Question

I stood up and walked between the tables. When I came to the biggest computer, I saw a thin, small man   40  in front of it. “ I’m Steve, ” he finally answered after I asked him a couple of times what his name was. “ I can’t talk with you. I’m  41 ,” he said. He was chatting online and,  42  , he was playing a computer game –a war game. I was  43  .

Why didn’t Steve want to talk with me? I tried  44 to speak to that computer geek（怪人）,  45   not a word came out of his mouth. I touched his shoulder, but no reaction（反應(yīng)）. I was   46  . I put my hand in front of the monitor, and he started to shout “ 47 ! ”

I took a few steps back, wondering if all those people in the cafe were looking at me. I   48  , and saw nobody showed any interest.

49  , I realized that the people there were having a nice conversation with their machines, not with people. They were more   50  having a relationship with the   51  , particularly Steve.

【解析】從“我”遇見的一件事情說明現(xiàn)實社會中很多年輕人沉迷于網(wǎng)絡(luò)，讓“我”思考未來的世界會是什么樣的。

1.while表示“當…的時候；在…期間”，后接進行時態(tài)。

2.根據(jù)上下文可知，作者身處人人沉迷于網(wǎng)絡(luò)的網(wǎng)吧里所體會到的孤獨感。

3.上下文有因果關(guān)系。

4.由上下文可知，作者之所以感到孤獨，是因為其它人的靈魂都屬于網(wǎng)絡(luò)。

5.從下文可知，Steve是坐在電腦前面，而不是睡在電腦前。

6.從作者叫他很多聲才答應(yīng)可知他正忙于上網(wǎng)，無暇顧及其它。

7.“busy”是因為他邊在線聊天，“同時”還打電腦游戲。

8.用排除法可知作者當時十分的驚訝，而不是害怕。

9.作者試圖再次與Steve交談，again或once again/more再一次；once一次；曾經(jīng)。

10.but表示轉(zhuǎn)折。“但是”他任不理會作者。

11.用unhappy表達作者被冷落的不滿情緒。

12.當“我”用手遮住電腦屏幕的時候，Steve受不了了，大叫“讓我一個人呆著/離我遠點”。

13.“我”“抬起頭”看到，與下文連貫。

14.at that moment表示“這時，我意識到了…”

15.表示“對電腦比對人更感興趣”，本題容易誤選C項，be careful about小心，當心；而care about關(guān)心，在乎。

16.由上題可知。

17.我不愿意去想象那會是一個怎么樣的世界“如果人們更喜歡與機器交往，而不是和人”

18.由上題可知。

19.我陷入沉思中，甚至沒有意識到咖啡味道很差，就如同Steve沒有注意到有個人在他旁邊一樣。

20.由上題可知。
