We are already familiar with computers—computers work for us at home, in offices and in factories. But it is also true that many children today are using computers at schools before they can write. What does this mean for the future? Are these children lucky or not?
Many people who do not know about computers think of them as machines that children play with. They worry that children do not learn from experience but just from pressing a button and that this is not good for them. They think that children are growing not knowing about the real world.
But people who understand more about computers say that computers can be very good for children. A computer can help them to learn about the real world more quickly,

Light travels at a speed which is about a million times faster than the speed of sound. You can get some idea of this difference by watching the start of a race. If you stand some distance away from the starter, you can see smoke from his gun before the sound reaches your ears.
This great speed of light produces some strange facts. Sunlight takes about 8 minutes to reach us. If you look at the light of the moon tonight, remember that the light
8
rays left the moon 1.3 seconds before they reached you. The nearest star is so far away that the light that you can see from it tonight started to travel towards you four years ago at a speed of nearly 2 million km. per minute. In some cases, the light from one of tonight’s stars had started on its journey to you before you were born.
Thus, if we want to be honest, we can’t say, “The stars are shining tonight.” We have to say instead, “The stars look pretty. They were shining four years ago, but their light has only just reached the earth.”
1. Light speed is ______ sound speed
A. as fast as B. a million times slower than
C. about millions of times faster than D. about a million times faster than

D. sound travels about a million times faster than light
3. Sunlight obviously (明显地) ______ than the light of the moon
A. has to travel a greater distance B. moves less quickly
C. travels much more quickly D. is less powerful(有力的)

A. the stars have been shining all the time
B. the stars seen tonight will shine four years later
C. the stars were shining long ago but seen tonight
D. the starlight seen today could be seen four years ago
1. D 事实细节题。由第1段第1句可知。
2. B 推理判断题。由第1段最后一句推出。
3. A 推理判断题。由第2段的第2句(太阳光到达地球需要8分钟) 和第3句(月光到达地球仅需1.3秒) 可推出(太阳光走过的距离明显远于月光)。
4. C 推理判断题。由最后一段的最后一句They were shining four years ago, but their light has only just reached the earth可推出。

Jack thought himself a basketball fan. He watched quite a lot of American NBA basketball games. Not only did he watch them, he spent much of his free time playing on the court too. Then came the final year of his middle school. All of his regular teammates stopped showing up on the court because they were simply too busy preparing for the high school entrance exam to play. He was, of course, under much stress himself, like everyone else. A good exam result meant a good high school; a mediocre(平庸的)score meant a mediocre school. Much was at stake. However, he loved basketball so much that he still found time to play, this time with a group of guys who were said to have skipped classes(逃课)before.
Some of his teachers started worrying about him. They asked his mother to go to school to let her know that Jack was hanging out with problem kids.
