“People are ruder today because they are rushed and more ‘time poor’ than ever before，” says Patsy Rowe “ Manners _ have _ fallen _ off _ the _ radar( 雷达 ) ． ” Due to our strong attraction to electronic equipment it is a wonder more people don’t wake up each morning and greet the singing birds with a complaint(抱怨)about the noise. Here are some examples of rudeness.

Some people prefer to do almost everything over the Internet. To them dealing with an actual human is like an evolutionary step backward. It feels very slow because humans don’t work at 4G speeds. When you have dinner with friends you will often notice someone paying more attention to his mobile phone. We have programmed ourselves to think that every new message brings life-changing news so taking calls and checking our texts are more important than talking to the people we are with. What is worse some people even tend to send anonymous(匿名的) rude messages by email.

However rudeness is never acceptable. Don’t assume it is OK to be rude if the person you’re in touch with won’t recognize you. If you have something awful to say have the courage to face the person and say it write a letter or email and sign it or forget it. Upsetting people with unsigned messages is cruel and disgusting.

We shouldn’t blame technology for our shortcomings. Technology is here to help us，but we should not allow it to take over our lives. An important step is acknowledging our shortcomings. People spend a lot of time pointing out bad manners but it would be even more helpful if we’d publicly acknowledge good manners when we see them.

68．What can be inferred from the underlined sentence in Paragraph 1?

A．People can tell good from bad behavior.

B．Radar is able to observe human behavior.

C．People care little about their behavior.

D．Radar can be used to predict human behavior.

69．Some people are less willing to deal with humans because ________．

A．they are becoming less patient

B．they are growing too independent

C．they have to handle many important messages

D．they have to follow an evolutionary step backward

70．The author thinks sending unsigned awful messages is ________．

A．ridiculous   B．disgusting

C．acceptable   D．reasonable

　　

答案

C A B

　　

解析：

【要点综述】 科技的发展改变了人们的生活方式。许多人变得冷酷无礼了，他们不愿意与别人交流，整天宅在家里上网。

68．C　句意理解题。根据第一段“People are ruder today because they are rushed and more ‘time poor’ than ever before”可知，“现在的人变得更加没有礼貌”，而画线句是对该句作补充说明的，意思是“现在的人们不注意自己的行为举止(礼貌行为用雷达都探测不到)”，故选C。

69．A　推理判断题。根据题干中“less willing to deal with humans”定位到文章第二段中第二、三句内容。由此可知，有些人不愿意跟人打交道是嫌人太慢(feels very slow)，达不到4G速度(don’t work at 4G speeds)。也就是说，这些人变得缺乏耐心。故选A。

70．B　细节理解题。根据题干中“unsigned awful messages”定位到第三段最后一句“Upsetting people with unsigned messages is cruel and disgusting.”。由线索定位中的句子可知，发一些不署名的恶俗信息很令人厌烦。
