A funny thing happened on the way to the communications revolution: we stopped talking to one another.

I was walking in the park with a friend recently, and his cell phone rang, interrupting our conversation. There we were walking and talking on a beautiful sunny day and... I became invisible, absent from the conversation. The telephone used to connect you to the absent. Now it makes people sitting next to you feel absent. Why is it that the more connected we get, the more disconnected I feel? Every advance in communications technology is a tragedy to the closeness of human interaction（互动）. With email and instant messaging over the internet, we can now communicate without seeing or talking to one another. With voice mail, you can conduct entire conversations without ever reaching anyone. If my mom has a question, I just leave the answer on her machine.

As almost every contact we can imagine between human beings gets automated（自动化）, the alienation index（疏远指数） goes up. You can't even call a person to get the phone number of another person any more. Directory assistance is almost always fully automated.

I am not against modern technology. I own a cell phone, an ATM card, a voice mail system, and an email account. Giving them up isn't wise... they're a great help to us. It's some of their possible consequences that make me feel uneasy.

More and more. I find myself hiding behind e­mail to do a job meant for conversation. Or being relieved that voice mail picked up because I didn't really have time to talk. The industry devoted to helping me keep in touch is making me lonelier ...or at least facilitating my antisocial instincts.

So I've put myself on technology restriction: no instant messaging with people who live near me, no cell phoning in the presence of friends, no letting the voice mail pick up when I'm at home.

1.Which of the following would be the best title of the passage?

A. The Advance of Communications Technology　　

B. The Consequences of modern Technology

C. The Story of Communications Revolution　　

D. The Automation of Modern Communications

2.The sentence “Now it makes people sitting next to you feel absent” means that ________.

A. the people sitting beside you have to go away to receive a phone call

B. you can hardly get in touch with the people sitting beside you

C. modern technology makes it hard for people to have a face-­to­-face talk

D. people can now go to work without going to the office

3.The writer feels that the use of modern communications is ________.

A. satisfying　　 B. encouraging　 C. disappointing D. embarrassing

4.The passage implies that ________.

A. modern technology is bridging the people　

B. modern technology is separating the people

C. modern technology is developing too fast

D. modern technology is interrupting our communication

高二英语阅读理解简单题查看答案及解析

When you see someone you know, the easiest way to recognize them is by their face—but not everyone can do this. Many people have prosopagnosia, or face blindness, which is a neurological（神经病学的）condition where the part o the brain that recognizes faces fails to develop. It can stop people recognizing partners, family members, friends or even their own reflection. It was once though to be caused by brain injury (acquired prosopagnosia) but now a genetic link has been proved (development prosopagnosia).

Acquired prosopagnosia is a very rare but as many as one in 50 people may have developmental prosopagnosia. There’s no specific treatment, but training programmes are being developed to help improve facial recognition.

For many, the situation can be dangerous. I’ve heard stories of people being robbed by strangers claiming to be family members, or of children wandering off strange men.

It was only is this century that researchers began to realize exactly how many people in this world were quietly living with the condition.

Like a blind person who can recognize family members by their footsteps, prosopagnosics are forced to develop unusual ways of discovering who it is they’re meeting or talking to. From the obvious markers like hair and voice, to the way one sits, stands or walks, they rely on dozens of means to get through ordinary life.

Faces are an important part of identity. Not to be recognized feels terrible—it’s as if you’ve been overlooked, like someone’s saying you don’t matter. But it’s nothing to the pain of knowing that you’re hurting people’s feelings constantly, and yet being completely unaware that you’re doing it in the moment. To be alienated（隔离的）from the world of faces is a strange position to be in, but I’m comforted by the thought that articles like this will do a little to help people forgive me and others like me.

1.Why do some people have developmental prosopagnosia?

A. Mainly due to brain injury.

B. Mainly due to their life styles.

C. Mainly for biological reasons.

D. Mainly for psychological reasons.

2.What can we learn about prosopagnosia?

A. We can do nothing to deal with it.

B. One fifth of people suffer from it.

C. It can be cured by training programmes.

D. Developmental prosopagnosia is more common.

3.Like a blind person, people with prosopagnosia ________.

A. depend on their families for a normal life.

B. are embarrassed about their condition.

C. are usually laughed at by other people.

D. have special ways to recognize people

4.What can we infer about people with prosopagnosia from the last paragraph?

A. They are unfriendly to others.

B. They feel hurting others doesn’t matter.

C. They often make others feel ignored.

D. They avoid communicating with others.

A good teacher is many things to many people. In my own experience, the people I respect the most and think about the most are the teachers who demanded the most discipline (纪律) from their students.

I miss one teacher in particular that I had in high school. I think she was a good teacher because she was a very strict person. I remember very clearly a sign on her classroom door. It was a simple sign that said,　　 "Laboratory: in this room the first five letters of the word was stressed not the last seven." In other words, labor for her was more important than oratory, which means making speeches.

She prepared her work very carefully and told us to do the same. We got lots of homework from her. Once she had broken her arm, and everybody in the class thought that maybe the homework load would be reduced, but it continued just the same. She checked our work by stamping her name at the bottom of the papers to show that she had read them.

I think sometimes teachers who demand the most are liked the least. But as time goes by, this discipline really seems to benefit the students.

1.Which of the following is considered a good teacher by the writer?

A. A patient teacher.

B. An honest teacher.

C. A strict teacher.

D. An easy-going teacher.

2.When the teacher's arm was broken, she _____.

A. gave her students the usual amount of homework

B. gave her students less homework

C. asked her students to check the homework themselves

D. gave her students more homework

3.What's the writer's opinion of discipline?

A. It makes the students dislike their teachers.

B. It does good to the students in the long run.

C. It's too much for young children.

D. It does more harm than good to the students.

4.What's the Chinese for the underlined word "oratory"?

A. 演讲　　 B. 讲稿

C. 访谈　　 D. 采访
