For example, when writing book reports and stories, I use Microsoft Word instead of a pen and paper. That way, after my teacher edits my work, I can go back and make revisions without having to rewrite the whole thing. And Microsoft Word has a spell check! I use it all the time. For English class, we’re reading The Outsiders, by S. E. Hinton. As a prereading assignment, my teacher asked us to research teenage groups on the Inter. I tried Google, Encarta, and Yahoo first, and finally found an article on . For a geography assignment on the United States, I used Encarta to learn about the Mississippi River. I needed to find out how deep the river is, how its widths and depths are different, what states it runs through, and what kind of fish live in it. I used the information to show how the geography of a country affects its economy. For example, the river’s trade paths, the number of fish caught in it, and the tourists it attracts directly affect Southerners’ jobs and ines. I never go to the library to do research. It takes too much time. Since I live in New York City and both my parents work, getting to the library isn’t always easy. For a big assignment or research project, I’d have to stay at the library to read, or sign out whatever books or magazines I needed. Being able to find the information in my own living room makes everything a lot simpler. Online dictionaries and encyclopedias also save time. Sometimes, I think the puter spoils (寵壞 ) my generation because it’s so easy—at least physically. But puters are not like television, which does the thinking for you. You still have to use your mind. I prefer using a puter. Easy, fun, and fast. 1． What does the writer use Microsoft Word to do? ______________________ Missing person information Name: Jimmy (1) Date of birth: (2) 13th, 1968 Address: …… Telephone: (3) Job: (4) Appearance: …… When last seen: Thursday (5) Where last seen: …… 2． What tools did the writer use to do his geography assignment? ______________________ 3． Why does the writer never go to the library to do research? ______________________ 三、書面表達（共 14 分） 根據(jù)題目所提出的具體要求，寫出一篇連貫完整的短文。 Computer and I _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ _________________________________
