19.Recently we asked how you feel about calculators in school.We heard from about thirty people in twelve countries,including a large number of Chinese.For example,Turbo Zhang writes,"My brain is rusting (生銹).Why?Because I use calculators everywhere,on my mobile phone,on my computer,etc.New technology makes us use everything except our brain."Yes,calculators can provide us with an answer,but we may not understand it completely.Just as a student at an architectural and engineering college in China,Zhao Jingtao,says,using a calculator is"a kind of laziness".
Critics of using calculators in school,at least until high school or university,outnumbered supporters two to one.In their opinion,calculators affect badly the thinking ways of students because they don't need to make an effort to get a result.They should work out problems with some kind of pain without computers.Then they may come to appreciate the power of these sophisticated (精密的)machines.Also,it is good to use your brain because calculators are not always available.Heroin,a math teacher in Kurdistan--Iraq,says good math skills help in life.So he believes in solving problems with a pencil until high school.
But Wenbo from China says calculators reduce careless mistakes.When they were young they couldn't use calculators.But when entering high school,they have to solve a lot of math problems.They have to use a calculator.It makes their homework easier.So he insists,"The hand-held calculators has been important in my studies and even in my life."
And the education expert,Barnabas Nyaaba in Ghana,advises that"as we enjoy the use of calculators,let's be careful so that it does not have any bad effects on us."

分析 你是如何看待在學(xué)校使用計算器的呢?是支持還是反對?看看別人怎么說的吧!
解答 63-66.ADDB
63題答案:A考查細(xì)節(jié)推理,根據(jù)文章第二段的In their opinion,calculators affect badly the thinking ways of students because they don't need to make an effort to get a result.(在他們看來,計算器會嚴(yán)重影響學(xué)生的思維方式,因為他們不需要努力就能得到結(jié)果)可知使用計算器的不好之處是"減弱學(xué)生數(shù)學(xué)的(計算)能力",故本題答案為A選項.
64題答案:D考查細(xì)節(jié)推理,根據(jù)文章最后一段的They have to use a calculator.It makes their homework easier.他們不得不使用計算器,這是他們的作業(yè)變得簡單.可知本題答案為D選項.
65題答案:D考查細(xì)節(jié)推理,根據(jù)最后一段的最后一句as we enjoy the use of calculators,let's be careful so that it does not have any bad effects on us.因為我們喜歡使用計算器,我們就要謹(jǐn)慎這樣的話它就不會對我們有任何的不利影響.可知本題答案為D選項"使用計算器是要明智".
66題答案:B考查主旨大意,本文主要講的是針對學(xué)校使用計算器做的一個調(diào)查--有人支持,給出了支持的理由;有人反對,給出了反對的理由.故文章最好的標(biāo)題是"計算器帶來了什么?"
點評 本文是一篇科教類閱讀,題目涉及多道細(xì)節(jié)理解題,做題時結(jié)合原文和題目有針對 性找出相關(guān)語句進行仔細(xì)分析,結(jié)合選項選出正確答案.推理判斷也是要在抓住關(guān)鍵句子的基礎(chǔ)上合理的分析才能得出正確的答案.
