As computers become more popular in China , Chinese people are increasingly relying on computer keyboards to input Chinese characters . But if they use the computer too much , they may end up forgetting the exact strokes(笔画)of each Chinese character when writing on paper . Experts suggest people , especially students , write by hand more .

Do you write by hand more or type more ? In Beijing , students start using a computer as early as primary school . And computer dependence is more widespread among university students . Almost all their assignments and essays are typed on a computer .

All the students interviewed say they usually use a computer .

It’s faster and easier to correct if using a computer . And that’s why computers are being applied more and more often to modern education . But when people are taking stock in computers increasingly , problems appear .

“ When I’m writing with a pen , I find I often can’t remember how to write a character , though I feel I’m familiar with it .”

“ I’m not in the mood to write when faced with a pen and paper .”

Many students don’t feel this is something to worry about . Now that it’s more convenient and efficient to write on a computer , why bother to handwrite ?

Many educators think differently . Shi Liwei , the headmaster of a famous primary school in the capital said “ Chinese characters enjoy both practical and aesthetic(审美的)value . But those characters typed with computer keyboards only maintain their practical value . All the artistic beauty of the characters is lost . And handwriting contains the writer’s emotion . Through one’s handwriting , people can get to know one’s thinking and personality . Beautiful writing will give people a better first impression of them .”

To encourage students to handwrite more , many primary schools in Beijing have made writing classes compulsory(必修的)and in universities , some professors are asking students to turn in their homework and essays written by hand .

1.Which of the following can best serve as the title of the passage ?

A.The Importance of Handwriting and Typing .

B.To Type or to Handwrite .

C.Writing by Computer Will Replace Writing by Hand

D.Practical and Aesthetic Value of Chinese Characters

2.The students interviewed prefer to write using a computer mainly because       .

A.they are usually asked to email their homework and essays

B.they can correct the mistakes they make quickly and conveniently

C.they find it not easy to remember how to write a character

D.computers have become a trend and fashion in China

3. Which of the following statements is NOT true of the advantages of handwriting ?

A.Handwriting contains the writer’s emotion .

B.The writer’s thinking and personality are shown in his or her handwriting .

C.Handwriting can impress people well and build one’s self-confidence .

D.Chinese characters enjoy both practical and aesthetic value .

4. The underlined expression “ taking stock in ” ( Paragraph 4 ) probably means       .

A.getting bored with

B.getting dependent on

C.becoming crazy about

D.getting curious about

5. We can draw the conclusion from the passage that       .

“ I’d like to be at a healthier weight , ” a friend told me . “ But we just don’t have the money to buy expensive diet foods and there isn’t enough money to join a gym .” Many people feel that way—that a healthy diet and exercise plan is out of reach because of their high cost . Don’t lose hope ! We’ll be looking at ways to make healthy choices without spending too much money .

First you don’t need to buy the expensive pre-prepared “ diet foods . ” Back in the early 1970s when I started housekeeping , 90% of the food I bought was ingredients . Very few things were preprocessed(预处理的). Now 90% of the food you find in the store is quick food . That’s a bad thing .

Quick foods like boxed “ just add hamburger ” meals have had the fiber removed to make them faster to prepare . Take a look at the label on that box . It often has low numbers listed under “ fiber ” because fiber takes longer to digest . If the low fiber meal is digested , the result is that your body begins to store fat . Besides , your body is short of nutrients(营养物质). You will be driven to eat more to try to make up for the low quality of the food you are eating .

And then there are the chemicals the producers add to the quick meals to make them palatable . If not , the stuff would taste like cardboard and you wouldn’t enjoy it . However , these chemicals certainly aren’t good for your health .

What’s the answer ? Buy whole ingredients and give up the expensive , low nutrition , processed foods . Do the cooking yourself and you will have control over what is in your food —and it will cost less , too .

1.People who find it hard to get a healthier weight think        .

A.they had too much diet foods

B.they didn’t make a detailed plan

C.they have no time to do exercise in gym

D.they can’t afford diet foods and to exercise in gym

2. The author doesn’t like quick food mainly because       .

A.it contains too much fat

B.it makes people eat less

C.it has low fiber

D.it takes longer to digest

3.The underlined word “ palatable ” in Paragraph 4 probably means “       ”.

A.fresh

B.delicious

C.healthy

D.simple

4.The author suggests in the text that people should       .

A.control the amount of food

B.eat more processed foods

C.cook food for themselves

D.choose cheap ingredients

5.Which of the following best shows the structure of the passage ? (①="Paragraph" 1,

②="Paragraph" 2 ,…⑤="Paragraph" 5)

A.①/②③④/⑤

B.①②/③④/⑤
