Surfing the Internet for fun will make you a better employee, according to an Australian study.
The University of Melbourne study shows that people who use the Internet for their own reasons at work are about 9 percent more productive (有效率的) than those who do not. Study author Brent Coker said "Surfing the Internet at times helps increase an employee's attention."
"People need to relax for a bit to get back their attention," Coker said on the university's website." Having a short break, such as a quick surfing of the Internet, helps the mind to rest itself, leading to a higher total Internet attention for a day's work, and as a result, increase productivity (生产效率)," he said.
According to the study of 300 workers, 70 percent of people who use the Internet at work surf the Internet for their own reasons during office hours. Among the most popular surfing activities are searching for information about products, reading online news, playing online games and watching videos." Firms spend a lot of money on software to block their employees from watching video, using social networking sites or shopping online," said Coker. "That's not always a good idea."
However, Coker said the study looked at people who surfed the Internet in moderation (适度), or were on the Internet for less than 20 percent of their total time in the office. "Those who spend too much time surfing the Internet will have a lower productivity than those without." he said.
22．What does the University of Melbourne study mainly show
A．People who surf the Internet are good employees.
B．Not everyone surfs the Internet for fun during office hours.
C．Surfing the Internet for fun during office hours increases productivity.
D．The Internet is becoming more and more important in people's life.
23．According to paragraph 3, Brent Coker would most probably agree that ____.
A．the longer a person's mind rests the better attention he will have.
B．surfing the Internet is the best way to increase productivity.
C．workers should have a long break during office hours
D．workers should let their minds rest now and then.
24．The underlined word "block" in paragraph 4 means "____".
A．prevent B．cycle
C．burst (爆裂) D．breathe
25．What can we infer from the last paragraph？
A．People should spend as little time as possible surfing the Internet.
B．Those who never surf the Internet have the lowest productivity.
C．Most people don't surf the internet in moderation during office hours.
D．Spending too much time surfing the Internet reduces productivity.
【答案】22．C
23．D
24．A
25．D
【解析】【分析】本文是一篇议论文，论述了上网娱乐对于工作的影响，适当上网娱乐有助于提高工作效率，但是花太多时间上网会影响工作效率。
【点评】本题考点涉及细节理解，词义猜测和推理判断三个题型的考查，是一篇社会现象类阅读，通读全文，理解文章大意，阅读题目后返回原文阅读并找出与题目相对应的内容，仔细核对，选择符合原文原意的答案，完成后再次阅读并检查。
22．考查细节理解。根据第三段中的"Having a short break, such as a quick surfing of the Internet, helps the mind to rest itself, leading to a higher total Internet attention for a day's work, and as a result, increase productivity (生产效率)"短暂的休息，比如快速浏览网页，有助于大脑休息，提高一天工作的总体网络注意力，从而提高工作效率。可知，工作时间愉快地上网一小会儿有助于提高生产效率。故选C。
23．考查细节理解。根据第三段中的"People need to relax for a bit to get back their attention"人们需要放松一下，重新获得注意力。可知，Coker同意的是工人们应该让他们的思想时不时地放松一会儿。故选D。
24．考查词义猜测。根据第四段中的"‘Firms spend a lot of money on software to block their employees from watching video, using social networking sites or shopping online,' said Coker. ‘That's not always a good idea.'""公司在软件上花了很多钱，阻止员工观看视频、使用社交网站或在线购物，"Coker说。"这并不总是个好主意。"；以及常识，公司一般是不希望员工在上班时间做与工作无关的事情的，所以公司会花钱阻止员工观看视频，但是这不总是个好主意，所以划线词block表示"阻止"，故选A。
25．考查推理判断。根据最后一段中的"Those who spend too much time surfing the Internet will have a lower productivity than those without."那些花太多时间上网的人的工作效率将低于那些没有上网的人。可知，花太多时间上网的人工作效率会低，即花太多时间上网会降低工作效率。故选D。

