问题     A scientist once said that the Internet was the world’s largest library, but it can be difficult to find just what you’re looking for. The Internet has another drawback, too. Anyone can create a website, and you can find every subject on them. Unluckily, a lot of information isn’t true!
    You can download music and films either for free or for a small charge from the Internet. Other sites allow you to get in touch with people from all over the world and there are some online shops.
    The Internet has changed the way we work and communicate, but we shouldn’t depend on it too much. Because it’s very difficult to control and a lot of the information isn’t worth reading. Some people are also afraid that surfing the net has taken the place of other healthier activities, especially for young people. Whether you like it or hate it, you’d better get used to it because it’s here to stay!
    Here’s a survey about how people of my age use the Internet. 80% of them said it can help them with their homework. 70% said it can keep in touch with their friends. 40% said that they downloaded music from the Internet. And 30% said they bought something online. Only 10% said they couldn’t use the Internet very often because they didn’t have a computer at home.
The underlined word "drawback" in the first paragraph means "______".
选项 A、advantage
B、difficulty
C、strong point
D、disadvantage
答案D
解析 词义推测题。由第一段第一句可知，网络的一个弊端是：要找到自己想要的信息很困难。由第一段最后一句“Unluckily，a lot of information isn’t true!”可知，这里谈到的是互联网的另一个弊端，因此drawback与disadvantage同义。
