Question

One of India's top engineering schools has restricted Internet access in its boarding houses, saying addiction to surfing, gaming and blogging was affecting students' performance, making them lonely and even suicidal.

Authorities at the best Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) in Mumbai said students had stopped socializing and many were late for morning classes or slept through them. "Now, a student doesn't even know who lives two doors away from him because he is so busy on the Internet," said Prakash Gopalan, dean of student affairs. "The old dormitory culture of companionship and socializing among students is gone. This is not healthy in our opinion."

IIT-Mumbai, with about 5,000 students, is one of seven IITs across India which are considered to be among the finest engineering schools in the world. They are also a talent pool for global technology giants. But their hard courses, tough competition and lonely campus lifestyle have taken an effect on students. Depressive and dysfunctional (不正常的) lifestyles are known to be common among IIT students, and at least nine have committed suicide in the past five years. Students have unlimited free Internet access in their boarding houses to help them in their studies, but many also use it to surf, chat, download movies and music, blog and for gaming.

Starting Monday, Internet access will be banned between 11 p.m. and 12.30 p.m. at IIT-Mumbai's 13 boarding buildings to encourage students to sleep early and to try and force them out of their "shells," Gopalan said. But the move has not gone down well with students who say they hate their lives being regulated. "Now they will say we need to listen to a lullaby (搖籃曲) to go to sleep," said Rajiv, an electronics student.

Which of the following is not the possible effect of free Internet access on students?

A. There has been a decline in students’ lessons.

B. Participation in social activities has gone down.

C. Some students feel lonely and even suicidal.

D. Students don’t even know his classmates.

A. Students have unlimited free Internet access in their dormitories.

B. Students are forbidden to surf the Internet.

C. Internet access is unavailable in deep night.

D. Students must go to bed before 11 p.m.

In the passage the students are told to _____.

A. sleep through their lessons                    B. break away from the Internet

C. go to sleep along with music          D. stop surfing, make friends

We may infer from the last paragraph that _____.

A. the banning order causes some complaints among the students

B. all electronics students hate the banning order

C. more students prefer listening to music to surfing the Internet

D. there is no Internet access on the IIT campus even since.

Answer 1

【小題1】D

【小題2】C

【小題3】D

【小題4】A

解析:

這是一篇新聞類短文。本文報道的是：由于網(wǎng)絡(luò)對學(xué)生的生活和學(xué)習(xí)產(chǎn)生了巨大的影響，印度工學(xué)院限制學(xué)生上網(wǎng)，鼓勵學(xué)生走出宿舍，積極參加社會活動。

【小題1】考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。根據(jù)第一段和第二段內(nèi)容“學(xué)生整日沉迷于上網(wǎng)、玩電腦游戲和寫博客，影響了他們的學(xué)習(xí)成績，并助長了他們內(nèi)心的孤獨感和自殺傾向。學(xué)生們不愿參加社交活動，很多人要么早上上課遲到，要么干脆在課堂上睡覺。”可知A、B、C三項都是上網(wǎng)對學(xué)生們產(chǎn)生的影響。D項與短文中“有的學(xué)生忙于上網(wǎng)，甚至不知道住在隔壁的同學(xué)是誰”不符。

【小題2】考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。根據(jù)短文第后一段內(nèi)容“從周一開始，學(xué)校在校內(nèi)的13個宿舍實施限制上網(wǎng)措施，每晚11點至12：30這一時段網(wǎng)絡(luò)將被關(guān)閉，以此來鼓勵學(xué)生早睡、并試圖用這種辦法促使他們走出宿舍�！笨芍狢項正確。

【小題3】考查主旨大意。全文指出了網(wǎng)絡(luò)對校內(nèi)學(xué)生的影響，先前的“互助友愛的宿舍文化”已經(jīng)一去不復(fù)返了。學(xué)校校內(nèi)宿舍實施限制上網(wǎng)措施，來鼓勵學(xué)生積極參加文體和社會活動、多與別人交往，消除內(nèi)心的孤獨感。

【小題4】推測題。短文最后一段提到：這一舉措實施的并不順利，學(xué)生們說他們不喜歡自己的生活受管制。其中電子系的學(xué)生拉吉維說：“現(xiàn)在我們得聽著搖籃曲入睡了�！庇纱送茰y學(xué)生中有抱怨情緒。