3D printing is becoming more and more popular. We are now able to print things such as clothing, musical instruments and model cars. People and businesses are able to create the things they need very quickly and easily using 3D printers.
But can you imagine printing food Some scientists are trying to create a new dining experience by doing this. They hope that having a 3D printer in the kitchen will become as common as the microwave or the fridge. Scientists say that they are easy to use: you simply have to choose what you want to eat and put the uncooked food ‘inks' into the printer. You can also change the instructions to make the food exactly how you want it. This means that it would be very quick and easy to create tasty and healthy meals.
Using 3D printers to create your meals would also be saving the environment. There would be less need for traditional growing and transporting as food production would be much simpler. Printing food could also help people who are experiencing the swallowing disorder. They could make the printer to print softer foods so that they would not have trouble swallowing them.
However, some people think that a future of 3D-printed food would cause many problems. It could take away many jobs, including those for growing and transporting food. Likewise, traditional cafés and restaurants might lose business. Also, people are worrying about whether the printed food is nutritious: Is it really possible to get the nutrients we need from foodbased inks What's more, cooking and eating together with family and friends has long been a traditional and enjoyable activity. It is hard to imagine a world where the pastime of cooking is dead and meals can be created at the touch of a button.
26．Which of the following best describes 3D food printing
A．Quick and easy. B．Impossible and failed.

【点评】本题考点涉及细节理解，段落大意和标题归纳三个题型的考查，是一篇科技类阅读，首先要仔细阅读短文，掌握大意，然后结合具体的题目，再读短文，从中找出相关信息，就可以确定正确答案。
26．考查细节理解。根据第二段中的"This means that it would be very quick and easy to create tasty and healthy meals."这意味着它将是非常快速和容易制作美味和健康的食物)"可推知，3D食品打印简单快捷。故选A。

Surfing the Internet for fun will make you a better employee, according to an Australian study.
The University of Melbourne study shows that people who use the Internet for their own reasons at work are about 9 percent more productive (有效率的) than those who do not. Study author Brent Coker said "Surfing the Internet at times helps increase an employee's attention."
"People need to relax for a bit to get back their attention," Coker said on the university's website." Having a short break, such as a quick surfing of the Internet, helps the mind to rest itself, leading to a higher total Internet attention for a day's work, and as a result, increase productivity (生产效率)," he said.
According to the study of 300 workers, 70 percent of people who use the Internet at work surf the Internet for their own reasons during office hours. Among the most popular surfing activities are searching for information about products, reading online news, playing online games and watching videos." Firms spend a lot of money on software to block their employees from watching video, using social networking sites or shopping online," said Coker. "That's not always a good idea."
However, Coker said the study looked at people who surfed the Internet in moderation (适度), or were on the Internet for less than 20 percent of their total time in the office. "Those who spend too much time surfing the Internet will have a lower productivity than those without." he said.

3D printing is becoming more and more popular. We are now able to print things such as clothing, musical instruments and model cars. People and businesses are able to create the things they need very quickly and easily using 3D printers.
But can you imagine printing food Some scientists are trying to create a new dining experience by doing this. They hope that having a 3D printer in the kitchen will become as common as the microwave or the fridge. Scientists say that they are easy to use: you simply have to choose what you want to eat and put the uncooked food ‘inks' into the printer. You can also change the instructions to make the food exactly how you want it. This means that it would be very quick and easy to create tasty and healthy meals.
Using 3D printers to create your meals would also be saving the environment. There would be less need for traditional growing and transporting as food production would be much simpler. Printing food could also help people who are experiencing the swallowing disorder. They could make the printer to print softer foods so that they would not have trouble swallowing them.
However, some people think that a future of 3D-printed food would cause many problems. It could take away many jobs, including those for growing and transporting food. Likewise, traditional cafés and restaurants might lose business. Also, people are worrying about whether the printed food is nutritious: Is it really possible to get the nutrients we need from foodbased inks What's more, cooking and eating together with family and friends has long been a traditional and enjoyable activity. It is hard to imagine a world where the pastime of cooking is dead and meals can be created at the touch of a button.
