    Two thirds of the single people looking for love in Britain turned to the Internet last year, according to
    figures made in public yesterday. Special sites offer introductions to people such as smokers, Roman
    Catholics, tall people, beautiful people, frequent flyers and vegetarians. Technology has brought about a
    great change in the dating (约会) games.
    A survey by Parsnip, a Britain branch of Europe's largest dating service with more than 1.5 million
    members, says that 65 percent of the 5.4 million Britons looking for a relationship used online dating
    services last year.
    A spokeswoman for Relate, the relationship advisor, confirmed that a figure of two thirds feel it all
    right. "Doing it online allows people quite a lot of privacy, (隐私) because they can do a bit of quiet
    research and look around from the comfort of their own home. You don't have to meet a matchmaker
    (媒人) or go to an actual dating agency office, which takes a lot of courage." She said.
    There are more than 100 independent online dating agencies in Britain. Parsnip says that 50 percent
    of single people believe they will meet a suitable partner through the Internet, from 35 percent six months
    ago.
    Mary Balfour, the founder, says that the Internet has changed the dating industry completely. "It's like
    a return to old-fashioned love letters," she said." You don't base your first judgment on how someone
    looks or what his or her figure is like. You e-mail or talk before you actually see each other. Everybody
    you know who is single these days has at least had a good look at a dating site, introduction agency or
    personal ads. They have to, because all the old matchmaking institutions have gone. People work harder,
    settle down later and live more isolated lives. They are much more likely to end the day with DVD and a
    glass of beer than by going to a meeting place.
    1. What does the passage mainly talk about?
    A. British singles go online for love.
    B. British singles like going online.
    C. Going online for love is dangerous.
    D. New ways of dating in Britain.

    A. don't have to do any research at all
    B. needn't go to a matchmaker
    C. need to actually meet each other
    D. have to go to a gathering place
    3. According to the text, about ______ Britons dated Online last year.
    A. 3.5 million
    B. 1.5million
    C. 2.7million
    D. 1.9million

    A. old-fashioned love letters become popular again.
    B. online dating services are out of date
    C. half singles believe they can meet a suitable partner online

  • 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。
