来源:广州家教中心 日期:2018/8/23
第五部分:任务型阅读(共10小题,满分10分)
认真阅读下面短文,并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入最恰当的单词。注意:每空只填一词。
Telephone, television, radio, telegraph and the Internet all help people communicate with each other. As a result, ideas and news of events spread quickly all over the world. For example, within seconds, people can know the results of an election in another country. An international football match comes into the homes of everyone with a television set. News of a disaster such as an earthquake or a flood can bring help from distant countries within hours. Help is on the way. Because of modern technology like the satellites that travel around the world, information travels fast. 
How has this speed of communication changed the world? To many people, the world has become smaller. Of course this does not mean that the world is actually physically smaller. It means that the world seems smaller. Two hundred years ago, communication between the continents took a long time. All news was carried on ships that took weeks or even months to cross the ocean. In the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, it took six weeks for news from Europe to reach America. This time difference influenced people’s actions. For example, one battle, or fight, in the War of 1812 between England and the United States could have been avoided. A peace agreement had already been signed. Peace was made in England, but the news of peace took six weeks to reach America. During these six weeks, the large and serious Battle of New Orleans was fought. Many people lost their lives after a peace treaty had been signed. In the past, communication took much more time than it does now.
There was a good reason why the world seemed so much larger than it does today.

Dear Editor,
    The students of Class 3 held a discussion about whether students should live in the dormitory or not last Wednesday afternoon. Different students have different opinions.
Some students hold the view that students should live in the dormitory while studying at school. The reasons are as follows. First, living in the dormitory can help to develop our ability to do on our own. Second, we can learn how to get along with others while living together in the dormitory. At the same time true friendship can be cultivated. Third, time can be used to the full and a good habit of study and life can be formed, benefiting our future development.
However, others think students should not live in the dormitory while studying at school. First, the time we can use freely is very little, which is not beneficial to our personality. Second, time is not enough when the study burden is heavy. Finally, if we go home , we can get concern from parents and communicate with parents.
As for myself, I think students should live in the dormitory while studying at school. Besides the reasons mentioned above, when we meet with difficulties, we should come over them ourselves.
Besides, by living in the dormitory, we can learn how to live independently.
