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 towards computerization.
   The poll finds 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 emails. 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 finds 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".
What are the Americans concerned about according to the poll?

选项 A、Age of the children using the Internet.
B、Government protection from the Internet problems.
C、Information overload.
D、The flow of phone calls, faxes and emails.

答案B

解析 根据第二段第一句“The poll finds that the public favors some government protection from cyber problems…”可知,(美国)公众希望政府能够保护他们免受网络问题的干扰,而不太关心诸如信息膨胀或源源不断的电话、传真和电子邮件等问题,所以B项正确,C、D两项错误;文章并未提及A项。故选B。
