B. The finding of a research on the Internet addicts
C. The Internet addiction may destroy a family
D. The establishment of a new service for web addicts
E. Two examples of harm of the Internet addiction
F. he Internet addiction may cause many problems

    It’s the equivalent of inviting sex addicts to a brothel or holding an Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) meeting at the pub. Internet addicts tired of their square-eyed, keyboard tapping ways need look no further than the Web for counseling.
    (41)______.
    There is now an online counseling service at www.Relate.org.nz for Internet obsessives. Just email the details of your Internet-induced crisis and help comes direct to your inbox. The new breed of cyber-therapists see nothing strange about offering help through the very medium that is swallowing their clients’ free time and splitting their marriages.
    (42)______.
    Though some may regard Internet addiction as another dubious ailment dreamed up to keep therapists in work, Relationship Services says the problem is real. Therapist Robin Paul says there tend to be two scenarios. Some people meet through chat rooms and fall in love. It’s like having an affair, then they meet and it’s like a whirlwind honeymoon. It’s devastating for the person left behind and quite often it has no real foundation. The second scenario is that a person starts spending more and more time on the Net. They may not meet someone else but they don’t spend any time with their partner and of course the relationship suffers.
    (43)______.
    Such stories may appear to be almost urban legends, so ashamed are Internet addicts and their partners. A recent survey of 17,251 Internet users found nearly 6 per cent had some sort of addiction to the medium. They revealed that their online habit contributed to disrupted marriages, childhood delinquency, crime and over-spending. Tap into online addiction sites and you’ll find messages such as: "Hello, my name is Bob and I’m a Webaholic."
    (44)______.
    Witness the plight of Ohio woman Kelli Michetti, who literally became a computer hacker because of her husband’s constant online chatting. When she crashed a meat cleaver through her husband’s computer terminal that solved the problem, although naturally it led to difficulties with the police. Or take the classic Internet addiction story of Ingrid Parker, a woman who became such a slave to the Internet—especially chat rooms—that it took over her life. She made do with two hours’ sleep a night, had marathon weekend computer sessions of up to 17 hours and fell in love with a married man in the US state of Oregon.
    (45)______.
    Dr. Kimberly Young, who set up The Centre for Online Addiction (www.netaddiction.com) in America, studied 396 people whom she considered were psychologically dependent on the Net. They ranged in age from 14 to 70 and spent an average of 38.5 hours a week on the Web. Her study, backed by further research in Britain, found that women were more likely to become addicts. So while the old stereotypical addict was a young man who spent hours playing games, downloading software or reading messages on newsgroups, the new image is of a young woman who fritters away hours e-mailing friends, buying books and CDs online, talking in chat rooms and looking for information for next year’s holiday.
    "I guess I was a typical example of someone hooked on the Internet," says Parker, who now spends just an hour a day online. "I don’t think anyone who is married or in a sound relationship should really be spending hours talking to someone else and ignoring their nearest and dearest." While Parker provided her own therapy by putting her experiences down on paper, she recommends others take up the online counseling offer, or log off from the Worldwide Web gradually.

选项
答案E
解析 浏览本段，很容易看出段中提到两个人：Kelli Michetti和Ingrid Parker。根据英文篇章结构可知，细节通常是支持某个观点的论据。仔细分析有关这两个人物的描述，就可以发现这里表述的是沉迷上网给人们婚姻带来的负面影响。由此可以归纳出，本段主旨是"沉迷因特网危害的两个例子"，这正是选项E内容。
