8.As computers become all the more popular in China,Chinese people are increasingly relying on computer keyboards to input Chinese characters(漢字).But if they use the computer too much,they may end up forgetting the exact strokes(筆畫)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 wide-spread among university students.Almost all their writings 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 used 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(審美的) value.But those characters typed with computer keyboards only keep their practical value.All the artistic beauty of the characters is lost.And handwriting(書寫) 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.

分析 隨著電腦在中國的普及,中國人正在逐漸地依賴電腦鍵盤來輸入漢字.但是如果過多使用電腦,人們就會忘記漢字的筆畫.專家建議人們,尤其是學生,多用手寫字.
解答 29.A 主旨大意題.根據(jù)第一段內(nèi)容可知,文章主要講的是電腦的普及對手寫漢字帶來的威脅,長期使用電腦,有忘記漢字筆畫的危險.根據(jù)第二段"Do you write by hand more or type more?"可知,在生活中,應該用電腦打字,還是手寫呢?故選A.
30.A.細節(jié)理解題.根據(jù)第四段的"It's faster and easier to correct if using a computer."和第七段中"Nowthat it"s more convenient and efficient to write on a computer,whybother to handwrite?"可知,學生依賴電腦是因為電腦方便,快捷,修改容易.所以使用電腦能快速、容易發(fā)現(xiàn)并改正錯誤,故選A.
31.B 詞義猜測題.根據(jù)前面的"And that's why computers are being used more and more often tomodern education."這就是為什么計算機越來越多地被應用于現(xiàn)代教育的原因.可知,But when people are taking stock in computers increasingly,problemsappear.但是當人們越來越多地使用計算機時,問題就出現(xiàn)了.所以"taking stock in"意為"依賴",故選B.
32.C 推理判斷題.根據(jù)最后一段"To encourage students to handwrite more,manyprimary schools in Beijing have made writing classes compulsory(必修的) and inuniversities,some professors are asking students to turn in their homework and essayswritten by hand."可知,許多小學把書法定為必修課,許多大學也開始要求手寫作業(yè)和文章.由此可見,越來越多的學生會注意手寫,故選C.
