If I ask you “What is the most important in your life?”maybe you will say “Computers and the Internet.”The first computer was made in 1946. it was very big but it worked slowly.

A writer has said, “People can’t live without computers today.”The Internet came a little later than computers. It is about twenty-five years later than computers. But now it can be found almost everywhere. We can use it to read books, writer letters, do shopping, play computer games or make friends.Many students like the Internet very much. They often go into the Internet as soon as they are free. They make friends on the Internet and maybe they have never seen these friends. They don’t know their real names, ages, and even sex. They are so interested in making the “unreal friends”that they can’t put their hearts into study. Many of them can’t catch up with others on many subjects because of that.We can use computers and the Internet to learn more about the world.

Young American Volunteers(E)“Cool” is a word with many meanings. Its old meaning is used to express a temperature that is a little bit cold. As the world has changed, the word has had many different meanings. “Cool” can be used to express feelings of interest in almost anything.When you see a famous car in the street, maybe you will say, “It’s cool.” You may think, “He’s so cool,” wh en you see your favourite footballer. We all maximize (扩大) the meaning of “cool”. You can use it instead of many words such as “new” or “surprising”. Here’s an interesting story we can use to show the way the word is used. A teacher asked her students to write about the waterfall (瀑布) they had visited. On one student’s paper was just the one sentence, “It’s so cool.” Maybe he thought it was the best way to show what he saw and felt.But the story also shows a scarcity(缺乏) of words. Without “cool”, some people have no words to show the same meaning. So it is quite important to keep some credibility(可信性). Can you think of many other words that make your life as colourful as the word “cool”? I can. And I think they are also very cool.( ) 61. We know that the word “cool” has had ______.A. only one meaningB. no meaningsC. many different meaningsD. the same meaning( ) 62. In the passage, the word “express” means “______.”A. seeB. showC. knowD. feel( ) 63.
