For example, will radiation from electronic equipment destroy the environment? Should medical scientists change gene structures to prevent genetic disease or to create “more perfect” human beings? While people are arguing about these and others, technology continues to influence our everyday livesthe home, health and education, entertainment and communication, and so on.Some people carry on active social lives with computers their own or the ones in public places like cafes, social centers, libraries, and so on. Communicating with others in chat rooms, computer users can get to know people they might never meet in traditional ways. With live online video connections, two people with cameras in their computers can see and talk to each other from separate places.With modern telephone technology, most people stopped writing letttersespecially personal letters and notes. But now, writing to communicate has returned in electronic form, or e-mail, which is a way of sending messages from one computer to another. For some computer users, the wish to communicate intelligently or creatively with others makes them want to write better.Computer technology has also made it possible to run a house electronically. From turning lights on and off to starting the coffee and cooking the hot meal, computers are taking care of people at home. Many modern machines have computer chips that allow their owners to program them. For instance, you can “instruct” a microwave oven how to cook a dish. Most entertainment equipment operates with computer technology too. Computers can even start cars automatically so that on cold winter mornings you can get into a warmed-up vehicle and drive off.Although much of the technology in our everyday lives has good effects, there are some uses that raise questions. For example, are interactive media ( i.e., a combination of television, telephone, and computer) going to control minds, cause people to forget about family life and personal relationships? What effects will the genentic engineering of food have on peoples health? High-tech medical treatments can make a person live a much longer life, but can they improve the health and happiness of human beings? Only time will tell, but, in the meantime, science and technology will continue to move forward.（1）What does the underlined word “ chips” mean?A . thin pieces of potatoesB . small holesC . small pieces of woodD . central parts（2）We can know from the passage that _.A . technology never stops changing our everyday livesB . with computers each of us can live a comfortable lifeC . people can do more activities with computersD . the more you use computers, the better you might write（3）What can we infer from the underlined sentence in the last paragraph?A . The longer you live, the happier you are.B . High-tech medical treatments cant improve our health and happiness.C . High-tech medical treatments cant help us with everything.D . The writer questioned high-tech medical treatments somehow.（4）What is the best title for the passage?A . Science and New TechnologyB . Computers Change Our LivesC . Everyday Uses of TechnologyD . Only Time Will Tell13. （5分）任务型阅读Skyscrapers are very tall buildings in a city. Looking up at them might make you dizzy (眩晕的). _Skyscrapers are a .wonder, whether (不管) you are looking up or down.How can the buildings be so tall? Something that happened during the 1880s made it possible. _First, a man named William Jenney got the idea of using a steel frame to hold up the walls and floors (钢架支撑墙壁和地面) of a building Jenney s idea made it possible to build taller buildings so he is called the Father of the American skyscraper Second, the elevators （电梯）improved. _That helped people go up and down the tall buildings more easily.Back in the 1880s, Jenney s first tall building was 10 stories (楼层) high. _In 2004, Taipei 101, at 101 stories high, became the tallest building in the world. But soon the Burj Khalifa in Dubai overtook it in 2010.

Rooms usually stay in one place. Lifts travel up and down all day long.Sometimes a worker stands in the lift. He or she operates it up and down. In modern lifts there is no worker. People walk in. They know which floor they want. They push a button and the lift goes to that floor. It is all very fast and easy.Lifts are very important to us. Why? Think about a tall building. Maybe it has twenty floors. Maybe it has fifty or more. Who can walk up all the stairs? Maybe people can climb them one time. Can someone climb thirty floors to an office every day? Can small children walk up to their room on the twenty-fourth floor? Can their mothers and fathers carry food up all those stairs? Of course not.We can have high buildings because we have lifts.
