He clicked out words on his computer keyboard.I, therefore, managed to get an E-mail box as soon as the opportunity came. My life changed.E-mail, and all online communication, is something trul
39、y different. It has capabilities that few other products can match.E-mail is convenient. It takes less time with its fast speed and 24-hour connection. The slow postal service is no match. If you wouldnt want to have a face-to-face talk with your manager, you might talk with him through E-mail even
40、if you are in the same office. Naming all the good things about online communication is not easy. But wait. E-mail can be inconvenient. It can waste time and energy. Just think what may happen when you take a short vacation and return to find your E-mail box filled with 200 unread messages. You coul

47、articipate（参加）in a growing number of sports and games. This has not always been the case, however. In fact, women have not been as active in sports as men. Only in recent years have women begun to catch up to men in this area. Until the twentieth century, women did not often participate in sports. P
48、art of the explanation for this is that women simply did not have time. Many women cooked, cleaned, and took care of children. They were so busy that they did not have time for sports. A second reason, especially in the late nineteenth century, is that a womans image（形象）at that time was one of frail
49、ty, illness, and delicacy. In the Victorian era（时代）, people thought that it was unladylike for a woman to be involved in any sports activity. There have been changes in both the view of women in the modern world, and also changes within the world of sports. These changes have allowed many more women
50、 to participate in sports. The general view of women has changed substantially since the Victorian era. Women are no longer considered delicate. People do not think it is unladylike for a woman to compete in sports. Women who win in sports activities are highly regarded. Many women now take part in
51、ports and games of many different kinds, and enjoy doing so. This development is partly the result of a change in the image of women in the modern world. Women also are more active in sports now because of two changes in sports. First, in the early twentieth century, women began to compete regularly
52、 in the Olympics. Also, the number of events for women in the Olympics has been growing quite steadily. The fact that women can compete in the Olympics encourages many to become active in the various Olympic activities. In more recent years, television has had a noticeable effect on both the popular
53、ity of and participation in womens professional sports. Seeing women in professional sports on TV has made certain sports much more popular among women, as amateurs and as professionals.69. Which of the following is not considered as the image of women in the Victorian era? A. Weakness. B. Illness.
54、C. Delicacy. D. strength.70. What causes many more women to participate in ports now? A. More free time. B. Changes in the view of women and in the world of sports. C. Television.D. Both a and b.71. Nowadays if a woman wins in sports activities she is considered _.A. to be rude B. to be respectable
55、C. to be unladylike D. to be impolite EA German taxi-driver, Franz Busman, recently found his brother who was thought to have been killed twenty years before. While on a walking tour with his wife, he stopped to talk to a workman. After they had gone on, Mrs. Busman said that the workman was closely
56、 like her husband and even suggested that he might be his brother. Franz laughed at the idea, pointing out that his brother had been killed in action during the war. Though Mrs. Busman knew this story quite well, she thought that there was a chance in a million that she might be right. A few days la
57、ter, she sent a boy to the workman to ask him if his name was Hans Busman. Needless to say, the mans name was Hans Busman. And he really was Franzs long-lost brother. When the brothers were reunited, Hans explained how it was that he was still alive. After having being wounded towards the end of the
58、 war, he had been sent to hospital and was separated from his unit. The hospital had been bombed and Hans had made his way back into Western Germany on foot. Meanwhile, his unit was lost and all records of him had been destroyed. Hans returned to his family house, but the house had been bombed. Gues
