2013高考英语杭州市一模(抢分题)强化训练(6)及答案
During the past few years,scientists over the world have suddenly found themselves productively engaged in task they once spent their lives avoiding writing,any kind of writing,but particularly letter writing.Encouraged by electronic mail’s surprisingly high speed,convenience and economy,people who never before touched the stuff are regularly,skillfully,even cheerfully tapping out a great deal of correspondence.
Electronic networks,woven into the fabric of scientific communication these days,are the route to colleagues in distant countries,shared data,bulletin boards and electronic journals.Anyone with a personal computer,a modem and the software to link computers over telephone lines can sign on.An estimated five million scientists have done so with more joining every day,most of them communicating through a bundle of interconnected domestic and foreign routes known collectively as the Internet,or net.Email is starting to edge out the fax,the telephone,overnight mail,and of course,land mail.It shrinks time and distance between scientific collaborators(合作者),in part because it is conveniently asynchronous(writers can type while their colleagues across time zones sleep;their message will be waiting).If it is not yet speeding discoveries,it is certainly accelerating communication.
Jeremy Bernstei,the physicist and science writer,once called email the physicist’s umbilical cord(生命线).Lately other people,too,have been discovering its connective virtues.Physicists are using it;college students are using it,everybody is using it,and as a sign that it has come of age,the New Yorker has celebrated its liberating presence with a cartoon—an appreciative dog seated at a keyboard,saying happily,“On the Internet,nobody knows you’re a dog.”
1.The reasons given below about the popularity of email can be found in the passage except .
A.direct and convenient B.timesaving in delivery

A.Electronic routes used to fax or correspond overnight.
B.Electronic routes used to read home and international journals.
C.Electronic routes waiting for correspondence while one is sleeping.
D.Electronic routes connected among millions of users,home and abroad.
3.What will happen to fax,land mail,overnight mail,etc.according to the writer?
A.They will coexist with email for a long time.
B.Fewer and fewer people will use them.
C.Their functions cannot be replaced by email.

No doubt every Senior 3 student wishes to be successful in the National College Entrance Examination.___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
书面表达:
No doubt every Senior 3 student wishes to be successful in the National college Entrance Examination. Yet what should we do in order to achieve success? Here are some suggestions.
First, it’s very important to have a right attitude, for a normal state of mind and self-confidence not only helps us to relax but also enables us to overcome difficulties bravely. Meanwhile, we should have a definite goal and a correct estimation of ourselves. Only in this way will we not be easily pleased or disappointed with what we have known and done. Besides, we’d better sometimes talk with our parents, teachers or classmates, who may help us out when we’re in trouble. Finally, striking a proper balance between study and rest keeps us energetic and a healthy diet is useful as well.
With these done, I think we can greatly improve our performance.
