表達(dá)的信息是錯(cuò)誤的，故答案為B。6.A題句說(shuō)Masson預(yù)言在英格蘭東南部遲早將發(fā)生另一次地震。這一說(shuō)法與短文最后一段第三句所表達(dá)的意思相符。所以答案是A。7.A短文第六段第一句說(shuō)，全球每年發(fā)生強(qiáng)度為里氏4級(jí)左右的地震有幾千次，但是這種中等強(qiáng)度的地震在英格蘭很少發(fā)生。據(jù)此，讀者可以容易地推斷出，高震級(jí)的地震在英格蘭就更少見(jiàn)了。*第十一篇ComputerMouseThebasiccomputermouseisanamazinglycleverinventionwitharelativelysimpledesignthatallowsustopointatthingsonthecomputeranditisveryproductive.Thinkofallthethingsyoucandowithamouselikeselectingtextforcopyingandpasting1，drawing，andevenscrollingonthepagewiththenewermicewiththewheel.Mostofususethecomputermousedailywithoutstoppingtothink2howitworksuntilitgetsdirtyandwehavetolearnhowtocleanit.Welearntopointatthingsbeforewelearntospeak，sothemouseisaverynaturalpointingdevice.Qthercomputerpointingdevicesincludelightpens，graphicstabletsandtouchscreens，butthemouseisstillourworkhorse.Thecomputermousewasinventedin1964byDouglasEnglehartofStanfordUniversity.Ascomputerscreensbecamemorepopularandarrowkeyswereusedtomovearoundabodyoftext，itbecameclearthatapointingdevicethatallowedeasiermotionthroughthetextandevenselectionoftextwouldbeveryuseful.Theintroductionofthemouse，withtheAppleLisacomputerin1983，reallystartedthecomputerpublicontheroadtorelyingonthemouseforroutinecomputertasks.3Howdoesthemousework?Wehavetostartatthebottom，sothinkupsidedownfornow.Itallstartswiththemouseball.Asthemouseballinthebottomofthemouserollsoverthemousepad，itpressesagainstandturnstwoshafts.Theshaftsareconnectedtowheelswithseveralsmallholesinthem.Thewheelshaveapairofsmallelectroniclight-emittingdevicescalledlight-emittingdiodes(LED)mountedoneitherside4.OneLEDsendsalightbeamtotheLEDontheotherside.Asthewheelsspinandaholerotatesby，thelightbeamgetsthroughtotheLEDontheotherside.Butamomentlaterthelightbeamisblockeduntilthenextholeisinplace.TheLEDdetectsachangingpatternoflight，convertsthepatternintoanelectronicsignal，andsendsthesignaltothecomputerthroughwiresinacablethatgoesoutofthemousebody.Thiscableisthetailthathelpsgivethemouseitsname.Thecomputerinterpretsthesignaltotellitwheretopositionthecursoronthecomputerscreen.Sofarwehaveonlydiscussedthebasiccomputermousethatmostofyouprobablyhaveorhaveused.5Oneproblemwiththisdesignisthatthemousegetsdirtyastheballrollsoverthesurfaceandpicksupdirt.Eventuallyyouhavetocleanyourmouse.Theneweropticalmiceavoidthisproblembyhavingnomovingparts.詞匯:scroll/skrul/v.(在顯示屏上)上下移動(dòng)文本pad/pd/n.墊板mousepad鼠標(biāo)墊板graphics/grfiks/n.圖形，圖表tablet/tblit/n.書(shū)寫(xiě)板graphicstablet圖形書(shū)寫(xiě)板workhorse/w:kh:s/n.重負(fù)荷工作部件shaft/a:ft/n.