A segment of them are considered to be both educati

28、onal and harmlessly entertaining. One such game teaches geography, and another trains pilots. Others train the player in the logical thinking and problem solving. Some games may also help young people to become more computer literate, which is more important in this technology-driven era.But the dar

29、k side of the computer games has become more and more obvious. “A segment of games features anti-social themes of violence, sex and crude language,“ says David Walsh, president of the National Institute on Media and Family. “Unfortunately, its a segment that seems particularly popular with kids aged

30、 eight to fifteen.“One study showed that almost 80 percent of the computer and online games young people preferred contained violence. The investigators said “These are not just games anymore. These are learning machines. Were teaching kids in the most incredible manner what its like to pull the tri

31、gger. What they are not learning are the real-life consequences.“They also said “The new and more sophisticated games are even worse, because they have better graphics and allow the player to participate in even more realistic violent acts.“ In the game Carmageddon, for example, the player will have

32、 driven over and killed up to 33,000 people by the time all levels are completed. A description of the outcome of the game says: “Your victims not only squish under your tires and splatter blood on the windshield, they also get on their knee and beg for mercy, or commit suicide. If you like, you can

33、 also Udismember/U them.“Is all this simulated violence harmful? Approximately 3,000 different studies have been conducted on this subject. Many have suggested that there is a connection between violence in games and increased aggressiveness in the players.Some specialists downplay the influence of

34、the games, saying that other factors must be taken into consideration, such as the possibility that kids who already have violent tendencies are choosing such games. But could it be that violent games still play a contributing role? It seems unrealistic to insist that people are not influenced by wh

35、at they see. If that were true, why would the commercial world spend billions of dollars annually for television advertising?（分数：6.00）(1).Which of the following computer games is NOT mentioned as educational and harmlessly entertaining? A. Those that help people learn more about computers. B. Those

36、that teach the features of the earth. C. Those that provide special training for writers online. D.

B. teach the players to

37、 be antisocial. C. make the players forget the real life results. D. that young people liked contain violence（分数：1.00）A.B.C.D.(3).What does the underlined word “dismember“ in Paragraph 4 mean? A.

38、ebody（分数：1.00）A.B.C.D.(4).Many studies have suggested that _. A. more and more young people enjoy cruel computer games. B. violence in computer games makes their players more aggressive. C. there are now far more incidents of violence due to computer games. D. simulated violence in computer games is

39、 different from real violence.（分数：1.00）A.B.C.D.(5).The author uses “ television advertising“ as an example to show that _. A. other factors must be considered as possible causes of violence in real life. B. computer and online games are not the only cause of increased violence in real life. C. the c

40、ommercial world is contributing to the increased violence in real life. D. there is a close link between computer games and increased violence in real life.（分数：1.00）A.B.C.D.(6).The best title for the passage is _. A. The Dark Side of Computer Games. B. Computer GamesAdvantages and Disadvantages C. T

41、he Development of Violent Computer Games. D. A Study on the Influence of Computer Games（分数：1.00）A.B.C.D.十三、Passage Two(总题数：1，分数：6.00)The collapse of the Earths magnetic field-which guards the planet and guides many of its creatures-appears to have started seriously about 150 years ago, the New York

42、Times reported last week.The fields strength has decreased by 10 or 15 percent so far and this has increased the debate over whether it signals a reversal of the planets lines of magnetic force.During a reversal, the main field weakens, almost vanishes, and reappears with opposite polarity. The tran

43、sition would take thousands of years. Once completed, compass needles that had pointed north would point south. A reversal could cause problems for both man and animals. Astronauts and satellites would have difficulties. Birds, fish and animals that rely on the magnetic field for navigation would fi

44、nd migration confusing. But experts said the effects would not be a big disaster; despite claims of doom and vague evidence of links between past field reversals and species extinctions.Although a total transition may be hundreds or thousands of years away, the rapid decline in magnetic strength is

45、already affecting satellites. Last month, the European Space Agency approved the worlds largest effort at tracking the fields shifts. A group of new satellites, called Swarm, is to monitor the collapsing field with far greater precision. “We want to get some idea of how this would evolve in the near

46、 future, just like people trying to predict the weather,“ said Gauthier Hulot, a French geophysicist working on the satellite plan. “Im personally quite convinced we should be able to work out the first predictions by the end of the mission.“No matter what the new findings, the public has no reason

47、to panic. Even if a transition is coming on its way, it might take 2,000 years to mature. The last one took place 780,000 years ago, when early humans were learning how to make stone tools. Deep inside the Earth flow hot currents of melted iron. This mechanical energy creates electromagnetism. The process is known as the geophysical generator. In a cars generator, the same principle turns
