第9题：
问答题Some people say that computers are making the world lonely and dehumanized. What is your opinion? State your opinion in no less than about 160 words, and write it on the Answer Sheet.正确答案：
Many people hold that computers are making the world lonely and dehumanized. I could hardly agree with them and I believe that the benefits brought by computers outweigh their defects.
First of all, computers make our lives more convenient than that of before, especially in communication. Chatting on line is much cheaper than talking on telephone and quicker than writing letters.
What’s more, computers enrich our lives and broaden our horizon greatly. We are able to get access to news and other useful information all over the world even when we stay at home. At the same time, listening to music or watching movies on line is such a pleasure.
Last but not least, the computer has become an indispensable tool of the modern society. Now we have business on line, bank on line, we even shop on line. With computers, we can handle complicated data, which was considered impossible by human beings in the past.
In sum, though computers might bring us certain negative effects, they benefit us a lot. Used in an appropriate way, computers could be of great help.

Dpace
正确答案： D解析：
句意：城市里的很多老人发现他们不能适应快速发展的城市生活。rate最常见的词义为“率”。inflation rate通货膨胀率。speed“速度”，at a speed/a rate of 100 km an hour以每小时100公里的速度，在该搭配中，rate和speed同义。step意为“脚步”，walk with slow steps行走缓慢。only a few paces/steps away只几步之遥，这里的pace和step可替换。the pace of life生活的节奏，是固定搭配。故答案为D。 -
