问题    A new poll shows that people believe that computers and the Internet have made life better for Americans, but people also see some dangers in the trend toward computerization.
   The poll found that the public favors some government protection from cyber-problems, but in general people are not especially concerned about issues such as information overload or the never-ending flow of phone calls, faxes and e-mails. A separate survey of children aged 10 to 17 shows that they have a more positive attitude to computers than adults do, and most have made use of up-to-date technology in their schools.
   The survey found that enthusiasm for computers and the Internet is found in all income groups, all regions of the country, all races, and most age groups. However, people over 60 and those towards the lower end of the income rank tend to show lower rates of computer ownership and Internet usage. The survey shows that "some kind of gap has been crossed: computers are part of everyday life for most Americans, and the Internet is close behind".
We can learn from the passage that______.
选项 A、all the American children have used the latest technology in schools
B、computers and the Internet are very popular with Americans
C、Americans tend to place more importance on the Internet usage than computers
D、the public in America does not hate the Internet problems at all
答案B
解析 根据第一段和最后一段第一句可知，电脑和因特网改善了美国人的生 活，人们热爱电脑和因特网。由此可推知，电脑和因特网很受美国人的欢迎，所以B 项正确。根据第二段最后一句“…most have made use of up-to-date technology in their schools．”可知，并非美国所有的孩子都在学校使用了最新的科技，所以A项不正确； 根据最后一段最后一句“…computers are part of everyday life for most Americans，and the Internet is close behind．”可推知，对美国人来说，电脑的重要性是第一位，然后是因 特网，所以C项不正确；根据第二段第一句“…but in general people are not especially concerned about issues such as information overload or the never-ending flow of phone calls， faxes and e-mails．”可知，公众不是特别关心信息超载，源源不断的电话、传真、电子邮件 等问题，但并未提及他们一点也不讨厌网络问题，所以D项说法不正确。故选B。
