In modern society, online learning is popular with many people. For many of us, learning a language is a terrifying experience, just as opening a new set of books and CDs.

Babbel is a comprehensive online learning system that allows the user to combine learning with his or her everyday life. Launched in 2007 in Berlin, it’s created and maintained by a team of 300 employees from 28 nations, including linguists, language teachers, native speakers, and authors.

The 14 language courses on offer (including French, Spanish, Polish, German, Swedish and English) are designed to be used on the go, anywhere and at any time, thanks to Babbel’s multi-platform mobile apps. These courses are free to download and contain 2,000—3,000 vocabulary words per language, pronounced by native speakers and accompanied by relevant images.

This native-speaker approach, says Markus Witte, CEO and founder of Babbel, is key to the company’s success. “The courses are designed by experienced language teachers and linguists,” he explains. “Their knowledge about learning processes and language pairings is crucial when designing lessons. We offer 14 learning languages and it makes a huge difference whether a Portuguese or an English native learns Spanish.”

One of the real joys is being able to set your own pace and learn what you want. Simply choose the language you want and start learning it right away with integrated speech recognition.

The lessons are quick, bite-sized and entertaining. 50% of Babbel users learn with apps. Witte says, “This mobile language learning supports Babbel’s idea of easy learning.

Modern inventions have speeded up people’s lives amazingly. Motor-cars cover a hundred miles in little more than an hour, aircraft cross the world a day, while computers operate at lightning speed. Indeed, this love of speed seems never-ending. Every year motor-cars are produced which go even faster each new computer boasts（吹嘘）of saving precious seconds in handling tasks.

All this saves time, but at a price. When we lose or gain half a day in speeding across the world in an airplane, our bodies tell us so. We get the uncomfortable feeling known as jet-lag; our bodies feel that they have been left behind in another time zone. Again, spending too long at computers results in painful wrists and fingers. Mobile phones also have then danger according to some scientists; too much use may transmit harmful radiation into our brains, a consequence we do not like to think about.

However, what do we do with the time we have saved? Certainly not relax, or so it seems. We are so accustomed to constant activity that we find it difficult to sit and do nothing or even just one thing at a time. Perhaps the days are long gone when we might listen quietly to a story on the radio, letting imaginations take us into another world.

There was a time when some people’s lives were devoted simply to the cultivation of the land or the care of cattle. No multi-tasking there; their lives went on at a much gentler pace, and in a familiar pattern. There is much that we might envy about a way of life like this. Yet before we do so, we must think of the hard tasks our ancestors faced; they farmed with bare hands, often lived close to hunger, and had to fashion tools from wood and stone. Modern machinery has freed people from that primitive existence.

1.The new products become more and more time-saving because ______.

A. our love on speed seems never-ending

B. time is limited

C. the prices are increasingly high

D. the manufacturers boast a lot

2.What is the author’s attitude towards the modern technology?

A. Critical　　 B. Objective

C. Optimistic　　　 D. Negative

3.What does the passage mainly discuss?

A. The present and past times

B. Machinery and human beings

C. Imaginations and inventions

D. Modern technology and its influence
