W: Hi, Robert, you are 20 now, right?
M: Right.
W: What do you think about what Nina said?
M: I definitely agree that younger people are less intimidated by technology. But when I compare myself with other people my age, I don’t see myself as particularly good with computers. But this summer, I worked in an office with lots of adults, and I realized that I am a lot more comfortable with technology than they are.
W: Do you use e-mail a lot?
M: Well, I do agree that letters make better keepsakes, but e-mail’s just so much more convenient! For example, I’m away at college now, and I don’t know how I could keep in touch with my high school friends without e-mail. I like e-mail, because it’s a casual form of communication.
W: How often would you say that you e-mail people?
M: Well, I check my e-mail at least 5 times a day, I would estimate, actually probably a bit more. I also have "IM", that is, instant messaging, configured so that it loads the program automatically whenever it turn on my computer, so I am on that a lot as well. It definitely makes you spend more time on the computer than you meant to.
W: So young people are better with computers than the adults?
M: I don’t know if kids are really better at computers or just more used to them. Computers can definitely be mtimidating, especially when they go wrong. For people who aren’t familiar with them, I think a typical response is to use them as little as possible. My dad is like that. But once you get over your initial fear of just fiddling around with them and testing things out, it becomes a lot more fun.
W: What about your friends?
M: Well, I guess my generation is hooked on the Internet. But people don’t make it their whole life. It’s just one other thing they like to do. It really opens up a lot of doors, the Internet, it makes lots of things accessible. My college now is a pretty web-based school.
W: Do you think the Internet has any disadvantages?
M: Well, something that is bad about the Internet is that not everyone has access to it. I feel like when my generation is grown up and part of the work force, computer skills are just going to be assumed. They won’t be an added asset like I think they are today. So what will happen to the people in my generation who don’t have these computer skills, you know? They are really going to be at a disadvantage.
6. What does Robert definitely agree with?
7. What is the advantage of letters according to Robert?
8. What makes Robert spend more time on the computer?
9. What does Robert think is bad about the Internet?
10. According to Robert, what will happen to people in his generation without computer skills?
选项
A、Younger people are more comfortable with technology.
B、Adults are less intimidated by technology than they used to be.
C、He is better with computers than other people his age.
D、Most of his friends are more addicted to games than he is.
答案
A
解析
①由选项中的technology,computers,convenient,Internet等词可知对话的主题与电脑或网络科技的便利性相关。②女士问Robert对Nina说的怎么看,Robert回答说他非常同意年轻人没那么害怕科技,接着举了自己的例子说明。故A“年轻人更适应科技”正确,其中more comfortable是对less intimidated的同义替换。B“成年人没以前那么害怕科技”,C“他比同年龄的其他人更擅长计算机”与I don’t see myself as particularly good with computers相反。D“他大部分朋友比他更沉迷于游戏”没有在对话中提到。
