  1. Questions 31-33
    Choose the correct letter, A, B or C.
    31 What impact does Marc Prensky believe that digital technology has had on young people?
    • A It has altered their thinking patterns
    • B It has harmed their physical development
    • C It has limited their brain capacity

    答案:A It has altered their thinking patterns

    原文定位:process information differently from previous generations

    同义替换:「believe」↔「argues」,「have had on young people」↔「have changed in fundamental ways;evolving differently;process information differently from previous generations」

  2. 32 “Digital immigrants” tend to access computers
    • A using their native language
    • B less efficiently than young people
    • C for less important information

    答案:B less efficiently than young people

    原文定位:Just as those who learn a second language often retain their foreign accent, the immigrants are usually, in varying degrees, not quite as effective at speaking the digital language as the natives are. For example, they're more comfortable finding phone numbers using a phone book or looking up information in an encyclopedia rather than using the Internet as a primary source of information

    同义替换:「tend to」↔「usually;are more comfortable」,「access computers」↔「speaking the digital language」

  3. 33 What example is given of having a “digital accent”?
    • A having less effective typing skills
    • B doing things the old-fashioned way
    • C being unable to understand instructions

    答案:B doing things the old-fashioned way

    原文定位:Basically, people with a digital accent have never really stopped relying on their original non-digital means of sourcing information. They prefer doing things as they've always done them without typing something into a computer
