Passage 1
Questions 21 to 25are based on the following passage.
The rise of the Internet has been one of the most transformative developments in human history,comparable in impact to the invention of the printing press and the telegraph.Over two billion people worldwide now have access to vastly more information than ever before,and can communicate with each other instantly,often using Web-connected mobile devices they carry everywhere.But the Internet's tremendous impact has only just begun.
"Mass adoption of the Internet is driving one of the most exciting social,cultural,and political transformations in history,and unlike earlier periods of change,this time the effects are fully global,"
Schmidt and Cohen write in their new book,The New Digital Age.
Perhaps the most profound changes will come when the five billion people worldwide who currently lack Internet access get online.The authors do an excellent job of examining the implications of the Internet revolution for individuals,governments,and institutions like the news media.But ff the book has one major shortcoming,it's that the authors don't spend enough time applying a critical eye to the role of Internet businesses in these sweeping changes.
In their book,the authors provide the most authoritative volume to date that describes--and more importantly predicts--how the Internet will shape our lives in the coming decades.They paint a picture of a world in which individuals,companies,institutions,and governments must deal with two realities,one physical,and one virtual.
At the core of the book is the idea that"technology is neutral,but people aren't."By using this concept as a starting point,the authors aim to move beyond the now familiar optimist vs.pessimist dichotomy(对立观点)that has characterized many recent debates about whether the rise of the Internet will ultimately be good or bad for society.In an interview with TIME earlier this week,Cohen said although he and his co-author are optimistic about many aspects of the Internet,they're also realistic about the risks and dangers that lie ahead when the next five billion people come online,particularly with respect to personal privacy and state surveillance(监视).

1. A【解析】本题问网络的兴起与印刷机和电报的发明在哪些方面类似。题干复现了全文首句中的多个关键词,题干中的similar to对应原文中的comparable…to…,该部分说明网络的影响力可媲美电报与印刷机的发明,而网络的兴起是人类历史上最具变革力的发展之一(one of the most trans formative developments in human history)。由此可分析出,网络兴起和电报与印刷机的发明的共同点是:它们都具有变革力、是革命性的、影响历史发展的。A项出现了原文trans formative“具变革性的”的同根词transform,意为“改变了人类历史”,符合原文信息。
2. B【解析】题目问Schmidt和Cohen如何描述网络的影响。第2段整段是关于Schmidt和Cohen对网络影响力的描述。段末提到这次网络造成的影响完全是遍及全球的(the effects are fully global),B“(影响)是全球的”与此相符,其中worldwide与原文的global意思一致,故答案为B。
3. C【解析】题目问《新数码时代》一书有什么不足之处。第3段最后一句提到该书的一个大缺点(one major shortcoming)是没有深刻地批判网络交易的作用(don’t…applying a critical eye to the role of Internet business)。critical“批判的”,指判断事物要全面客观,C中的objective与之意思相近,选项意为“它缺乏对网络交易的客观评价”,符合原文。
4. A【解析】题目问如果每个人都上网,那么未来将会怎样。第4段第l句主题句提及Schmidt和Cohen在书中预测了网络对未来生活的影响。最后一句具体描述人们的网络生活。说个体、企业、机构以及政府必须应对两个现实(two realities),一个是实体世界(one physical),一个是虚拟世界(one virtual)。A“人们将生活在两个不同的现实中”概括了最后一句的内容。
5. D【解析】题目问本文对《新数码时代》的作者有什么看法。全文最后一句,Cohen代表《新数码时代》的两位作者提出了对未来网络发展的看法,首先提到两位作者对网络的很多方面持乐观态度(optimistic about many aspects of the Internet),之后指出他们同时也意识到网络的风险和危险(realistic about the risks and dangers),对网络的利弊都谈到,是比较客观的看法。故D“在分析网络的影响时,他们没有偏颇”正确。
