Ⅲ.
1. as the author sees it, the internet is most likely to make our global village a better place to live
in. it provides a miraculous forum for the globalization of ideas, which contributes to the
realization of human potential. furthermore, it is a powerful
tool for the acquisition and
application of knowledge. the benefits of the internet, however, may be darkened by its negative
consequences. it may deprive its user of his time for necessary interaction with other society
members so that the whole world may be further fragmented. in addition, there is a reasonable
likelihood that the internet presents too much information, which gives its user a skewed sense of
reality by making him a cognitively overloaded man.
2. his friend was addicted to the internet. he would spend even over twenty-four hours non-stop
on the internet so that he had to force himself to go off line. as he spent so much time in
cyberspace, his sense of reality might have been crooked. moreover, without any face-.to-face
verbal communication with other people, he felt lonely and depressed.
3. the alienation of society members had begun long before
the internet started to be used
worldwide. after world war 1i when the soldiers returned from the battlefields, they devoted
themselves to progress. what did to achieve their goal was to manufacturelarge quantities of cars and make them available
to most people. with the car people could travel
around more easily, but at the expense of their reunion with their extended families and
communications with their neighbors. thus, it is apparent that it was the car ownership that
alienated people before the internet. in the information age, however, people are alienated not so
much by cars as by the interact. interact addicts are far from rare. as illustrated by the example of
the authors nephew, it seems to be an irreversible trend that more and more people, old and young,
are becoming addicted to the internet. they will spend many hours non-stop in cyberspace rather
than with their families or friends. for lack of communications, they are becoming strangers to
other people. therefore, there is a good reason to believe that the society is being further alienated
by the internet.
4. the cruel irony means that the internet provides the user with a convenient means of
communicating and making friends with people far apart on the one hand, but on the other, it
estranges the user from the people around him by canceling his availability for the face-to-face
communications even with his families and close friends and for involvement in the community
activities.
5. the potential of the internet as a powerful tool for globalizing ideas and for acquiring and
applying knowledge can only be realized when its user strikes a balance between the reality and
the internet. although the internet makes it possible for its users to debate, shop, travel and have
romance in cyberspace without leaving home, the overuse of this tool probably results in a
distorted sense of reality. the only way to avoid being penalized by the interact is make moderate
use of this tool without losing ones sense of place in the world.Ⅳ.
1. as the internet can be reached and used with relatively few restrictions, it plays a role in connecting people globally,
which is comparable to traveling through international waterways.
2. a lot of people talk about the new information age, but not so many people are acquainted with the idea that the internet separates people from each other and fragments society further as a result.
3. i think that in our society the top priority is given to the satisfaction of ones immediate needs. the internet is the best means to achieve this purpose, for on the internet one can do whatever he likes to.

我上大学的最初几天是难以忘怀的。当父亲驾车离开，将我独自留在校园里的时候，我不知道该做什么了。不管我如何极力拿出一副成熟的样子，我就是摆脱不了一个一年级新生的感觉。我花了好几个小时，搞清了我的寝室和我要上课的各个教室。第二天早上，我坐在教室的前排，打开《美国文学选集》，用一种热情的态度准备上课。但是，当老师说“欢迎来听生物课”时，我意识到自己坐错了教室。我用铁一样的意志，摆出了一副生物专业学生的姿态，一直坚持到讲座结束。下课以后，我感到我的胃需要加一点营养了，于是我匆匆赶往自助餐厅。但不幸的是，当我端着食物托盘朝一张桌子走去时，脚一滑，托盘翻倒，我失去了平衡，直直地倒在地上。好几天，我一直被一种耻辱感所困扰。过后，我渐渐地意识到自己把这种微不足道的小事看得过重了。在大学里，重要的是做自然的“我”，发现真正的“我”，而不是试图把一切都做得尽善尽美。

诗歌像语言一样普遍，并且几乎和语言一样古老，在某些方面，读
诗很像读小说：我们注意细节和语言，搞清上下文的关系并作出推断，最后得出结论。然而，读诗又与平常的阅读有所不同。与小说
