10、imecrunch的影响，可见thesametimecrunch是指空闲时间不够用，故C正确。2 .B观点态度题。第2段第2句中括号里的内容表明了作者的观点。转折词Nevertheless说明作者的观点跟上文SandraHofferth的看法不完全一致，而作者在下文举例中提到，单身母亲因为要上班，与孩子在起的时间只有9个小时，确实少了很多，这与Hofferth所述一致，因此选B。3 .B事实细节题。第3段最后一句表明孩子自由玩乐能促使他们独立思考，并使他们学会处理与同龄关系，其中unstructuredplay相当于B中的playinhisownway，故B正确。4 .A观点态度题。文章一开头

11、作者就说孩子们比1981年时上学的时间每周多8小时，他们还做更多的家务,参加更多的有组织性的活动等等,而这些均是造成孩子们空闲时间越来越少的原因，而孩子们空闲时间少也正是作者忧虑的问题，故可推知本题选A。B是作者在第2段括号里反驳过的观点；C错在moreandmoretime，而且作者对孩子看电视也不完全反对;孩子们事实上要做更多家务，故D错。5 .D推理判断题。文章最后一段倒数第2句说“尽管父母费尽心思培养孩子的读书兴趣，可孩子们一周也只不过花一个多小时读书”。由此可见,父母认为读书对孩子有好处，即D。A中的extracurricularactivities包含structuredandun

12、structuredactivities，文中只说unstructuredactivities有助于培养孩子独立思考以及与同龄人交往的能力，没有说structuredactivities对intelligence有什么帮助;B与文章的倒数第3句不符;C与倒数第2句不符。Thereisnodenyingthatstudentsshouldlearnsomethingabouthowcomputerswork,justasweexpectthematleasttounderstandthattheinternal-combustionengine（内燃机）hassomethingtodowithb

22、 .C推理判断题。第2段提到未来有能力的人应该从恐惧中解脱出来，第3段则提到学习计算机则就像是“学开车”一样，只要掌握某套技能即可，故可知有能力的人只需要通过掌握技能学习计算机即可，而不必学习编程，故C正确。2 .D词义理解题。在第2段中，作者强调一般人只需学会使用计算机，而不必学会编程，最后指出这与“汽车修理”和“小提琴制作”一样，可见作者提到“汽车修理”（类似一般人使用计算机）和“小提琴创作”（数似于电脑专业人员编程）还是为了说明上文的观点，故D正确。3 .B事实细节题。第3段首句提到学习使用计算机越来越容易的原因是计算机编程变得更user-friendly,B中的convenienttousers与此相符，故正确。4 .C句意理解题。第4段指出教人学习使用计算机就是教人usethisorthatprogram，故C与此相符。5 .B主旨大意题。本文围绕学生应如何学习计算机，阐述计算机能力（computerliteracy）的概念;它只是一种技能，故B正确。A、C、D均只是利用文中的片言只语拼凑而成的干扰项，不足以概括文章大意。10/ 9
