Question

Chinese people are now spending more time surfing the net than watching TV, according to results of a survey by the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences (CASS) published Thursday.

The survey, of citizens of five Chinese cities, found that 79 percent of interviewees use the internet for information, and 55.1 percent to read news on the internet. About 63 percent of the interviewees use e-mail. The average times spent surfing the net and watching TV were 2.73 hours and 1.29hours, respectively.

Only 10.4 percent reported use the internet primarily to send and receive email; 65.9 percent read online news; 62.2 quite often play games on-line. More and more people have taken an interest in the entertainment opportunities online. Up to 56.5 percent of interviewees quite often download music, and 53.5 percent get entertainment messages from the internet.

Yet the survey found that television is still the dominant mass medium. Seventy-nine percent of interviewees choose to watch TV to get information, and another 75 percent take newspapers as important as TV.

Five major web sites in the Chinese language, namely Sina, Sohu, Netease, Baidu and Yahoo are still ranked top ones by web users, and those that voted for Sina as the best among them were 30.9 percent.

Authorized statistics showed that web users in China have already exceeded 100 million, second to that of the United States.

試題分析：本文主要介紹中國人現(xiàn)在花在上網(wǎng)的時間要比花在看電視上的時間多，上網(wǎng)人數(shù)已雄居世界第二位，大多數(shù)人上網(wǎng)的目的是獲取信息、閱讀新聞、收發(fā)郵件等。

1.細(xì)節(jié)題：依據(jù)第二段的調(diào)查數(shù)字，使用e-mail的約占63%，網(wǎng)上獲取信息約占79%，因此在網(wǎng)上獲取信息的人比使用e-mail的多，C錯誤

2.排除題：A項應(yīng)為最初的上網(wǎng)意圖，B項應(yīng)為超過一半以上，C項應(yīng)為62.2%的人喜歡在網(wǎng)上玩游戲。從第二段的句子：55.1 percent to read news on the internet.可知選D

3.依據(jù)常識? QQ聊天軟件是目前流行最廣、最受廣大青少年所歡迎的網(wǎng)上交友、聊天工具。選D
