Is your schoolbag too heavy to bear? The e-schoolbag will free you from the weight.
It is said that e-schoolbags are going to be brought into use in Chinese middle schools soon. An experiment with several hundred e-schoolbags will begin in seven cities: Beijing, Shanghai, Dalian, Shenzhen, Chongqing, Taiyuan and Shijiazhuang. And the e-schoolbags are going to cover all over China if the experiment shows to be successful. In fact, the e-schoolbag should perhaps be called an e-notebook. It is a small hand-held computers for school students.
Heavy schoolbags have long been a serious problem for school students. The average schoolbag of middle school students weighs up to 5 kilos. But the e-schoolbag will change everything. It is much lighter than a usual schoolbag, weighing under 1 kilo.
Also, it is no bigger than a usual book, but it can still hold all the things for study, such as a textbook, a notebook and exercise book. They could be made into chips that are as small as a stamp. The students can read the text page by page on the screen. They can still take notes using a special electronic pen. If they want to know the meaning or the pronunciation of a new word, or even e-mail their teachers, it’s just a press of a button.
In some foreign countries, it is becoming common. But it is hard to tell when people will receive this new form of study. Some say that e-textbooks can easily be broken, some say that it is not good to students’ eyesight to look at the screen for long. But only time will tell. （ ）71.The e-schoolbag has many functions EXCEPT ________.
A. It can pronounce the words. B. It can send e-mails. C. It can be used as a dictionary. D. It can phone somebody.
（ ）72.Which of the following statement is TRUE?
A. All the students in China will use this new schoolbag. B. We can do a lot of work based on the programmes of the chips. C. The e-notebooks are very perfect.
D. We will not make notes because the e-notebook can make all by itself.
（ ）73.Which of the following can be the general title of the passage?
A. An Experiment In China
B. Please Change Your Schoolbag D. Chips
C. A New Invention, A New Schoolbag
