Question

【題目】Does technology influence the purity of Chinese language? Yes!

Many Chinese use messenger tools such as MSN or QQ, listen to music on MP3 players and blog on the Internet using ADSL ,but most people don’t know the Chinese meanings of the abbreviations, as many English letters have become part of the local lexicon（專門詞匯）. Some parents are so crazy about English letters that a couple tried to name their baby "@", they say the character used in email addresses reflects their love for the child.

While the "@" is obviously familiar to Chinese e-mail users, they often use the English word "at" to pronounce it , which sounds like ai ta, or "love him", to Putonghua speakers.

“Nowadays, more and more English abbreviations are being used in Chinese, making them an important part of the modern language," said Hou Min, a professor at Communication University of China. "The abbreviations are very popular because they can be used easily," Hou said. "As more Chinese people learn foreign languages, especially English, in recent years, using abbreviations has become a trend（趨勢(shì)）among some educated people," she said.

Some language scholars fear such usage will influence the purity of Chinese and cause confusion（混亂） in communication.

【1】D 判斷推理題。根據(jù)文章描述they often use the English word "at" to pronounce it , which sounds like ai ta, or "love him", to Putonghua speakers.他們經(jīng)常用英語(yǔ)“at”來(lái)發(fā)音，挺起來(lái)就像普通話中的 “愛他”，故判斷D錯(cuò)誤。

【2】A細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文章第一段 they say the character used in email addresses reflects their love for the child.他們說(shuō)這個(gè)在郵件地址中出現(xiàn)的字符表達(dá)了他們對(duì)孩子的愛；故選A。