軸，桿狀物emit/imit/v.射出diode/daiud/n.二極管cursor/k:Sr/n.光標(biāo)optical/ptikl/adj.光學(xué)的注釋:1.copyingandpasting:復(fù)制和粘貼2.withoutstoppingtothink:沒(méi)有停下來(lái)想一下。stop+動(dòng)詞不定式是停下來(lái)去做某件事，stop+動(dòng)名詞是停止做某件事。例如:Westoppedtorestforawhile.我們停下來(lái)休息一會(huì)兒。Hestoppedsmoking.他停止抽煙。3.startedthecomputerpublicontheroadtorelyingonthemouseforroutinecomputertasks.使廣大計(jì)算機(jī)用戶開(kāi)始踏上一條依賴鼠標(biāo)完成常規(guī)計(jì)算機(jī)工作的道路。computerpublic:廣大計(jì)算機(jī)用戶。roadto中的to是介詞，所以后接動(dòng)名詞relying。4.mountedoneitherside=mountedonbothsides5.Sofarwehaveonlydiscussedthebasiccomputermousethatmostofyouprobablyhaveorhaveused.到目前為止，我們只限于討論大多數(shù)人應(yīng)該擁有或用過(guò)的基本型的計(jì)算機(jī)鼠標(biāo)。練習(xí):1.Mostcomputeruserswanttoknowhowthecomputermouseworks.ARightBWrongCNotmentioned2.Accordingtotheauthor，generalcomputerusersneednottoknowhowthecomputermousewasinvented.ARightBWrongCNotmentioned3.Thecomputermousederivesitsnamefromthecablethatgoesoutitsbody，whichlookslikethetailofamouse.ARightBWrongCNotmentioned4.ThekeycomponentsofacomputermousearethetwoLEDs.ARightBWrongCNotmentioned5.Whenanordinarycomputermousegefsdirty，ithastobereplacedwithanewone.ARightBWrongCNotmentioned6.ThemostdurablecomputermiceonsalearetheIBMones.ARightBWrongCNotmentioned7.Theopticalmouseissuperiortothebasiconeinthattheformerhasnomovingparts.ARightBWrongCNotmentioned答案與題解:1.B題句的意思是大多數(shù)計(jì)算機(jī)使用者都想了解鼠標(biāo)的工作原理。這與短文的介紹不符。短文第一段第三句說(shuō)，大多數(shù)計(jì)算機(jī)使用者天天用計(jì)算機(jī)，卻沒(méi)有想到要了解一下鼠標(biāo)的工作原理。題句的信息是錯(cuò)誤的，故答案為B。2.C題句表達(dá)的意思是，短文作者認(rèn)為一般計(jì)算機(jī)使用者無(wú)須了解鼠標(biāo)是如何發(fā)明的。題句表達(dá)的內(nèi)容短文中找不到，故答案為C。3.A題句說(shuō)鼠標(biāo)的名稱源自鼠標(biāo)主體拖出的一根看上去像鼠尾巴的電線，這與短文第三段倒數(shù)第二句、第三句所介紹的信息相符，所以，本題選項(xiàng)A是正確答案。4.A短文的第三段說(shuō)到，鼠標(biāo)的部件有滾動(dòng)部件如滾球，還有光電裝置如二極管等。二極管將光信號(hào)轉(zhuǎn)換為電信號(hào)，傳送到計(jì)算機(jī)，計(jì)算機(jī)根據(jù)收到的電信號(hào)作出相應(yīng)的反應(yīng)，因此，二極管是鼠標(biāo)的主要部件，而滾輪等只是輔助性的機(jī)械部件。題句對(duì)短文信息的推斷是正確的，故答案為A。5.B題句說(shuō)鼠標(biāo)臟了，就得更換新的。這一說(shuō)法與短文包含的信息不符。第一段第三句和末段倒數(shù)第二句都提到，鼠標(biāo)臟了，可以擦干凈再用。題句的信息是錯(cuò)誤的，故答案為B。6.C題句說(shuō)，當(dāng)前市場(chǎng)上出售的最耐用的鼠標(biāo)是IBM生產(chǎn)的鼠標(biāo)。這一說(shuō)法短文中找不到，故答案為C。7.A末段說(shuō)到光電鼠標(biāo)因?yàn)闆](méi)有普通鼠標(biāo)使用的滾動(dòng)部件，所以不會(huì)吸附灰塵，用不著擦拭，這是一種新型的鼠標(biāo)。題句是對(duì)短文信息的一種合理推斷，所以選項(xiàng)A是正確的。概括大意與完成句子第六篇HowWeFormFirstlmpression1WeallhavefirstimpressionOfsomeonewejustmet.Butwhy?WhydoweformanopinionaboutSomeonewithoutreallyknowinganythingabouthimorher-asideperhapsfromafewremarksorreadilyobservabletraits.2Theanswerisrelatedtoh
