Motor-cars cover a hundred miles in little more than an hour, aircraft cross the world a day, while computers operate at lightning speed. Indeed, this love of speed seems never-ending. Every year motor-cars are produced which go even faster each new computer boasts（吹嘘）of saving precious seconds in handling tasks.All this saves time, but at a prick. When we lose or gain half a day in speeding across the world in an airplane, our bodies tell us so. We get the uncomfortable feeling known as jet-lag; our bodies feel that they have been left behind in another time zone. Again, spending too long at computers results in painful wrists and fingers. Mobile phones also have then danger according to some scientists; too much use may transmit harmful radiation into our brains, a consequence we do not like to think about. However, what do we do with the time we have saved? Certainly not relax, or so it seems. We are so accustomed to constant activity that we find it difficult to sit and do nothing, or even just one thing at a time. Perhaps the days are long gone when we might listen quietly to a story on the radio, letting imaginations take us into another world.There was a time when some people’s lives were devoted simply to the cultivation of the land or the care of cattle. No multi-tasking there; their lives went on at a much gentler pace, and in a familiar pattern. There is much that we might envy about a way of life like this. Yet before we do so, we must think of the hard tasks our ancestors faced; they farmed with bare hands, often lived close to hunger, and had to fashion tools from wood and stone. Modern machinery has freed people from that primitive existence.68. The new products become more and more time-saving because  _________.       .A. our love on speed seems never-ending    B. time is limitedC. the prices are increasingly high         D. the manufacturers boast a lot69.

What is the author’s attitude towards the modern technology?A. Critical  B. Objective   C. Optimistic    D. Negative71. What does the passage mainly discuss?A. The present and past times   B. Machinery and human beingsC. Imaginations and inventions   D. Modern technology and its influence1、【文章大意】 现代科技发明以惊人的速度提高着人们的生活，但同时也带来了一些负面影响。那我们该如何利用发明节省下来的时间？这正是本文作者想要告诉我们的。68. 〔解析〕选A. 细节理解题。根据第一自然段“ Indeed, this love of speed seems never-ending.”可知A项正确。69. 〔解析〕选B细节理解题。根据后文提到的“when we might listen quietly to a story on the radio, letting imaginations take us into another world.”可知是那种生活简单的日子。70. 〔命题立意〕推理判断题〔解析〕选B.一方面作者对于现代发明给人们带来的便利予以肯定，另一方面又承认了它的负面影响，所以作者的观点是中立的、客观的。71. 〔解析〕选D. 主旨大意题。本文主要讲述了现代发明提高了人们的生活以及人们该如何处理它所带来的负面影响，故选D。 **************************************************************结束   单选题21.
