题文
Have you got a Facebook account? Are you thinking of getting one? Jamie Simmonds has just signed up. Let’s see how she’s getting along.My Diary
MONDAY: I’m officially a Facebooker. I find a few people I used to know and I’ve soon got seven friends. I’ve never felt so popular! I wonder if my old university flatmate Steve is on here…What do you know! He is! Maybe Facebook has its uses.
TUESDAY: I’ve received lots of nice welcoming messages on my wall. Later, I meet up with Steve for a drink after not seeing him for five years. We get on really well! Then, he uses his Facebook app for iPhone to suggest me as a friend to some other former classmates. Some of them even come to the pub and it’s just like old times – possibly a bit too much like old times. During the night, photos are uploaded to Facebook.
WEDNESDAY: Disaster! My mum’s on Facebook! Has she seen the photos of me dancing on the table from last night? Has she shown them to dad? Oh. And I have a friend request – mum again!
THURSDAY: There’s a message from my boyfriend, “so, it’s over then, ;is it?” Evidently I haven’t changed my settings to show I’m “in a relationship”, and I haven’t even added him as a friend. Ah, well, I wonder what my ex-boyfriend is doing… Whoops! I accidentally type his name into my status box instead of the search ‘ and now every one can see it on their news feed.’
FRIDAY: Time to update my status:“Work is boring. Can’t wait for the weekend!” Yeah, that about sums it up. Oh, look, I’ve received a comment! Someone must feel the same way. Lots of my friends now“like” this status.
SATURDAY: Good news! I’ve got 100 friends But wait! Someone’s “un-friended” me! I look through my “friend list” to try to work out who it was. Why did they do that? Am I really such a terrible person? I never knew Facebook could be this cruel.
SUNDAY: Wake up. Check my Facebook page. Make coffee. Check my Facebook page again. Get ready to leave. Change my mind and check my Facebook page … again. I am becoming addicted to it! I think it’s time to end it all before it takes over my life. I delete my account. Back to good, old, simple e-mails. Oh, look, I’ve got a message: A friend invited you to join Twitter. . .

答案
小题1:B

小题3:C
小题4:D
小题5:C
解析
小题1:B 细节题。根据THURSDAY Evidently I haven’t changed my settings to show I’m “in a relationship”, and I haven’t even added him as a friend.说明B正确。
小题2:A 推理题。根据文章最后一段The average Facebook user has 130 friends. Facebook is translated into more than 70 different languages. The world spends 700 billion minutes a month on Facebook说明人们在facebook中花费了很多的时间内和精力,故A正确。
小题3:C 推理题。根据本句Good news! I’ve got 100 friends But wait! Someone’s “un-friended” me!说明我有了100个好友,但是有人把我从他的好友中删除了,本题的关键词是but。故C正确。
小题4:D 推理题。根据TUESDAY:部分的I’ve received lots of nice welcoming messages on my wall. Later, I meet up with Steve for a drink after not seeing him for five years. We get on really well!说明她在刚刚使用的时候很兴奋很有激情,故D正确。
小题5:C 推理题。作者举Jamie Simmonds为例说明使用facebook的问题,在SUNDAY部分. I am becoming addicted to it! I think it’s time to end it all before it takes over my life. I delete my account. Back to good, old, simple e-mails.说明很多人都上瘾了,影响了正常的生活,故他对facebook持否定的态度。故C正确。
点评:文章介绍了facebook对人的影响,会让人在它身上花费了太多的时间和精力而影响了正常的生活。同样也是对推理题的考查较多, 解推断题最主要的方法是根据词义关系推断具体细节。
