Question

【題目】Who wants to carry a bulky bag to school? No children. Nobody wants one shoulder to be lower than the other, and paining, too. In India, most of people would look at the reduction(減少) of textbooks as a way out. But in a country like America, there are always more choices. A company called goReader has created a “school bag” which is the size of a laptop computer, weighing about 1.5 kg. The goReader has a color screen and can “hold” all the textbooks that a student may need, says a report in The Asian Age newspaper.

The company plans to work closely with the publishers(出版商) of textbooks so that these books can be supplied on the Internet. All the students will have to do is to download their textbooks from the Internet. Taking notes and marking important parts of a lesson can be done just as lots of students have done on their textbooks before.

At present, the plan is being tested out in a university. Richard Katzmann, the owner of this company is having his creation tested at Chicago's DePaul University, where he studied. Does that mean it is goodbye to the new paper, and the smell of the black ink?

試題分析：這篇文章主要介紹了為了減輕書包的重量，美國發(fā)明了一種新的書包。它帶有顯示屏，學生只要下載教材到里面，就能夠把書包當課本用。這種書包已經(jīng)開始了試用，這是否意味著我們要告別紙質(zhì)教材呢 ？

【1】B詞義猜測題。從后文Nobody wants one shoulder to be lower than the other, and paining(疼痛) too.沒有人愿意一個肩膀比另一個肩膀低，并承受疼痛。從而判斷沒人愿意背大而中的書包，故選C。

(3)判斷推理題。在文章的第二三段，講了美國減輕書包重量這個方法的優(yōu)點，從而判斷作者認為這個方法更好，故選A。

【3】B推斷題。通讀整篇短文可知，作者認為美國人可能有解決這個問題更好的方法�？芍�故選B。

【4】C細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文中All the students will have to download their textbooks.學生要做的就是下載課本。從而判斷這種書包可以用做教材，故選C。

【5】C細節(jié)理解題。通過這種新的機器可知學生可以沒有課本就可以學習。故選C。
