).For a small fee, you’ll receive your photos on a desk.Put that into your computer and, with a few clicks of the mouse, you can view your photos on the screen.With a few more keystrokes, you can attach the photos to email and send them to friends and relatives worldwide.
Sign on to one or several greeting card’s Websites (http://www.cardcentral.net/ is an index of more than 1200 electronic card sites) and create an electronic birthday or holiday card.Using your digital photos, you can paste your grandchildren onto the cover.
If you don’t want to use your own photos, go to cards.amzon.com to browse (瀏覽) hundreds of images in over 30 categories…all of which you can attach to an electronic greeting card for free.For a nominal fee(很低的費用)you can choose from a library of 75,000 images at http://www.phontodisc.com/.
Call Australia for free.To have a telephone conversation over the Internet, the person you want to talk to no longer needs a computer.Now all you need to talk to someone in Sydney is one computer with speakers, a microphone, a sound card and some software (available at http://www.vocaltec.com/ or Mricrosoft.com).Typically, you’ll pay a monthly fee (usually under $20) to a service provider, but after that, the calls themselves are local.Sound quality is the same as that of a cell phone.
Even if you don’t have a computer, you can still use the Web to reduce your long distance phone costs.Some companies offer a service that lets you use an ordinary phone to call another ordinary phone, but charge only a few cents per minute for US calls, because they send them through the Internet.
Today 48 percent of American homes have computers…a figure that is expected to climb to 60 percent by 2003.And by the end of the next decade, Americans will likely be spending more time shopping, banking, investing and learning on the Internet than in the real world.If you can’t do or find something on the Net today, you probably can tomorrow.
60.Over the Internet, you ________.
A.can hear everything there
B.will meet with plenty of surprises which come out every week.
C.will hear the things about the electronic frontier
D.can find some things are very interesting
61.From the passage we can infer that _________.
A.fewer people will use the Internet in the following ten years
B.more people will study in the regular school by the end of the next decade
C.fewer people will go to the regular school in the following ten years
D.more money will be needed for a long-distance call by the end of the next decade
62.If you want to attach to photo to your e-mail, you have to ________ it.
A.digitalize B.take C.picture D.send
63.Which of the following is NOT true?
A.A telephone conversation over the Internet can be carried out without computers.
B.Over the Internet, the receiver of the phone conversation doesn’t need a computer.
C.The phone conversations over the Internet are much cheaper.
D.The long-distance calls are local themselves.

sale.Whenever I serve a new customer, I always take their picture.”Mr. Hopkins pointed to an ancient
camera standing next to one wall.“Now, how can I serve you?”he added.

sorts of things,but it was knocked down over 30 years ago.”

For some kids, old photos and baby pictures are embarrassing. For others, they are cherished keepsakes (紀念品). But for thousands of children living in orphanages (孤兒院) worldwide, these records of the past simply don't exist. Either the kids' parents weren't around to snap photos, or the pictures have been lost. Whatever the reason is, the Memory Project is giving orphans a lasting document of their youth.
Over the last two years, the Memory Project has provided hand-painted portraits to more than 4,000 children living in orphanages in poor countries. Ben Schumaker, 24, got the idea when he was visiting an orphanage in Guatemala in Central America. But he's not creating the portraits(肖像) alone. Students in hundreds of high school art classes across the U.S. paint them using photos sent from the orphanages.
Schumaker believes that the artists benefit from the project as much as the orphans do. “There are two purposes of the Memory Project,” he said. “One is to offer a special gift to the child abroad. The other is to help open the eyes of the student who is painting.” Staring into the eyes of another person, Schumaker believes, it creates a real connection. This connection raises awareness in U.S. schools about the needs of the world's poor children. “It's about planting a seed,” he said.
Schumaker is also working on Books of Hope, a project in which students of all ages put together homemade books for children in Uganda and India. He hopes that one day children in Uganda and India will send books to the U.S. “It's important to me to have it be a two-way exchange,” Schmnaker says.
【小題1】
Old photos and baby pictures are clearly unavailable to .
A.the kids in rich families | B.the kids in common families |
C.the kids in expanded families | D.the kids without parents |
A.By hand-painted portraits that Ben Schumaker painted. |

C.By the photos taken by the U.S. students in high schools. |
D.By the Memory Project started by Ben Schumaker. |
A.The special gifts that the world's poor children received. |
B.The benefits that the Memory Project brings. |
C.The need of the US schools. |

On the first day of school I brought my camera to school. I gave the students a piece of 8 ×11 cardboard(紙板), and asked them to write their names on both sides. As they finished, I asked them to get into groups of three to four students and took photographs of them holding their name cards.
After school, I developed the film and printed two sets of photos. That evening, I started to match the names with the faces. I kept one set of pictures at home for about a week so that I could review their names each night. On the second day of school, I put up the other set of photos as a bulletin board (公布欄), with a title such as "Presenting Room 108, ..."
The kids loved it! After I had learned all of their names I brought the second set back to school and stuck them onto an 8 ×11 sheet of paper. I placed it in the classroom for other teachers.
The cardboard name cards that were made on the first day were collected and put on a shelf. From time to time, they were given back to the students and placed on their desks so that guests or supply teachers (代課老師) could identify all of the students.
I’ve been doing this with my grade 7 students for the last nine years and they liked it. It’s fun to bring the photos out again at the end of the school year to see how much they have all changed in ten months.
【小題1】The cardboards were used to ______.
A.play some kind of game | B.decorate the classroom |
C.identify the students | D.print the photos on |
A.head teacher | B.monitor | C.photographer | D.supply teacher |
A.To memorize the students’ names at home. | B.To make cardboard name cards for supply teachers. |
C.To make a bulletin board in the classroom. | D.To match the students’ names with their faces |
A.The students didn’t have to use the cardboard name cards to identify each other. |
B.Other teachers couldn’t identify the students without the cardboard name cards. |
C.The writer kept the cardboard name cards as a souvenir for nine years. |
D.The guests will know the students’ names by reading the cardboard name cards. |
A.a method of identifying students | B.a method of decorating classrooms |
C.the development of photography | D.the importance of cardboard name cards |
