Question

It was raining. I went into a café and asked for a coffee.     36    I was waiting for my drink, I realized that there were other people in the place, but I sensed     37    . I saw their bodies, but I couldn't feel their souls     38    their souls belonged to the        39    .

I stood up and walked between the tables. When I came to the biggest computer, I saw a thin, small man     40    in front of it. "I'm Steve", he finally answered after I asked him a couple of times what his name was. "I can't talk with you. I'm     41    ", he said. He was chatting online with somebody--probably someone he didn't know--and, at the same time, he was playing a computer game--a war game. I was surprised. He was chatting online and,     42    , he was playing a computer game—a war game. I was     43    .

Why didn't Steve want to talk with me? I tried     44     to speak to that computer geek (怪人),     45    not a word came out of his mouth. I touched his shoulder, but no reaction（反應(yīng)）. I was     46    . I put my hand in front of the monitor, and he started to shout, "    47    !"

I took a few steps back, wondering if all those people in the café were looking at me. I     ___48    , and saw nobody showed any interest.

    49    , I realized that the people there were having a nice conversation with their machines, not with people. They were more     50    having a relationship with the     ___51    , particularly Steve. I wouldn't want to     52     the future of human beings if they preferred sharing their lives with machines     53    with people.

I was worried and I sank in my thoughts. I didn't even     54    that the coffee was bad,   55   Steve didn't notice there was a person next to him.

【解析】從“我”遇見(jiàn)的一件事情說(shuō)明現(xiàn)實(shí)社會(huì)中很多年輕人沉迷于網(wǎng)絡(luò)，讓“我”思考未來(lái)的世界會(huì)是什么樣的。

1.while表示“當(dāng)…的時(shí)候；在…期間”，后接進(jìn)行時(shí)態(tài)。

2.根據(jù)上下文可知，作者身處人人沉迷于網(wǎng)絡(luò)的網(wǎng)吧里所體會(huì)到的孤獨(dú)感。

3.上下文有因果關(guān)系。

4.由上下文可知，作者之所以感到孤獨(dú)，是因?yàn)槠渌�人的靈魂都屬于網(wǎng)絡(luò)。

5.從下文可知，Steve是坐在電腦前面，而不是睡在電腦前。

6.從作者叫他很多聲才答應(yīng)可知他正忙于上網(wǎng)，無(wú)暇顧及其它。

7.“busy”是因?yàn)樗�邊在線聊天，“同時(shí)”還打電腦游戲。

8.用排除法可知作者當(dāng)時(shí)十分的驚訝，而不是害怕。

9.作者試圖再次與Steve交談，again或once again/more再一次；once一次；曾經(jīng)。

10.but表示轉(zhuǎn)折。“但是”他任不理會(huì)作者。

11.用unhappy表達(dá)作者被冷落的不滿情緒。

12.當(dāng)“我”用手遮住電腦屏幕的時(shí)候，Steve受不了了，大叫“讓我一個(gè)人呆著/離我遠(yuǎn)點(diǎn)”。

13.“我”“抬起頭”看到，與下文連貫。

14.at that moment表示“這時(shí)，我意識(shí)到了…”

15.表示“對(duì)電腦比對(duì)人更感興趣”，本題容易誤選C項(xiàng)，be careful about小心，當(dāng)心；而care about關(guān)心，在乎。

16.由上題可知。

17.我不愿意去想象那會(huì)是一個(gè)怎么樣的世界“如果人們更喜歡與機(jī)器交往，而不是和人”

18.由上題可知。

19.我陷入沉思中，甚至沒(méi)有意識(shí)到咖啡味道很差，就如同Steve沒(méi)有注意到有個(gè)人在他旁邊一樣。

20.由上題可知。
