Question

For those who are tired of doing the laundry, Samsung has found an answer: a washing machine that can tell you when your laundry is done via a smartphone app (application).
Strange though it may seem — "my wife already does that" was a common response among attendees viewing the device when it was introduced at the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) this week — Samsung is just one of many appliance makers racing to install a large number of internet-connected features in machines in an effort to make them "smart".
Last year, it was a refrigerator that tweeted. This year, it's Wi-Fi-enabled laundry machines and fridges that can tell you when your groceries are going bad.
The washers and dryers, available starting in the spring, connect to any smartphone through a downloadable application. The phone can then be used as a remote control, so the machines can be turned on and off while their owner is at work or on the bus.
Samsung says it's not just something new — the app connection actually has some practical uses.
"If you started to dry clothes in the morning and forgot to take them out, you can go to your phone and restart your dryer for the time when come home, so your clothes are refreshed and ready to go." said spokesperson Amy Schmidt.
The company also says that with electricity rate (電價) varying depending on the time of day, more control over when the machines are used can help save money.
Perhaps, but what they will probably really accomplish is what all good technologies do — enable laziness. Rather than getting up to check on whether the laundry is done, users will instead monitor it on their phones while watching TV.

Answer 1

【小題1】D
【小題2】A
【小題3】C

解析試題分析：主要向我們介紹了三星公司推出新產品目的是更便捷人們的生活，但同時也引人深思，好技術產生的同時也會帶來負面的影響——滋生懶惰。
【小題1】推理判斷題。根據第二段第一句中的“my wife already does that”可知人們對此已經很熟悉了， 故答案選D。
【小題2】推理判斷題。綜合全文可知，三星運用app connection于產品中是為了讓生活變得更容易， 故答案選A。
【小題3】段落大意題。文章最后一段主要講了好技術所能做的就是滋生懶惰，所以即便是好的技術也會帶來負面的問題，故答案選C。
考點：日常生活類短文閱讀。
點評：總結段落大意題確實存在著一些難度。通過很多段落的分析，我們發現做HEADING 題一個總的做題原則：精讀首句，一一對應原則，即首先劃好題目的關鍵詞，再從每段第一句進行閱讀，尋找題目關鍵詞和段落的一一對應原則。如果第一句能與題目對應就對應了，如果第一句不能與題目對應，則還須往后閱讀直到找到對應為止。但使用這個原則的同時還必須確保第一句是中心句。怎樣斷定第一句為中心句，我們可以對段落結構進行分析，來尋求中心句。
