问题     A new poll shows that people believe that computers and the Internet have made life better for Americans, but people also see some dangers in the trend toward computerization.
    The poll found that the public favors some government protection from cyber-problems(网络问题), but in general people are not especially concerned about issues such as information overload or the never-ending flow of phone calls, faxes and e-mails. A separate survey of children aged 10-17 shows that they have a more positive attitude about computers than adults do, and most have made use of up-to-date technology in their schools.
    The survey found that enthusiasm for computers and the Internet is found in all income groups, all regions of the country, all races, and most age groups. However, people over 60 and those towards the lower end of the income rank tend to show lower rates of computer ownership and Internet usage. The survey shows that "some kind of gap has been crossed: Computers are part of everyday life for most Americans, and the Internet is close behind."
The word "enthusiasm"(Line 1, Para. 3)is closest in meaning to ______.

选项 A、great love
B、great hatred
C、problem
D、advantage

答案A

解析 语义理解题。本题询问第三段第一行中单词enthusiasm与下面哪一个单词意思最接近。文章第二段表明了人们对电脑和因特网的热爱,文章第三段的第一句话是承接上面内容的,故这句话应该是讲人们对电脑和因特网的热爱的,所以单词enthusiasm是指“钟爱,热爱”的意思,故选项A为正确答案。
