My parents are green hands in modern technolo...

My parents are green hands in modern technology. Computers, cameras, mobile phones, iPods... You name it, and they just can't use them well!

Over the holidays, my parents had to ask me many times how to take a photograph on their mobile phones because they kept forgetting. Recently, to keep in touch while I am abroad, my mum decided to create a Weibo page. My mum only has 11 “friends"--two of them are me and my sister! And she comments on EVERY THING we do. It drives me crazy!

My mum has also recently heard of the “selfie (自拍) ” and tried to take few to show that she is “down with the kids”. However, she often forgets how to change the camera focus so it is facing towards her, and her finger is often covering the lens! She also often moves the camera when she takes a photo so that they come out unclear. It makes me laugh a lot, and luckily my friends have similar problems with their parents on technology.

Sometimes I get angry when my mum asks me how to do something on her computer. But I try to stay patient and help her. After all they're too important for us to get angry.

Computers are very important  to modern life. Many people think that in the future computers will be used in lots of everyday life. It is thought that we won’t have to go shopping because we will be able to get most things which are sold in shops on the Internet. There will be no more books because we will be able to get all texts from computers. The Internet will be used to play games, see films and buy food. Most telephone calls will be made by computers, too.

Some people are glad about these new ways of shopping and communicating. Others do not think that computers will replace our old ways.

Let’s look at books, for example. Some people think that one day we will not read books made of paper. Instead, we will buy and read books using computers. We will read texts on small pocket computers. The computers will keep many different books in them at the same time. We won’t need to turn lots of pages and paper will be saved. Computerized(计算机化) books will be used more and more.

Is Internet shopping such a pleasure as going to the shop? Many people say it is not. It is a pleasure to go in to shops and look at things you want to buy. It is also unlikely that many people will want to read large texts on our computers. Because paper books will perhaps be more friendly. Maybe computers won’t change these two habits.

1.In paragraph1 it is thought people will use computers for _______.

A. playing games, shopping and making telephone calls

B. making telephone calls, having meals and seeing films

C. seeing films, buying food, and going for holidays

D. playing games, making telephone calls and seeing the doctor

2.Paragraph 4 tells _______.

A. about the old and new ways of shopping and communicat ing

B. if the Internet will change our habits

C. about computerized books

D. about future uses of computers

3.The title for this passage is _______.

A. Computers will Replace Shops and Books.

B. Computers will be Used in the Future.

C. Computers will Do Everything for Man.

D. How Computers Change Our Habits

4.According to the writer’s view, which is right?

A. Computers will replace everything completely in our daily life in the future.

B. Computers will not be used at all in our daily life in the future.

C. Computers will not be used in shopping in the future.

九年级英语单项填空简单题查看答案及解析

It seems like technology is everywhere. Computers and smart phones are at the center of almost everything we do. They constantly (持续地) require our attention. We text our friends with them during the day, sleep with them by our beds and check our messages as soon as we wake up.

In the future, technology will no longer be interrupting us all the time. Instead, we will use calm technology which was first developed by scientist Mark Weiser in the 1970s. In his opinion, calm technology works quietly but constantly. We know it is there, but we don’t pay much attention to it. According to Mark, the best technology should be invisible (隐形的) and let you live your life.

We already use many different types of calm technology in our everyday lives. Do you have a smoke alarm (警报器) in your house? That smoke alarm is always there, checking the air for smoke and quietly keeping you safe. It only reminds you it’s there when you’ve burnt your bread! Or there may be lights in your home or school. When somebody passes in front of their sensors (传感器), the lights turn on. You don’t think about this type of technology until you see the light go on.

In the future, we can use calm technology to open the curtains (窗帘) for us in the morning, to turn down the heat when we leave, or even to choose the best music for us. The minute we walk through the door, our house will turn on the lights and music, and perhaps even start to prepare our dinner!

1.Which of the following is an example of calm technology?

A. A computer. B. A smart phone. C. A smoke alarm. D. A radio.

2.What does the underlined word “interrupting” mean?

A. Hurting. B. Protecting. C. Helping. D. Troubling.

3.What’s the main idea of the third paragraph?

A. Calm technology keeps us safe in many ways.

B. Calm technology can help you to do housework.

C. Calm technology has been used in our daily lives.

D. Calm technology plays an important part in schools.

4.What can’t we learn from the last paragraph?

A. We can use it to open the curtains in the morning.

B. We can use it to turn down the heat when we leave.

C. We can use it to choose the best music.

D. We can use it to wash dishes.

5.What can we infer from the passage?

A. The light won’t go on unless we touch the sensor.

B. Calm technology will make our life more convenient.

C. People will depend more on smart phones in the future.

D. People won’t have to work because of calm technology.
