Then the train asked another engine, and another, only to hear excuses and be refused.Hopelessly, the train asked the little engine to draw it up the grade (坡道) and down on the other side. “I think I can，”puffed (喘气) the little engine, and put itself in front of the great heavy train. As it went on, the little engine kept bravely puffing faster and faster, “I think I can. I think I can. I think I can.”As it neared the top of the grade, which had discouraged the larger engines, it went more slowly. However, it still kept saying, “I think I can. I think I can.”And actually it could. Because of its hard work and determination, the little engine achieved what much bigger engines could not. The engines heart was filled with the joy of achievement. “I thought I could. I thought I could，” it said.This is a very famous story. Dont you love the brave little engine?

By telephone, you have to call every single friend one by one. But text messaging allows you to send the same message to as many people as youd like, which saves a lot of time.”Email, IM, and other lowcost methods of communication also help people keep longdistance friendships in ways they couldnt have even a few years ago.Mike told us，“I had this friend when I was 8 or 9, and then she moved away to the country. We promised to stay friends and to send letters, and at the start we did. Then the letters got fewer and fewer and we at last stopped writing to each other. I think if we had had email, we would still be in touch.”James found out about cost the hard way. He said, “I called my friend in New Zealand, which is halfway around the world, and it cost me over $200! So now I just stay up late to see if I can catch him on MSN or I write an email.”Email, IM, and other lowcost ways of keeping in touch also allow people to develop brief acquaintances (与人相识) into longlasting friendships. Andrea told us, “I met this really cool girl. We sometimes email each other. Weve been in touch over half a year and its nice to talk to her.”4What is this passage mainly about?A. Technology has improved greatly.B. Technology can help our social lives.C. Technology keeps faraway friends close.D. Text messages bring advantages to our life.答案与解析B主旨大意题。本文主要是关于科技在社交生活中所发挥的作用，故选B。5How does Julian usually get in touch with a group of friends?A. By emailing them.B. By chatting with them on MSN.C. By sending them text messages.D. By giving them a phone call.答案与解析C推理推断题。依据其次段的If I want to go and see a movie with a few friends, I usually send them text messages.可推断Julian通常是通过发短信的方式跟一群伴侣联系的。6In Mikes opinion, he lost touch with his friend mainly because _.A. they lost interest in keeping in touchB. their friendship was not strong enoughC. they were too busy to write to each otherD. they couldnt use email to keep in touch then答案与解析D细节理解题。依据第四段的I think if we had had email, we would still be in touch.可知Mike把与那位伴侣失去联系的责任归咎到没有电子邮件上。7What does James most probably think of calling his friend in New Zealand?A. Convenient. B. Costly.C. Difficult. D. Necessary.答案与解析B细节理解题。依据第五段的James found out about cost the hard way.以及后文James所说的话，可知他认为给新西兰的伴侣打电话联系花费太高。CIve watched many students spend a lot of time and money on schools and programs that do not work.
