五、阅读理解、完形填空题(共5道小题) 41.
Lately, more and more singles are turning to the Internet for better dating opportunities. The process of an online relationship, however, is very different from the real-life dating process. The online environment is, by its very nature, restrictive.
Trish met a man online, and the online relationship quickly blossomed into an intense, intimate encounter. She had lied in the beginning of the relationship by understating her own weight by 150 pounds. When he asked for her picture a week later, she worried about her lie, and sent a picture of a slimmer woman instead. In her mind, however, he would come to accept her physically once he fell in love with her soul. A few weeks passed, and the relationship intensified. He arranged to fly to meet her. She felt confident that her lie would be forgiven if she confessed in person. However, the woman he met was nothing physically that she had led him to imagine. He walked away angrily and refused to speak to her again. Trish blamed society’s focus on beauty, not willing to realize that she had cheated him.
Amy, a friend of mine, was involved in an online romance for several months with Jed, a man who lived in another state. Their relationship included lengthy and intimate phone conversations. They genuinely cared for each other, and spent time supporting one another through difficult li fe decisions. From their perspectives, they shared an intimate and loving relationship. When she suddenly became ill and hospitalized, I relayed messages to him, until he was able to contact her in her hospital room. They soon began discussing the possibility of living together.
Problems occurred when they met for the first time. My friend complained that the spark that they shared online no longer existed in real life. Once completely charmed, they now easily annoyed each other. After sharing their feelings and troubles for three months, they became total strangers face-to-face. Realizing that they had crossed intimacy boundaries, it was uncomfortable to assume even a friendly relationship. [共5题]

[第五单元]; 第5小题： A 主旨题。 文中提到Amy的生病促使二人感情的升温，遂决定一起生活，但问题也随之而来，引发诸多矛盾，再次见面已形同路人。作者稍后评论说―一个想在网上结识未来伴侣的人也必须作好在现实生活中与之见面的准备。毕竟，人是生活在真实世界中。仅仅通过屏幕和键盘去彻底认识另一个人是不可能的‖。由此可见，二人的故事告诉大家网恋在现实中是很难生存的，大家应谨慎行事。

Who would want to build a virtual house on the Internet? Or spend hours online each week l
iving inside a make-believe world? It sounds crazy, but thousands of video game enthusiasts do just that.
Online worlds are becoming more popular than ever. Many people have belonged to these online worlds for years. Inside these imaginary worlds, video gamers develop characters over time. These characters learn skills, fight battles, build relationships, and even own property. Some communities inside these online worlds have several hundred thousand citizens!
The people role-playing in online worlds buy and sell things with virtual money. Many gamers earn virtual money by running successful tailor shops and weapons dealerships in their online worlds. Money and treasures can also be taken from victims in battle—it’s a dangerous virtual world out there!
But gaining virtual wealth can be too time-consuming for the gamer who wants to buy his castle now. Serious game addicts have begun doing something the online world designers probably never imagined.
Some gamers are exchanging real-world money to buy virtual money and property for their online worlds. Using online auction sites such as eBay.com, gamers buy and sell whatever they need. A whole mini-economy has grown around this trade of goods.
Some of the most valuable items for sale in online worlds aren’t cheap. Sometimes they are rare, which makes them even more valuable. For example, consider a nice virtual house in a prime location. This property might cost as much as a new TV set in the real world!
For the person who doesn’t participate in these online worlds, the appeal must seem peculiar. What’s the attraction with these online worlds? Why would people spend money on something that doesn’t really exist?
The money being exchanged for those online swords and castles is real. The swords and castles aren’t. Absurd? Maybe. But the time and effort spent by the players is real. So is their love for online worlds. It seems only the human imagination can make something out of nothing! [共5题]

Mrs. Wilson, a Cree Indian in her sixties, was looking for a home to rent. She heard that one was available in an ideal location, close to the Calgary core.
Mrs. Wilson and her daughters went to look at the house. Sure enough, there was a ―For Rent‖ sign in the window. A woman next door told them that the owner was Antonio Pompei, who owned a bakery farther up the street.
Mrs. Wilson has great difficulty walking for she is almost blind, so she waited in the car while her daughters went along to the bakery. The daughters met Mr. Pompei, who agreed to rent the house. However, the daughters wanted to see the inside of the house before they agreed to rent it. One of the bakery employees went with them to the house, where he met Mrs. Wilson. All three women liked the house and returned to the bakery to tell Mr. Pompei that they would rent it.
When Mr. Pompei saw Mrs. Wilson, he quickly walked out of the bakery. He had not realized Mrs. Wilson was Indian. Her daughters look more like their father, who is of a different ethnic
