Answer 1

答案：1．C;2．D;3．A;4．B;
解析：

(1)	寫作意圖推測題。根據(jù)The Screenfridge is due to hit the market sometime in early 2003可知，這是一個電腦新產(chǎn)品的介紹。
(2)	細節(jié)題。根據(jù)call up email, news reports, sales items at the supermarket…the machine should attract people who have limited time to solve technical problems or surf online等關(guān)鍵詞句，可知這種產(chǎn)品使電腦的使用更加方便快捷。
(3)	推斷題。根據(jù)Rikke and her husband are taking part in a six-month trial…But when the thing is gone after the test, it will be a pain to have to go down in the basement again to download my e-mail可知，這種產(chǎn)品正在試用之中，而試用期為六個月，故A項最佳。
(4)	推斷題。“But when the thing is gone after the test, it will be a pain to have to go down in the basement again to download my e-mail．”這句話的意思是說：當(dāng)試用期過了以后，我們又不得不重新回到地下室去下載電子郵件。故可以推斷，Rikke認為這種電腦新產(chǎn)品Screenfridge給她帶來了很大的方便，希望能繼續(xù)使用這種新產(chǎn)品。
