问题     At one time, I was convinced that real learning would be at hand if every child hada computer. I was convinced that computers would revolutionize education and hold immense possibilities for learning.
    That possibility has not become a reality yet.Based on recent test results, far too many Californian children have not mastered the basic reading, math, and writing skills necessary to function at a minimal level in our society.And far too many children do not have the commitment to concentrate on learning to get a good education.These kids need good teachers,not fast computers.
    No one will argue that computers have educational uses.Unfortunately, in far too many instances,the classroom computer has replaced the television set as a game tool to occupy children.One wonders what is the use of an Internet fed to the classroom if the child does not read.
    There are those who believe that bringing a computer to the classroom will supplement what teachers teach.That is difficult to comprehend since teachers are always telling us how many subjects and how little time they have to teach.When a child is occupied with a computer for any length of time,that child does not get the attention of teachers and the required learning that should occupy their class time.
    Educators are now looking into requiring teachers and students to become computer proficient.And districts that do not have enough dollars for textbooks are spending their meager funds to buy computers and software, all in the name of technology and computer competency.
    One would think that educators would come to the realization that computers are tools not much different from libraries,calculators, movie or slide projectors.Kids must still learn and be inspired to study basic skills, think, write, communicate, solve problems, and be good citizens.
    And while it is good for students to make use of computers, we must not get carried away with faster and more powerful computers at the expense of basic skills, effective teaching and powerful learning.
In the writer’ s opinion.which of the following statements is NOT true?

选项 A、Computers have educational uses.
B、Computers offer games that occupy children’ s learning time
C、Computers shouldn’ t take the place of teaching in the classroom.
D、Computers help children focus their attention on study.

答案D

解析 细节题。由第四段最后一句“When a child is occupied with a computer for any length of time, that child does not get the attention of teachers and the required learning that should occupy their class time.”可知,如果孩子把 注意力集中在计算机上,他就无法关注老师,也不能集中注意力完成课堂 上应完成的学习任务,因此应选择[D]选项。其他选项与作者的观点相同。 由第三段第一句“No one will argue that computers have educational uses.” 可知,[A]  选项与作者观点一致;由第三段第二句“Unfortunately, in far too many instances,the classroom computer has replaced the television set as a game tool to occupy children.”表明不应选择[C]  选项。
