She was my English teacher when I was in junior high school. At first, I thought 1. English was so difficult that I gave up trying to learn it. But I changed my mind because of her. She was very kind to me and always told me I was the best. 2.She grew hope in my heart, and I began to become interested in learning English.

In the beginning, it was so hard. She often said, “There aren’t any shortcuts(捷径)in school. 3.如果你想学好英语,你得努力.” I remembered these words and they helped me a lot. I decided to do anything to overcome(克服)future difficulties and learn the language. With her help, I did better and became more confident(自信的)as well. 4.My teacher showed me how interesting and colorful English was.

What’s more, she was a true friend to me. 5.我们进述彼此的快乐和悲伤. She gave me lots of good advice. She was always there when I was not happy.

Maybe you will face some difficulties that you can’t solve. But don’t worry. Look at the people around you — you will find someone who can be there for you.

Computers are very important to modern life. Many people think that in the future computers will be used a lot in everyday’s 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 fewer 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(交际). Others do not think that computers will replace(代替) our old ways.

Let’s take books for example. Some people think that one day we won’t 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 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 into shops and look at things you want to buy. It is also unlikely(不大可能) 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(习惯).

1.In passage, the word “Internet” means ________ .

2.Which reason for using computerized books is NOT said in the passage?

3.In Paragraph(段落) 1 it is thought people will use computers for ________ .

4.Paragraph 4 tells ________ .

5.The title(题目) for this passage is “________”
