    American life before 1950 felt nothing like American life feels now, and a big reason is those three
    changes that took place in the second half of the 20th century, which has had the most lasting impact
    on our lives today.
    1. The building of the interstates (州际公路).
    2. The covering of the United States with coast-to-coast television.
    3. The introduction and spread of the Internet.
    Before the interstates were constructed, even a trip within an individual state often took considerable
    planning; two-lane roads, dangerous and slow, were common. The interstates tore down the invisible
    walls around U. S. towns. President Eisenhower was in favor of building the interstates, because he
    believed that, in a time of war, they would be helpful in moving troops and supplies. But their immediate
    effect was to make Americans feel that certain doors had been unlocked. With the interstates came a sense
    of freedom: A person could drive anywhere- everywhere-easily. Suddenly, horizons were unlimited. "Local"
    didn't mean quite the same thing it used to. Getting away was effortless.
    The introduction of national television meant that for the first time in history, people in every corner of
    the country were watching exactly the same thing at exactly the same moment. It connected the country,
    in a way that even network radio hadn't accomplished, and it was because of the quality of the TV pictures.
    As with the interstates, coast-to-coast television was a cure to separation. Those who ran the newly formed
    television networks had an enormous amount of power. Their decisions about what to put on the air determined
    what people would be talking about the next day. They controlled what people would laugh at and when, what
    people would cry over and when, what would anger people and when it would anger them.
    And then, later in the century, the Internet came along, erasing all symbolic borders. If the interstate
    highways had allowed physical freedom, the Internet allowed a different kind of freedom, one unprecedented
    (空前的) in human experience. It was no coincidence that it was initially referred to as the information
    superhighway: Seemingly overnight, the knowledge of the world was available to anyone with a keyboard and
    a modem; people who had never met and would never meet could communicate as if they were lifelong friends.
    Now the individual at his or her computer terminal was given the power to decide how he or she would be
    informed or entertained at a given moment. No one else had the absolute authority to arrange the individual's
    life; he or she made that decision, moment by moment. What in the past might have taken a person a lifetime-
    searching for mankind's recorded wisdom in distant and magnificent libraries- now, in theory, was available
    with a series of key taps from one's room. What had once seemed unbelievable had, very quickly, become
    routine.
    The three developments ended up changing our daily world greatly; largely because of them, it is a world
    that would be almost unrecognizable to our grandparents and great-grandparents.

等考点的理解。关于这些考点您可以点击下面的选项卡查看详细档案。
  • 日常生活类阅读

日常生活类阅读的概念:

日常生活这一话题主要涉及人们衣食住行等方面的活动。这一话题的选材主要针对人们日常的工作,生活以及学习情况。做这一类题时,最主要的是要把握好人物的活动内容,时间和地点。


日常生活类阅读题答题技巧:

【题型说明】
该类文章内容涉及到人们的言谈举止、生活习惯、饮食起居、服饰仪表、恋爱婚姻、消遣娱乐、节日起源、家庭生活等。文章篇幅短小,追根溯源,探索各项风俗的历史渊源,内容有趣。命题也以送分题为主,如事实细节题、语义转换题、词义猜测题和简单推理判断题等。虽然这类文章读起来感觉轻松,试题做起来比较顺手,但绝不能掉以轻心。因为稍不留神,就会丢分。   
【备考提醒】
为了保证较高准确率,建议同学们做好以下几点:   
1、保持正常的考试心态。笔者在教学中发现,越是容易的试题,同学们越是容易失分。为什么呢?因为在这种情况下,同学们极易产生麻痹思想,认为题目好做,就不引起高度重视,于是思维不发散、不周密。而命题人就是利用同学们的这一弱点,设计陷阱题。所以,无论试题难易与否,我们都要保持正常的考试心态。试题容易,不欣喜;试题难,不悲观。   
2、根据前面讲到的方法,认认真真、细细心心做好事实细节题。   
3、做好语义转换题。这类题是根据英语中一词多义和某些词语在文中能表达一定的修辞意义的原则而设计的。要求同学们解释某生词的含义,确定多义词或短语在文中的意思,确认文中的某个代词所指代的对象,或者对英语中特有的表达、格言、谚语进行解释。这种题要求同学们一定要根据上下文猜测词义或理解句子,切不可望文生义。   
4、做好简单推理判断题。简单推理判断题要以表面文字为前提,以具体事实为依据进行推理,做出判断。这种推理方式比较直接,只要弄清事实,即可结合常识推断出合理的结论。
